    Heading into the summer of 2017, the Chicago Bulls can only hope for another pleasant surprise.

    A year ago, they weren't expecting to end up with Dwyane Wade in free agency. Wade didn't turn the Bulls into title contenders, and his addition forced the team into a heavy reliance on young players.

    After agreeing to terms with Rajon Rondo last July, the Bulls used what was left of their cap space to sign Wade, and there wasn't much else they could do to improve the roster.

    This year the goal will be to add some pieces, which could conceivably boost the Bulls higher in next year's Eastern Conference standings.

    There aren't any real game-changers to be had and the Bulls will need to replace Mirotic and Joffrey (yes, they can do this by resigning them, but this will further reduce their free agent money pool).

    Free agency will be used as a band-aid. The Bulls need to get something out of their younger players.
