Chris Sheridan who said the announcement would be on the website last night actually thinks everyone else is being fed misinformation even though much of the information he has supposedly been given hasn't come true.

hahaha

Did Sheridan ever give a time? I just remember him saying it'd be on the website before he goes to Brazil.

PHIL TREXLER-ABJ ‏@PhilTrexler 3m

Folks in Bath feel strongly that LBJ will sign w/ CLE. LBJ's camp contacted cops hour ago to alert them of tonight's annoucement. #kingjames

 

 

 

So sounds like we'll be hearing tonight at least.

Unless, of course, that's another lie.

SAS: "Melo's family is talking to him and pushing towards Chicago."

 

Oh the Melodrama.

Melo to Chicago then. Unless, of course, this is another lie.

BREAKING NEWS: Teams awaiting announcements from James, Melo

There's no way you'd tell the police what your decision is. Those are a bunch of regular guys, for the most part. It would get out.

SOURCE: Lebron James Mulling Decision

Report: Lebron and Melo will sign with a team sometime before Sept.

This thread might be the best place to stay up to date on all of the Bulls related drama on the web.

 

PS: I wasn't around last night but I agree w/Tru & Steve, if the Bulls don't get Melo, and LBJ goes to Cleveland, the Cavs would be the favorites in the East. I do disagree that they would be automatic, however, that would be dependent on what else the Bulls did and what the Pacers could do to get their mental edge back. I think Wizards / Raports get too much love and aren't yet on same level as Bulls / Pacers. I do not think that team, even with Love, would be an automatic NBA champion, as after acquiring Love they would have some depth issues (and we can't play ignorant to Kyrie's health situation), however, that would make them pretty heavy favorites in East. Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't realize just how truly great Lebron is and is also underselling the ability of Kyrie.

Since it was me, and Quinavry to a certain extent, that were arguing with Steve and TRU, I just want to be clear in what I believe. Of course if you put LeBron on the current Cavs team, and if you include Love, that means they most likely won't have Wiggins because I read that the TWolves would ask for Wigs, they would be contenders right away, but I don't believe they would be unbeatable. They would be a very young team with no playoff experience and a coach with zero NBA experience.

 

When LeBron went to Miami, he had a FMVP in Wade and another All Star player in Bosh, and they were surrounded by vets. The whole thing was supervised by Riley, the situation in Cleveland is a whole lot different. They don't have that kind of championship experience.

 

That's the reason I said it would take the Cavs a year or two before they become unbeatable if their younger guys mature and turn out to be the players they're projected to be. I wouldn't trade Wiggins for Love to be honest, it could be just a rental and I really do think Wiggins is going to be a star in this league. It takes a team to win, the Cavs will flourish with today's greatest player but I'm not buying the notion that they can't be beaten in their first year or two together, especially considering the franchise, coach and youth of their team. Somehow that get's translated as having a venemous hate towards LeBron though when I never even questioned his status of today's greatest player, it's his team and coach I'm questioning. After all, it does take a team effort to win.

EXCLUSIVE: Steve is tired of this s***.

Of course. But you tell them something ishhappening so your home doesn't burn.

BREAKING: Lebron and Melo have not made a decision yet. Will update when decision has been announced.

EXCLUSIVE: Steve is tired of this s***.

 

your source is lying. Everyone knows Steve loves this

Lance! Lance! Lance!

Is this the same source that said Derrick Rose was coming back?

Man, this makes me long for the decision.

You know that LeBron and Melo are just getting off on this s***.

Not sure. I think they want it to be over but you cant just make a move without doing lots of other people favors with these meetings. LBJ is still scrimmaging in Vegas.

I seriously don't know what the hold up is. What is there to think about?

I was thinking Lebron and his team are probably trying to find the biggest buyer for ad space on his website when he announces.

I agree with everything you said.

Phil says he's texted Carmelo since their meeting, but hasn't gotten responses back from him.

For some reason this makes me laugh.

@Al_Iannazone: Phil said he has not heard from Melo yet. He expects to today.

Chris Herring ‏@HerringWSJ 3s

Phil says he's expects an answer from Carmelo today, but that he also expected one yesterday and the day before that, too.
