Jose Abreu

Great games last night for Rose (again), Moore, Portis, McDermott, and Dunleavy

Yeah, the end result from the hit was bad, but the hit wasn't at all ejection-worthy.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Feb 21, 2016 -> 11:34 PM) I'd love some articles about which veterans reported fat and actually need to get with it during spring training to lose the pounds from Thanksgiving/Christmas dinners and loafing through the cold winter. Pablo Sandoval put on quite a few pounds this offseason

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 15m15 minutes ago Scottsdale, AZ Davidson on Frazier deal: "I totally get it. I’ve struggled really bad. I haven’t been happy with my performance at all.",

Damian "Not An All-Star Despite Stats Paralleling Rose's MVP Year Numbers" Lillard with 51 as the Blazers are beating GSW by 40 in the 4th quarter

McDermott with 30, Bulls beat Toronto for the 8th straight time

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Feb 19, 2016 -> 08:32 AM) We should have signed Nava when he was availablein December. Angels may cut him this spring so Hahn may get a 2nd chance. We have JB Shuck, who's probably a better backup at this point than Nava

Blackhawks are reportedly "very aggressively" looking to add a first line winger

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 09:44 PM) Anyone know what happened to the Italian Ice? Also, shoutout to the brisket sandwich at ChiSox Bar and Grill I thought they took the stand away, but don't the guys walking through aisles with ice cream-y stuff still sell it?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 09:41 PM) The pick is lottery protected. 90% it's going to turn out to be nothing. It's lottery protected, but it's a pick nonetheless. Jimmy Butler wasn't drafted in the lottery, look at him now

At least Rose showed up. Nobody else did.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 04:21 PM) Clippers gave up a 1st round pick in there trade with OKC for Jeff Green (where they dumped Lance). Doc continues to get pants in trades. Memphis

Jeff Green traded for Lance Stephenson? Wtf

Pau may just be playing us. He seemed dead set on leaving until reports from today. I still think he leaves for another team

LegionNBA ‏@MySportsLegion 52s53 seconds ago Bulls have traded Kirk Hinrich to the Hawks for a future 2nd round pick. (via ESPN)

Napier?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 01:56 PM) I think we'll make a small trade for Mac and get Napier. well we have 2 minutes.

Markieff Morris to Washington

"We're fine with what we have." Part... I don't even know

QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 11:11 AM) I have to believe some of this is exasperated by being on PHI. That said, Okafor does not sound like the player that works in Hoiberg's offense. But the thing about that is that we don't run Hoiberg's offense, so that point becomes moot

@dalridgetnt: Meanwhile, Gasol to Kings rumors being shot down posthaste. Sounds like they’re coming from one direction, if you get my meaning.

@SAMAMICK: On Pau Gasol-to-Sac possibility that the Yahoo crew reported, I'm getting skepticism from Bulls side that a deal will materialize today. @SAMAMICK: Worth noting: DeMarcus Cousins has always cited Pau as a big man whose game he admires perhaps above all others, so that'd be a fun pairing.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 09:25 AM) No idea how that would work. Bulls get Okafor Kings Gasoline 76ers the kings first unprotected and???? Well, its prices are way down right now, so I don't know how they'd like that

From a Sacramento board

Rose/McLemore/Butler/Gibson/Koufos would be fine, but starting Butler at the 3 takes away a lot of his offensive advantages.
