Sources: L Stephenson & Pacers at impasse. Indy offers 5 yrs/$44 mill. Lance wants more, will talk to others.
Chi, LAL, Hornets interested. (@Chris_Broussard)

What Indy offered is about all i'd pay him. Let Michael Jordan overpay the hot head.

Seems pretty cheap to me, I think Lance will easily get more than that. Even from the Bulls if Melo doesn't make the right choice.

No way would I sign him for more than that.

Nobody will give him 5 years but I bet he gets 3/$30M or 4/$40M. Indy offering him under 9 per year seems a little cheap to me.

I don't want another defense first score second type of player. Especially a hot head player like him. I hope the bulls pass on him.

If the Bulls can't get Melo/Love, who is your next option?

Nobody can give him 5 years other than the Pacers, so yes, no one will give him 5 years.

I'd take Stephenson for 9M in a heartbeat personally. I think that'd be a steal in this FA market. He'll probably end up getting 11M or 12M though I feel like.

Rebuild. Bull won't do anything without a dominant shooter/scorer to help Rose. Spurs had multiple guys that could put the ball in the hoop in bunches. Heat had three guys that could put the ball in the hoop. Bulls have one.

Finally a fan that isn't okay with a brickfest for a team.

Rebuild how? What's your plan? That's what the question was asking.
