Bulls sign Jannero Pargo: I'll stop mentioning him and Gordon in tandem if you do

On the Wednesday Ben Gordon signed his five-year contract that could be worth up to $60 million with the Pistons, the Bulls signed Jannero Pargo to a one-year deal worth roughly $2 million to try to soften Gordon's loss.
Has anyone ever seen a $60m figure for Gordon's deal? On the Trib's own website they have an AP copy having it at $55m.
Pargo, if he is his usual Pargo self (he was worse than that on his overseas adventure last season), is a decent signing. I guess. It's one year, it's for the LLE, not much can be expected. But with the Bulls so close to the luxury tax seemingly inconsequential moves like this matter a lot. So why the rush to use what little room was left?
Sam Smith (who says $58m for Gordon, what the hell?) makes this case:
Although it was possible higher level free agents might have slipped through the cracks without offers and become available later in the summer, the Bulls apparently decided to go with Pargo as a solid scorer and big shot maker who was familiar with the team and a personality who would fit well off the court as well. The team is believed to have talked with several free agent guards, though most wanted more money than the $1.99 exception. Apparently, the Bulls decided not to risk losing one of the players they were interested in, like Pargo, while waiting for someone of perhaps a higher value to end up without a contract later in the summer.
Well, that's just full of odd implications.
Why would the Bulls be especially interested in Pargo? If one can't get worked up over the signing one way or the other, why do it now? Like Sam gleefully pointed out in a piece he wrote earlier in the week, all sorts of free agents will be taking less money than expected this year as the offseason drags on.
I hope the reasoning behind not 'losing out' on Pargo isn't because such a signing could make us think we're getting the value version of Gordon. Someone who not only was 'familiar with the team' but who fans were familiar with as well.
Hey fans, remember his hot shooting nights, including the heartbreaking playoff loss to the Wizards in '05?!?!
I more remember Pargo for the term 'Pargo Time', a point in a Bulls game where Skiles would basically use Pargo as his hail mary pass before entirely giving up. Extra-small ball. It sucked.

Iverson
would not have signed for only one year

yes he would've
Both Memphis and Miami are only talking to him about 1-year deals. The breaker is the money. He wants the MLE, the Bulls could’ve only offered the LLE.

honestly
for a 1 year, 2million$ deal, im happy with this move. Pargo is a free shooter, and a good 4th guard, he can play both the one and the 2, on the ball and off the ball. Hes not a savior, hes a 2mil player, and theres only so much u can get for that. You know what he’s bringing and im ok to pay him that for 1 year. If he sucks, oh well, if he doesnt, then worth it.

What if Hinrich or Salmons or Rose get hurt?
Wouldn’t be better to have Roberson and room to sign a veteran, just for this case? Is that “worth it?”

What does this mean?
And don’t tell me what to do or not do. They signed a low-level guard at low-level salary. I would have preferred they wait out the market a bit more to see how the “prices” fall, but Pargo is competent. He was decent in NO two years ago.

What this tells me....
If the Bulls looked for a 1 year plug at SG then they are putting all of their stock into getting a SG in 2010. That is the only reason I can see that they would pass on players like Wafer or McCants. The Bulls don’t want a young player under contract for more than one year when their main target is going to be SG in 2010.
Why Pargo and why so fast? I’m guessing the Bulls knew that Pargo would take a 1 year contract. With his ability to come off the bench and score it would be just fine for one season. So that’s why he was the priority because of the length he would accept.
We did need a SG and now it looks that the Bulls are set on making Salmons the starter at that spot for at least one year. I still would have targeted Wafer and a player named Brandon Bass.

basically, this signing get s a “Meh” from me… it shouldn’t have much impact on the wins and losses… no matter who we signed.
It would have been a more interesting day if we had found a way to be part of that Dallas deal for Marion that was reported Here: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4314637 I guess we were part of the original deal, offering TiT, but they must have found a better offer.

My guess is that they're swinging for the fences
and going for Bosh and Wade. While I hope it works, we all know what generally happens to baseball players who always swing for the fences…
by kozzer on Jul 9, 2009 8:17 AM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Plan A: Wade and Bosh
Unless the Boozer thing happens then it’s Wade and Bosh/ or Boozer. This all depends if Bosh stays or not and how Boozer does/is willing to sign for.
If Wade stays in Miami it’s Johnson and Bosh/or Boozer.
But the Bulls are going to swing at the fences for Wade if he’s a FA in 2010.

I think the idea is signing one, then getting the other to sign-and-trade
Sending Lieutenant Kirk and filler back to the lucky club. If the second is wade, then Kirk and Salmons after a reasonable re-up might be good enough.

It reads that way
but what I mean is Wade + Bosh and if Bosh resigns with the Raptors or we make a trade for Boozer he would replace Bosh in that equation.

I see *no* evidence that they will try to sign 2 FAs
At this point, they will be lucky to have room for 1 max contract — right now it looks like they may have to shed more salary to get to that point.
To have room for 2 max contracts they would have to move Deng and lose Salmons (or Kirk).

It's a micro-level signing of Kirk or Deng or drafting "high-character" players
The Bulls are a very risk-averse organization. I think signing Pargo and doing it now instead of waiting is just another example of that.

this is one of my largest complaints about the bulls recently
by going for “comfort” and wily ol veterans like pargo, they miss out on what the rockets have been able to do lately, which is find young talent that can actually contribute and become an asset off the scrap heap. lowry, landry, wafer, hayes, etc. these guys aren’t all stars, but they’re young and can actually contribute. we instead keep going for the pargos and linton johnsons, who can’t contribute (unless you consider pargo’s volume shooting and volume missing a contribution).

Our base of young talent's been better
Rockets had Yao and TMAC sure injury prone as they were, but they’d be nowhere without either the past several years…..
We didn’t have a Yao or TMAC, that’s the difference.

They've still done a good job of accumulating depth at key positions
Ultimately, if their best players continue to get injured then it doesn’t mean much, but I’m impressed with how they continue to put role players in a position to succeed, whereas the Bulls expect mediocre players to have career seasons to make the playoffs.

you're missing my point
our base of young talent has come from the top 10 picks in the draft— rose, deng, tyrus, noah, BG, kirk. the rockets havent been in the lottery in years, yet they keep bringing in young guys who can actually contribute to fill out their bench, while we’re content to bring back pargo and linton for the 4th time.

On a team whose best players are veterans.
I would agree…On a team whose two players will be second and third year players respectfully, then it makes sense to fill the bench with vets…

if the veterans can play that's one thing
but if they cant those spots should go to younger, cheaper, better players. plus, we aren’t that young; shouldn’t kirk and miller and salmons be able to fill whatever nebulous “veteran experience” factor is needed??
by Calogero on Jul 9, 2009 2:37 PM CDT up reply actions 1 recs
following up my previous point
while our young talent has been top 10 picks, their young guys/ bench filler are coming via the 2nd round and unsigned free agents— and the guys they take can actually play. our bench filler recently have been the likes of a-drain and linton. every roster spot matters, and if your 10th 11th and 12th men can be cheap, effective youngsters instead of slightly higher priced, completely worthless veterans, that’s a big help.

If it was past 1 year
I’d be crying foul, but for 1 year as a backup to Salmons for those ridiculous 2 minute bunch shooting and sometimes bunch scoring that Pargo offers, why not. It’s not nearly as bad a signing as the rep here, esp for the $2M tag…..
It’s a stopgap, but so what, we don’t have a lot of wiggle room without jeopardizing next year…..
I actually liked the flurries Pargo would put on for us at times….granted he was used a bit too much as an excuse for Skiles to take some play calls off, but so be it.
He’s not a terrible signing at all….
Not a BG replacement by any stretch, which is probably the reason for the ire, but oh well, hopefully we can replace BG by next year (and still look on the Kirk and Tyrus Thomas for Odom trade this year….since Lamar and the Lakers aren’t close in negotiations)…

i'm glad you brought up the "sugar rush"
i was high on Odom in the draft, wanted him instead of Brand, and though Odom has come up small in plenty of big spots, he still has one of the most unique skill sets in the league and actually was a huge contributor to the Lakers’ title this year. i think that is the one move they can make this offseason that i would consider a splash for us bulls fans. i think the heat might be looking at Odom as well. he did well the one year he was down here. so they should get a move on and make it happen before a conference opponent thats kinda on par with us at the moment snags him.

Dumbest quoted part of the KC article "Pargo... was familiar with the team"
How is he familiar with the team? since he played here back in 2006, the entire coaching staff has changed, all the players but two have gone (and one of them had his name changed to “Kurt”… does Pargo know that?) and hey, they ostensibly have a new GM.
Hey Pax, what’s new? Well, you now have to play even less defense than you did last time you were here.

Heh... I don't see any obvious connections but Forman became director of player personnel on Jan 27, 2004
And they signed Pargo up on March 15, so maybe Gar had a woody for him from way back. Given that Gar’s filled other recent posts by tapping old friends- Randy Brown and Taj Gibson being a Tim Floyd guy – who knows. He certainly doesn’t appear to be expanding his network.

There's really nothing here on that front
The Bulls are just loyal to some and complete dicks to others. There is no rhyme or reason to it.
Wasn’t Pargo getting better, multiyear offers last Summer before globetrotting to Putingrad? His agent said Pargo’s overseas experiment was just for one season. He reportedly made between 3.5 and 3.8 million after taxes. The Hornets were trying to lock him up, but I don’t seem to recall a dollar figure although we knew it was 2-3 years.

this is not negative
There are too many negative things about this signing. Pargo is NOT going to do what Gordon did, so those of you who are so down about this need to get over that. You have to take this for what it is. He will be able to score in bunches, play a litttttle D, and really just try to spark the offense when needed. With Ben leaving we have a ton of cap space for the following year. Would you rather have…
A. Gordon for 5 more years @ an average of say 11mil per season AND not having a lot of cap space to get players that could turn the team into a championship contender (something that Gordon could not do)
B. Sign Pargo to a 1 year deal @ 2 mil AND have a ton of cap space to sign multiple players in a year to turn the team into a championship contender
I would take B. It wasn’t like last (regular) season was awesome with BG, so we just gotta hope players (and the damn coach..is he a coach?) can develop enough to just make the playoffs…just like we did last year.

Based on the NBA projections
we’re actually not going to have that much cap space unless we ditch Tyrus and Kirk as well. If we do that we’re left with: Rose, Noah, Deng, one year of Salmons, some rookies, and some vet filler.

True enough about Miami
but they will have the ability to offer Wade more than anyone else plus bring in another max guy. The Bulls won’t be able to do that under any circumstances that I can see because we don’t have our own free agents to sign.
I hope the roster does change this year. This still could all work out if we get Boozer, trade Hinrich, and not fear the tax. I won’t set myself up for yet another disappointment thought.

Mini backcourt
One reason I was not that sorry to see Ben G go was I was really sick of the Bulls having to adjust to other teams because of the lack of height of our guards. This often resulted in overcompensating with a three guard line-up.
So the Bulls sign a guard who’s shorter than BG and who is actually a worse defender. AARgh!

So what’s the big deal if they get Boozer (before he joins Deng on the injured list) for one year?
always a great contribution.

terrible idea

"...but the devil lives inside this kid, I swear it. It rises out of him in a mist, this baby-faced defiant wrathful version of Pat Kane, escapes his bodily confines to perform satanic miracles all over the offensive zone. The only thing more fearsome than that assist was the keep-in preceding it. The only thing more unholy than his face is his black magic." GMH

‘‘I like the direction our team is going,’’ Del Negro said.
Don’t forget from where he gets paid…
