Well that knocks Houston out of the running. Down to us, LA, NY and Dallas.

This is good for us. Dwight is an idiot.

I want Melo to join us and make Lebron think to himself....I should have joined them 4 years ago.

If Lebron joined us 4 years ago, instead of going through what he has now our team would still look like this.

Rose
Butler
Lebron
Bosh/Mirotic
Noah/Taj

Rose wouldn't have as much money ( wouldn't have got MVP ) and might not have ever gotten a torn ACL.

Not to mention I can almost guarantee we would have 3 championships.

Melo come here and show Lebron what he missed out on.

Man it's crazy to think right now that Bulls brass is going over all the situations and scenarios to Melo that we've been discussing for months and months now

Agreed. As someone who has been in a meeting with Dwight before, this bodes well for us.

This guy took Friedell's negativity, who is he?

I wonder what Carmelo's reaction will be when the Bulls tell him they can only offer him a 14-15M/yr contract..

The United Center looks fantastic....very proud of the Bulls for doing that!

Damn man. A 1/2 white with hot and mild sauce, salt and pepper would really calm my nerves right now.

I'm sure Melo knows all about Harold's. He has to? If not. Get him there now.

Sorry, it looks terribly tacky.

So the Sun-Times unearthed this quote from February:

“I’m going to make money. I have money. I’m good if I want to retire right now,’’ Anthony said in a February interview on ESPN. “As far as the money, it don’t really matter to me. If I go somewhere else, I get paid. If I stay in New York, I get paid. As far as the money goes, it’s not my concern.

“My concern is to be able to compete on a high level, a championship level, coming in this last stretch of my career. I want to compete at that level.’’

I'd never read it before.

So have Noah, Taj and Rose been seen in/around the United Center? Or are they waiting in the new practice facility like surprise!? "I don't know if you heard me counting but I was on 100"

Madison · Post #155 » by **Madison** » Tue Jul 1, 2014 6:41 pm

So who do we think made the opening remarks from the Bulls side? My guess is Jerry or Gar.

Noah was seen walking into the UC. KC reported that Rose would be "made available" and I think someone else said Taj might be part of the pitch. I think it's more likely that Melo hangs out separately with Jo, Rose, and Taj after Melo finishes meeting with Bulls management.

Noah has been spotted walking to the UC and smiling at fans, happy mood.
Taj is somewhere near the Hancock building, probably part 2 of the melo wooing
Rose is in the batcave right now about to roll up.

Everybody needs to keep their mouth shut and let Thibs and Noah do the talking.
