Official Offseason News and Rumors

Gasol to the Bulls. This is great for the Bulls. 1 problem what do they do with Gibson. Gibson wants to be a starter. The good news about Gasol he can also play the 5.

Trade Gibson to the Mavs. I'm sure we could find a spot in the starting lineup for him.

Not quite yet. ESPN is reporting that the Bulls and Lakers are close to a S&T involving Pau. They haven't said what's involved. I assume it would be Boozer and a pick, but who knows?

I have to give the front office a lot of credit. They found someone to take Boozer contract. That is a lot of money the Bulls save. Im so fired up. Bring on Cleveland and Indy.

Maybe now Bosh will take the leadership role on this team.

Both he and Wade, along with UD ( and Beasley)...ok..only kidding on Beas.

He will have to reinvent his game being the #1 option.
Bosh isn't the MOST talented, but he is very talented and very smart.
He's going to be a better version of Raptor Bosh, IMO.

If Rose is healthy they're the top seed out East

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Now Bulls go after lance. Have a line up of
Rose
Lance
Butler
Gasol
Noah

WOW

Stay healthy, and add a couple shooters and that is EC championship material.

Agree we still have to add some players. The good thing is we really don't need a back up center because Gasol can be our back up center.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

This team is a hell of a lot better than when he previously was in Cleveland. Larry Hughes was the 2nd best player, Larry Hughes

Who said it wasn't?

Your fine at C.
Way better off to invest in shooters and defenders coming off the bench.

Question for Laker Fans: How much does Gasol have Left? Is he going to help us? Is He still a all-star Player?

The biggest question with Pau will be his health. He suffered through some injuries last year, but if he's healthy, you can pencil him in for 17, 10 and 4 every night. If he can stay healthy, his skillset is one that does not erode quickly. Essentially, he's Tim Duncan, but with a little more range and little less physical.

In short, it's very possible that you got the player you need to get out of the east.

I had no problem with LBJ leaving the Cavs the first time, i idnt care which team he went to. Luckily it was mine, but any would have been fine. Players cant help where they are drafted, they should get choose their team once. He chose Miami. So stick with what you came there for. He has no character. And then to lie about all. That SI lister was done back on July 5th. Before he met Riley. He had secret meetings with the Cavs owner and management. Why keep it secret?you were a FA. And then to make everyone think he had anything to do with worrying that article, pleaaaaase. I have heard him speak, he doesnt have the best education. He is just a child trapped in a mans body with grandpas head.

Thanks for the Info. I am very excited for this. I think he is a Big upgrade over Boozer. I also like that we can rotate Noah, Gasol, and Gibson. We still need a SG/SF Butler will play 1 position but we need to fill the other spot.

Perfect!
I wish this was on the other thread.

If my assumption is correct and the sign and trade is Pau for Boozer and a pick. It is one of those deals that helps both teams.

The Bulls get a player who can be the difference maker they need. Not only does he have a skillset that will fit very well with the Bulls, but he also has championship experience.

The Lakers get a player who is still solid and can contribute on an expiring contract, as well as a draft pick, which they are in need of.

 

[purguy12]

Deng would be a good fit for Miami or Houston.

 

[purguy12]

If Parker can get into shape he can be a mini LBJ(not saying talent wise but a poor man LBJ).

I agree I think its a good move for both teams. Lakers get an expiring contract to help them next year plus a player that can still help them. Plus they get a 1st rd pick(I think this is what I heard).

If Miami get Deng they will be a top 6 team. Deng gives you Defense and a player that can get 12-16 points a game. a good #3 option for Miami.
