Ai would cost nothing and Do you really think Lou is much better?

I refuse to give Lou 8-10 mil


And lol at the Spencer signing, its whatever I guess. Hope he's working on his d

Lou sucks. A.I is a alcoholic. Spencer is soft as hell. Rather build with Vujecvic n Allen than him.

:scusthov: this is exactly why I wanted the Bulls to win that series (that and I'm a fan of the Bulls also :myman:) but smh I knew if they made it to the 2nd round they would think this team they have is good enough :childplease: :snoop: we have new owners but the same cheapness and laziness every team in the league just about has gotten better in some way are trying to get free agents but us :heh: of course not we're worried about resigning Lou and Hawes :rudy:

I wish man, but AI is beyond past it. You can watch this game he just played in China:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDSm8aBZl4A

His handles are gone, so is all of his quickness and explosiveness. His jumper wasn't hitting either.:to:

Someone try to convince me that we aren't Dwights best option right now

1. Young team that is only getting better

2. He gets to be "the man"

3. Eastern conference

4. 4th largest media market

5. Has the pieces to get a trade done


I've been pushing this for the longest and everyday it looks more likely

Bad boys move in silence...


:why:

Exactly this team is afraid to make moves. No point in having iggy at all when your team is average

The difference between the new owners and the old owners are night and day.

Josh Harris and co are really smart guys that are in it to win a title. They aren't going to do a deal just to do one, it has to be the right move. Holding onto iggy was smart. Resigning hawes is low risk high reward.

Also remember that we are still in the mix for Howard. The owners are willing to take him as a rental and take our chances. That shows me alot, Ed snider would never have the balls to do that. I believe we will be a top tier franchise again in the near future.

:snoop: They are not getting Dwight he doesn't want to come here and trading Turner and the rest of our young talent is not worth it because we'd be gutting the team for someone that's not gonna stay anyway. Explain to me how they'd be any better after he bounces:shaq2: and I guess you forgot after this season Iggy can opt out so we gonna end up overpaying for Iggy still not have a center and restart the rebuilding process all over again :upsetfavre: let the Dwight thing go breh he's a locker room cancer anyway.

wtf @ this raptors trade rumor

that shyt better not happen

2 decent players (a good wing player/defender and a young center) for 3 underperforming ones (one of them being a point guard that we just dont need)?

is this just a contract dump?

Calderon is a $10 million expiring. DeRozan will be a restricted FA next offseason. Davis has a team option next year, one which I'd expect we'd pick up.

Lets say this trade goes through and they let them and elton walk at the end of next season.
About how much space does that clear up?

In theory, the only contracts that'll be on the books are Thad, Allen, and Hawes. Jrue will almost definitely have his option picked up and so will Turner. Still, we'd probably be around 30 million under the cap.
