Jerry made sure the Sox game would be in a rain delay up until the Bulls make two huge signings Tehehe.

Jason Goff is also reporting that both players are meeting. In other news, the Heat are meeting with David Lee tonight in Miami. When do the Bulls meet with Lee?

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 05:01 PM) As much as I want Lebron if you can get Wade and Bosh to commit tonight you forgot about Lebron James And I'm ok with that. On a sidenote, KC had said that Wade had left, so I'm quite confused, unless the sides all said, we'll see both of you shortly? Who knows. KC Johnson has been pretty on top of almost everything.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 04:59 PM) I just ejaculated a little. Me too. This would be insane. I'd be thrilled with getting any 1 of the 3, 2 of the 3 would be incredible!!! And i genuinely like Dwade. I think he's a serious downgrade from LBJ and I have concerns over his injury issues but I'd still jizz everyone if we landed those two.

CSN is reporting that Wade, Bosh, and their agent are all meeting with Bulls management RIGHT NOW!!!! That is as of 2 minutes ago.

My guess is if the Bulls dont' get a commit from Bosh or Wade tonight, it will come out that the Bulls/Boozer have agreed to a deal and that will be what they use to sell Lebron. Clearly you'd rather have Bosh or Wade in your cards but Boozer combined with our other guys isn't too shabby either.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 04:45 PM) Bulls are going to press him for an agreement tonight with James' meeting tomorrow. There goal is clearly to get one of those guys to commit. We have to hope the Bulls already have worked things out with the Raptors in terms of getting Bosh his $.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 04:43 PM) Comcast reported that Wade is meeting with Pat Riley next week. I'm going to assume that isn't new or fresh rumors from the last 15 minutes. I doubt anyone knows the details of Wade/Bulls meeting quite yet (outside of the people involved). It will take time for stuff to leak, especially from Bulls camp since those in the know are going to pretty much be preparing for there next meeting (Bosh) which starts at 7 Chicago time.

Bulls meet with Bosh in about 15 minutes.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 04:34 PM) Did Wade meet with the Bulls already tonight, or is it still to come? Meeting is over, they met for about an hour and 15 minutes. Meeting ended about 20 minutes ago I think. I'm hoping the Bulls have a committ from one of Wade/Bosh by the end of the night.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 03:09 PM) I wonder if that Pietras + Gortat has legs... And in that I noticed this... Now THIS is what I can easily see being done. I don't get it, in that scenario both guys lose money, most likely. However, they would both have far superior rosters.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 03:00 PM) any chance the wade meeting takes place during the bosh meeting with the bulls today and they both agree right there and then? Highly doubt it. I still have no idea how all of this will play out, but earlier today I felt like Lebron was our only hope at a title and I don't know how likely that is, now it seems like the picture opened up a bit more. But still lots of time between now and when the guys can ink deals.

I still think Wade stays, but I am excited about Noah no longer being a sticking point in a S&T. I'm curious to see what the news will be after the Bulls meet with Wade/Bosh. Do they Bulls have some hush hush deal to move Deng and create even more cap space?

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 02:48 PM) There is also a report from Wallace saying Wade is using us as leverage with the second meeting to get Miami to sign LeBron soon. That makes no sense. Why would Miami need any additional pressure to sign Lebron. It isn't really in there hands. And who is Wallace?

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 02:43 PM) B & B are making it sound like now the bulls will be last tomorrow, even after the Cavs. Anyone pick up the story, it was eluded to on the radio but didn't hear the whole thing, something about Riley's presentation to Lebron and showing him championship rings, they made it sound like Wade didn't like it and didn't think it was enough They will. It sounds like the Bulls are talking about trying to get LBJ/Wade on the same team.

f***ing huge. If we could land Wade, I'd say screw it and land him and Bosh. At this point I don't want to get shut out. I'm giddy. I want LBJ, but I'll take Wade and Boozer/Bosh/Lee.

Who the hell is LebrontoChicago

I made a superthread.

Its sad how much we financially ignore our farm system. You don't invest cash, you don't get results.

If the Dutch hold on, we can't pretend like this is some huge upside. The Dutch are one of the best teams in the world!!!! :WOOWOOOWOWOWOW

Go DUTCH!!!

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 08:21 AM) Per, the Score that the Bulls held a meeting with Boozer yesterday. If so, that would explain what Pax and Thibs were doing at the Trump, since KC reported that they didn't meet with Bosh. Others are reporting that the Bulls reps did have a very informal half hour conversation with Bosh though. Big pitch is today though!!!

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 10:55 PM) I can't say I'm 100000% sure they talked to Bosh, but there is really no other reason why they'd be there with Bosh and Boozer there as well. Per, the Score that the Bulls held a meeting with Boozer yesterday. If so, that would explain what Pax and Thibs were doing at the Trump, since KC reported that they didn't meet with Bosh.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 10:43 PM) Paxson and Thibodeau were definitely there, there is no denying that. I think it was more of a "Welcome to the city, we're looking forward to talking to you in great detail tomorrow" type deal. And Paxson was smiling ear to ear afterwards. Awesome.
