What's your thoughts on the richness of the contract?
Obviously it will be back loaded and a 33yr old boozer is not worth 18 million, but 20 million less than Amare… not bad, right?

Boozer today is only overpaid if he
Has the phantom injury bugs that he had in Utah, if healthy he’s pretty darn good, a legit post player (Bosh isn’t even a true post player)…..it’ll be great to have that major hole fixed.
Now if we can just get Lebron and a shooter (S&T Deng, our 2011 first round pick, the Charlotte Option for 2012 allowing us to trade 2 first round picks, and throw in Taj Gibson unfortunately), we’ll still have max money or thereabouts to pick up shooters and fill the roster.
ROSE-?-Lebron-Boozer-Noah with $15M to fill int he roster and the who knows on James Johnson….is still perhaps the best team in the league even with a SG by committee (which we could afford)…..
Come on Lebron….
7/1/2010: D. Wade comes back home
I've just been in cap-focused mode for so long
that I can’t escape it. I agree, but I am secretly ecstatic that he didn’t break the bank.
It’s relieving, for me, to know Atlanta paid 40 million more for a contract that was only one year longer.

Absolutely....
Boozer starting at $80 M >>>>> Amare at $100 M
Boozer has had nagging injuries, Amare has had three potentially career ending injuries.

aaannnd....
Boozer @ $80M + Taj if he goes down >>>>> Amare @ $100M & (crickets chirping)….If LBJ (whose self promotion is hella lame, but he’s still the best player in the league not named Kobe) wants to win, Imean seriously…we could still trade Deng and get a solid 8 man rotation (please let it be to Portland for Przybilla Fernandez and Bayless)
by streamsowhiskey on Jul 7, 2010 5:01 PM CDT up reply actions
you think kobe is the best player in the league? uh, why?
Cashing checks and having sex. Also doing some light medical diagnoses.
man..
I bet you if Boozer waited someone would have paid him more than we did, but he knows he has a chance to play with LBJ next season and win it all so he committed early and at a price where the Bulls could still offer LeBron a max contract..that’s what I’m talkin’ bout C Booz! LBJ coming to Chi-town next!
Lest we forget
He actually wants to play for a team that has Rose and other good pieces.
Maybe Boozer was always smarter than we though.
There kept being reports that he was laying low to cash in… but this contract doesn’t seem that rich. Could it be that the Bulls knew there was a good chance either he or Bosh would bring LeBron to Chicago, but we wanted the better player?
I met one of Hinrich's Professor's at Kansas, but he never met Hinrich.
by Another Afflicted Chicago Fan on Jul 7, 2010 4:52 PM CDT up reply actions
Of all the players
Boozer might be the only one to appreciate the impact that a major market and great point guard will have on his career.
People criticize Boozer for how he left the Cavs, but the reports are that his Jazz contract was 25 million more for the same number of years. Who in their right mind passes that up?
So…gotta say it: this sort of vindicates the Ben Gordon thing.

Well the decision is pretty clearly set up for Lebron now
1. Stay at home in Cleveland, win 60 games and watch your teammates decline
2. Go to Miami, win some titles and watch your personal brand decline
3. Go to NY, hope they make some player moves, and watch your celebrity rise (but if they don’t win the brand won’t do much)
4. Go to NJ and see what the Bulls were like before Rose
5. Go to Chicago and become the Man, have a great team already around you, win multiple championships, watch the brand and celebrity grow.
I may be a little biased though

Boozer relies on skill and savvy and positioning
not freakish athleticism. His game has staying power as long as he stays healthy. That’s obviously something has has to prove.
But we finally have a legit low post scoring threat, one who can play with his back to the basket. Let’s get some shooters and win the Central.

disagree with this back to the basket assessment
boozer can definitely post up a smaller defender, but most times he doesn’t have that luxury as an undersized pf.
ran high pick’n’roll with d williams, like majority of current league does. got lots of high % shots in the paint in sloan’s offense, let’s hope it continues here.

Yeah, I'm not sure why people think Orlando would trade him.
He’s been a great backup player, and even stepped up his game when Carter went out with an injury. At the Orlando blog, they mention that he “could” be considered as part of a trade package, but it seemed unlikely.

Redick and Mike Miller
Both shoot over 40% from 3PT which we desperately need. Either can start at SG (Redick starts against smaller, quicker guards and Miller against more physical ones). Miller is also your insurance policy at SF for when Deng gets hurt.
Why not
Low ball RJ hope to get him at a $5M per for 4 yrs (I seriously don’t get why he’d bail out of $15M, what was he thinking).
Then I’d go after Mike Miller, Morrow, Reddick, Korver perhaps 2 of them.
Then I’d go after Luke Ridnour for our backup PG (seriously why did Orlando go with Duhon over RIdnour….)?
7/1/2010: D. Wade comes back home
I read that Ridnour is going to the Knicks...
…and I don’t know why you think Richard Jefferson would only command $5M in this market with so many teams with cap space and a need for a SF(see Clippers, Nets, Heat and perhaps Cavs if Lebron opts out).

Not to make this all about LeBron, but I also love the Boozer signing and how it will Benefit Noah. Boozer is an elite post player in this league and he’ll be able to teach Noah a thing or two along the way.

Cleveland has been the biggest guilt trip I’ve seen in a city. Just let LBJ move on and then clap your asses off whenever his team travels there. Nothing would be tackier than them booing LeBron after all he’s tried to do for them.

I can’t stand when teams boo players that have basically been the franchise for years, not to mention tried to help the community. If the player is a scumbag, that’s different – but that isn’t the case.

This really scares me.
If they each took that 13 million (or whatever the “divide by 3” number was), it would be a huge clue that LeBron was coming. Them not announcing that number is definitely worrisome.
I think they're going to hold off
ie, agreed with Miami that if Lebron comes, they’d each take less, but if LBJ is out, then they both get max.
A true friend stabs you in the front - Oscar Wilde
if they were willing to take
3 sub-max deals then it REALLY wouldn’t make sense to choose Miami over Chicago.
DEJESUS!!!
If Miami finds a taker for Beasley
they can take one more max contract.

They don't have anywhere for Beasley to play with Griffin coming back
Of course, they are the Clippers and they did hire Vinny, so nothing can be ruled out.
Knowing Sterling
he probably hired Vinny because Reinsdorf is paying every dollar of the first years under 2 million.

3 Things To Give Bulls Fans Hope
1) Bulls camp has been dead quiet. This is likely why you have way more rumors about other teams’ chances. The bulls simply aren’t giving up information to report about.
2) Boozer’s signing leaves just enough money for a Lebron signing. Hmmmmm.
3) A growing theory is that there’s a disinformation campaign coming out of LeBron’s camp. It’s the only way to battle the few people tattletailing to the media about Lebron’s true destination. Chad Ford said on the score an hour ago that so many people he knows are getting so much conflicting information that it’s smelling more and more like a disinformation campaign. So all these “he’s definitely going here or there” rumors are actually strategically placed rumors from LeBron’s camp.

Did all of them fail in their speech classes as high schoolers? Doesn’t a powerpoint pretty much negate “bombing” a presentation? Why did the meeting last three hours then?

If he stays in Cleveland then they probably did bomb their presentation...

I would think
“presentation” in this sense, meaning the entire pitch, not just a powerpoint presentation.
First, how does JA know this?

Third… :epic face palm:

Right? Maybe Bosh is just THAT shortsighted. and yeh, maybe he really REALLY wanted to sun and beach year-round.
I'm sure in the basketball
sense, Miami is a bigger market than Toronto. But Toronto is one of the fastest growing cities in N. America and it’s a huge market. The regional population is 8.1 million residents.
I think Miami’s regional population is somewhere in the 7 million range?

But I tend to think that Bosh and Wade in Miami fails to improve Miami very much. I mean, they still have garbage players all around them. If they don’t also get LeBron they’re possibly no better off seed-wise next year. Plus, something makes me think that Bosh might end up like Jermaine O’Neal there…he’s got his money now, what’s his incentive to play his ass off now? When he and Wade are the only good players on the team? I could see him giving up after a while. But the weather’s nice. :)
I like the Bulls roster better than Miami, as it is…even if we only get Boozer and some outside shooters.

they’ll be good. Wade and Bosh are very good. Wade is tremendous. They have cap room. Don’t over think this.

Brewer is going to get close to $6M alone...
Brad could be a vet minimum on the right team…

Derrick speaks
“[Chicago] is attractive, but people are different,” Rose said. “Everyone takes situations differently. Everyone thinks differently. I guess they think they made the right decision. I would love to play with them. I would love for them to be here. I guess they felt like they could go some place else and do better.”
For now, Rose, who got some help Wednesday afternoon when the Bulls and Carlos Boozer agreed to a five-year deal, said he looks forward to matching up against the new Heat.
“Congrats to them. I hope they have a good season,” Rose said. “We’re in the same conference, so it’ll be competitive. It’s good they finally made their decision. I wish them all the best.”
For the first part, does he know something we don't know?
Does he know LeBron is not coming with us.

I think for now he's just talking about Chris and Dwyane.

If there is any good that comes out of Dwyane not signing with us,
It would be that I’ll enjoy watching Wade and Rose playing against each other in the future.

LeBron is fucked if he doesn't sign in Chicago
didn’t think I would ever say that
I simply don't agree.
Even if he goes back to the exact same roster, he’ll have an 18+ million expiring deal to trade with a year from now.
Or if he joins any other team, their roster is better than Cleveland’s roster. He has solid choices.

where did all this reddick love come from? he did his thing in college, has been a basket case (scared) since being in the NBA. morrow is a far superior shooter, and can get his own shot off, and is starter quality. reddick is the kind of player opposing teams laugh at when they see him in the starting line up, like a shorter sasha “the machine” vujacic without the blonde bombshell.

According to my inside sources (telepathically attuned while ensconced deeply within the frontal lobes of my cerebal cortex)
tomorrow’s TV extravaganza will be renamed LeBronandBoozahLalaPalooza to celebrate the running of the NBA’s newest, most exciting superteam, the sporting, snorting, stampeding, fearsome fivesome known as the Chicago Bulls.
D Wade and his wannabe co-star Chris “Twittertoes” Bosh will be shaking in their boots when they realize their diabolical plan to con GarPaxDorf and company has backfired. After this they will have to give away tickets if they expect anyone to watch their 2nd rate reality film “The Thrill of Victory and the Agony of Deceit.” After tomorrow the script will have to be rewritten to change the ending from a joyful, triumphant celebration to a tragic, empty, meaningless farce. (1st round elimination anybody? Take that Rielly, you greasy maned slimeball) .
LBJ, DR, CB, JN and company are going to have a long run at the top for years to come, while their show will be lucky if it survives the summer league. Chicago is back!

More Bulls org fumbling
Wade on considering the Bulls: “I get teared up a little bit thinking about the opportunity I had. … Chicago, that’s my home. That’s where my heart will always be … unfortunately it didn’t work out that I’m in Chicago, but Chicago is my heart. And it will always be. … It was, it was a time where things kind of swinged, and it played on my emotions a lot, because I am a family oriented person and everyone heard the stuff about my kids. That was going to be my final decision. Of course, I want to be just like every man in the world, you want to be the best dad possible. You want to have every moment with your kids.”
Note: Bulls, you have missed an opportunity. Here’s the second-best player in the best free agent class ever saying it’s “unfortunate” he did not get to join your team, and that doing so would have helped him fulfill his role as a father. Also, the Bulls have a much better supporting cast. How did the Bulls fumble this catch? Also, this testimonial is nice to hear for those reporters who said Wade was leaning Bulls a few days ago. Many said they were nuts, but it was good reporting all along.

YaoPao, fsound, Andrew, others.... question:
How do cap holds work for filling up the roster in terms of signing max free agents? Easiest example; if the Bulls max sign someone that fills up their cap, how would they be able to fill up their roster without considering MLE, bi-annual, or any other exceptions? Can they go over to make sure they have the requisite 11 players?
there's an exception to sign minimum salaried players

Sounds like the Walsh backup plan.

I think Boozer is a great pick for us.
He is very experienced, has been in quite a few playoff wars and hopefully he will be able to bring in his physical play to the Bulls. He can score 20+ pts and bring down 10+ rebs. With Lebron possibly and maybe a three point shooter in their mixing it up, I think the Bulls are a complete team and will be one of the teams to beat.
Let's see if Allen pans out.

ESPN 1000 apparently just reported something that has been making the rounds around forums the past few hours. The Trail Blazers, Bulls and Pistons may be engaging in a three-way trade. Here is the breakdown:
Portland receives = Luol Deng and Jason Maxiell
Chicago receives = Rip Hamilton
Detroit receives = Joel Przybilla, Jerryd Bayless and James Johnson
That's pretty much the only situation
where I would want Hamilton on the team.

im guessing it's because we have no SG right now considering we sign LeBron he's the SF
and I think it might free up some cap space to sign some other free agents to fill out the bench
Rip Hamilton was good 2003-2008.
Now he maybe done as far as motivation is concerned. Last two years he has been nonexistant, Detroit’s results bare that out! If this was 5-6 years ago, I’d say HELL YES, now I say thanks but no thanks! He might bring something, but he is even older than Boozer and has more mileage. Could be a good outside threat and could take pressure away from Rose and/or LBJ, but can’t see it happening 100%
Well, to be fair, his motivation might have taken a hit by the successive acquisitions of A.I. and Gordon.

So that now the Bulls have gotten Boozer, a guy LeBron supposedly likes, it comes out that ...
… the Bulls “bombed” their presentation? Hmmm.
But who’s to say that’s the only contact the FO has had with LeBron and his folks since then?
"Smith stripped. Smith stopped! Smith stopped again by Pippen!"
Maybe LeBron's Powerpoint was all crossed out?

Two Cablevision helicopters have been flown to the New York Knicks practice facility, according to sources.
At this moment my life is one continuous Twitter feed.
If he's having it in such an obvious location, that would explain why he's prepared to announce within the first 10 minutes.

I dont care what the D.N.A. Says, the Guy wearing number 12 Cannot be Kirk Hinrich, he is definetly Kurt. Kirk can actually play basketball!
Poor positioning of stage lighting casts a large shadow of statue on LeBron's face.

FWIW, I think Maverick Carter, some other flunkies and possibly LBJ were supposed to meet with Knicks brass tonight.
They could be finalizing something, or they could just be giving the Knicks one more shot before …
THE DECISION.

The worst part about Lebron going to New York
is we’ll never hear the fucking end of it on ESPN.

I feel like this is misidrection to the Nth degree
All the signs point to _. But isnt that the game? To make you think one thing when the truth is something else. Suspense must build. All this NY shit does is aggravate people.

Here in Athens top story is German Octopus who correctly predicts winners of World Cup matches. Seriously, it’s on 3 channels.

so here's how the octopus thing would work:
You put 5 clams in 5 boxes: Bulls, Cleveland, Heat, Knicks, Nets….whichever one it eats you make Broussard eat the 4 remaining clams.

Is this a discarded subplot from “Gravity’s Rainbow”?

So why the 1 hr special tomorrow?
Just make up your damn mind and put on that #6! Unless he is gonna take 1 hr to talk about how he used to love to watch the Bulls and will crave the opportunity to play with D-Rose, Noah and Carlos Santana Boozer! I wouldn’t mind it then, lol.
