Fan takes a dive out of the second deck in Arlington
Wilson A2000 replied to Outshined_One's topic in General Baseball Talk
He did fracture his skull. -
Not enough. Allen's not gonna leave the Celtics unless he's getting big money. He's signing with the Celtics for $1M, right? No, but he's not going to leave his comfort zone with teammates he knows, and a coaching staff he knows, for a nominal increase in a chance at a ring. But he goes with Thibodeau who he knows. He left to go to Boston to get a ring once. I wouldn't be surprised if he goes to the Bulls. Plus he would get paid a lot more than the Celtics can offer. Don't forget the almighty dollar.

Regular season wins don't always matter when it comes to the playoffs. Two times in a row Cleveland had a great record and did squat in the playoffs. In the playoffs, Cleveland's lack of secondary options means that a good team will beat them 4/7. This is much harder to do in the regular season. The playoffs are about matchups. Cleveland doesn't match up very well against playoff teams. All I said was I think the Bucks are better than the bulls The Bucks aren't bad. Is Redd going to bet he 2 and Salmons the 3?
-
The 2010-11 NBA salary cap is 58 million. That's 2 million higher than anticipated. The Bulls had enough for two max free agents as it turns out. This leaves the Bulls a little more money to go after Ray Allen with. They wouldn't have to eat as much of Deng's contract if the wanted to trade him.

Cleveland is not a 60-win talent team.
-
Who said anything about 60 wins? I see no reason to think they can't win 50 to 55. They should be in the hunt for a top 4 seed in the playoffs. Right now Boston and Orlando r prob better but other than those 2 I don't see a team clearly better than the Bulls especially if theu get a shooter. You said you'd put them against any other team in the east. That sounds like a 60 win team to me. I'd put the Heat, Celtics, and Magic as better, and the Bulls probably on the same level as the Hawks and Bucks. I would put the Bucks ahead of them as well. A 50-win team in the Celtics dismantled Cleveland this year. Regular season wins don't matter.

They would have to get rid of Deng first to free up some cash. If Boozer is getting 15 million, there is just enough for LeBron to get the max (I think). Granted Allen was at the end of a huge contract last year, but he got $18 million in 2010. I think two years, 20 million would get it done. But Deng would have to be traded and very very little in the form of a player contract would have to come back. The Bulls would have to eat a good portion of Deng's salary. But if the Bulls are all in this offseason, why not?
-
Probably. The stock for the parent company of the Knicks, MSG, was up 6% today.
-
No way he goes to New York. The Nets have a better shot. LeBron isn't going toa team that will be worse than his Cleveland team. And the guy they picked up plays no defense and can't rebound. I don't think LeBron wants to play without that.
-
Get LeBron + move Deng and eat 40% of his salary + sign Allen = Bulls championship(s) Wade and Bosh will be crying in their cristals tomorrow if that occurs. My dream scenario could actually be the perfect situation for the Bulls. If they get LeBron they will almost be forced to move Deng (which is perfect). Boozer is nearly the player Bosh is, but at a little cheaper price. Now they might have a little more money to work with to get Allen, especially if they can get rid of Deng. Plus the Bulls have a better bench than most of the teams out there who gave up a ton to try to land the big boys.
-
What? You're aware that Cleveland was 20 games better than the Bulls last year, right? Rose and Noah are getting better. They will have a low post presence now and most likely a solid 2. Cleveland was built to win in the regular season. I think the Bulls now can beat them in the playoffs. At the very least it is a close series.
-
Where did you find that info?
-
If the Bulls don't get LeBron and wind up with a slightly above average 2 guard, where does that put them in the east? Even if LeBron goes to Cleveland, the Bulls are better. Miami, Boston, Orlando, and Chicago could all take the east.
-
Obviously the LeBron to New York or Chicago rumors abound. I heard that LeBron bought a two-million dollar condo in Chicago and that he changed the address for tax purposes of his foundation/marketing group to IL. Even if LeBron made up his mind, the Boozer signing must be enticing and could change it. The Bulls clearly have the most to offer now when you look at the entire package. If he wants to win, he will go to Chicago.
-
Broussard likes Miami or Chicago for LeBron. He likes Ray Allen thete too.
-
Colin says it's not in Ohio. Reporters from ESPN were sent to multiple cities.
-
Colin Cowherd reporting LeBron's news conference is not in Cleveland. The winning team will get a call from LeBron 5 minutes before. Hopefully the Bulls have something with LeBron. Get Boozer now to sweeten the pot.
-
They actually don't have a bad team. Good for Vinny.
-
How did NY jump ahead of Da Bulls? No way.
-
That'd be especially awesome if he chose Cleveland because they'd pan back http://cohee.name/coastermania/2000/Cleveland_skyline.jpg And no one would have any idea where the hell they were, because it looks like any other crappy Midwest city. Ha very nice.

That sure was freaky to see everyone's reaction to it. I guess he is doing OK all things considered. -
They have orange on the website. Not sure if they always have.
-
Doing an ESPN special would be the PERFECT place to announce a superteam And nobody knows where this is being held yet where it's being held is obviously the big tipoff. I guess I assumed it was in Cleveland. How cool would it be if it was a secret spot. Then they pan the city from afar and you find out then.
-
Dexter, that seems possible but he's not doing an ESPN special in Akron to tell people he is making a superteam in Miami. LeBron is just too loyal.
