I never post comments but I can’t take it anymore. First of all there was some good work being done in the dream scenario dept. However, when people make blanket statement like Lebron will never come or he’s coming for sure, it makes no sense. Lebron doesn’t even know what he’s going to do yet.

Miami is a strong contender as well as Chicago and Cleveland and NY. That’s why the FA’s are going to talk before they go anywhere.

If the Bulls do get Lebron, I think it’s logical that Bosh will get here as well. But to make crazy comments like “never” or “for sure” tells me you really don’t understand professional sports or life in general.

As for @kipp passing on the scenario with the Bulls, Raptors, and Sixers trading. Why would the 76’ers give up Brand the 2nd pick overall for Hinrich and Deng. Makes no sense whatsoever for them.

@ Trm3
My point was stupid? OK, answer this, which starting SG of the last…idk…20 NBA champions is Kirk as good as or better than? That’s a tough one. How about this: Of the last 110 or so starters of NBA Finals teams, name 1 player that Kirk is better than…? Iverson was surrounded by trash; Austin Croshere–maybe. But, both those teams lost. If you have Rose, Bosh, Noah, and LBJ why not upgrade Kirk’s spot with…idk…anybody. Shannon Brown, for all I care. There’s no place for Kirk in that line-up. His shot is too broke for him to sniff the floor. What would his role be?

He’s definitely no Pax. Pax was an assassin. If he was open, and got his feet set with that 1-2 step, he put the ball in the hole. Pax would shoot holes in Kirk’s jersey. So would Steve Kerr, Craig Hodges, Trent Tucker, etc. He’s just not the same caliber of shooter as those guys were, and that’s exactly what his role would have to be in your fantasy line-up. Hell, give me Boobie Gibson, Derek Fisher, James Posey, Eddie House, any-friggin-body else to be that guy. That’s just never been Kirk’s game.

also does anyone anywhere really think that cleveland is going to let james get away? that would be like the bears letting walter payton leave i mean if cleveland’s GM let’s that happen he might as well leave or go into witness protection so please everone take a deep breath and WAKE UP! cause in your world we’d sign lebron dewayne wade and bring phil jackson back to coach I am 43 and have NEVER played professional basketball and i am more likely to be playing in a bulls uniform than any of the free agents that will be available this year

Your opinion is fine. Those players do not play good defense and that is just a fact. Look at the tape. You can say what you want but it does not make it true. The grizzlies are not trading Gay for Deng and Chicago should not make that trade with JJ included. Deng is just as good as Gay and he plays better defense. Neither can hit the three on a consistent basis and Gay averaged 1 assist a game. Now you can say he is a shooter but dude even Allen Iverson averaged more than that. You also never said that should be a plan B. You stated that LBJ is never coming and the Bulls should just go with your idea. Well Your idea in my opinion is SHITTY and I hope it doesn’t happen…..Just my opinion!!

Jesus Christ! How many names u got DJ?? That Max Power crap sounded to much like u with the “David Lee, Carl Landry, Rudy Gay” comments. Stop worry about about the Salary cap..That’s Pax, Gar and Reinsdorf job..and trust me they know Rose and Noah will deserve some pay when their due and were not gonna lose them.

@ Kipp..ur statement of Hinrich is stupid, saying “any starting lineup with Hinrich in it isn’t a Championship team”..really?? So, IF we had Rose, Hinrich, James, Bosh and Noah..ur telling me that team isn’t a Championship team?? I guess the same could be said about Paxson when he was a starter cause Hinrich is better than Paxson was.

Huh??? they can’t play defense? are serious?

Look Max, it was just an idea, if the Bulls can not manage to land Lebron, Bosh or Wade to Chicago. Beside, all of those guys that I mention can play solid defense and they are all talented scores, which is a good thing.

By the way Max, what do you got against Carl Landry and Kelenna Azubuike? I don’t know about you but, they are both good talented hustling players that the Bulls would love to have on their team. Plus they are cheaper players that they can afford to get for a good price.

Another thing, the Grizzlies would probably make that trade move if we throw in James Johnson with Deng. By making that move, the Bulls will have more money to sign another solid player like Travis Outlaw to replace J.J spot.
