Remember 10 years ago a disgruntled kid out of central florida was a lottery pick for the Raptors and was packing his bags for free agent summer of 2000 to see where should he go. Now 10 years later and about 17,000 + points later the kid that turned the bulls down and went home to play with O magic has come full circle to want to play for the bulls. Interesting in that the NBA and its fans have been waiting for the summer of 2010 to see the best free agent class ever. Hold on there is one problem, did anyone mention Tracy McGrady as being one of those prized free agents in a list of guys who are before there 30's and in their prime. I know he is coming off Microfracture surgery, which has been performed on the likes of Cwebb, Penny(not LIL'Penny), STAT, JKIdd, and a few others. Some on that list came back with no problem and some as u see no longer had the S on their chest.
So having said all of that, I know T-Mac would be an assett to the bulls from a few perspectives: 1. he is still in my mind a pretty good scorer if not lead scorer on a pretty good team not option 1 but another perimeter scorer the bulls solely lack. 2. Just his presence alone on the court and in the locker room should give an edge to the bulls psyche. 3. 70% T-mac is better than 80% of the Guards in the association.
Whether its Auburndale Fla HS, the now defunct Mt Zion Academy in NC, The Raptors, Magic, or Clutch City, the bulls need to do themselves a favor and say its time to look up in the rafters for #7 and T-mac is a bona-fide piece of the puzzle to get them there.
T-MAC IN WIndy City

T-mac is a #1 playing in a #4's body. I base that on last season when he played with the Knicks but I'd be suprised if the knee improved that much during the off-season. Last year, he would tell the media that he would feel fresh in the beginning of games but once he sat for a little that the knee would get stiff. If the Bulls sign him, it would be in their best interest to keep him under 30 minutes a game.
good observation and as of now the bulls look like they will pass cuz T-Mac thinks he is still as starter. You would think his agent would tell him to come in as a reserve because its not who starts the game but who finishes.
