Lebron/Bulls gossip & rumors (merging)

[lu9]

Anybody else catch the front page of ESPNchicago.com ? It kind of gave me goosebumps. That picture looks better than the other photoshopped ones i've seen.

Where is it?

Just go to espnchicago.com, i'm talking about the picture in the front where lebron is standing with his arms spread.

Got it! I didn't read so well. went to espn.com instead. +1 on the photo.

Awesome pictures. Let's hope it becomes reality this off-season.

to-the-minute chances lebron ends up on a particular team (bodog):

41% cavs
23% bulls
20% knicks
8% heat
8% nets

those 3 gm's could make a boatload putting their money where their mouths are

Why not Chicago?
*Chicago as a city is Cleveland squared.
*Want to build your legacy? Ask The President of the United States what Chicago did for his career.
If not him...Ask Oprah, or Michael Jordan, or Mike Ditka.
*Kevin Garnet gave the best advice to LeBron when he said, Loyalty is something that hurts you sometimes. Cause, you can't get youth back. What's Lebron supposed to do with the ageing front court he has to play with in Cleveland.
*If Lebron were to sign w/Chicago, he will be beginning a new chapter in his basketball career. 99% of the players who have played in the NBA had to move to another team before finding out what fits them best.

Per Chris Mannix of SI, Mike Brown will be fired today.

I'm not "feeling", as the kids like to say, Jersey Number 6:

Gerry Ward
Jim Burns
Ken Wilburn
Erwin Mueller
Bob Kauffman
A.W. Holt
Brad Sellers (yes, he also ruined #2 forever)
Trent Tucker
Matt Steigenga
Lari Ketner
Khalid Reeves
Travis "Speed Dribble for 23.5 Seconds, Then Launch a Contested Two-Pointer with Tip Toe on Three-Point Stripe" Best
Chris "Sham's Man Love" Jefferies
Randy Holcomb
Shannon Brown

That is one motley crew. Perhaps LeBron can think of some other mathematical function involving the whole numbers 2 and 3?

5, the next number in the Fibonacci sequence. He's the next Jalen Rose.

so will it be harder for



to follow in



shadow...or LBJ in MJ's.

Hope this can be settled with out a JB poll.

[organix85]

LOL Skip and Rob on ESPN says his supporting cast in Chicago is 'suspect' and may not even be better than his cast in Cleveland.

Also even ASKED if D Rose is better than anyone on Cleveland! LMAO comedy

They said playing in MJ's shadow, he'd have to win 6 just to get out of his shadow....

I never understood this. He will always be in Jordan's shadow unless he wins 6....whether he plays in Cleveland...NY...or Chicago. As a matter of fact, he's already in MJ's shadow. I hear the comparison all the time.

When their careers are over and people debate who was better, it will still come down to number of championships...not where they were won them. If anything, LeBron has a better chance of passing Jordan if he does it in Chicago. Being that most Bulls fans will support their guy no matter what, we'd never admit LeBron is better if he was a Knick. You convince Chicago that you are better than Jordan...then you are better than Jordan.

Just banter but man ESPN is starting to ride the Chicago Train.

[punkmodafunk]

This would be AWESOME.. we gotta do everything we can to get him playing with our jersey..

But I think he'll go to NY for the money and not to be compared to Jordan.. he would prefer to make his own work in a place that he won't be considered a MJ's shadow..

Anyways I hope he'll sign 4 us this summer.

Its from Scoop like you said, but who knows.

God it would be a dream come true

[ScottyKCMO]

I'v been waiting for somebody to start this thread, because I wasn't sure if it had already been brought up in a different one...LOL.

If this rumor is true, this might be the best news we've heard so far.

It's hard to imagine LeBron not coming away impressed after spending a good amount of time talking to Derrick, and realizing how humble he is, how much he just wants to win, how serious he takes his profession, and how great he would be as sidekick for the next decade. IMO, these two would be the most electrifying duo we've ever seen in the NBA. It's perfect too because LeBron is a few years older, and can sort of take that leadership role....while Derrick doesn't really want all the spot light on himself anyway.
