Chisoxfn Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 5, 2012 -> 08:41 PM) With how the FA market has been playing off so far, any chance Bulls get Howard on a last minute desperate ALL IN decision to compete (on both sides)? about the only real impact move the Bulls could make, which would make me feel really good about the squad going forward, is getting Howard. I don't think it will happen, but part of me says, screw it, go all in and hope he'll sign later on. Do the Bulls lose out the ability to offer a longer deal to Dwight then anyone else, since he wouldn't spend a full year with the team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 6, 2012 -> 09:54 AM) Dallas fans are going nuts. In my extreme pipedream, Dirk gets restless too and Bulls trade for him at midseason. Yeah. The problem with Dirk is the Bulls might be solid this year, but really, they are a year away from being able to contend again. Getting Dirk could make the Bulls a contender next year and the following year, but after that they are in trouble. Dwight would put them in a spot that they could do it next year, but then in the following years they would be legit. Worse case I'd structure the deal where if Dwight walks, you'd clear cap space and could make other moves. Be ballsy and just try and win Dwight over when he's here. To be frank, staying with the status quo doesn't do the Bulls any good, so might as well do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 6, 2012 -> 01:14 PM) There's some grumblings that the Bulls might match the Asik offer. Shoot me in the f***ing eyeball if that happens. Best case scenario for the Bulls is to deal Asik before he actually signs the deal. Otherwise, if they ink him, they have to hold him for a year. The key is if they keep him, they'd have to move him prior to when Gibson becomes due (cause Gibson is far more valuable). Bulls screwed up. They should have moved Asik at the deadline, but no one could have known that Rose would end up going down (and a team expecting to win a title isn't going to trade a guy like Asik). What the Bulls need to do is start figuring out ways to get salary cap exceptions via trade (like the Lakers did when the dealt Odom). Those can come in extremely handy when you are over the cap (as long as you are willing to potentially be willing to pay some tax). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That funky motion Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jul 6, 2012 -> 03:27 PM) He has too much interest from other teams. He'll get more than the MLE. Unless he wants to take a Chicago discount, but i'm not sure why he would. His wife and kid still live here and he loves Chicago. I have a business right by the Berto center and all the Bulls and coaches come in. Kurt was heartbroken when he was traded and he still comes in during the summer months. I would always kid with him and say, when you coming back to the Bulls. He would always reply with, I wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm like 99% sure you can't trade a guy once he signs an offer sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) Oh, and somebody needs to tell Rose that not wanting to recruit because you believe/don't want to disrespect your teammates isn't really accomplishing anything. You've got a torn ACL to recover from and multiple superteams to deal with. It might not mean anything. But yes, if a superstar, or even a f***ing all-star, is out there somewhere, make it known that you WANT him. The guy did win an MVP at 22, and I would imagine that gives him some clout. Don't worry about hurting Deng or Noah's feelings. Edited July 7, 2012 by Jordan4life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
