I say for sure you offer a max to Thompson.

But there are three interesting questions to be asked for Bulls...

Do you think Irving is a cancer enough not to offer a max? It’s hard to lead when you are a weird idiot.

How much do you offer FA Cousins?

How much do you offer Celtics RFA Rozier?

Rozier is interesting because they can match, but he is also a jitterbug scoring PG at our position of greatest need.

Fact is Celtics were more dangerous with the Teague esque Rozier

If we won the Lottery of Mount Zion, I think you can tighten your belt and offer the PGs the world. With Rozier you keep Dunn as an offense/defense interchange. With Irving you move Dunn and hope Bulls have other leadership to keep his weirdo vibe to himself.

I think Kyrie finally learned his lesson, you make a offer.

How much do you offer FA Cousins?
Nothing. this guy is still a boy in a man's body. stay away at all cost.

I would rather take chances in the draft.

We're getting Lebron.

I don't give anyone pushing 30 a max contract for this Bulls team. That would just be a move to sell a few more tickets, not win championships.

Bulls are in this place because of too many short sighted moves.

good takes.

With Thompson I have always mused that the White Sox signed his brother who you would then see at games in the off-season, enjoying the city, etc...

You bring his brother to the fucking pitch meeting? yep

you can offer the max to all of them, maybe cousins would take it, none of the rest. This is why they got Porter the way they did, nobody but third and fourth tier guys who will be over paid will come here.

They are sitting at like 89 now, the cap is at 101, there will be no big names coming here.

Why on earth would any of those guys come to Chicago?

Wake up breh, Klay won’t even consider Chicago until he is in Dwayne Wade 35 year old mode. 90% likelihood he stays in SF, 10% he joins the Clips.

WTF would he leave playoff teams in Cali to come to Chicago?

I think with Durant out GSW will probably pay Thompson the max home bonus.

i Don’t see a bad bulls roster anymore. If a top PG came here and they hired a worthy coach this team should present problems as soon as next year.

We have a 12% chance to get Zion, and probably a 60% chance we get Zion, Morant, or Garland.

So better than 50% chance Bulls make playoffs next year and start to learn.

after destroying the rockets on their home court without durant, yeah, there will be some soul searching for the owner there and a guy that showed up in golden state to win a title.

Need guards that can play. Lavine is the only good guard on the team. Everyone else sucks
