July 2, 201015 yr QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 06:46 PM) Damn. 4 years is way too much. But that's a nice move. Another sniper who can actually create some offense. He’s basically a mini-Hinrich. He’ll facilitate the bigs in that lineup very nicely.
July 2, 201015 yr I wasn't around earlier for this thread earlier and there's too many pages to read, but did someone post this? http://www.slate.com/id/2258799/ Absolutely hilarious.
July 2, 201015 yr now there's conflicting reports about the Wade meeting, it is confirmed, but Casey Johnson said the contact was received by Wade enthusiastically and B & B just reported a conflicting report, sorry didn't catch the name, but a veteran NBA guy said Wade's is doing is at courtesy, it fits wouldn't fit his personality to turn a request like that down.
July 2, 201015 yr Just saw this at realgm. The Knicks have been virtually eliminated from contention for LeBron James, according to a report from Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski. James' camp categorized New York's presentation as 'lacking preparedness and organization.' Aspects of the Nets' presentation earlier on Thursday were similar in nature to New York's and were 'sharper' and 'edgier'. James has reservations about the possibility of his earning potential being greater in New York than in Cleveland to make up a $30M difference in salary.

Read more: http://basketball.realgm.com/src_wiretap_a.../#ixzz0sZHLMAoU not a shock, the reports of their two "options" were really a complete joke, this is why I think they moved so strongly on Amare, they are going to get screwed, but at least they can have a press conference with a guy... may sound silly, but that's really the point it got to for them Edited July 2, 201015 yr by SoxFan562004
July 2, 201015 yr Reports say Amar'e is trying to talk to a FA player to join him in New York. Don't know who though, but it isn't the big 3 supposedly.

Don't know who though, but it isn't the big 3 supposedly. that's the Knick's best option at this point, not a great one, but they need to see if they can scrounge something out of this, because it looks like they are out of contention for any of the other impact guys
July 2, 201015 yr Seems like if Wade doesn't commit to the Bulls within the next 24 hours, then he's not coming here. It will be an interesting 24 hours though.
July 2, 201015 yr http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5348670 Damn things are changing quick.

The problem is they'd be playing nearly everone small and out of position.

If he doesn't leave the Berto center signed he will likely go back to Miami, but wow what an intriguing option to have tonight
July 2, 201015 yr The good is that there's enough smoke here to make me want to pass out from the fumes. I'm buzzing right now.
July 2, 201015 yr So some sources are saying Wade reacted enthusiastically to our request; others that he is doing it as a courtesy; and yet another saying Wade requested the meeting himself. This s*** is mind-numbing.
July 2, 201015 yr QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 04:56 PM) Dude, I cannot f***ing take this. Seriously. I just want to wake up tomorrow and take my chances, but I don't want to miss anything tonight potentially. I'll say this though, IF Wade or LeBron (or both) or Bosh sign, this will make this week much better for me personally and my buddy sitting in the hospital who is a Bulls fan.
July 2, 201015 yr QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 11:59 PM) Bulls trying to trade Deng to Utah for Okur now I would actually love that, as Okur can spread the court when he's healthy. He'd be our best outside shooter.
July 2, 201015 yr QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 06:59 PM) Bulls trying to trade Deng to Utah for Okur now This fits in with an earlier report about the Bulls wanting Okur to tutor Asik.
July 2, 201015 yr No one knows for sure, but it seems like something happened that makes Miami not in the picture and maybe Wade is worried if he doesnt leave Miami, he goes back with no other superstar and will be stuck there for 5-6 years in a s***ty sports town on a s***ty sports team. That would have to change his perspective. It probably also helps that he has been in Chicago this week and maybe has realized how much easier his life will be if he lives here. I mean just Wade to the Bulls is a hell of a lot better for him than going back to Miami alone.
