QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 25, 2013 -> 04:01 PM) I've got nothing on twitter or anywhere else, so lets hope its a rumor. Looks like Trestman kind of shot it down.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 25, 2013 -> 03:12 PM) Where are the reports? It was being reported on the Score.

So there are reports coming out that Cutler may be done for the season with a torn tendon in his ankle. Awesome.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Nov 25, 2013 -> 02:24 PM) Anybody peep Miami's offensive efficiency so far? A TEAM true shooting percentage of 61.7%. That's cartoon s***. Michael Beasley has also been really good in his limited minutes. Sucks that the Heat were able to bring him in for nothing.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 25, 2013 -> 12:39 PM) We need a David Stern lottery fix to get Jabari on the Bulls next year. Come on Stern, one last hoorah. I'd be perfectly happy with Randle or Wiggins as well. Plus, guys like Smart and Exum would be pretty solid as well. There are a lot of of good options in this draft.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 25, 2013 -> 12:06 PM) I agree. What I'm saying is that GarPax have to try to get maximum value for these guys. There may not be that many teams, 10 games into the season, that want to work out some deals with us. How many games will we win in the meantime? Perhaps too many to get the kind of pick we want. For Boozer and Deng you need to try to maximize value. Hinrich isn't going to get anything of value so trade him today for a second round pick and force Thibs to play Teague 30+ minutes a game. That will put you on the right track to tanking right off the bat.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 25, 2013 -> 11:54 AM) You can tank, but you first have to get rid of your star players and you have to do it quickly If you trade Deng, Boozer and Hinrich this team will be really bad. Hinrich isn't even a good player but Teague is so awful that playing him 35 minutes a game is worth several losses. Plus, Noah and Butler are both locks to miss a bunch of time so you are going to have a joke of a roster. I'm sure the Bulls can give Hinrich away for a 2nd round pick and hopefully they can find deals for Deng and Boozer.

If the Bulls are smart and tank this could be their San Antonio Spurs 1996-1997 season that led to them getting Duncan and being able to pair Robinson and Duncan for their frontline. But sadly GarPax will probably keep the status quo and the Bulls will limp into the playoffs setting the franchise back.

Someone needs to change the thread title.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Nov 24, 2013 -> 06:11 PM) I'd be shocked if they traded Noah or Taj, that's not their style. I'm pretty much assuming we're going to see Rose (hopefully), Butler, Mirotic/Taj and Noah on the roster next year. That's not an awful start, but they clearly need to add to it. I'm hoping to god they get whatever they can for Deng and Boozer, though I'm not even sure they have the stones for that. Deng should be easier to move, they're are a couple of teams trying to make the playoffs that might be a good fit like Washington (Porter?), Cleveland, Milwaukee, Toronto if they want to dump Gay (he only has one year left past this one), maybe Charlotte, Denver or Sacramento. Boozer, I don't know. You're probably going to have to take on someone's headache. I'd dump Hinrich for literally anything as well. Having Teague play starters minutes is a good way to tank.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 24, 2013 -> 11:31 PM) I don't see why. He waited a whole off-season and still got hurt. At this point he should know that it is what it is. If he's cleared, get out there and try. I'm guessing the mindf*** is that he has now had two serious knee injuries without any contact on either play. How do you have any confidence in your body after that?

Bruce Weber and KSU lose to a Charlotte team that already lost to College of Charleston this year. It appears despite being a terrible recruiter he actually found a couple good freshmen this year so they might not be a complete clusterf*** the next couple of years but I doubt that continues considering his last couple high school commitments have been from kids with no other even halfway decent offers.

Looking like another year without an NCAA appearance for Northwestern. ll That was an absolutely terrible loss tonight. The Collins era not off to a good start.

Trestmann got really lucky. Awful clock management there.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 16, 2013 -> 03:38 PM) If a top ranked SEC team has a tough game in conference it's "depth." Just saying. Not if it was against Arkansas.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 05:12 PM) Who is that guy doing a bump next to him? His dad

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 04:34 PM) Cliff also said Lyle will be joining him. And KU will manufacture their transcripts to make sure Lyle is eligible from Day 1.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 04:24 PM) Worst day in Illinois basketball history? Deon Thomas/Bruce Pearl sanctions trumps this by a large margin. The day they hired Bruce Weber was also worse, we just didn't know it at the time.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 04:20 PM) He is either REALLY nervous, or an idiot. Both (and not for picking KU but it isn't a secret his grades are really bad).

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 04:17 PM) Did he seriously just pick up the Illinois hat and put it down. Wow. Awesome day Yep

Lol, Cliff not signing today so even after he commits somewhere this one isn't over. Awesome.

Jerry Meyer now saying latest buzz is Cliff to DePaul. None of these guys know anything with respect tot his recruitment. Alexander has done a remarkable job keeping this one under wraps.

QUOTE (Brian @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 01:23 PM) 247 Reporting Cliff to Kansas. Somehow. Would not surprise me at all but I would be shocked if the guy that broke that story actually knows.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 11:16 AM) So if a kid commits to SIU, blows up his senior year and ILL offers him its dirty? I understand it hurts to lose a good player but its clearly not dirty. The defending champs called, offered, and he accepted. He has basically never not had an offer from them. He had a chance to decommit from Illinois 2 months ago when Lyle decommitted from Louisville and they said they weren't going to go back to Louisville and that their commitment was solid. The family has zero integrity.
