I do. I want him bad.
We need a point guard and would be insane not to want to be relevant for the next 3 years.

My favorite teams
I really shouldn't have to if you thought about it before you posted. So because Collison retired, it proves he didn't want to come to Chicago? How come he didn't choose Boston? Or OKC? Or Utah? So because Niko chose Europe, it proves he didn't want to come to Chicago? How come he didn't choose the Lakers? Or the Heat?
Again, if you were making a joke, it was a bad one. But since I don't think I have ever read anything resembling a joke from you, I'm just going to go with a very stupid comment.

You seem angry. As usual
Yes, it was made in jest. But the Bulls were said to be interested in a player, and that player retired at a very early age for a player to retire.
Most athletes stick around, given the pay they receive, rather than retire young. If he had an opportunity to play for the Bulls and preferred retirement it is not a great reflection on the Bulls.
Ditto a player taking a huge paycut to go overseas.
Most likely they each made their choice for other reasons, but then again, if the Lakerswere pursuing them, perhaps they are still in the nba.
Is that a stupid thought in your mind?

If you have never read a joke from me, you clearly have me confused with someone else. And apparently someone who peed in your corn flakes.

So the West now has 6 contenders....
Lakers
Clippers
Blazers
Nuggets
Jazz
Rockets (a stretch)
Feels odd not to have the Warriors in there. The East has the Bucks & Sixers.

The Bulls absolutely should call OKC about Westbrook.

At this very moment, I'm all NBA'd out... but once October gets here, I'm going to be very excited for the season. This feels like the most wide open season since I can remember

No thanks. I think Westbrook is quickly becoming one of those players that other star players don't want to play with.

Goddamit we just kinda underwhelm and its hard to say why...
but like fucking what? what? We are too good to ask about 3 years of Westbrook? God forbid he is averaging 24-6-7 in three years while continuing to get wiser and shoot better. The dude is a legend. 3 years? Nah...I'd be more worried about the next contract...he wont' fall off a cliff...dude is warrior...epic warrior...no cliff for tough guys who play the game hard. He might get hurt eventually...but he has been a constant.

I think it was mentioned that he didn't want to trade the draft capital if Kawhi wasn't assured to stay.

While continuing to shoot better?
What?
He sucks as a shooter. And NBA players in their 30’s don’t just become better shooters.

Disagree, his style of ultra-physical play and reliance on athleticism is unsustainable any age, let alone 30+. Too late.

Russell Westbrook wants out, but the Bulls make little sense as a destination
The Bulls aren’t trading for Russell Westbrook. Let’s get that reality out of the way before diving in to what a potential trade would look like and how the eight-time All-Star and former MVP would fit in Chicago. Westbrook is reportedly seeking a trade in the wake of the Oklahoma City Thunder...

More I think about it I think the pistons should go all in on Westbrook. They have an aging roster. Their owner just wants to make the playoffs even if it’s just the 8th seed. Westbrook and griffin would be good fits together
