The Case for Keeping Tony Snell

One of the victims of Jimmy Butler‘s “I-am-Leader!” Megatron-mode for the Chicago Bulls this past season may have been Tony Snell.

When Joakim Noah was playing point center or with Derrick Rose kicking out, Snell had plenty of highlight-film moments. He was a decent catch-and-shoot player and a strong, athletic slasher when set up by the point center or the point guard. He could even guard passing lanes fairly well and even locked down LeBron James in the same game where he scored 20+ ponts two seasons ago.
