    CHICAGO BULLS

    Most likely amnesty cut: None

    How likely not to use amnesty this season? Slam dunk

    Amnesty candidates: None

    Analysis: The Bulls, as stated previously, will be interested in the amnesty process when the season starts, but strictly in terms of the players released by other teams. Grantland's Bill Simmons graciously suggested that the Bulls use the amnesty provision on Carlos Boozer to create salary-cap space for the potentially loaded 2012 free-agent class, but sources familiar with Chicago's plans insist that it's not even a consideration.

    Boozer's debut season in Chicago was an undeniable struggle, but the Bulls like the roster they've assembled -- filled with recent free-agent signees and players on their rookie contracts -- and are focused on adding to it. ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard reported earlier this week that Chicago lusts after likely Portland amnesty casualty Brandon Roy, but Roy is a virtual lock to be snagged by a team with cap space.

    its funny that i know people that are hoping to Bulls amnesty Boozer. We obviously have differing opinions, but I never had the energy to argue why it would be a terrible idea. Meh.
