  1. I like this move. Maybe having a decent backup SF will help woo Melo or LeBron because someone else can play that position and score and give the starting SF some rest. So he can create his own shot, spot up a three, and play decent defense? Can he play SG too?
  2. No room for Afflalo cause the Bulls are getting Love and Melo!
  3. Is it true the US game could get postponed because the pitch is swamped?
  4. Dreaded vote of confidence
  5. Should bring both teams together and have a shootout. Do they still have shootouts even in the championship game?
  6. Yes it is. Melo has clear defensive deficiencies, never been close to a ring, and would be coming to a team that has had tons of success due to defensive prowess. LBJ is undisputed the best in the game. It's like Jordan vs. Iverson. But getting Melo or LeBron is not adding pieces. This isn't getting Grant or Rodman. You are adding superstars. But that's what the league is. You add superstars. And the Bulls, at least, have a team that is very close. It's not like the Knicks who tried to buy a ring with Melo and Amare 4 years ago. It's not even like the Heat, who had 2 straight 1st round exits (after a league worst 2008 season) and weren't really all that close 4 years ago before adding 2 superstars. That's why I don't care about building a team the "right way." The Bulls have drafted well and Thibs has developed players and made castoffs good money. But I'm tired of the old try hard Bulls. Get THE piece already.
  7. Why would Mirotic want to come over if Love is here? He will never start on the Bulls.
  8. Yes it is. Melo has clear defensive deficiencies, never been close to a ring, and would be coming to a team that has had tons of success due to defensive prowess. LBJ is undisputed the best in the game. It's like Jordan vs. Iverson. But getting Melo or LeBron is not adding pieces. This isn't getting Grant or Rodman. You are adding superstars.
  9. Not any more respectful adding Melo than it would be with LeBron. You can have respect or go home in May every year.
  10. It is unreasonable to not want the best player in the game and maybe one day the best ever on your team. Living in Atlanta I've found out they really want choir boys here. They want good clubhouse guys above talent. And that's why they always underachieve.
  11. Does Mirotic have to want to come to the US first or trade just the rights to him?
  12. Greeny said there's a report that LeBron is only interested in 6 teams. Bulls, Clippers not on that list. Yet both he and Windhorst said Chicago is the best fit for him.
  13. It's not like this would be Anthony's last contract either. The 5th year will still be there for him one day.
  14. The Golden State offer supposedly was never on the table, according to some reports. Cause Minnesota probably said no. Golden State just denying.
  15. The Golden State offer is better. But can they sign Love long term?
  16. How much does Rose's injury history factor into Melo's decision?
  17. That...is pretty awesome. Have other coaches done this before? http://mmqb.si.com/2014/06/23/marc-trestman-canada-week-guest-monday-morning-qb/3/ Marc Trestman's teams are not distracted by celloists!
  18. If the Bulls sign and trade for Melo with Boozer, is it all but assured that Melo will get the max and the extra year?
  19. Would be very surprised if Carmelo doesn't come to Chicago now
  20. Can AA plus Melo win it all?
  21. I thought it was 200k a year they were losing on WGN America and 200K a game locally?
  22. Most had the Bulls as favorites for LeBron...and there really was no possibility that LeBron was ever going to come to Chicago right?
  23. Why would the Knicks want to do a sign and trade with Melo for Boozer? It doesn't help them at all. Just let Melo walk.
  24. Because that would make a better team. You can save what, $3-5 million with Deng as opposed to Melo and use that on someone else. You don't understand how the NBA salary cap works. But even if it did work like that Melo is better than Deng and a $3M player. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Enlighten me on the cap
