Bulls 4-0. They haven't beat murderers row. DeRozen is plus in all four games and has shot 8 three pointers in 4 games. It will be interesting to see if a notoriously bad plus/minus player can change this narrative.
Looking at some of the teams getting off to slow starts: OKC, New Orleans, Orlando and Detroit. Wondering if anyone interests you for a salary dump into our trade exception as the year goes on? I think a guy like Terrance Ross will get some sort of asset back for him and not just a dump. Maybe a late first??? OKC doesn't really need to move anyone but they will move anyone if they get value back. Favors would be the only name that sticks out. For New Orleans, Jonas and Josh Hart sticks out if things get bad there. Although do you really want to pay 15 million for two years past this year. I have been a Josh Hart fan but does he move the needle enough for the type of guy we need?
One more thought, Dragic hasn't been lighting up Toronto so far. Toronto has been competitive in each game outside of the first game blowout. He could very well end up in Dallas, but it won't happen until after the trade deadline. It will be interesting to see if Toronto finds a trade partner that needs a backup guard.
