ZoomSlowik Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 31, 2012 -> 10:44 PM) Well, at least this shows the Bulls are willing to go over the cap. Pretty much everyone is going to assume Boozer gets amnestied after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 31, 2012 -> 10:38 PM) That is a bad, bad contract. He wanted somewhere in the 40's and probably would have got it in free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd_city_saint787 Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Considering Asik got 3/25 I think Taj at 4/38 isn't bad...Just hope he's making that money as a starter next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomSlowik Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I'll put it this way, it's not as bad as giving DeMar DeRozan $10 million a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Oct 31, 2012 -> 10:42 PM) That seems like a lot, but you know damn well someone would give it to him in the off-season (probably back-loaded so the Bulls couldn't match). Way too much I would of waited and seen what someone else offered him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now my for sure are Lakers, Heat, Timberwolves. Leaning towards the Clippers for my third Western conference team. Not sure on a second Eastern conference team. I'd get the best team from each division, and avoid the Heat honestly as they'll likely be on TNT/ESPN/NBA TV for 70% of their games. Same with the Lakers, with their 9:30 starts for most of their games, you'll see those anyway. You gotta think this through. Houston is a good one, as is Minnesota.

Steve9347 Posted November 1, 2012 Author Share Posted November 1, 2012 Honestly, with NBA TV I just can't justify any version of League Pass (though, I just looked at it and that 5-team is a ripoff). Why would you pay $26.99 per month for 5 teams when you could pay $39.99 for all teams? Or pay $0 and watch NBA TV? Seriously, don't waste your money on that stuff. Unless you have the world's worst cable package, you get NBA TV. That means every night you get games or NBA Gametime. Then ESPN does their NBA Coast to Coast on other nights. NBA Gametime (NBA TV) - live lookins to games around the league, basically NFL RedZone for NBA fans. NBA Coast to Coast (ESPN/ESPN2) - same as above. Tuesday and Thursday nights - NBA on TNT Wednesday and Friday nights - NBA on ESPN Random other nights - Bulls on CSN/CLTV/WGN Random other nights - games on NBA TV Save your money!

Chisoxfn Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 31, 2012 -> 07:36 PM) Kirk was just awful in general today. He's better at running an offense then Nate. Nate was terrible at times yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being better at running an offense than Nate Robinson is quite an awful qualifier. Kirk dribbles down the shot clock like a dick, but he should be better than he was last night on most nights. He was rusty due to the groin injury. The Bulls are going to be a 5-7 seed without Rose. That should be fun to watch - I enjoyed the game last night despite the extreme lack of players that are exciting. They need to get Taj more minutes, and they should with Asik gone. I see no reason why he can't get 25-30mpg playing PF and C in today's NBA, but he only had 19 last night after averaging 20 last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomSlowik Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 (edited) With the Bulls out... Heat Thunder Lakers Spurs Clips I think those 5 would give you the most consistently entertaining basketball. They're all contenders with star power that can put the ball in the net on a regular basis. The T-Wolves will eventually be entertaining, but much less so until Love and/or Rubio get back (about a month for Love, I think January for Rubio).
