In general, I think it's okay to hang back right now.
EXCEPT: I'm wondering about the Bulls. Suppose they whiff completely on the big FAs. Did they screw up by dumping Hinrich? I guess a lot of people will say he was overpaid (but really? Next to Channing Frye and compared to Joe Johnson?) but he was a key guy for them - they played a lot better with him than when he was out injured. And would they have given him (and their pick - OUR GUY Kevin Seraphin) for basically nothing if they knew they were just going to end up with cap space?
What this is all leading up to is: if we really can get Deng RIGHT NOW, and we want Deng (and I do) - then we need to jump on it before LeBron announces he's staying in Cleveland.
