    The Bulls are likely the only significant contender pursuing Allen who do not have a true starting shooting guard.

    Jimmy Butler is slated to start at shooting guard but can play small forward, which would move Mike Dunleavy Jr. to a reserve scoring role where he may be better suited.

    Allen was coached by Tom Thibodeau with the Boston Celtics.

    Meanwhile, Rip Hamilton is fit and tan and ready to go.

    Could be Denny, but he is a SG. We don't have a true SG. We have SF's playing SG and pt guards playing SG's.

    Butler can defend any SG. Once Thibodeau's defense becomes second-nature to Snell, he should be able to defend any SG. Rose and Hinrich can defend many SGs.

    Ray Allen is a "true SG," but I'm not sure he can defend anyone anymore.
