    He really likes Rose & Noah. But there's lack if shooters on roster. Also it doesn't sound like he's exactly being welcomed by Rose.

    At this point, LeBron has tightly closed ranks, only seriously talking about decision with a couple people. Which is why so little info.

    Ok where in the world did he get that idea???

    I asked him what he meant by that statement, if he answers, I will post it.

    There is a lack of shooters on the roster.

    He hasnt answered me, but did say this:

    Also, can confirm several reports of a rift between Wes Wesley & James camp. Wes was indeed pushing Chicago, I'm told.

    Why wouldn't Rose accept Lebron? That seems odd.

    Remember he follows the Cavs, although up until now he has been fair in his reporting. He may be correct now, I just want to know what he knows

    If Rose doesn't want to accept Lebron, the Nets will happily take him off your hands. Don't even worry about it.

    How about because they are both Points?... Rose might be like anybody else in thinking that this bulls team is his team now and they should be getting pieces to fill in around him. Bosh and Wade fill in a lot easier than point-forward LBJ. There's a lot of duplication in a Rose-LBJ pairing.

    He said:

    Didn't say Rose was anti-LeBron. But the word is preference was Joe Johnson. They have same agent. That is what multiple people tell me.

    I said to mention Rose is not welcoming of James was a bad choice of words. I agreed Bulls wanted Johnson and vise versa.

    That's pretty selfish to be honest. We're talking about Lebron here. Guys like him don't come in dozens. As professionals, both Rose and Lebron should easily be able to make it work. That shouldn't even be a problem.

    Absolutely, and maybe if he signed in before they're all gone Bulls would land one.

    The issue with Derrick is a non issue. It is a speculation and unnecessary and unfounded rumour mongering

    Perhaps it also comes from the fact that Derrick isn't the most animated or effusive guy and is a man of few um's . I mean words.

    And if James decides to be a Bull then I would hope to deal Deng for Okur and sign Asik in the salary differentials. Bring back Brad Miller

    Bring in Ray Allen and one of Anthony Morrow / JJ Reddick

    Bring back Pargo for the minimum



    Okur
    Noah
    James
    Allen
    Rose

    bench

    Miller/Asik
    Gibson/Kurz
    J.Johnson
    Morrow
    Pargo



    James would have a stretch big in Okur and we'd have wing shooting support in Allen and one of Morrow/ Redick + Pargo

    Interesting. If half those moves are possible, you may end up with a team that's better than it would be if you spent your cap getting Bosh.
