Boozer needs to contract HIV.

Why does Taj Gibson's salary jump to 7.6M next season?

 

[Hurricane Season]

They signed him to an extension after the season started. I'm assuming that's why it doesn't kick in until next year.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Damn that's alot. I'm guessing they don't expect Boozer to still be around lol

"At first when I seen the police, I was like, 'What the hell is going on?'' World Peace said. "I just got finished watching 'Zero Dark Thirty' or whatever that movie is. I'm like, 'I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming. Is there a terrorist in the building? Do y'all need my help?'"
After a brief conversation with the police, World Peace put on his Cookie Monster pajamas and accompanied them outside.

World Peace was shocked by what he saw.
"Like 20 cops' cars are outside, like 10 more police," he said. "My brother had his hands behind his back and [there were] helicopters. The whole Wilshire [Blvd.] was shut down. The street shut down. No cars nowhere."
World Peace said that once the police realized that the suspects were actors, and that their guns were BB guns, the mood lightened.​

lmao

All extensions do that.


They take the current salary, and the year that he is supposed to be an FA, his new contract starts


Gibson would have been a FA at the end of this year

Reggie Rose, brother of Derrick Rose, criticized the Chicago Bulls for being unable to put enough quality players around him to compete for a title.

Reggie Rose, who stated he was speaking for himself, said it could be a "big factor" in whether his brother returns from his ACL injury this season.

"What have you pieced together? Have you made any moves? Have you made any trades to get better? You know all roads to the championship lead through Miami," Reggie Rose said. "What pieces have you put together for the physical playoffs?

"Joakim Noah is a great player. Luol Deng is a great player. But you need more than that.

You have to put together pieces to your main piece.

The players can only do so much. It's up to the organization to make them better."

The Bulls didn't make a move in either direction at the deadline, meaning they will pay the tax for the first time.

Update: Derrick Rose released the following statement through the Bulls.

“I have always felt that the Bulls organization’s goals have been the same as mine and that is to bring another championship to this city.”

[Hurricane Season]

Reggie Rose can go fuck himself. Derrick should know better than to hire family as his manager. Nothing good could ever come of that.

If that is how Derrick himself feels, then he really needs to change his stance on recruiting other star players. Can't have it both ways.

That being said, Reggie Rose isn't wrong, but there was nothing they could have done during the deadline this year. There was nothing available that would have helped the team at all. You don't make a move just to make a move.

 

[elcheato]

rachel nichols is 40 in october
