In past discussions w/Bulls, ESPN sources say Lakers have been open to taking back Carlos Boozer's contract depending on assets attached

Butler + Snell + this year's first? I would only be willing to do this contingent on getting Melo.

 

Second thought, that might be a tad much.

Can Lakers still take on Boozers contract with the moves they made today?

So Bulls, Thunder and Spurs remain?

... and Knicks, which is worst-case.

@mathiashoff: Sources tell me Carmelo Anthony will be signing with the #Bulls, news should break around 8:00 p.m.

 

No idea who. totally random. Enjoy

Some RealGM posters say he also broke Jared Allen to the Bears. Don't know the truth to that. But just adding some context.

Yea I saw in the tweet conversation that he seems to have a source here and there

Had Lebron to Cleveland yesterday as welll.....Still not sure if I'm buying it...I think Melo will indeed come to Chicago but not sure if I'd give dude credit.

If it breaks at 8 pm he deserves credit

I'll Bolieve it. Eastern or Central time?

How can Melo sign directly with the Bulls before we even amnesty Boozer? Unless he's talking about a S&T which we haven't heard that Phil is willing to do yet

If it breaks at 8 pm he deserves credit

 

I reckon.....

 

I want it to happen tomorrow.....Why? Because it's my birthday!

Does anyone have the realGM link

This is the thread talking about him, the tweet, etc.

I'll never hate on the FO again if they can pull this off. That's a lot of f***in' money to give up.

I'm assuming Melo has no interest in playing for Houston, but does that mean Morey will come hard at Melo again?

Doesn't work. Or at least I highly doubt they can get anything to work cap wise. I suppose they could go back but really, doesn't make any sense.

ESPN's Houston guy is absolutely melting down on twitter.

TIFWIW, but this is from one of the real gm insiders:

 

[quote[sorry for the boom, but marketing is working on Melo. It seems Melo will officially be a Bull. This is a great day for us Bulls fans after the past 3 seasons. Please, I can't share but people laughed at me on Sunday with Lebron info. Travel arrangements are being made. People laughed at me about Rose going to LA to visit.

 

I'm not posting again, but to all Bulls fans, it finally worked. Give credit to Garpax, Thibs, Noah and Rose!

We shall see soon I hope.

Remember the Soriano White Sox jerseys

FWIW, my friend claims it's a done deal as well and he is not connected to the RealGM source in any way. Say's he gets his info from actual people.

 

 

Rock said earlier that Melo will be a Bull and said book it.

Damnit. Stupid NBA.

 

I just realized I'm only going to be living 3 hours from Cleveland and if Melo goes to Chicago that makes driving to Cleveland for a Bulls/Cavs game a reasonable thing to do.

 

Which means it's not going to happen even more so.

Wiggins vs Parker on nba tv right now.

Chris Bosh is reportedly finalizing an agreement to return to Miami on a five-year deal worth $118 million.

 

Wow, looks like Bosh is going to remain loyal to Pat Riley. If Bosh had elected to sign with Houston he would have been leaving $32 million on the table, so perhaps there was a bit of financial incentive at play here. Miami has a lot of cap space, and they can bring in another high-profile free agent to play alongside Bosh and Dwyane Wade. Bosh will now take on a much larger burden with shouldering the offensive workload in Miami, and he could be in for a fantastic fantasy season. Jul 11

I don't know if it has always been, but Melo's official website thisismelo.com has red and black borders right now.
