Kings are wack during FA.

I have no idea where this Wade stuff came from... He's met with us twice (three times, if this Bosh and Wade meeting is happening), so I would have to assume he's pretty serious about joining the Bulls. I guess he really is loyal, loyal to his hometown. Maybe the whole time the Big Three (James, Wade, Bosh) was suppose to be in Chicago and not Miami. LOL

The Raptors have basically said they don't want Deng in a S&T, so getting Bosh is unrealistic unless he out right signs.

I never said Deng this time. LOL There was rumor of Taj Gibson and three first round picks for Bosh the other day.

 

[elcheato]

Don't they need to throw in Deng in a S&T? How do salary matches work in S&Ts?

 

[The Young One]

Their in Chicago because bosh and wade have the same agent....and the agent is based in Chicago I believe.

 

[The Young One]

BTW: Lakers have Gerald Green on their SL roster..I hope he can make it.

 

[Mooche]

The Bosh to Chicago talks look real interesting. It would be nice to at least see Bosh and DWade play on the same team.

 

[The Young One]

Thus, league sources said the Bulls have contacted the agents for Mike Miller and J.J. Redick for outside shooting.

Joe Johnson is hesitating to accept a six-year maximum-salary offer from the Hawks because he wants to wait and see what happens with the other top free agents.

Cavs fans are making a fan tunnel that LeBron's car is going to ride by on his way to the IMG building lol

That's one reason, I guess.

Ouch. Kind of a crap situation for the Hawks... but no real surprise. A lot of guys are just waiting to see who goes where and makes the first move.

We got one target all but secured, but now we really need to turn our attention to acquiring a PG, because Amare has yet to play without a playmaker in the league and Id hate that 100mil to goto waste because he isnt producing like he should.

 

[Dorado]

so amare going to the knicks is a for sure??

because i saw yesterday on espn.com that the knicks and amare are close to a deal but i havent heard anything since

 

[Dorado]

sorry for the double post but i also heard that tony parker going to the knicks via trade is a strong possibility

btw anybody have an espn insider pass they would wanna share?

 

[dez]

I think its a done deal, I dont think the numbers being reported are done though, we still want LeBron and we're trying to lock up Amar'e to say "look we got another all-star player for you to team with"

But nothing can be finalized till the 8th I think, this period is just for negotiations, but after his meeting with us in NY im sure things will be finalized, but we need a PG bad, from what I hear CP3 is on the market, and I know its a dream, but I would love to get him to pair with STAT. I saw on realgm.com that we're also trying to get Parker, Idk how well that duo would work but right now Toney Douglas wont cut it.

Thank you. LOL I'm sick or reading about the Knicks core of Danilo Gallinari, Wilson Chandler, and freakin' Toney Douglas. LOL Douglas is a nice backup, definitley not somebody to build around.

 

[Dorado]

if cp3 goes anywhere he gonna follow lebron if he doesnt go to the bulls

Yeah he's a solid player, brings tough D, but at this point in his career he's not starting material.

But tbh I much rather have Deron Williams then CP3, and he's a improved version of Nash imo

I can see David Lee going to the Timberwolves. But with Love and Al Jefferson, where does he fit in the lineup?
