This is depressing.

That's a nice squad. That team have youth and good 3pt shooting.


And no shot creation.

This insanity will never end.

Butler
Dunleavy

Why are people shocked? We all knew going in, the Bulls weren't offering money, they were offering success.

I posted this a few page back but a reported for the New York Post said his sources claimed that the Bulls floated the idea of a deal starting around $16 million.

Story soon to hit online: ESPN sources say Rockets will turn attention to trying to pry Chris Bosh out of Miami IF Melo passes on Houston

Translation: The ESPN website isn't getting enough hits. Throw something else at the wall and get more attention.

That was Marc Berman. He's a mouthpiece for James Dolan.

In the words of MoneyMitch

It's not about the money, B

It's about driving these fly ass cars

It's about f*cking those skeezers right over there

And it's about never dressing like a niqqa like you, B

Wade's home aint Chicago, it's Miami. We don't want him in Chicago especially after his comments about the organization.

G Rose/DJ

If we missed out on Melo, that's a very nice line-up if you ask me. It's similar to the Spurs.

Return to Chicago Bulls
