I have to admit, Anthony Morrow was completely under my radar.
Already on roster: Rose, Deng, JJohnson, Boozer, Gibson, Noah

Sign Luke Ridnour to back up PG and off bench shooter.
Sign Morrow to back up SG and SF
Sign JJ Reddik to play SG
Sign Brad Miller to back up C
Bring back Chris Richard, Flip Murray and AC Law on the cheap
Bring in Omer Asik
Bring in 1 more hustle/big body for the fouls emergency

This all goes out the window IF the Bulls sign Lebron, but I’m not holding my breath.

Bulls have a good chance of signing the 6-5 inch A.Morrow becuase Golden State already has Monta Ellis and S. Curry in the backcourt. Morrow did start for GS on numerous occasions, but not only at SG but at small forward. The Bulls can make a good enough offer for which GS will not want to match.

I really wish we did not have to wait until 9 for “The Decesion” (it’s these kind of shinanigans that make me really dislike LeBron). That said, there is still a chance he lands here, however, I don’t care either way. I’d feel perfectly comfortable if he wasn’t with the Bulls for reasons I already laid out in the earlier post. BUT what happens if he does come??

You can’t start both he and Deng, so we still need to find a shooter or two. Deng’s contract is a pretty tough one to move at this point, but what about Johnson. Could that free up enough cap to sign any legit shooter?? I know after signing LeBron we’d be able to offer minimum contracts and go over the cap, but are we going to get anything of quality with that? Can you think of an sharpshooting vets that would come on for the minimum? As much as I love Deng if we moved his contract after bringing in LeBron, used that money on Reddick, Miller, or Wes Matthews…then this team is easily favs in East and prepared to confront the Lakers and save the Jordan Legacy. The biggest reason I’d be happy to see LeBron on the Bulls is how terribly fierce this defense would become. We already know they’ll be good, but LeBron with Thibs system would turn them beyond great. Plus, if LeBron signs here it means he doesn’t sign in Miami (and I REALLY don’t want to see that happen).

God I wish this wait was over and the front office could just move forward!!

PS ~ Why all this talk about bringing in David Lee still?? I’ve seen it from several people…would we really waist the rest of the cap we have on someone to come off the bench.
Also, Alan makes a good point on Gibson’s age. Although his number look like Bosh’s rookie season, he’s never gonna be Bosh. I don’t believe he’s an All-Star ever, but it’s his age that made him such a great draft pick. He’s disciplined, and a great student of the game. He’s matured already and consistent. I hope he’s a Bull for life because he’s going to be OUR star off the bench, the X-factor, for years to come.

ONE LOVE

I agree with Annoymous, but, is going to be hard to try to steal him away from Golden State, since he is a resisted free agent. =[

At least it’s a better signing than Ben Wallace!

Lebron James to Miami means that the CHICAGO BULLS will be your 2010-11 CENTRAL DIVISION CHAMPIONS and at least a three seed in the eastern conference.

Made a typo … meant to say that they do NOT NOT need a shooting guard that can carry the team.
