Some. Some were h8ers. And many were congratul8ers. And some still say they don't want him. Have you identified anyone specific changing their tune or has your cornhole gained access to your keyboard?

No crap sherlock. Dennis Rodman was the mortal enemy before he became a Bull. It happens to every team. They're an enemy until they're yours.


I thought you were going to make some additions/changes to your signature? :D

This board has gotten really, really good at dealing with trolls or even just mildly annoying fans from other teams. Sometimes I log on, read a few pages of a given thread, grab some popcorn, read some more and just laugh.

+1, QFT, +doug, etc.

If LeBron signs here, we're going to see a lot of them. So I'll be sure to have a popcorn machine ready.

And if we strike out or get stiffed with simply a Joe Johnson max, then we're going to be seeing a lot of a different kind. And the board might lose some of its recently acquired je ne sais quoi. Ah, the fickle finger of fate (and Waffle).

Didn't see this posted, so I thought I'd throw it up.

Terence Moore says it's Lebron and Doc to the Bulls

Didn't know who he was so wiki says 25 year sportswriter for AJC. Should have some sources, but throw it in the hopper with the rest of the speculation.

http://nba.fanhouse.com/2010/05/17/expe ... o-chicago/

"He's going to the Chicago Bulls.

Trust me.

Oh, and here's another thing: When LeBron James switches his dribbling home around the Great Lakes from Erie to Michigan, he'll bring his own coach with him.

It'll be Doc Rivers.

Now you can move on with the rest of your lives."

"You can attribute my thoughts on LeBron's future to a mighty whisper in a breeze from the Windy City."

Except Starks. He still deserves to be sodomized by a mastodon.

Couple of blurbs from Chad Ford's chat today (currently underway as I post this):

andreas (ny, ny)


bigger draw for LBJ on july 1st...calipari to the bulls, bosh to the nyk, or wall to the nets?

Chad Ford (1:04 PM)


Tough one. I think Calipari to the Bulls, then Bosh to the Knicks, then Wall to the Nets in that order. I keep hearing that the Bulls are atop his list at the moment. That could change, but that's the word around the league at the moment.

Michael (Colorado)


What are your top 3 teams for where Lebron James will end up playing next season. What is the team that lands him?

Chad Ford (1:05 PM)


1. Bulls. 2. Knicks 3. Heat ... I think the darkhorse is Dallas who'll try to acquire him via sign-and-trade. As for the Cavs, it doesn't look very good at the moment, but things can change. I think owner Dan Gilbert would essentially have to give him the GM job as well to keep him there.


The most interesting thing isn't the Bulls' ranking, its that he's completely ruled out Cleveland.

This place is going to be scorched earth if we max out Joe Johnson. It’s going to be a Reign of Terror-esque orgy of bannings.

Now i'm convinced. The Lebrentourage wearing a Bulls jersey, Lebron allegedly going home-shopping in Chicago, Lebron calling D-Rose to have a long chat and now this. Lebron is surrounded by PR Duracell bunnies and they are hyping his FA like nothing we've seen.

edit: Didn't see the specific thread for the news update.

Debunked, no. Badonkadonked, then, probably.
