It's a great summary of the situation. Apparently, ESPN didn't fire all of their last good writers after all.
The difference between last season and the present is that fans seem to be angrier than ever at the lack of direction from within the organization. Stories of longtime season-ticket holders stopping their payments are popping up all the time. The money and loyalty that the Bulls have counted on for decades isn't as Teflon strong as it used to be. There's enough blame to go around throughout the organization after this season, but fans should make sure that Forman and Paxson take the brunt of it.

Obviously, there's not a whole lot fans like you and I can do on this side of the world, except make a symbolic gesture that results in some degree of personal catharsis, but it's good to see some sort of rebellion from fans who are in a position to make a statement with their wallets.

I reckon having a pick and pop bigman (ala Pau Gasol) is a better option to pair up with Butler instead of another wing. He loves eating up most of the possessions. Or perhaps just pick up a non ball dominant wing and pick one between Joe Ingles, James Johnson, or PJ Tucker. It would be awesome if they can nab Otto Porter but he'll be pricy and surely the Wizards will not let him go. Will you lot like it if they'll pursue Paul Millsap (fuck Blake Griffin)? It'll be good if they can pick up Jrue Holiday but it seems they will probably keep Rondo.

Also Niko will come back barring some crazy contract offer and it makes sense to bring back felecio.
Cap guys could check this but I think that leaves them in the neighborhood of $10million to throw at a fa.
