Rose notwithstanding, adding Melo to last years Bulls team and they are playing Miami in the ECFIf they get a healthy Rose back, HUGE if...
they'd be running out this lineup?
Rose
Butler
Melo
Gibson
Noah
Rose/Hinrich
Butler/ JR Spliff
Melo/ Snell
Taj / Mirotic
Noah / Smith
Hypothetically, If the Bulls were making a Melo sign/trade, do you think it would have to happen pre draft or draft night so the Knicks can select their own guys?You need to have a backup plan behind Rose and Noah if you want to contend. You have to plan for each of them missing 20-25 games minimum. I think Napier and Payne would be guys I'd go hard after in the draft
What you up to breh - lets get in a game of 2k since @beaniemac has always ducked me
Ive never ran a game with any of the Bulls brehs, just got home, gonna and run a couple games with a healthy Rose
I think it would have to happen in July so you can trade the rookiesHypothetically, If the Bulls were making a Melo sign/trade, do you think it would have to happen pre draft or draft night so the Knicks can select their own guys?
*Edit as of April 30, 2014: I have had multiple sources tell me that there is no way Mirotic makes anywhere near $3.5 million Euros, and in fact that they would be shocked if it is over 1 million Euros per year. That changes the calculus for him significantly.

Which states that Real Madrid chose a buy out clause that allows Mirotic to pay it in installments. So he wouldn't need to have the cash up front (nor would the Bulls necessarily need to front load his contract so he can afford to pay it in one lump sum.

Wouldn't NY prefer to make their own selections?I think it would have to happen in July so you can trade the rookies
Would go down like when they did the Kirk and pick deal they select for ny then trade them

I just spoke on this:Why do a sign and trade when you can amnesty Boozer and keep your picks and Mirotic?
People Ive talked to think Im crazy but I wouldnt waste a fukking second if I was Gar/Pax...
Unless Melo gives the Bulls 100% confirmation he would sign here for less to keep as many assets as possible, I wouldnt even blink an eye before offering a sign/trade package of Boozer's expiring, Mirotic and one of out 1st's and leaving it on Phil's front door the second Melo opts out
No fukking around here, this shyt feels real finally, and they cannot fukk it up
sign and trade allows us to keep mle and baeWhy do a sign and trade when you can amnesty Boozer and keep your picks and Mirotic?
Yea but that's the rulesWouldn't NY prefer to make their own selections?
