Bulls must weigh if they want James … and Calipari

Chicago Bulls: LeBron James and John Calipari a package deal? - chicagotribune.com

League sources said Sunday that noted NBA power broker William Wesley continues to work back channels to sell John Calipari and James as a package deal to franchises such as the Bulls, Nets and Clippers with coaching vacancies and salary cap room.

Another league source confirmed that an unknown Calipari connection contacted Bulls management over the weekend. This not only once again renders the coach's vows to remain at Kentucky hollow, it underscores the juggling act general manager Gar Forman and senior vice president John Paxson must navigate as they tackle a coaching search while planning for free agency, which begins July 1.

Add in the fact a strong buzz continues to circulate that All-Star shooting guard Joe Johnson is strongly open to signing with the Bulls and that his agent, Arn Tellem, enjoys a close relationship with Bulls Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf and the intrigue becomes greater.

I hate when articles ask the question of if James and Rose can co-exist because they both need the ball so much. LeBron just got a triple double and lost in the playoffs. He is the best passing forward ever. He knows that he has to get others involved and he wants to. Rose is the same way. Rose's assist #s would be way up if he had a legit scoring threat with him game after game. He doesnt want to shoot the ball 30 times a game.
