BULLS land their GUY in 6'7" Off-Guard Richard "RIP" HAMILTON...BULLS now have a NEEDED SCORING THREAT from the PERIMETER to go with POOH ROSE.

I told you a week and a half ago on one of my posts that the DETROIT PISTONS need to FREE RIP and they did. RIP was bought out for a reported $11 million by the PISTONS after he was due to make $19 million over the next 2 SEASONS.

Also RIP had to clear WAIVES as NO TEAM put in a CLAIM for the 32 year old SHOOTING GUARD as expected as the BULLS get their 2 to go with already a nice BACKCOURT with the LEAGUE MVP in it.

What does this mean moving forward for the BULLS...well in the PLAYOFFS that had a glaring weakness at the 2 and they needed more scoring from that SPOT as the 2010-11 NBA MVP had to do too much during the season and it caught up with D-ROSE in the PLAYOFFS vs the HEAT.

Now with RIP on the floor he frees up everyone because of his ability to KNOCK it down from the ARC, one of the best MID-RANGE Games in the NBA, and can finish on the BREAK with the BEST of them because of his knack of hitting the MID-RANGE Shot.

Imagine that BULLS set OFFENSE where D-ROSE is already a PROBLEM and now you add someone like RIP who can also create for other s at time and it will free up LUOL, C-BOOZ 5, and the line-up I can't wait to see is when KORVER is out there with RIP.....3-BALL sponsored by the WEST SIDE of the 'GO.

RIP's BULLS Contract was a reported 3 years $15 Million Deal that supposedly includes a BUYOUT Option for the 3rd year that is a TEAM OPTION.

A little HISTORY on RIP...from COATESVILLE Pennsylvania and took his TEAM his senior year to the STATE TOURNEY in PHILADELPHIA and lost to LOWER MERION HS PENNSYLVANIA led by one KOBE BRYANT. Both RIP and KOBE went on to play in the 1996 McDONALD's ALL-AMERICAN Game that season as RIP was a LATE SIGNEE for JIM CALHOUN and the UCONN HUSKIES and the lead recruiter on RIP was Coach Karl HOBBS who is back with UCONN after a 10 year Coaching stint at George WASHINGTON University.

RIP than went on to the University of CONNECTICUT in STORRS CT and became 2-TIME BIG EAST PLAYER of the YEAR as well as a 1st TEAM ALL-AMERICAN. He also led UCONN to the 1999 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP where the beat a DUKE Team led by SENIOR F Shane BATTIER of BIRMINGHAM (DETROIT MICHIGAN AREA) COUNTRY DAY HS and FRESHMAN Man-CHILD Elton BRAND of PEEKSKILL HS NY.

RIP then was drafted by the WASHINGTON WIZARDS and played there for 3 season where he learned his most valuable NBA lessons under COACH Doug COLLINS and MINORITY WIZARDS OWNER/PLAYER Michael JEFFREY JORDAN. RIP then went onto become a MEMBER of the 2003-04 NBA CHAMPION Detroit PISTONS alongside SHEED, BIG BEN Wallace, DICE, TAY, and Mr.BIG SHOT.

FROM STATS LLC....RIP HAMILTON is one of 4 ACTIVE PLAYERS and 20 NBA PLAYERS total to average at least 20ppg in 120 or more NBA PLAYOFF GAMES.....how 'bout them MY DETRIOT PLAYERS.
