Ummmm..... those Wade County shirts were made last year. I have one from a game against the Celts in 08-09 that they gave them out. And Wade's going to get full custody of his kids, because the ex is fucking crazy. Also, how do you know that Wade didn't want to go there? HE'S FROM THERE!!! It all hinged on Bosh, and I don't think Bosh wanted to go there.

Why would Wade's decision hinge on Bosh? Wade + Rose + Deng + Noah + Boozer is way better than Wade + Bosh + Bealsey + Chalmers + Mike Miller.. I don't think he ever had any intention of coming here.

and the loyalty comments still make him a whiny douche.

You're just pissed that the Bulls are going to end up with Ron Mercer again! Lol

And yes, it hinged on bosh because THEY WANTED TO PLAY TOGETHER

if you ever want to see some hilarious shit, look up Gary Payton on YouTube and see a lot of his opinions and rants about the league (overrated players, etc.). he has these cronies, too

and yeah, apparently Reggie was a ferocious shit-talker

Hey, Carlos Boozer's wayyyy better than Ron Mercer -- and somehow we paid less for him that the Grizzlies paid for Rudy Gay!

Depending on what the Heat do (obviously, if they get LeBron, I may have to rethink this), I'd say the Bulls have a better team right now. As good as Chris Bosh is, he was never able to win more than 40 games as the best player on the Raptors...

also, there are rumors Bosh wanted to play with LeBron as much as he wanted to play with Wade, I don't think Wade + Bosh were a package deal from the get-go. I think Bosh decided 'Bron was going to stay in Cleveland and since Wade was staying in Miami (and he knew he wanted to play with one of the two) he decided Miami was a more attractive destination. Because Cleveland is... well, you know, Cleveland.

If the Heat get Lebron, they could sign Earl Barron and Speedy Claxton and still lead the league in team PPG

I don't know about that... I would love to see the Heat get those three and then not win the championship. That would ruin LeBron's legacy hahaha

And stop being so bitter, Blake!!! I love how Bulls fans are already saying that without Lebron they have a better roster than the Heat. As of right now, yes they do. However, Noah's still young and unproven and has a bit of a hot head, Deng is terrible, Hinrich is gone(bet your kickiing yourself now for that one), Taj Gibson's unproven..... seriously, besides Rose and Boozer, you guys have mediocre players and unproven players. At least we have two guys who are arguably at the top of their positions.

*In a sing song voice*
Bitter bitter bit-ter
Bitter bitter bit-ter
Bitter bitter bit-ter

How could you guys bring up Bonds and Bobby Bo and forget about this guy:

1st prize in free agency goes to:

The Miami Heat!!!!!!


And the first loser in free agency goes to:


The Chicago Bulls!!!!!

Deng's not terrible... He has a 16.4 career PER! Noah is one of the top 3 rebounders in the NBA and Taj is certainly as good or better than Chalmers and Beasley.

and why would we be kicking ourselves for getting rid of a $10 million a year backup PG who had a PER of under 10.0 the last two seasons? Hinrich's great for like 10 min/gm, but nothing more than that. It was a miracle we were able to get rid of him actually

was that Andy Van Slyke, MJ?

Who even brought up Bonds and Bonilla???? lol

Still, Hinrich's a guy that not only can come off the bench, but also mentor younger players. He's a great leader and a good guy to have in the locker room.

Yep, Andy Van Slyke

and how many good locker room guys do the Heat have right now?

2 so far

Unless you want to include Chalmers(who's proved to be as humble as could be), then you have 3 :-)

At least our players didn't have to have our college coach take our SAT's for us

lol u mad?
