QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 20, 2014 -> 01:45 PM) To me, that pretty much takes everyone but the Lakers off the table. I dont want Minnesotas middle round pick or Memphis' late round pick. The Bulls have that already Minnesota in Western Conference - Love = bad team even with Thibs. I may take 2 first rounders in that case.

Yeah good luck stealing 2 in NYC.

My best case prediction: Bulls have shown no penchant for the "BIG MOVE". So eliminate all three way deals. Eliminate any trades, as they overvalue their assets (except Thibs or anyone that questions Tony Snell being best draft pick in history) The best shot we have is signing Carmelo. It is the easiest thing for Paxson and Gar to grasp, and will not cause them to stick their neck out too much in reorganizing the team.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 19, 2014 -> 10:00 PM) When is the last time that the Bulls signed a top tier FA? Ill hang up and listen. Not really fair, he was hired in the year we went on a spending spree for Boozer and had just re-signed Noah and Deng. Since then team has been right at or above the luxury tax. But we have seen players sign for less to be on his teams.

If we don't get Love, updating PF doesn't really do it for me because presumably that is Mirotic who is younger, hopefully less injury prone, and overall a less punchable face.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 19, 2014 -> 06:22 PM) Obviously the Bears would need to be able to extend Kevin Love as well. Well they just extended Marshall, so why not.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ May 19, 2014 -> 06:38 PM) Why do they call Marc Trestman the quarterback whisperer? Mainly for his reputation with QBs and the play that came out of Josh McCown and Jay Cutler last year.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 18, 2014 -> 10:22 PM) While I am in Dreamland... Melo or Love, if you had your choice... Go. Love. I think in general he fits much better with a great Rose, too. Also youth and all that.

I love the occasional Oduya passing brilliance. The no look, clean pass to the tape of Toews was a thing of beauty. The amazing thing about this team is when they get a great chance in a crucial moment they execute it. That is a rare feat in sports, not just Chicago sports.

Nice to see a pitcher deliver the ball quickly

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 18, 2014 -> 05:36 PM) That had nothing to do with it. I mentioned an upcoming DL stint for him a week ago. Why not try and get by this weekend then and make it retroactive rather then risk it being worse?

Hawk talking nonsense.

Lynch taking kicks today.

I love that man

LA and it's not even close.

What are the chances the owners will hire a commissioner that will "stand up to owners"

Addiction is an awful thing. I hope he can get passed it, and also get over his weird conspiracy theories.

I feel pretty good about the American sports leagues when s*** like this is going down: http://dish.andrewsullivan.com/2014/05/16/...-the-world-cup/

Most of the leagues have been returning the same teams. And not much different than other points in the NBAs history.

Really wish we would have drafted Dieng last year and had more to play with the athletic wings in this years draft. But GAR.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 15, 2014 -> 09:32 PM) They had just a few more weapons than we do... Yes, but media coverage does tend to focus on teams winning a lot.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 15, 2014 -> 09:25 PM) Abreu vs Tanaka segment on ATH today. 2 of the 3 took Abreu. Tony Reali ranted that no one has been giving Abreu enough attention all year whereas Puig got it last year. I know people love to hate Puig but it bears repeating that his team ripped a 50 game stretch where they went like 43-7 or something. We are 20-22 in sleepy may.

Peavy Rios trade obviously need to be evaluated on dollar terms, but the Rios for L. Garcia is kind of a huge bust for me right now.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 15, 2014 -> 09:26 PM) So would game 1 be on Sunday or Monday night? I think I read it's sunday at 3pm regardless.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 15, 2014 -> 06:35 PM) When he signed for me in the spring he appeared a little bloated. Maybe he's off the sauce like Miggy... yeah... Or maybe he's losing it because of stress as his parents migrate over from a totalitarian government and his pressure to succeed in a new country.
