Great.
Management finally goes over cap.
For garbage.

What's your point?
I would of rather they signed Malcom Thomas instead.

We are paying the tax for 1 reason & 1 reason ONLY.
I'll leave it up to all of you to figure out what that is.

They overpaid for Hinrich. I don't know what other reasons there were but that is the reason I think of. Now if people are pissed over that...shame on you. Especially if Ben Gordon's name is brought up.

My point is that your facts supporting your argument are not facts. I would expect you to know that there was no luxury tax when Jordan played...furthermore, I would expect you to know that one of the main reasons a luxury tax was put in place was because of Reinsdorf's contractual agreements with Jordan.
Your thinking Nate Robinson and Bellinelli are garbage is hilarious. Especially since both had seasons on the same level as Gordon and J.R. Smith last year

That's not the sole reason (though I guess if you wanted to you could single it out as one of the deciding factors) imo, but I did find it strange to see that they had eventually signed him for 2 years/8M after all the reports had said that they'd sign him for the MMLE. Why did they give him an extra 5k or whatever more, especially if they want to avoid the tax? They knew exactly what it would do. It's not like they didn't know the team salary going into the offeseason. They already knew when they signed him that they would not be matching Omer (which is why they didn't give him the MMLE). It's just weird...

Not quite sure...don't know the particulars...but I think that the Bulls going over the cap is not good at all, because of the repeater rate that would pay when they actually have a contender.

I would agree...if I had any confidence in the thought that the Bulls would be taxpayers at the end of this season or that they'd be tax payers in any of the next 2 seasons. The rule is what...3 out of 4 years? 2 out of 3? I forget. Either way, I see the Bulls getting under the tax somehow, either this season or next.
But you know what? If they pay the repeater tax for paying Kirk 3.9M instead of 3.3M, good riddance. Sure the team's gonna suck, but maybe something will get into ownership/management that says "hey...maybe we should actually try to put a real championship contender on the floor when we pay the tax."
In a perfect world (to me) that would say "hey...when we don't put a good product on the floor, our profits drop dramatically. Maybe we should take some of this gigantic profit we've made over the past 12 years and put it back into the team." Ha...like that'll happen. :andruw:

Guess everyone will have a real reason to hate Kirk Hinrich this year. Either his play or the fact that his contract was overpaid by like 7k a year.

ya the bulls should have gotten ben gordon instead
Well actually they should of tried to get Gordon.
Better going over the cap for Ben than this uneffective Hinrich character y'all speak so highly of. :shrug:

Boy did everyone completely fail to answer my riddle correctly.
DERRICK ROSE is the reason we are paying the tax. No one could have foresaw him tearing his ACL, but it was evident from the time he signed on the dotted line that the team would be LT payers from that point on.
As much as I'm not a big Hinrich fan, the hate he's receiving over this isn't entirely justified.
