Bulls want JJ/Bron, Bron wants Bosh

This was my point that I tried to make on the last show, that management is insane if they prefer JJ to Bosh. KC Johnson reported that the rumor is out there that the Bulls want to offer JJ a deal on Day 1. WHY? HE SHOULD BE OUR 3rd OPTION, at best. I'm guessing their reasoning is that Bosh has a more suspect reputation defensively. The priority should be whoever LeBron prefers.

Heck, even if LeBron didn't have an opinion, why would we possibly prefer JJ to Bosh? Is there anyone in the world besides Sam Smith, JJ's mom, and apparently Bulls management who would prefer JJ to Bosh? If there is on this Forum, please show yourself and state your case.

Honestly I thought you were over reacting on the last show cause I didn't think it would be possible to prefer JJ. I'm not sure how credible Bernstein is with his sources, but if this is legit, it is time to start worrying. If we go into that meeting telling Lebron we want to pair him with JJ and not Bosh, we can say goodbye to Lebron.

In an attempt to stay positive, we are supposedly the first team meeting with Bosh right after midnight. So lets pray that Bernstein is full of shit

Yea I read that too. However, there's so much random shit flying around you'd think we were all in the monkey house at the zoo.

The problem is it's from "sources". Now if I was a "source" that perhaps liked the Knicks or the Heat or the Cavs, you know what I'd be leaking? I'd be leaking that the Bulls were going to screw up FA just to put a little doubt in LeBron's mind.

I have no doubt that some leaks are true, sometimes people just like to see their info get in print to bath in the (anonymous) attention. But other times it's people leaking things with an agenda. Which is this? We can't really know, but given it makes no god damn sense to sign JJ before even talking to LeBron, I lean towards the later.

I don't understand the JJ/LBJ combo.

If you get LBJ I think they should address the scoring inside. Unless they are just really high on Taj at the 4.

Of course we are high on Taj, he barely makes over the minimum.
