Bulls sounded like they were after Arron Afflalo, but he's been traded to the Nuggets for Evan Fournier and the 56th pick in tonight's draft. That's a terrible scrub trade. They basically dumped Afflalo for nothing to clear cap space. Who does that to a player worth a damn?

allowing Afflalo to land somewhere else "could" keep the Bulls in the Melo sweepstakes.

time will tell.

Thats the Nuggets pick. Bulls traded both of their 1st round picks for Doug McDermott.

 

[m_dogg]

10-4

And they also got Anthony Randolph in that trade. Owed 1.8m next year. Probably going to be traded before season.

 

[Sprayin]

And WTF Charlotte, trading Shabazz to thr Heat for practically nothing.

 

[Marko]

Wade and Bosh opted out of their contracts and became free agents! Lol

 

[Flyn]

Heat are going to self destruct when they try to pay everyone.

 

[Sprayin]

Thats why they all opted out, to restructure their deals. Wade is not going to get paid. LeBron wants a max deal. And Bosh wont be on Miami next season

This could be a smoke and mirrors game for all we know. I believe Melo made up his mind already...

 

[Marko]

The Jew ( Jerry Reinsdorf ) that owns the Bulls is cheap! I think they had the fifth highest payroll in the East last season. I'd be surprised if they sign one of the big free agents!

 

[skeezer]

The Chicago Bulls are second at $61 million in profit reports

 

[skeezer]

Reinsdorf can SMD so bad.

 

[Marko]

The Chicago Bulls are second at $61 million in profit reports

Because of Michael Jordan and the six championships

THIS.

All day long, everything is already set up.

 

[skeezer]

what now?

 

[EmersonHart13]

Melo is going to the heat and they are keeping the other three. Rest of the team will be league minimum players.

And it will be stupid.

 

[firemandan1700]

^ Exactly. ^

The big three are playing it out. They will re-sign for cheaper deals, just to guarantee cap space and the ability to sign melo for an extended period.

Nothing like buying a dynasty team.The heat are acting like the Yankees, buying their dynasty.

 

[EmersonHart13]

I wanna be wrong, I really do.

 

[skeezer]

that would be retarded if he went to the heat

 

[skeezer]

i rather have kevin love anyways.

i thought him and derrick were friends. i'm sure love would want to play here.

 

[Intel]

He wants his ring.

 

[Marko]

Fuck the heat. I don't think they would offer Melo enough money. Melo will go to the highest bidder. Idk where though. Maybe Dallas or Houston or LA
