Bulls Offseason Thread

[BCVM22]

What do you suppose the last event was to have both Stephen A. and Ochocinco weighing in?

-Wade came back for a second meeting because he had some questions before commiting

 

- Wanted to know what the Bulls plan on doing

 

- Do they have any trades in the works

 

wade is a spy

 

You know what, that actually could be true. Nice catch.

For who?

[17 Seconds]

well the bulls and heat are competing over the same guys, and with all the cap room for both teams, a lot of what goes down will depend on who signs first and what combos go where. it could be an advantage to know which way the other team is leaning and what they're trying to do.

If he is, the Bulls aren't going to give him the info he desires. GarPax is not stupid, the though had to have crossed their minds.

I hope it wasn't the thought Pax had when he was negotiating with Luol ("give him what he wants").

 

Imagine if Gordon had taken the Bulls original contract offer a few years back. Whew!

is jalen rose at all reputable, or is he another clown? because he just said this on his twitter-

 

Breaking News(rumor has it)FA's Wade/Bosh hv made up their minds to play AGAINST Lebron so don't expect all 3 to play 2gether! WOW.

 

if it's true (and it's probably not), that would be good news.

Why? It could mean that Wade and Bosh go to Miami and LeBron stays in Cleveland.

[SpongeWorthy]

Anyone think Wade and Bosh and whatever the f rest the Heat will have is enough to compete? I guess they'd have some money left over but if you fill it in with just role type players you can see why they would be intrigued about teaming up on the Bulls.

Well they'd still have a lot of cap space left if they signed Wade and Bosh. There's still a pretty good FA class behind the top guys. I do agree the Bulls are in a much much better position though even if we only got 1 guy.

Because that would be the worst case scenario, and that scenario is still 1342x better than all 3 of them teaming up in Miami

So now rumors are breaking news?

lol he already deleted the tweet

[Magnetic Curses]

this is kind of like pro wrestling at this point. bosh and wade are going to come out in nwo shirts and start beating up all of the lesser free agents while lebron disappears, paints himself up like the crow, and then makes ceremonious return swooping in on a zip line to beat the crap out of them with a baseball bat. then, michael jordan will come down and act like he's on lebron's side and then hit him in the back with a chair, leg-drop him a few times while people pelt him with garbage and half-filled beers.

Per Chad Ochocinco:

#breakingnews the homie just gave me the info on where he is going, to bad I can't say but this city is gonna be very happy #6 *wink*

 

Jay Cutler?

What's awesome is I'm pretty sure a scenario like this actually went through my head.

I don't buy Wade's a "spy" theory. What's his endgame? Does he and Riley don't already who the Bulls are covetting? Are they living their lives with their heads in the sand? Did the Bulls not meet with Boozer and Lee on Friday? Did the Bulls not meet up with Bosh on Friday night? Isn't the Bulls interview time still 2:30pm on Saturday? Tell me, what is Wade's endgame for being a spy inside the Bulls org? Wade is not a Bulls employee, thus GarPax would only tell him the rough draft of what they plan to do, so I doubt Wade would get any details about the Bulls plans.

 

This Wade is a spy crap, is pure fantasy, one that needs to stay with the Knicks.

Jay Cutler?

LeBron has said publicly that he is thinking about switching jersey numbers. In fact, he said he thinks everyone in the NBA should stop wearing #23 out of respect for Jordan. If he were to change his number (which he would HAVE to do if he played for the Bulls since 23 is retired) he is going to wear #6, which is his Olympic number. So therefore Ochocinco is saying that James is going to be a Bull. Now, I don't buy that tweet. I just thought it was humorous, so I added it to the thread.

Actually, that's not quite right. He's going to wear #6 no matter where he plays...even if it's Cleveland. He's already filed the paperwork.

i will point out that i heard somewhere that kevin nash was the #2 rated basketball prospect in michigan in like 1976 or 77, right behind magic johnson.

[Magnetic Curses]

i saw that a bucks fan on realgm pointed out that the bulls could trade deng and james johnson to milwaukee for corey maggette and the non-guaranteed contract of darnell jackson, cut jackson, get 3.5 mil in cap space to bring in two max guys, plus they get whatever value maggette brings as a backup.

I like that because it means hanging on to Taj.

and it more than benefits the bucks, too.
