picks and taking away Smith salary Boozer doesn't affect future plans at all. It is better than them losing him outright.
they could easily get a better sign/trade from houston though

that trade is straight asscheeks for the Knicks - those picks might never amount to anything and they have to pay Boozer 15 mil for a season? .

The exact reason IMO why it looks like the fo is gearing up to sign melo outright
Might have to lose taj tho

But as I said before it's not the end of the world if we have to part with taj. I think Jordan hill and mirotic is a good replacement. You also have Ed Davis and Andre blatche out there both of which would be cool playing next to Noah and in the line up with melo and rose . Trading taj would give us our exceptions (rmle and bae) we can get 2 great pieces with those exceptions

Naw, Phil can just say no breh

We have to be prepared for both sides of it. We hold a edge with melo because we in the east, out coaching and defense that can cover melo, and the fact melo would not have to sacrifice his game to be here. But Houston can offer a better package. So it can't come down to a bidding war. Phil would prefer Houston unless Phil values McDermott and mirotic that much

I think we have another thing in our favor

If lebron rejoins Miami and takes 15-16 mill to improve the roster

It's a great Chance Melo may come here for the same 15-16 mill as lebron kinda dictated the
Market. This would allow us to keep taj as all we would need to do then is amnesty boozer trade dunleavy get rid of the non guarantees and have mirotic sit another season. We could clear 15-17 mill with that. Then melo signing right under the apron keeps our exceptions. And it keeps taj

Hearing the Melo to Heat "pipe dream" has likely burst. Word is Melo wants as close to max money as possible. Wouldn't be case in Miami #NBA

KC Johnson on The Game

- Thinks McDermott will play Kyle Korver role at first Will have to earn minutes Think he projects stronger rotation guy than Snell last season

- Gar was pretty direct when asked about free agency Not a lot of space but they will get creative any way they can to get players in

- Indications are that Melo is very serious about the Bulls and everything that jackson says/does could push him out If Bulls get a strong indication on Melo the Bulls will do what it takes to get deal done The Bulls have a target and thats Melo

- Knows he is in minority Doesnt believe in the "recruiting angle" Does Duncan have to be recruited? Rose will play with anyone Rose is not that type of individual to publicly recruit Values team But to say he doesnt want to play with Melo is false Would love Anthony and would love Love Rose gets casts in unfair light when it comes to recruiting angle

- No buzz on Bulls / Love story If they dont get Melo plan B is Mirotic and fuller roster

- minny is stalling and dragging feet on any Love trade

- Bulls like Dunleavy would like to keep him but he is an asset that can be traded in any S&T

- Gar sounded pretty cocky when asked about Randolph Pretty obvious Randolph will not prevent a Melo S&T

- Tom was in on McDermott Someone Tom wanted Tom was given Freddette McDermott a more NBA ready player Not to say Fredette couldnt be successful in right situation though
