This guy has been accurate on stuff before.

Edit your title to "Rumorpress.net: Noah & Deng for Bosh?"
More people will pay attention since this guy has been legit in the past and a lot of people around here know who he is.
Thrusting toward the playoffs, one game at a time.
How is this guy legit...?
Look at his archives, nothing has come to fruition.
Thomas, Miller, Salmons, James, Pargo, Gray, MLE, and (there is no LLE thanks to the Pargo signing) will not be here with a Max Free Agent...don't get too attached.
It's Tech N9ne
Tech N9ne is the screen name for Victor Bellan on the NBA Basketball site Realgm. Tech broke out onto the scene in 2002 as one of Chicago’s top Bulls Insiders, breaking numerous Bulls stories weeks before the news went public.
Tech is noted for breaking several stories days and sometimes weeks before major newspapers had picked up on the stories. Such information includes the Donyell Marshall signing, both Jalen Rose trades, the Eddie Robinson signing, the Jamal Crawford trade, Hoops the Gym information such as Roger Mason Jr’s injury, draft choices such as the picks of Gordon and Deng, fights and confrontations in practice, the Tyson Chandler trade among many other news, information and rumors.
In the 2007-08 season, Tech broke the Ben Wallace for Larry Hughes and Drew Gooden trade. Tech announced the potential deal in December of 2007, almost a full two months before the trade finally went through and was by the far the first person to announce the trade.
Most recently, Tech broke the Brad Miller to Bulls trade and announced the potential idea nearly seven months before the trade occurred.

Rec the post
and rec the validity of techn9ne
Vinny: "[Thrust] means pace, it means getting the ball out, it means getting your back to the sidelines, it means extending your outlets, it means getting the ball up the court into our early offense with plenty of time."
that said
i still don’t think it’ll happen. However this will undoubtedly be the best offer Toronto will receive.
I feel better knowing that if anyone gets Bosh, it’ll be the Bulls. No more of watching Gasol and Garnett going to someone else.
Vinny: "[Thrust] means pace, it means getting the ball out, it means getting your back to the sidelines, it means extending your outlets, it means getting the ball up the court into our early offense with plenty of time."
I don't see why they even entertain the idea of dealing Bosh
their only chance as a franchise over the next few years is that he stays. Noah and Deng will get you…worse than the Bulls are now.
Why give up on it now? They can make the playoffs and hopefully get some revenue, buzz, good vibes, whatever. Then if Bosh still wants to leave, not only can you paint it as his fault, you can still work out a sign/trade.
Heck, why not just make a Noah/Deng deal in the summer if you’re Toronto?

I totally agree
See my “could Bosh stay in Toronto” fanpost, if you haven’t already, where I make this argument using a lot more words and links.
I just feel good about the Bulls putting out what’s clearly the best offer. I’m really tired of seeing them outbid.
Vinny: "[Thrust] means pace, it means getting the ball out, it means getting your back to the sidelines, it means extending your outlets, it means getting the ball up the court into our early offense with plenty of time."
And who knows....
A team of Calderon-Turkoglu-Deng-Bargnani-Noah with Derozan might fit what they need, 2 defensive minded players for 1 superstar…
If I were Chicago I’d sweaten this by including either the 2010 pick or top 7 protected 2011….
Sadly....through thick and thin....
Man
I would LOVE this trade, especially after seeing Rose with Bosh on Sunday….I was all excited to see Rose with Wade (which would still be awesome), but man Bosh just seemed ready to play with Rose, sprinting the floor and looked better than ever…..
Sadly....through thick and thin....
Meh...
Anyone can claim to have broken news in the past…I could have even changed the posts on my blog to claim that I knew Wallace was going to be traded for Larry Hughes and Drew Gooden…(so, he speculated in the offseason that Brad Miller could be traded to the Bulls (even yfBB speculated Brad Miller could land on the Bulls)
Thomas, Miller, Salmons, James, Pargo, Gray, MLE, and (there is no LLE thanks to the Pargo signing) will not be here with a Max Free Agent...don't get too attached.

Here's another great one
“Miller and Salmons to Bulls Official”
Well, it took almost seven months from when Rumor Press first broke the story that the Bulls may bring Brad Miller back to Chicago for Andres Nocioni, see http://www.rumorpress.net/?p=23, and after the long wait a trade finally went down.
Damn he’s good! Looking at his other posts:
“Boozer could be traded to Bulls”
“Shaq to the Bulls?”
“Stoudemire to Bulls update”
“Raptors and Bulls talk trade” (Jermaine O’Neal rumor)
I’ve solved it. Just name every big name that could be traded, and when the Bulls make a move, claim I called it years in advance. (Btw, Dirk to the Bulls in 2011.)
people love to point out what he's gotten right
but how much stuff has he gotten wrong?
"They should. They better. I'm Vinny Del Negro!"
I'm pretty sure he posted the Ben Wallace trade rumor long before anyone else
Thrusting toward the playoffs, one game at a time.
I'd do it.
I think.

I see the upside
but chances are, we still get Bosh end of the year and w/o getting rid of Noah. Noah & Bosh would be an awesome tag team inside. Like the Bushwackers or the Legion of Doom
Desperate?
I LOVE Noah, but if you can make this trade, you do it and don’t think twice. Pairing Rose and Bosh basically guarantees us a goof team for years.

true
sad to say.
Beasley spent the first two quarters like he was wandering through a forest.-Neil Funk
True
you can also be very selective about who you put around those two. Plus the only bad contract the Bulls will have left is Hinrich, and even if he stays, he’ll come off the books when Rose finally gets paid his worth.
Vinny: "[Thrust] means pace, it means getting the ball out, it means getting your back to the sidelines, it means extending your outlets, it means getting the ball up the court into our early offense with plenty of time."
That will be true If Bosh re-signs with the Bulls
If he doesn’t, well, we are totally fucked
Jannero Pargo = Larry Hughes 2.0
Not necessarily
though close to it. There might still be room for two max Free agents.
Vinny: "[Thrust] means pace, it means getting the ball out, it means getting your back to the sidelines, it means extending your outlets, it means getting the ball up the court into our early offense with plenty of time."
Who would you get
Joe Johnson, David Lee, who else? I think we would be screwed anyway. Maybe I fall in love with Noah, but I think we shouldn’t trade him for Bosh right now. If we are going to offer Noah, wait until the summer and then try to do a sign and trade with Toronto
Jannero Pargo = Larry Hughes 2.0
Agreed...
If you sign a big free agent and feel that Bosh would be a better compliment than Deng and Noah, pull the trigger! However, Deng and Noah can be hugely important pieces in a championship run. Trading both of them for Bosh only makes sense if he is a much better fit than both those players. Will it make us a better team now, sure! Will it make us a better team with whatever free agent we sign next year…maybe.
Or maybe I just have a Noah hardon.

No way
I love Noah, he’s my second favorite Bull after Rose, but come on! If you get a chance to land probably the best PF in the game right now, while he’s still young and healthy, you take it! And they’d still have enough to sign another significant FA, if not a max deal. Assuming they clear out whatever contracts needed to have enough room to sign another FA, the Bulls will be contenders very soon indeed. And, you gotta believe that if we get Bosh, it’ll only increase the chances Wade comes here, so we’d be looking at having 3 perennial All-Stars: Rose/Bosh/Wade.
It’s all pie-in-the-sky right now, obviously, but I’d rather go for having the best “Big 3” in the NBA than holding on to Deng & Noah!
Bosh is 5 times the player Noah will ever be,
if this oppurtunity is there, you have to pull the trigger.

If the trade goes down (which I’d say is probably unlikely anyway), you’ll forget about Noah very soon!

Haha, whatever.
“not open a crack” until people like the Bulls start launching ridiculous offers at him. Colangelo is an idiot if he thinks Bosh is staying there. I mean, you’d have to do this deal if you’re him, right? Noah (perfect fit next to Bargs) AND Deng? I realize they have Turk, but you can figure that out later. Talent-wise, that’s quite a haul for a guy who is almost guaranteed to leave.

That could be posturing..
Beasley spent the first two quarters like he was wandering through a forest.-Neil Funk
As much as I'd hate to get rid of Noah
if Bosh signing an extension was a part of this deal, and we could dump Kurt for expirings to ensure a max salary slot for the summer, I’d do this. Going into the offseason with Rose + Bosh + whatever + max cap space? Would Wade or LeBron really say no to that? Eh?!
Thrusting toward the playoffs, one game at a time.
Man I would hate to see Noah go but it's Bosh.
That could help lure Wade or LeBron.
Beasley spent the first two quarters like he was wandering through a forest.-Neil Funk
If Bosh has told Toronto he doesn't want to resign
its hard for me to see how the Raps can get a better deal than Deng/Noah. Both guys fit well with Bargs. Both play defense. You can move Turk to the 2 or to the bench. I think this trade works for Toronto, IF bosh has told him he won’t resign.
by Basketball Smurf on Feb 16, 2010 5:52 PM CST reply actions
Turk
Turk could log more minutes at a 4 than a 2
ShipTileDirect.com - Why pay expensive retail prices? When you can ShipTileDirect at a fraction of the cost.
You'd probably want Bargnani at the 4
But really, if your 5 best players are Calderon/Turkoglu/Deng/Bargnani/Noah, you don’t worry about traditional positions so much. Just make Turk the point (guard, forward, whatever), have Calderon be your secondary ball-handler and sharp shooter, and then you’ve got an inside defensive minded center and also a 7-footer who can hit 3’s.
Not a bad lineup – and of course I like it so much because it would mean the Bulls have Bosh!
Let's not be Blazer's fans people
If we have some kind of guarantee that Bosh will stay with us long term we have to do this. But that also implies that I believe this report, which I don’t.

as much as I love Noah, you’ve gotta do this deal. We should all be happy that Noah has played so well that we can even imagine something like this trade happening.

actually with noah recently developing plantar whatever you call it
if we could get bosh for deng and noah thatd be amazing. we’d be able to resign bosh. and still have the expiring contracts we have/trade for to sign more FAs whether it be dwade/lebron or some fillers.
That came out wrong
I believe that the Bulls offered that or have discussed trades with Toronto, but I think there is no way that they will actually trade him.

I don't think it's that risky
It sucks that we’d have to give up Noah, cause he’s pretty much loved by all, but if you take heart out of it, it’s pretty much a no brainer. The problem is, people have gotten too accustomed to tremendously lop sided trades, so when both teams end up actually looking pretty good, it feels wrong

That's why I think the Bulls would only do this deal if it involved a Bosh extension right away

Exactly
I saw a lot of this in the RealGM posts as well. Do people really think that the Bulls would give up Deng AND Noah without some sort of guarantee that Bosh would resign with the team? Obviously if the doesn’t this is a horrible, horrible deal, but I’m sure that’s not the case

I agree, but I don't see any reason why Bosh would agree to something like that

Because if the Bulls acquire him, NBA rules dictate no one could make a higher offer
And if the Bulls can get him and move Hinrich/Salmons, they could bring in another max or near max player this summer.
We have every right to dream heroic dreams. Those who say that we're in a time when there are no heroes, they just don't know where to look.

that's where i am
wasn’t Amare a done deal last year according to some? sure the rumors are nice, but on a scale of 1 to 10 how confident is anyone that this trade will happen? i’d put myself at a 1.5 or 2.
So am I
I just read them but don’t get too caught up in it anymore. I like to be surprised when I see some confirmation of a deal.

Getting caught up in the rumours
Though is what makes this the second best time of the NBA year (only the playoffs are better) though typically for us Bulls fans, this really is the best time, as we prepare for a let down save for last year….and well even last year even how good that trade was for us at the time I remember being STAT, STAT, STAT and then we got Brad Miller and Salmons and I was happy cuz we rid ourselves of the unwanted (Gooden) and the overpaid (Noc) for them….but it wasn’t as fun as it could have been.

I just try not to get my hopes up too much that it will happen.

This rumors isnt true
so yes we do still have noah….The bulls management are dumb but not mentally retarded to let go of Noah and Deng for a player that is a free agent at the end of this season ….This rumor is garbage along with some of the other ones.
full text
ven though it’s long been known Tracy McGrady was on the market and the Rockets have been shopping him for quite some time, no deal has been struck.
The Knicks seem to want T-Mac the most, and as ESPN’s Chad Ford explains, the Rockets would be willing to take on Jared Jeffries if the Knicks also part with Jordan Hill and a future first-round draft pick.
This would allow the Knicks to clear some more cap space and have the ability to potentially take on two big-name free agents this offseason.
But don’t count out the Bulls in the T-Mac sweepstakes just yet.
Howard Beck of the New York Times tweets: “A source involved in T-Mac talks says Rockets are weighing two offers, from Knicks and Bulls.”
And Ken Berger of CBS Sports adds some more detail: “New York is hopeful its proposal involving Jared Jeffries and his $6.9 million owed in 2010-11 — along with some combination of first-round picks after 2010 — will be successful in landing McGrady and his $23 million expiring deal. The combination would dramatically enhance the Knicks’ efforts to clear enough cap space to sign two max free agents this summer … Chicago is believed to remain involved in discussions with the Rockets about McGrady, with the same goal in mind.”
Berger also cites sources that say a third team may need to get involved to keep discussions alive because of the size of McGrady’s contract.
Vinny: "[Thrust] means pace, it means getting the ball out, it means getting your back to the sidelines, it means extending your outlets, it means getting the ball up the court into our early offense with plenty of time."
OMG
Get T-Mac expiring AND trade the Jeffries albatross?

I interpret from that the Bulls must be offering Deng
Because i think that’s the only way they could get two max guys.
if that's true
that’s pretty ballsy – they can get pretty close to two max guys be renouncing t2 and getting rid of kirk and salmons per thonus a few weeks back

Just for fun say this deal happened wouldn't you just bring back Tyrus?

No
Because the Bulls have killed any chances that he’d like to stay. Then again, if Vinny is gone, maybe Tyrus loves the incoming coach.

No, if this trade were to go through we would have two holes to fill at C and SF.

Isn't risk aversion part of the Bulls Ten Commandments
1. There is only one JR who will allow you to run the team as you wish until he decides otherwise
2. Thou shall feel the embrace of JR as that of your father
3. Nothing is more important than profit
4. Basketball only exists as a means of support for the holy game of baseball
5. Players are indebted to the Bulls and only those who express such shall feel JR’s warmth
6. Thou shall not provide any real information to the press until absolutely necessary
7. The Luxury Tax shall be avoided until a JR anointed contender has been assembled
8. Risks shall not be taken on player contracts unless said player is JR anointed or represented by the disciple Arn Tellem
9. Thou shall not covet a player who wears a headband
10. Thou shall scout college players only at NCAA regional finals and the Final Four
We have every right to dream heroic dreams. Those who say that we're in a time when there are no heroes, they just don't know where to look.

if you want to be really cynical
Bulls can reduce payroll if Bosh left. They’d have even more cap space!

I just talked to David Schuster about this trade on facebook.
No chance! He said. Guys an asshole. jk

This trade deadline is especially angsty.
I get this feeling like if nothing happens it will be Bulls armaggedon.

I keep thinking about the time we had PJ Brown's expiring...
and totally wiffed and did nothing. I was FURIOUS.
…and this would be 100x worse.
THEY had, not "WE"
I have become the thing I hate.
i'd like to think that an extension
is worked out before it comes to that, but who knows
We just need to execute better - Lovie Del Negro
Yea, cause the Bulls are gonna give away two of their best players for a 30 game rental...

For all of the complaining I see on here from Bulls fans...
about how poor the management is, how much VDN sucks, and how unwilling the organization seems to be about putting a championship team together, the one (albeit BS) rumor that comes up about acquiring an All Star PF is still met with complaints.
Remind me – why do you all make fun of Blazers fans again? Oh, that’s right, because they over value their players. Deng and Noah, as much as I love Noah, will never reach the talent level that Bosh has right now – period.

If Bosh agrees to an extension as part of this trade, I would personally drive Deng and Noah to O’Hare. They are both pretty good players but to win titles you need great players. I think we could have an easier time replacing a center who can defend and rebound and an above average SF.
The NBA is about stars, whoever has them usually win. Role players are important but you gotta have All-stars and at least two. Getting Bosh would get us two stars and we can get a mid priced vet at SF and draft another big man to replace Noah.
i dont know if you realize this, but all these posts you see on this site are not by the same person, and this site is not
a political party (yet, you need to start small yfbb). so while some complain all the time, others dont. and some would give up noah for bosh easily, but others wouldnt. so your pompous declarations to everyone are as pointless as they are inane.
"Oooohhh, cat in the wall, eh? Now you're talkin' my language."
There's no question that Noah's not nearly as good as Bosh
However, together Noah and Deng might be more valuable than Bosh. I’m not saying they are, but I’m saying it’s close enough where you don’t take that gamble considering that Bosh could bolt this summer.

Seriously, it would break my heart to see Noah go
I guess he would enjoy speaking French all the time in Toronto.

Haha! This is so true.
Haha, even sadder is that it is not only just because of the melting pot city that Chicago is.
Just look at the sentence structure of my last sentence. I’m sure it could be so much better :). Go greater chicagoland public school system!

so this is another rousing success for RumorPress.net
their only saving grace is that it doesn’t rhyme so well with ‘poop’ like hoopsworld does.
