18 mill a yr for Jo?? Talk about serious overpay.

Yeah, but with the new cap, everyone's going to get twice the money they deserve.

Free agents about to get PAID, contracts will be flying off the shelves

 

 

There's also an ESPN Insider article ranking the Top 25 FA's in order.

I can't believe i'm gonna pull for the Knicks next year.

 

Lmao, f*** the Knicks.

Hopefully the FO can avoid all the stupid contracts, but I get the feeling Gar is going to have an itchy trigger finger.

I'm kind of in the same boat, which is nuts. I'm going to be rooting so hard for the twolves and any former Bulls next year because I despise garpax so much.

It's one of those weird instances where we would have all be fairly upset if the Bulls brought him back for anything more than a one year deal, but once you hear he is leaving, it's tough to take.

 

Going to miss Jo.

Totally this

Noah has been my favorite Bull for quite a while. I am going to be really sad to see him in another jersey.

A great Chicagoan too.

We have to get over the cap floor. We're going to have to give someone a lot of money regardless.

He and Rose both. They cared about the kids in this city, which might be what makes this sting more.

Wow an overpay for Jo, hes not half the player he once was.

I'd rather have Robin Lopez for $5 million less.

All indications are they're not doing anything this year. They're setting up tons of cap room for the next two years. I think the biggest thing they'll do is resign Moore.

 

For once, they're being smart and I applaud them. Next year is a lost year, they recognize it. Grab a lottery pick, get tons of cap space, try to grab a couple max guys. All this when, hopefully, Lebron starts his downfall.

 

Also, with Jo getting 18 million, Lopez at 11-13 for the next few years looks like a steal. I love that trade even more now.

Watch the Bulls tank next year for a high pick and get a karma b****slap from getting Rose at #1 and end up in the bottom of the lottery

And somehow Rose and Noah defy the impossible and become productive players again, with Rose becoming an All-Star. Pau also puts up All-Star numbers somewhere else.

 

Because Gar angered the universe.

There's nothing Rose can do in one year to really make this Gar decision look bad and any contract longer than 2 years for Noah is going to be a bad contract (most likely)

Look, I'm just trying to see how much the universe hates Gar.

You could only possibly move back 3 spots i believe. but if they tank, you just have to hope it's top 4 bad.

 

This roster unfortunately will still be decent unless Butler goes down.

Look, I'm just trying to see how much the universe hates Gar.

If the Universe gave Gar his face, it really, really hates him.

LOL Yes it does.

 

 

I am pretty numb to the Bulls news. Last year was such a disaster that until management is gone I dont think I will have any confidence in them to consistently do the right thing no matter what happens. The fact that Gar was able to make a completely terrible hire in his buddy Fred without having an actual interview process of candidates (which would have given you a better hire) and still be the GM the next year is an absolute travesty. And he gave Fred FIVE f***ING YEARS.

LOL Yes it does.

I'm inclined to agree. I don't have a huge problem with firing Thibs if his behavior caused problems within the organization, but to replace him with that without interviewing any other candidates and committing to a college coach for 5 years is insane.

According to sources, looks like Jo is going to the Knicks for an average of about 18 mil.

I will do nothing but cheer for Jo. I will always remember him as one of my favorite Bulls of all time. Knicks are paying a lot of money but I hope he does awesome there. I figured as soon as Rose went there that Noah was going to go home.

I don't believe the cap floor is much of an issue for the Bulls.

Well, you can only move down a couple spots from where you picked. For example, I think if you had the worse record, you can't pick lower than like 3 or something.
