Let's hope he puts that friendship stuff on the side like he should & make his decision based on what is best for his career...not to go to a team to hang with a friend. :lol:

The latter is the growing trend, tho.

Yeah it's a sad trend. Something that will continue to make the NBA look like a grade school league when it comes to free agency. The NBA is a business, not a petty little summer league basketball camp where everyone's personal wants & needs are met.

I hope the Bulls just add some decent talent in the end.

It just makes me think that basketball will be more powerful in Europe in 5 years than in the states. You're 2 big name FA migrations away from that being the new trend.

the washington wizards have waived al thornton, according to press release. Plenty of teams will show interest in the former lottery pick.

hmm.....if we don't see the FO acquire Butler I am at a total guess who is truly 2nd on the list for them. Corey Brewer is not choosing from more than 3 teams & the Bulls aren't one of them. Azubuike.....doubtful choice. I'm just generally curious...

Chicago fans need to realize that Corey brewer is a piece crap. there i said it. now stop bringing him up. he's ridiculously bad on offense.

Butler officially clears waivers tomorrow some time. I would like to think IF he will be signing with Chicago that he will be doing so not long after he clears.

San antonio needs to win a game for us tonight. i know that i have a strange obsession with the bulls performing the impossible, getting the 2nd seed. It'd be swell, though.

There is just such a huge drop-off between the 5 and 6 teams in the East (Atlanta, NY) than the 7th and 8th (Philly, Indy) that it's even more important to finish in the top 2, imo.

i hope it happens. It's going to be difficult to do. miami has a cake walk, and we're a terrible road team.

Knicks lose to Cavaliers... for the third time!

Heat get killed by San Antonio.

And the Bulls win.

A great day in the NBA today.

He's clearly the best pg in the league. better than paul. better than rose. better than d-will.

I'm sure rondo apologists would point out that rondo is going against the defensive stopper, brandon jennings. *sarcasm*
