Turned it off and screen is black. Total goner. Barely 6 months old. Called Samsung so sending it in. I'm sure they'll find some semblance of something that happened to the phone which voided my warranty. Sprint did say they'd get me a replacement for $75, however, I am cheap and want free. Will go back to my old iphone for a week. Not impressed though. This is why you buy your phones at Best Buy. Also, I'm done with Androids. iPhone 6 will be mine.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 15, 2014 -> 12:35 PM) Nobody is taking boozer, but also they then couldn't sign Pau, and the Wolves already have Love and Pekovic as offensive forwards who cannot guard. That would not really get Bulls anywhere. Also, I'm not really wanting to become the Knicks trading away our draft picks at every turn just to dump players. The Wolves have s*** and they know it. They're going to have Andrew Wiggins soon enough and be in full-on rebuild mode. That's why you give them the picks to take Boozer while also taking the contract they're trying to toss into every Love deal in Kevin Martin.

I sure hope the Bulls are trying to solve their guard issues right now creatively. Boozer + Dunleavy + Kings Pick + unprotected 2015 1st + a whatever else is needed contract-wise to get Kevin Martin from the Timberwolves, whom no one wants. I don't care if he doesn't get to the line 8 times per game anymore, we could still use that 3 point threat on the roster. You have to make a move to make THIS TEAM better. Our window is at most 2 more years with Noah reaching 30 and Pau being old. Get creative for f***'s sake.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 15, 2014 -> 10:55 AM) Ya but how's his jump shot? I did not click delete swiftly enough. I imagine Heller's jumpshot is quite broke.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Jul 15, 2014 -> 10:42 AM) Pretty high body count last night on "24;" which was really only "12" My favorite part was at the end when President Heller was telling the Prime Minister his sob story about life. "I looked at this picture of this beautiful woman for 15 minutes and couldn't figure out who it was. Then I realized it was my daughter, Audrey." OH BOO F*CKING HOO OLD MAN - he had that s*** going on, but he still didn't resign his position as POTUS? b****, please. Other than that, I enjoyed the season, though it didn't have much in the way of climactic scenes.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jul 15, 2014 -> 12:00 AM) This No thanks on OJ Mayonnaise I like the sig update.

3 days til Destiny Beta.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 05:10 PM) I don't think you spend that money unless you think Mayo will get in shape and be productive. Playing for Thibs and on a roster with Noah, he'd do so or wind up with his ass beat. Great buy-low option there if you can unload MDJ as well to make the cap work.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 01:41 PM) Here is the pile of crap current free agent crop of guards we can try to convince to take the vet min: Udrih, Beno Stuckey, Rodney Sessions, Ramon Rush, Brandon Ridnour, Luke Murry, Toure Moore, E’Twaun Mack, Shelvin (RFA) Johnson, Wesley Douglas, Toney Douglas-Roberts, Chris Crawford, Jordan Brooks, Aaron Brooks, MarShon Henry, Xavier Temple, Garrett What say you, Soxtalk? ^

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 01:15 PM) Does Rosenbloom think 90% of the NBA is another form of Carlos Boozer? Today he says Gasol is Spanish for Boozer. When I was listening to the Score several weeks ago, he was actually saying Love was just a better shooting Boozer. Rosenbloom is Spanish for "overpaid blowhard".

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 12:56 PM) Technically, Pau can create his own shot in the post, much more so then Boozer or anyone else we've ever had could down in the post. Not to the extent he once could but he is extremely nifty and efficient in the paint. Wait, Boozer's high-arching fadeaway from 18 feet was "shot creation"!??!?!?

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 12:44 PM) Unstoppable? Jason Richardson didn't play at all last year, only played 33 games in 2012-2013 (and was pretty bad when he did play) and is 33 years old. He may be done. Wroten can't shoot at all so I don't think he is a good fit either. Wroten was the get there, and we're talking a backup who can run the point. Richardson was just contract filler who can still hit some 3's.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 12:36 PM) This season the league is wide open. Spurs dominated last year, but will be a year older, and, well, the West is so difficult, you really don't know who will come through. I don't think the Wizards did anything to put them over the top (no Pierce won't be that difference maker). Pacers, who knows, they should be one of the 2 or 3 best teams, but you really never know. Bulls / Cavs should be 2 of the 3 best and the Nets should remain a top 5-6 team (with Lopez back). Heat will be relevant (not a title contender) but that relevance depends on Bosh taking his game back to star levels and Wade playing a bit. Agreed with everything above. If the Bulls could just magically swap Dunleavy for a guard, I'd feel a lot more comfortable. I don't think anyone wants Rose getting 38 mpg, but when your only backup is Kirk, who is going to miss, at minimum, 20 games, that's a scary proposition. I can't imagine the Bulls' offseason is done yet. They should send like 5 picks with Boozer to Philly to make something happen with Richardson and Wroten. Then this team would be unstoppable.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 12:06 PM) I was in Cleveland this weekend for the Sox series. People were chanting his name on the street, yelling it from cars and selling the most ridiculous shirts. There was "The Return" shirt, "For6iven", "The Kingdom Restored" and a mesh of Lebron's face with the Chief Wahoo logo (Yep, really). It was nuts. Life is so much better with LeBron in Cleveland. People can (mostly) stop hating him now.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 11:54 AM) You take the best player off any team, and they are screwed. No s***, Sherlock. Our best player just happens to have missed most of the last three seasons which makes the statement mandatory.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 11:44 AM) This team reminds me of the 2010-2011 Bulls team on crack if Rose can be healthy. Being a Bulls fan is like playing the "in bed" game with fortune cookies. Every statement has to end with "if Rose is healthy".

The Bulls need to get creative here and get some ballers who can put the ball in the basket. http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=pa2wc5k Give them enough picks here to make the move worthwhile on their end. Should leave us within the cap assuming you dump Dunleavy. Probably unrealistic. Probably cap stupid and wrong. But whatever. I'm too busy at work today to do match. Hell, the trade machine might even be wrong for all I know. /useless post

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 10:47 AM) Sessions or Brooks or someone like that I presume. I actually like Ramon Sessions, that said, he's not on the roster. MarShon needs to show me somethin'.

so - rose sits out, and kirk has one of his 11 injuries a season - who plays guard?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 08:37 AM) So basically all the SGs on their roster are either PG's or SF's slightly out of position right? That's what we're looking at - Dunleavy and McDermott at SG!

Man, the guard play on this roster is going to be atrocious.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 07:09 PM) Poll: would you rather have signed Pierce for 2 and $11 million or Nikola Mirotic for 3 and $17 million? I'd rather have the top prospect with fresh legs than the dinosaur. Every GM in the NBA would agree.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 05:13 PM) @nikolamirotic12 52s I am very happy and excited to announce that next season I will be playing with the @chicagobulls . Today I fulfill a dream. #BullsNation I think Nikola is going to sign dirt cheap. Still, thef***'s starting at the 3?

Nice work by a Redditer.
