Report: Lebron, along with Bosh, leaning towards the Bulls

[Tai]

Wow, if I'm a Bulls fan and I believed this in anyway, I either got season tickets or renewed them.

[Witch-King]

Funny thing is, the Chicago Bulls are third all-time in NBA championships won -- all 6 of their rings being attained during one decade (the 90's). That would technically make the Chicago Bulls 'Co. - C', if the Celtics are still considered 'Co. - A' (company/frachise 'A') and the Lakers, with Bryant are 'Co. - B'.

It's almost like McDonald's and Burger King vs Wendy's (speaking of which, the 'Bacon & Bleu' burger @ Wendy's is top-notch, as far as drive-thru burger chains are concerned). LeBron & Bosh would instantly make the Bulls a threat to win another ring with their presence, though there's still the remote chance that James gets traded to the NJ Nets (can't remember the last time I ate @ Long Jon Silver's)   .

Only if Burger King was pure evil.

Rose/LeBron/Deng/Bosh/Noah?

Would be very difficult to match-up with that team.

They'd probably have to move Deng for some perimeter shooting and depth.

If they could find a way to add a starting 2-guard who played tenacious perimeter D and could hit a jumper, they'd be golden.

Raja Bell?... Likely wouldn't cost the whole mle.

They could easily move Deng for a couple decent bench guys.

So I've read it is pretty much a "done deal" that Chris Bosh signs with:
(a) Miami
(b) Chicago

Hmmm.  Sounds to me like no one knows what is going on.

Im pretty sure they will be a really good team next year no matter what two big guys they end up getting. Even if it was just boozer and joe johnson that would be a really talented team.

LOL.

FWIW--

Chad Ford and Bill Simmons were speculating that LBJ and Bosh would end up in Chicago, who would then trade Luol Deng to Atlanta for a S&T Joe Johnson.

No reason to believe it's anymore accurate than anything else out there but if it does happen, our Brad Miller discussion is gonna seem rather quaint, given the opposing force in the east next year.

If that's true, then wow, Just wow.

it certainly makes the Brad Miller discussion even more depressing

The only group of guys that stand a chance at beating this team in the playoffs next year may just be our Celtics, but only if Pierce, KG, and Ray can pull off a series where they play like they're 5 years younger.  After that, the Bulls will sweep the decade.  I hope Lebron goes to a team like the Knicks and never wins a title.

at least the lakers current run will be over, stopping them from passing us in the overall number of titles. Maybe that is why Phil is considering retirement.

48 hrs ago: sportsbook.com had LeBron at +125 to sign w/ Bulls. Bosh was +300. Now? They're both -500. Hmmmmmm.     about 1 hour ago  via web  

I am far from an expert on sports betting does this mean that it went from walking away with 2,300 if you bet $1,000 on Bosh in Chicago and you win to walking away with $1,500?
