So if the Bulls trade Tyrus to the Knicks for Al Harrington this is just another thing we can blame VDN for, isn't it?

Considering the insignificance of this team and that really the main focus is the 2010 off-season, I'll take all the expiring contracts we can get.

Except the Bulls have no obligation to Tyrus for next season, so this move wouldn't help with cap space.  The only way the Bulls can get more cap room for next summer is to trade Kirk or Deng.

Fine,then blame Adrian Woj for this line:

The Bulls believe Harrington's ability to score coupled with a $10.2 million expiring contract make this a worthy exchange.

I just assumed this meant that the expiring contract was the good part of the deal, since no one would actually claim that Al Harrington himself would be a reason to make a trade.
I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

Totally understandable, considering he's been on 7 teams in the last 5 seasons.
If this team was one scorer away from really competing, you can make a case for Harrington, but they're just not that close.

I'll just confine this to the Bulls thread, since very few people actually care about the team.

I'm going to be in Chicago this weekend. Ivy6, myself and another buddy of mine are going to the Bulls-Celtics game on Saturday night.  Our fourth guy backed out, so we still have a ticket available.  The seats are in the 200 level and are $125.  A bit pricey, but I'm sure you'll get to watch the Bulls lose by 48 points and hang out with us, all while trying to figure out what to say to some complete strangers you sort of know from the Internet it'll be a great time.

We're checking with a few other people, but if anyone is interested in coming along, drop me a PM.

Careful what you joke about?

Way to go Bulls. You truly are insignificant.

This loss to the Nets may be my favorite moment of the Vinny Del Dumbfuck era.

I think he's more of the appendix of Desipio.  Yeah, it's here and you're vaguely aware of it, but only if reminded.  The only time anyone notices it is when it ruptures (on Weebs in the video game thread).  Beyond that, though, it's basically useless and offers no redeeming value.

I fly out late in the afternoon on Sunday, so I'll at least be able to follow up the Bulls' 30 point loss on Saturday by seeing some of the Bears' 30 point loss on Sunday.  I love Chicago sports.

Bulls down, right on cue (que), by 31 to the Hawks in the 4th quarter.

Vinny, your plane is boarding.

They were really terrible.  They pretty much just gave up, which I hope is b/c Vinny is still the coach.  They have to fire him.

Went to ESPN to check the score.  It was nice of them to make it easy to find on the front page.

You two wanna go stick your wangs in a hornet's nest, it's a free country.  But how come I always gotta get sloppy seconds, huh?
