Bulls Make Roster Cuts.

[From the FanShots -ed.]

The Bulls waive Darius Washington and Elton Brown. I was hoping Washington would get a longer look, he is a tough player. I wonder if Roger Powell will make the final cut.

couldn't expect to keep washington

in an already crowded backcourt…

but i can’t understand cutting these guys over ruffin. he hasn’t even played in any of the games! i don’t care if he’s a vet, we don’t need his 2 pts a game, he sucks.

Ruffin isn't on the team to score

we don't need his

4 rebounds in 15 minutes, either.

i agree with your assessment below that brown didn’t look good, but ruffin sucks and has always sucked, and he hasn’t even played in any games for us yet this season.

not that i necessarily disagree with the cuts, but ruffin should be cut too, i’d rather have the empty roster spot, it’s practically more productive than he is.

if someone gets injured

(Gooden, Tyrus, or Noah) he can at least come in and help in that way. Just another big body to have around.

Darius

Looked nice and played better than Hughes…….so far. It’s a shame, but what can you do with too many guards already.

I think Ruffin isn’t a bad 14th or 15th man insurance policy. While he sucks in major minutes, he’s a big body that can at least have some defense in the paint.

With young guys like Noah and Gray expected to log major minutes, it’s nice to have a 3rd option C who can ride the pine as an injury reserve.

He still might get cut

Paxson usually keeps the roster at 14 and Ruffin has a non guaranteed contract.

locker room whatever

he’s not going to play anyway. Though maybe I’m just naive with respect to VDN. Most coaches find a way to play Ruffin when they shouldn’t.
