Source close to me says Bulls have Boozer if they want him

Doug Thonus on 07.02.10 at 3:22 PM | 2 comments

I've been told the meeting between the Bulls and Boozer went well and that the Bulls have Carlos Boozer locked up if they want him. Whether they move forward will be based on the results of their meetings with Bosh and Lee tonight and whether they want to enter their meeting with LeBron with Boozer or Lee locked up for sure to enter with a shot at Bosh still.

It's also possible [my own theorizing] that they could go into the meeting with Boozer virtually locked up and present their team to LeBron based on different contingencies.

I throw this out there with the typical "grain of salt" caveat. When news filters down to a small time reporter like me you should always be suspicious, so let's not go nuts with the "Doug said this and Doug wouldn't lie".

No, I wouldn't lie, but we've all played "telephone" and I'm not talking to Boozer or Gar Forman here, so you never know how this stuff can alter as it gets filtered by the time it reaches me.

It's not hard to believe. Why would Boozer pick anyone else, especially if Bosh is to Miami and Amare to NY?

I was worried when we lost Joe Johnson; it's nice to know that we have a close-to-guaranteed fall back option/ top free agent.

Probably....Jack that rumor that Doug posted said July 3rd was the date LBJ would sign with us.

Tomorrow is that day.

Seriously we must have a great pitch if Boozer indeed waits for our call.

Good deal. I'll take Boozer. Much rather have Bosh but... well I think we all know where he's going.
