Screw Melo. If he wants to win 35 games a year let him remain irrelevant.

I love how we're having a go at Melo because apparently he's already made a decision not to come to Chicago.

SN sources: Pacers 'quietly' shopping big man Roy Hibbert

After a flurry of rumors dating back a little more than a month, there has not been much to speak of when it comes to the possibility of Indiana moving center Roy Hibbert in a trade. But, according to multiple front-office sources, the Pacers have quietly sought out possible new landing spots for their enigmatic big man.
“I would say they’ve been doing that, but quietly,” one front-office source said.
The problem, of course, remains the two years and $30 million left on Hibbert’s contract, part of a max four-year deal he signed as a restricted free agent two summers ago. That is a weighty number for a guy who disappeared for long stretches in March and April, and continued to do so in the postseason, during which he averaged 9.3 points and 5.5 rebounds.

He's coming to Chicago, who can resist the charm of Noah and Taj

Re: Around the NBA 16: Summer time
Crazy question.
Me and other Heat fans are starting to feel a "bit of sweat" from all these LeBron rumors.
If you Bulls fans could choose only option...
1. Carmelo signs with the Bulls...but LeBron returns to the Heat.
or
2. Carmelo stays in NY (or goes to LA) and LeBron leaves the Heat.
What would Bulls fans choose?

What makes you think either option would be close to the other? You think the Bulls fans care about the Heat SO much that they'd turn down welcoming the best or 2nd best scorer in the NBA just so LBJ leaves the Heat?
Don't get me wrong, we as Bulls fans are definitely obsessed with this era of the Heat, but not that much so...

I'd rather have option 1.

Rose / Nick Young / Butler / Taj / Noah McD, Mirotic, DJ, Kirk, Smith off the bench.
That frontcourt is absolutely ridiculous defensively. Nick Young could nap on that end of the court and we'd be okay.
