thxfrthmmrs Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 09:39 PM) Bulls need Anthony Morrow big (assuming no LBJ). He'd be the perfect sixth man. I'd also sign Ronnie Brewer to be our starting 2-guard. Not a great offensive player, but can score efficiently and play solid D which we will need at the guard spot. Also brings nice size. I'd also go for Luke Ridnour for the back-up PG spot to round out the roster along with Asik who is a forgone conclusion as an addition. Rose/Ridnour Brewer/Morrow Deng/Johnson Boozer/Gibson Noah/Asik That is a solid group right there who should hopefully grow into a bonafide contender in couple years when Rose becomes hopefully a star. that starting 5 would require no defense at the perimeter, all opposing defense has to do is stay at home around the painted area to guard Rose's penetration. Brewer would be a nice addition for a 6th man My 5 would look like this rose/ jwill or ridnour allen or miller / morrow deng / barnes boozer / gibson noah / ratliff or asik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 We were almost all wrong about LBJ if he goes to Miami, because he has absolutely zero ego if he goes there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palehosefan Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:03 PM) why's that? Miami insiders as well as LeBron apparently flying to Miami tonight to meet with Riley. Wade and Bosh might be at the announcement as well. It could all just be rumors, but the Miami insider has been 100% so far. ESPN actually ran the LeBron flying to Miami news across the bottom line for about 5 minutes before pulling it back tonight at around 9:35.

maggsmaggs Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 08:48 PM) Well, you all know I would love Anthony Morrow on the Bulls. QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 09:50 PM) Gordon is much better at creating his own shot. Morrow might play better D on a team that focuses on it. He's a great energy player thought with a ton of enthusiasm. The biggest problem with Gordon, well two actually, he was so damn small for a SG and just simply didn't care about defense. I am convinced any player can be at least average defensively solely through effort. Morrow biggest problem on D was he played in system that didn't allow for defense really.

WHarris1 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Every report that's out there right now is smokescreen and conjecture, does anyone really believe Lebron and his camp would play it all this close to the vest and tight lipped just to let it out in the waning hours?

Steve9347 Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 ESPN must be the only news media outlet out there. They are generating hype. It's been New York today, it's been Cleveland today, it's been the Bulls today, now the 5 minutes of a bulls*** flight, then pull it back, and everyone is confused.

Did it really take this whole fiasco to figure out that LeBron is a major league stroke job? I'll stick with my prediction that he is staying in Cleveland.

fathom Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 LeBron James is like the show "Lost". In the end, he'll probably choose the Cavs and we'll never hear an explanation for all the interesting things we've heard along the way: - WWW issues - dinner with Amar'e/Houston - FA summit with Wade/Bosh - tax form changed to Chicago - house hunting in Lake Forest The LeBron supporters will then say it wasn't about the unexplained details, it was about the character.
