CJ Watson's Future

[Shaun1985]

I've not been in the loop or heard much about the NBA so my bad if this is old news or already been posted..

Was reading some interesting things about Watson's future with the Bulls and what a tough break if it plays out like that. I'm guessing Derrick Rose is going to miss a lot of the season next year and they are looking for a quality starter / backup. Watson only makes 3.4 and I know there is better PGs out there but it seems like a steal for that price. Maybe the playoffs have a lot to do with that but I think Watson would make a pretty decent PG if given a chance and not put in a starter role in the most important game(s) to date.

Either way, he either looks to be traded or to become a free agent again. The article I read was pre draft and had him possible involved in a 4 team trade that would send him to Memphis. Has anyone heard anything about his status in Chicago or any other trade talks?

Love for the Knicks to get him. Bibby and Davis are not any good.

[Shaun1985]

I agree. The Knicks would be a nice fit for him.

Hellz to the yeah bring him to MEMPHIS!

This is all understandable. He is not a starter in the NBA. He's a good role-player, backup point, though. If it doesn't work out for him in Chicago, he's good enough to land on his feet somewhere else. It's business, I'm sure he understands that.

Knicks, Dallas, Phoenix, and Nuggets seem like good fits and in that order from best.

Yeah, it seems like the Bulls aren't going to pick up his option.

I would like to see him in a Lakers jersey it would be a good for with him backing up sessions.

Come to the Celtics Watson!! Be a nice 3 headed monster with him playing next to Rondo and Avery Bradley.

If you ask me the Bulls need to off load Carlos Boozer. Dude's game is lame and he never plays clutch.

Memphis bound, book it

AMEN! The Boozer deal buried that team and they paid the man way to much money.

Considering both are pg im sure he would be Rondos backup. Now If he went to Miami he could battle Chalmers for starter minutes as Id say they are about equal.

Would Miami have the money to pay Watson the kind of money other teams might offer? The big 3 are a huge hit on the cap.

Im not sure. They are trying to lure Ray Allen and even there cant pay what Boston can. I just said Miami instead of Boston for CJ if he wanted an oppurtunity to be as good as starter. I cant stand Rondo but CJ isnt taking his minutes.
