Think of it this way Bynum can get on the court today and be productive for a few spot mins. No more UD at center that alone makes Bynum a no brainer. Did you see how easily the raps scored when UD was on the court as our center, we couldnt stop anyone.

I don't understand why people would be against us making this move.

It's a low risk high reward move. If he doesn't work out in the locker room, we cut him, and lose some chump change and James Jones. No big deal.

But the reward could be that we finally have a legit big man, one who is potentially among the most talented centers in the league.

This. I'm not even concerned about the cancer thing it is kinda overrated to me. If he acts up, we cut him simple as that. Just like mike beasley this would be his last chance.

I compare this to the Hanley Ramirez Situation we had for the Marlins.
He's a cancer on a bad team but a huge spark for a good team.

So what's the deal? It's the 7th. When do they release him or make him guaranteed?

What can the Heat offer him, in turn of a contract? I am not totally sure on what the Heat has to offer.

If this was already asked in this topic, by bad. There is a lot of pages to look at.

I would assume all his offers will be the vet min. HOWEVER, if the heat really wanted to. We do have the mmle in our back pocket. Which is 3 mil per year for up to 3 years. I seriously doubt they want to spend that on him though. Prob offer the min, if there is an offer at all.

Thanks. I know about the min. I was not sure if the Heat had anything thing else, they could use

Pretty sure the guarantee deadline is 5 PM.

Interesting. Wonder what they want with him? Or were they just trying to get rid of Deng? If they keep him are they trading Noah?

Surprised they traded Deng. That team is always afraid of making real changes :lol: Lets see how it goes.

@Probballdraft: Source with Bulls says the team will waive the physical for Bynum in order to waive him & comply with the 5:00 p.m. deadline.

Okay, he's getting waived. Only matter of time before his intentions become clear; sign or retire?

Bynum vs Oden for the chance to be called champion!
I would cut Mason for Bynum.

If you look at the Bulls twitter, it says they traded Deng for picks and the contract of Andrew Bynum

he will be hitting the market 100% by the end of tomorrow. I dont know how well he fits or what he has left, but I for sure want to be the team that tests it out.

IMO Mason is needed with Wade the way he is.

We got to try to dump Joel.
