They need to clear space for Wade

So send Dunleavy to the Cavs for a 2nd round pick and maybe cash. That makes sense if you're the Bulls. They're probably laughing their ass off in Cleveland right now.

If having Wade can attract one or two really good FA's next year, then this will work out for Chicago. They're not contenders this year imo, playoff team yes but ECF is their ceiling.
that is the plan. We will have 2 1st rd picks and enough money for 1 max player. Plan is in place and we will still be in it this year. I guess as a fan its great because we have a chance win and compete but inside I was ready for a rebuilt after the rose trade. Then When it was just rondo I was pissed because it made no sense. Now with wade it makes all the sense. Weird offseason for us Bulls fans. We Finally hit on a Big FA.

I'm a little surprised the Heat couldn't deal McRambis (nickname us Lakers fans had for him on Fan Nation). His deal isn't that bad for a backup PF.

Dun dun to the cavs. Solid pickup
he doesnt play any defense- which is what i wanted them to eventually use the trade exception on- but he is a nice bench pickup...good insurance if jefferson leaves or retires.

Keep in mind that all agreements in the NBA right now are verbal. Will somebody pull a DeAndre Jordan this year?

If Kobe asked for so much that you couldn't get Deng, would you still pay him?

He would say yes because Kobe won 5 titles for the Lakers and you pay the man.

"But DJ, what does that do to help you build for the future and, oh I don't know, not suck for a while?"

"5 titles, man!"

Thank god it wasn't a 3 year deal. I can live with this because it will be fun to watch him and Butler go off on other teams. Rondo should have no problem avg 10 Asst a game again.

Just a guy at the end of the bench in case of injuries. Good shooter but that's it. I doubt he will play much. They still need a big man and possibly a PG. then resign JR

good insurance. He does have a bad back and will sit out games and his 3pt shooting isn't the same anymore and D is bad but solid bench player.

Bulls#2 or #3 in East now.

No...lol

Cavs, Pacers, Raptors, Celtics still better.

If they can hold that Mash Unit in Zoo York together with duct tape, they might be better too.

Ditto Hornets and Washington.

You could finish anywhere from 5-9.

JR is definitely the priority....they still have their mini-midlevel as well...though they might have to use that on Jefferson.

once the main part of free agency is over we will go dumpster diving and try and find a guy thats more like Jefferson than Shawn Marion hopefully...

Not Indy or Raptors but maybe Boston. Didn't raptors lose some key players. Not scared of Indy. Boston can be scary.
