Gordon, Bulls In No-Win Situation

That’s why when all is said and done, Gordon will likely play the upcoming season with Chicago, although it will create a very awkward situation for either side. If the Bulls really decide to think outside the box and end this feud from their point of view, they would buy out the last year of his contract and allow him to sign somewhere else.

 

This would be a terrible move for Chicago, and he’s too skilled to just be released. But the move could free up plenty of cap room and create a bad situation for Gordon because he will have no negotiating power for teams interested in his services.

 

Until the Bulls or Gordon decide to cave in, this situation will be a stalemate and not benefit anyone. If Gordon really wants to get a fat paycheck next year, he will have to accept losing this negotiation and hope that he does well enough to deserve Deng money with some other team.
