    It's going to cost us ~$3.5M to pay him what we owe him. How about we just buy him out? I think we don't need to fill his roster spot.

    Buying him out would let him catch on with a playoff contender, I do believe.

    It would be a GOOD thing to do. Humane.

    We should be starting Marco or Butler and between the two and Nate we have the SG position more than covered. In a pinch we have Daequan Cook, too.

    I don't expect the Bulls to do this, but I like this idea. Belinelli plays better starting then off the bench.

    Actually, he had to be bought out by March 1 to be eligible for someone else's playoff roster. I thought it was this friday when I made the post.
