NBA Offseason Thread

Bulls about to meet with LBJ. Lebrons meeting with Cavs finished. Evidently Jerry and the Bulls were locked out and had to make some calls to get in and the Cleveland insider says Jerry looked a little ticked.

    I feel like this has probably been posted somewhere, but I haven't seen it. If it has, my bad.     http://www.nba.com/cavaliers/news/gilbert_letter_100708.html   Not sure how everyone else

PDcavsinsider Like #Cavs, Bulls going semi casual, no ties but jackets. Pat Riley wouldn't stand for that even on a Saturday. Then again, LBJ in shorts.

half a minute ago via TweetDeck

 

Tom Thibodeau, Gar Forman, John Paxson & Jerry Reinsdorf in party. Didn't have presentation luggage with them.

 

 

Are we already meeting or have we just arrived and are getting ready? I hope this not wearing suits thing works cause I'd have f***ing suited up like no other.

IraHeatBeat: Dwyane Wade is talking again, and he is sounding like a player truly conflicted with the Heat-or-Bulls decision. http://bit.ly/9YXyEa

 

im glad he is truly considering the offer

Wow, a heat writer finally acknowledging his interest in the Bulls is real...

If Wade wants to be with his children or that custody battle is entering into his mind it will make a difference that he chose employment in the state where his children reside.

 

A lot easier for a judge to award custody or greater visitation rights when the children are staying in the same place.

 

Hate to say that might be the deciding factor, but youd imagine its weighing on him some what.

"At the end of the day, your decision goes on what's best for you and your family," he said. "I think that the organizations I've been brought in to meet with are all good organizations. And all can add something to my life, and not just basketball-wise.

 

"I understand that if myself and another guy and we have some good players around, we'll be good. To me it's about what makes forty years of my life and not just about the next ten."

 

That could tie Wade's decision to his family being based in Chicago, his hometown.

 

"This is the place where my vision of becoming an NBA player came true," he said.

that part of the article makes me believe he's leaning towards chicago

 

Bulls are going into the meeting with Lebron. This is potentially the biggest day in Bulls lore since 1998.

Yeah, even if Wade doesn't come here, the idea that what he's doing is a smoke screen just doesn't hold water IMO. I'm kind of glad the LeBron stuff is going to be over soon. It just seems so incredibly unlikely he'll come here, and it'll be nice when the Bulls can move their focus to Bosh and Wade, who are much more realistic options.

Poor Chris Bosh...The chicks didn't ask him for his autograph. He looks a little disturbed by that.

 

Well, he looked like a raptor that was short on food. I don't blame the chicks. A lot of people know Wade, not many know Bosh. That's what you get for playing in Canada.

Either the Bulls or someone deeply invested in the success of the Bulls has more balls then I imagine. They gave Lebron a package at midnight and thet flat out challenged him to beat Jordan. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie

Absolutely LOVE IT if its true they sent that to LBJ!

Goff retweeted one of the Cavs beat writers saying the Cavs did a custom cartoon Family Guy style with Lebron's friends and inside jokes and Byron Scott talked about playing style... well, they probably want to also include how they are going to improve the roster.

Yep Lebron's a competitive person, and competitive people hate turning down challenges.

I hope that was the Bulls. That's f***ing brilliant.

Wow, the Bulls really do know LeBron well. Cartoons and inside jokes are one thing, but the challenge of becoming a legend is on a whole other level.

Wow, the shoes/rings/outline/newspaper is freaking genius.

 

This is too crazy.

Turns out the shoe thing was from the Trib. It's still brilliant.

Steve is a prophet.

If I were the Bulls, I would start the presentation with a Bulls montage of the glory years. Show the iconic championship moments and all with Jordan, Pip, Rodman, etc. Then show the opening montage before the Bulls games, but add James at the end as well. And then, end the video portion with the Bulls player introduction video, music and just end with from St. Vincent, St. Mary...

I've adopted it because I feel this way as well.

Bulls meeting is coming to an end. The Powers That Be are preparing to exit in style.

"Bulls' escalades in front of building. So much for a covert exit. Crowd gathering around, this should be fun."
