I like that Rose blossom line.

Well look at it this way, what if Rose doesnt get any better or how many years will it take for Rose to get to a Wade like level?

He's already putting up 20 PPG. Maybe close to 25 next year?

If you watch the kid, you know the sky is the limit. And playing with a guy like LeBron at age 22, watch out!

I believe Rose will get to that level. Like i said, ive watched Wade closely for years now and when i see Rose progressing late in the season and playing his best ball in the playoffs, i remember a young Wade doing the same thing with the same style of play.

25ppg is a little steep. At least for now, and especially not if we bring in LeBron. I'm seeing more of a 22ppg 7apg season for Rose next year.

I meant...y'know...close. Lol. But 22 sounds fine. Better than what he got outta Cleveland. :bullbang:

22-23 points for Rose sounds good to me. He averages 27 in the playoffs and if not for injuries, would have hovered around 22. I just want him to be efficient while doing it and getting to the line more. But if we get LeBron, Rose's assist #s could be around 9-10. He managed about 6.5 with Deng, Kirk, Taj and Noah. Not exactly an offensive powerhouse.

With LeBron I can see him putting up 22-23PPG with 8+APG EASY Add LeBron's normal 29/8/7 and were in business.

I think LeBron and Noah could not only coexist, but would thrive together. Noah's a better version of Verejao...and LeBron loves that dudes hustle.

People talk about how LeBron couldn't play with Noah because of his trash-talk. A) Look at Artest. Him and Kobe were ready to kill each other and now their teammates. B) Noah never once said anything directly about LeBron. He just generally stated his opinion that Cleveland sucks... and who could blame him for that one?

Well Noah did have some words with Bron about his dancing. But knowing how bad they both want to win, they will gladly play with each other.

Id like to believe that James respects Noah for doing that. How many guys in the league would stand up to Lebron? It took some b alls to do that, not because Lebron is going to kill him but because Lebron has so much power/cache. Noah doesnt care. He doesnt back down. Thats exactly the kind of person you want in the trenches.

I see the chances of Lebron going to Miami as 0%. He said his team has a plan and he will follow that plan. Somehow I don't see that plan as sharing the ball with an all-star shooting guard.

Rose is a pass first guard and had to do more shooting because the Bulls shooters just flat out stink. If Rose has James, Rose will be dishing the rock like a man possessed.

Name the last big time free agent the Bulls signed.

You can't go into freen agency with this kind of money and not spend it. We will be getting somebody, and that somebody is King James.

Oh hai!

You must have forgot what happened the last time there was a huge free agency class and the Bulls had money...........

Your statement makes no sense. I never said the Bulls wouldn't spend the money. The issue is who they will spend it on.
