WHarris1 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Yes, Blake is a Laker. And I'm glad we didn't pay Livingston 7 over 2. Yes we need a backup point, but that's gonna be a 10-14 mpg spot for us. I'd rather sign someone cheaper and put real money elsewhere.

LittleHurt05 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 14, 2010 -> 01:48 PM) The Charlotte PG right now are DJ Augustin and Luther Head, as far as I can tell. Not only would they probably be willing to bid up from there...but if Livingston thinks he still has anything left, he's nearly guaranteed a ton more playing time in Charlotte. When did Luther sign with Charlotte? I remember him signing a 2-year deal with New Orleans, and it just came out today that he failed his physical with them and won't be signing with the Hornets anymore.

LOL, I saw that on Yahoo and another site, but can't find any transaction having him go from the Pacers to the Bobcats. Either way, sounds like his Hornets contract is null and void anyway so I guess hes a FA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact... I was back and forth on wanting him over Livingston. Unless the Bulls really want a true veteran like Skip to my Lou, Dooling, Earl Watson (who I like also.. know what your going to get), or House. I'm happy for Shaun though. Got a decent contract and he's probably going to start there. Really good for him. Bulls could also go the trade route, though that might be unnecessary for a backup. Might as well should bring back Law if that is the case. Edited July 14, 2010 by SoxAce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thxfrthmmrs Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 (edited) QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 14, 2010 -> 02:23 PM) Why, did someone kick you? nice catch man ... limb - limp same difference. About Omer Asik From Wikipedia Asik suffered ligament damage while training with the Turkey national basketball team in the summer of 2008 and was forced to undergo surgery. He did not return to action until March 2009 after Fenerbahce had finished its Euroleague season. December/2009 - Omer Asik, whom the Chicago Bulls project to be a contributor once his Turkish contract expires after this season, broke his collarbone and is expected to miss two months following surgery. It's the second significant injury for Asik, 23, who missed most of last season following knee surgery to repair torn ligaments. The Bulls packaged three second-round picks to acquire the 7-foot center, who could be in training camp in October 2010. Asik suffered his latest injury during a Euroleague game for Fenerbahce Ulker. Looks like this guy is a bit of an injury prone and had some knee surgeries in the past. For a 7 footer, it's gonna be problematic. From what I've read, he is a great shot blocker, but his offensive game is limited. Base on his injuries and lack of offensive game, should we hunt for an scoring big man, perhaps bringing back Brad, so he can serve as an insurance, if not a mentor for our youngsters?

I'm sure there's a lot more details there, but Simmons is reading in ad papers that the total amount of ad sales was about $6 million, and that's where the early reports were as well. There's obviously some expenses for all the private jets and prop kids, whatever, but that can't possibly cover $3.5 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even if he isn't (he is, but that's irrelevant), that's 3 PGs, not 4. My opinion of Kahn is summed up pretty well in this post. I think he's gotten a bad rap by the media for no real reason. As of today, the franchise is in a much better position than it was before he came here, and we have a ton of young talent and other assets.
