**** You Chicago

[Rowe]

Thanks for ruining my draft day. I honestly dont know what else to say about what Chicago has done, but I must admit that they have a better team in place right now and in the longterm for LeBron James.

That was my entire argument for why LeBron would come to NY. The only way I think he chooses New York over Chicago is wanting to build a unique legacy and becoming the Jordan-like figure over NY basketball.

[emsteez forreal]

:pimp:

[NY Comeback]

Come on, delete this thread. Have more pride than that. Nobody knows what's gonna happen. Shit is 1 week away from happening, don't get your hopes down now. And I've been saying this for a while, if LeBron doesn't come...so what? The Knicks will be better next year, that's all you need to worry about.

[Knicks101]

They ****ed everybody over. :oldlol:

There's still a few questions, but it's pretty undeniable that they are now the favorites to get LeBron.

[GreatHILL]

lebron in chicago is your only wet dream :lol

I had just went outside for a walk to get some hamburgers, and I come inside the house and see that headline on ESPNews.

Im ****ing pissed. Why is Chicago trying to do this? We've spent 3 years preparing for this ****ing moment and Chicago wants to come on in and try to get LeBron & Bosh. Why not be happy Bulls, you guys already have a future franchise player in Rose.

Its just eating at me right now. If we get LeBron, I will get a tattoo on my back in his honor.(srs)

Chicago just dealt Hinrich to the Wizards.

And now they have enough room to sign LeBron, Bosh, & have like $3 Million left over too just like the Knicks. Its ****ing ridiculous.

Now they're about to dump Deng for Pietrus & Gortat.:rant

What the **** is going on with this league?

[Andrei89]

They have 30 mil in free cap space. i still don't get how they want to get 2 players that demand above 16 mil.

I'll post this here (I posted it in the Hinrich to Wizards thread as well).

This is just in reference why bagelred (and I guess this apply to Knicks fans) about being mad about this trade.


I'll tell you why he is so butt hurt. He is pissed because this gives Chicago more cap space. Now Chicago is going to have the ability to bring two max free agents. They can have Bosh/Bron, Wade/Bron, Bron/Wade, etc you get the point. He is pissed because his piece of sh!t team was raped by Morey in order to make the Knicks unload Jeffries. Knicks went all in February. They gave the Rockets Jordan Hill (#8 2009 pick), they gave the Rockets the option to swap draft picks in 2011 (top #1 protected) and they also gave the Rockets a 2012 pick (top #5 protected).

See the Knicks are f*cked if they don't get at least one true superstar to come over (either Bron or Wade). The Knicks are not going to be be able to build for the next two years because the Rockets raped them just to take Jeffries.

I told this asshole all along that if the Knicks dealt with the Rockets that we were going to get whatever the hell we wanted out of them, not some bullsh!t player like Eddy Curry. This is why Bagel is so butt hurt, because Miami and Chicago have cleared as much capspace as the Knicks have and now they are in serious jeopardy of watching their team crash and burn for the next few years.

[Doranku]

No matter where LeBron goes, there's going to be A LOT of butt-hurt people. :roll:

[niko]

THey don't have room for two max free agents yet unless both players are taking $2 million per season pay cuts. Yes, this gives them a much much better argument than before. But it does not give them the room to sign two max players. That's NOT true. Unless they take pay cuts. Which they are not...

Rowe, stop being such a little girl. WAH WAH, THE BULLS HAVE WON! OMG! WHAT WILL I DO?

Please. It's embarassing me.

[Undisputed]

Why not be happy Bulls, you guys already have a future franchise player in Rose.

I'm happy with that. :confusedshrug: I'm ready for anything this free agency. I just want to watch winning Chicago basketball again.

[bongolarry]

Why not be happy Bulls, you guys already have a future franchise player in Rose.

Ya why would we not be happy with one all star and finishing in the bottom seed of the Eastern Conference every year thats so strange of us why would we want better players? And what do you mean by future franchise player? If hes not a franchise player idk who is.

Did you really think just because the Knicks really wanted LeBron everyone else would just seed him to them?

For the record, I'm not p-ssed at the Bulls. Smart move dumping Hinrich.

I'm p-ssed at the Wizards. Letting Chicago do this was beyond retarded. They not only screwed over Heat, Knicks, and Nets, they screwed over THEMSELVES. They're in the same conference. Was Hinrich really worth it? Geez, man, make the Bulls give up Noah or something.....

Unbelievable.


We'll see. The most hilarious thing that would ever happen is Bulls having the best "situation" to offer Lebron and Lebron STILL goes to Knicks. That would be the absolute ultimate "F U" to Chicago. Wow, I don't think they'd ever recover.

Better cross your fingers, Chicago.

Bulls still have Noah and Rose to build around and some decent parts in Taj, Warrick, and Deng.

If Lebron doesn't come to Chicago we can always build with other players.....we wouldn't be as bad as say...the Knicks on the other hand who are screwed if they don't get Lebron.

Yeah whatever man. Try to hide it as much as you want but you and other Knicks fans, as well as your organization have put all your stock into ONE player.

Now that it looks like that player might not choose your team you're sweating bullets.

Bulls are sitting pretty without Bron if we get the right pieces.

feel the same way. If we don't get players that will suck but we haven't done sh-t for a decade now. It's not like I'll jump on another bandwagon if the plan doesn't work out. I am a supporter of building a team by drafting, the Knicks have done a horrible job at keeping their picks or drafting good players. Tonights draft was a prime example with players like Varnado, Stephenson and Alabi still on the board. So if Walsh has a bad FA summer he will have f-cked the team over until 2013 thanks to the Houston trade. But we'll have to wait and see. Not trippin' like some of the other guys, just a great move by the Bulls GM.

I think that they have a little more than that because they traded their pick as well. Also, isn't it 33 million for 2 free agents?

How so? Our fanbase wasn't making lebron jerseys Photoshops for two years now. We weren't practically begging this guy to come here. We didn't tank two years and make absolutely no moves in order to get him.

We've made the playoffs five of the last six years without lebron. We've been one of the top defensive teams in the league without lebron. We've had an all star on our team without lebron.

What have the knicks done in that stretch? Nothing but pin their hopes on getting lebron to come and save their team for the last two seasons. They were dumb to think other teams weren't going to make some moves to get in on all the free agents this summer.

Now the Bulls have an all star point guard, a young battle tested defensive minded center who can get you 15/13 a night and cap room to bring in a top free agent that could turn this perennial playoff team into a contender while the knicks will still be in rebuilding mode. Add to the fact that our new coach is a defensive genius, it makes the Bulls that much more attractive a spot to land for any free agent.

Whose front office looks foolish and which one looks smart?

It's okay, you can say it.

Thing is, I'm not on the lebron to chicago bandwagon, only way I would is only to screw NY over one more time.

I'd much rather they go after Bosh and sign a good outside shooter, but hey, I don't make those decisions. (I really wish i did though).

It's you knick fans that started the trashing of the bulls as soon as they emerged as a player and you weren't the prettiest gir in the room anymore.

So who's defensive?

My previous post was nothing but sheer fact and the fact that you can't dispute it proves that I was dead on, so you resorted to the obly tactic you had left. Insulting me.

Pathetic.

I actually couldn't care less if he comes here or not. I think the Bulls' needs are in other areas, but as I said before, it's not my decision.

I can understand why Bulls fans are going ga ga over him, but I'm not in that boat.

I still feel the Bulls need a guy like Bosh for his post scoring (something a guy as big as lebron should be doing) and rebounding.

The Bulls also need outside shooting and while lebron would help that department, a good dedicated shooter at the 2 who is taler than 6' 5" would be an improvement. People are saying Joe johnson, but that dude came up smaller than kobe when it mattered most, so I'm not sold on him.

If lebron does come here, it'll be great, but I'm certainly not hanging my hat on it happening.

Lot of the crimes in Chicago are on the South Side, Lebron should stay away from that side. North Side from what I've heard, doesn't have as much crime and murders.

[Quickz]

Kobe will never live up to magic but that hasn't stopped him.

I just mean In Chicago, it would be a LOT harder. I just think Lebron wants to be the best ever on another franchise that's all. And Kobe was drafted by the Lakers so I think thats a little different.

Just curious cause I'm new here but as a bulls fan do you really wanna see Lebron go there??

To me, it looks like Chicago is about $4m short of a 2nd max FA.

Yeah, I'm sure the 5 million dollars a house neighborhood where LBJ will reside is a real shithole.

Didn't they break into Eddy Curry & Antoine Walker's home and rob them?

New York is the most well policed city in the US. LeBron can raise his family in a nice loft apartment in Manhattan that overlooks the entire city.

Well, basically to me, it is down to NY and Chicago.

No way he stays in CLeveland and no way he goes to Miami. He can't co-exist with Wade and if he does go to Miami, there is no way he can live with the fact that Wade will always have 1 more ring than him. I know if I was LeBron, it'd be a huge ego-block.

I think the whole MJ shadow thing is overplayed, and as a NY fan, I'd have to say Chicago's chances are slightly better at the moment... NY's terrible draft really doesn't help either. Seriously....

Lot of the crimes in Chicago are on the South Side, Lebron should stay away from that side. North Side from what I've heard, doesn't have as much crime and murders.
True, but it's the south and west sides.

Plus, if lebron were to come here, he'd live in Deerfield where the Bulls practice facility, the Berto Center is.

Crime is everywhere.

Why would he?

Chicago is a dangerous city. Point blank. Its also very expensive to live in a "modern" Midwest city that still doesn't have barely any relevant destinations. You guys have the House of Blues, but thats about it. Chicago was the most disappointing city I've ever been to. I thought it would be kinda like NYC but instead it was just a larger Milwaukee. There was an Old Navy downtown near where I was staying but outside of that, it looked like the average medium sized city. The black people I met there spoke like they were from Alabama and couldn't understand my talking speed.

[Glide2keva]

I just mean In Chicago, it would be a LOT harder. I just think Lebron wants to be the best ever on another franchise that's all. And Kobe was drafted by the Lakers so I think thats a little different.

Just curious cause I'm new here but as a bulls fan do you really wanna see Lebron go there??
Kobe wasn't drafted by the lakers, he was drafted by Charlotte (Hornets) and traded for Vlade Divac on draft night.

Plus, Kobe had legends he was following after: magic, kareem, West, Wilt, Mikan, Baylor.

lebron would be following after one legend in Jordan.

Dude you sound desparate.

Walker got robbed because he always get robbed here, because he's a ****ing slum lord and fluants his money.

Eddy Curry got hit because he had enemies.

Am I missing something here?

Rose - 5.6
Noah - 3.1
Deng - 11.3
Gibson - 1.1
JJ - 1.7
7 cap holds @ 440k each = 3.1

Total Salary/holds= 25.9m
Expected Cap = $55m
Salary Space = 29m

Max Contract ~ 16.5m
2 Max Contracts ~33m

Nope, you are right. Bucher basically said last night ITS CLOSE ENOUGH! so ESPN changed from what they said (that they are short) to ITS ENOUGH!

But no one here cares, i did the same math you did yesterday.

[bagelred]

I feel the Raptors or Cavs are going to bail the Bulls out with a S n T for Deng.

We should follow the Knick route and give up a first round pick for the next 6 years.

Translation:
:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

It's not fair the Bulls dumped a contract, now they're front runners for LeBron!
:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

The Wizards screwed us! Just like Vince McMahon screwed Stone Cold Steve Austin!

youre not funny. gtfo.

I thought the cap was at 56.1 or some such? Still not quite enough, but Im sure they will figure it out. Trade deng for about 9 mil (minus 1OOK /1.25) and they are right there.

How so? Our fanbase wasn't making lebron jerseys Photoshops for two years now. We weren't practically begging this guy to come here. We didn't tank two years and make absolutely no moves in order to get him.

We've made the playoffs five of the last six years without lebron. We've been one of the top defensive teams in the league without lebron. We've had an all star on our team without lebron.

What have the knicks done in that stretch? Nothing but pin their hopes on getting lebron to come and save their team for the last two seasons. They were dumb to think other teams weren't going to make some moves to get in on all the free agents this summer.

Now the Bulls have an all star point guard, a young battle tested defensive minded center who can get you 15/13 a night and cap room to bring in a top free agent that could turn this perennial playoff team into a contender while the knicks will still be in rebuilding mode. Add to the fact that our new coach is a defensive genius, it makes the Bulls that much more attractive a spot to land for any free agent.

Whose front office looks foolish and which one looks smart?

It's okay, you can say it.

we honestly can't be as mad at Chicago as we should be at ourselves...

absolutely embarrassing draft night and we have a useless coach and are getting punished even further for past stupidities. If we don't get a marquee player, fire the entire organization and start over with Pritchard please.

[LA_Showtime]

I would rather have Chicago get LeBron and Bosh. At least they played this out the right way. The same can't be said about New York.

[crisoner]

Wow Chicago will be one h3ll of a team if LeBron and Bosh and up there.
Wouldn't they have to trade for Bosh though?

He can still go to NY because it's NY....but the Bulls was his favorite team growing up...and talent wise if you want a shot to beat the Lakers.....got to go to the Bulls. Wow.....Chicago just won a cup and if LeBron heads there I guess they can forget about how terrible the Cubs are.

Steve Kerr's a legend as well buddy!

[crisoner]

Maybe LeBron and Boozer to Chicago...Bosh goes to NY to be the main guy.

That helps the pain a lil right Knick fans?

Regardless of FA 2010 outcome, the Knicks should hire Pritchard. The guy might be an arrogant son of a *****, but he will definitely help make the Knicks a better team in the long run. Donnie Walsh has sacrificed way too much for the Knicks to be all in.
