Bulls are insignificant right now.

I'm hoping Miller comes back so the Bulls have someone for Rajon Rondo to punch in the face I give a flying fuck about.

Hard hat'd.

Boiler Up, Foreskin, Indiana.

Redick is still a ponce, but he's turning into a pretty good pro.  He can obviously shoot, and he's a decent passer and a willing, if not particularly athletic defender.  He's a much better player than Kyle Korver, and I liked the Korver signing.

I'd say it's still even money that Orlando will keep Redick.  They're trying to trade Marcin Gortat to cut down on how much luxury tax they would have to pay, they'd trade Brandon Bass, too, good luck with accomplishing either.

KC seems to think the Bulls castoffs most likely to come back are Brad Miller, Flip Murray and Acie Law.  Flip's a nice bench piece, as long as the coach (unlike Vinny) knows that Flip will shoot every time he has the ball, so you need to take him out of the game when you don't want him to shoot.  Acie should be a solid backup 1, though he hasn't been to this point, and Miller is a less handsome version of Mehmet Okur and Okur and the Booz worked well together in Mormonton.  

The fucking Heat are going to be a beast, but the Bulls should be one of the four best teams in the East next year, and if Paxson and Gar keep the roster flexible until they have to lock Derrick and Joakim up to extensions, you'd be surprised what kinds of opportunities to trade for that one needed difference maker crop up every year.  Garnett and Pau are the two most recent examples.  The Bulls have one bad contract left (Luol) and you can deal with one, a second one limits your options.  (Cough, cough, Ben Wallace, Larry Hughes, cough, cough).

So you pre-ordered your Bulls Arenas jersey already?

Not that Ilgauskas is a huge difference maker, but that whole argument people were making that the Heat wouldn't be able to fill out a roster around the big 3 is looking pretty flimsy right now, with Haslem, Miller and Ilgauskas on board.

Still, the Bulls have a much brighter future than the Cubs, and they've handled this offseason about as well as possible, knowing that Bosh, James and Wade were probably never really an option and Amare and Joe Johnson are way overpaid.

Shhhhh.... You're not supposed to say stuff like that. You'll be labeled a troll and your dick will fall off.

If Rose starts making three pointers, it is going to be a fun season.

Really, really good article by Adrian Woj on the entire LeBron saga. A bit long, but well worth the read.

A few tidbits...

Before the Cavaliers ever reached out to him, Izzo turned down a less lucrative offer to coach the Chicago Bulls.

For everything the Bulls tried to sell – from owner Jerry Reinsdorf to GM Gar Forman to coach Tom Thibodeau – there had been one thing that troubled James' about the Bulls pitch: Derrick Rose never called and tried to recruit him.
Chicago officials never directly requested Rose to reach out with a call, and the young point guard felt James could've always reached out to him had he wanted to discuss the possibility of playing together. James needed to be courted, needed to be wooed and apparently it surprised him there was a star who wasn't falling over himself to do that.

Overall, the article doesn't paint LeBron in a very good light, particularly at the beginning.

Go Bulls.

I love how this is always the conclusion that reporters reach. No I don't. I actually hate that. I guess if his weed carriers hand him the phone to answer your text messages he's a warrior with a heart that's true, ready to transcend trancsendance with a flare and gusto not seen since... since... dare we say it? If not, he's a pampered puss and fuck him for thinking he's going to transcend anything ever.
