My favorite teams
  1. Chicago Cubs
  1. Chicago Bulls
  2. Golden State Warriors
  1. Chicago Bears
  1. Chicago Blackhawks
The contingency plan continues.

Marion, Pau...soon we'll be hearing about interest in Okafor, Nash, and whoever other washed up player you can think of. This plan is FOOLPROOF!

The question is: Will the Bulls offer Marion a max deal.

This is ESPN up to their dastardly deeds again. They're trying to fill the airwaves with the idea the Bulls are giving up on Carmelo so he'll, in turn, rule out the Bulls.

No they don't. Just clear cap space. I'm tired of management's excuses that they can't sign star players to max deals. The reason they can't is because they tie up their money in shit players like Boozer.

and when they had a ton of cap 4 years ago, everyone went to Miami. When Bosh and Wade went to Miami, they had to sign and overpay Boozer in hopes that LeBron came to chicago. You had to bolster the roster and you typically overpay for proven, quality veterans in FA. Especially when everyone knows youre desperate and have a ton of cap. Either youre great at trolling or purely a fucking Special person if you dont understand this.

Let me ask you something... Bulls sign Gasol and Marion. Do they win the East? If the answer is no, what is the point? To win 5 more games? To win the first round in the playoffs? It's a waste. If you can't win, it's pointless. So save the money for players who actually matter.

Why are people obsessed with wanting the Bulls to pick up third/four-tier talent? If you can't get Melo or Love, here's what you do:

--Let Rose sit for another year

---Amnesty Boozer

---Trade Taj

---Let Mirotic stay in Europe.

---Put Noah on Florida's coaching staff for one year

---Tank

---Pay for Thibs' quadruple bypass surgery

---Get the #1 pick

===Prosper?

First off, no one knows whats happening in Miami. Secondly, if Rose is indeed healthy and at 70%, this team is much better than last year with the new additions. But hey, if its not guaranteed they win the East, they shouldnt even try....Man, i knew a large chunk of CHicago fans were dumb but i didnt know they had loser mentalities too.

Even with Rose playing 100%, they have 0% chance to win the East right now. Do you understand what 0% means?
