The Chicago Bulls are on the verge of trading Luol Deng to clear up even more cap room. They will officially have enough to make room for two max free agents without having to do a sign and trade.

I can see Lebron and Amare/Bosh going there.

Rose
Hinrich
LeBron
Amare/Bosh
Noah

with Gibson and Johnson off the bench

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Holy ****!!!
 
I can't imagine why LeBron would actually want to go to Chicago. I mean, he will NEVER get out of Jordan's shadow. While physically he is better than Jordan, he doesn't have the inner drive to win.

His career will forever be marked as a failure in Chicago.

Agree 100%. I was thinking the same

LeBron has the inner drive to win. He just doesn't have it at the same level as Jordan. Who does?

He does? I never saw Jordan take a game off during the regular season. I watched LeBron go on vacation during the playoffs. His drive isn't to win, it's show people how good he is.

LeBron is the best basketball player I've ever seen...if he would play like it all the time. He wants to win, everyone does. It's just not the most important thing to him. LeBron is the most important thing to LeBron. FAIL.

As for drive like Jordan has, there are thousands of athletes where winning in the most important thing to them. Jordan was by no means in a league of his own drive wise. Dwyane Wade, Kobe Bryant, Derek Fisher, Chris Paul, Kevin Garrnett, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, and I'm just naming top tier active players today. There are I'm sure there are a hundred more still actively playing in the NBA today. Most just aren't quite as talented.

LeBron could be the best player to ever play the game, but he won't. The only way LeBron ever wins a championship, is if he joins a team that has a top tier player who does have the drive to win and pushes LeBron. The question is, can he handle getting pushed by someone he thinks is inferior to himself. I'm not sure his ego will allow that.

I hope by "physically" you mean because of his size combined w/ his athleticism because he's not as skilled as Jordan...not as tough as Jordan...and seemingly not as driven as Jordan. MJ simply didn't think losing was an option and LBJ doesn't seem to take that approach everytime he steps onto the hardwood.

Agreed.

Physically means physically. I think he has the skill set too, he just doesn't practice as hard as Jordon. It doesn't appear that he has too either. He is just that freaking talented. Of course if he did, he would be completely unstoppable.

It's the drive that he doesn't have. It's why he will end his career labeled as a failure unless he teams up with someone who actually has drive that can motivate him to work.

No one wants Luol Deng, let alone trade for him. The Clips could just overpay for Rudy Gay

FIFY

My bet is on Wade going to the Bulls.

It's home for him so that is very plausible. I would guess that is where he would go also unless his plan is to team up with another big time player somewhere else.
 
Wade is staying.

W/ the Bulls clearing room trading Hinrich and the Heat and Nets looking to do the same ****s gonna get reall fun soon.


The Nets can get Chris Paul and have CP3, Lebron, Lopez which trumps anything

Why would anyone sign with the Nets? Especially with Avery now the coach.

Michael will be in LeBrons shadow by the time his career is over in Chi-town.

Discuss....

They got nothing going for them

The Bulls and Nets are looking good. Hopefully someone **** blocks this Hinrich deal

until Lebron wins a championship there is nothing to discuss.
 
Heinrich's going to Washington along with Chicago's #17 pick for some undisclosed compensation.
