I think the FO is too in love with Deng to do him like they did BG though.
The Bulls offered BG 5yrs/50mil and he turned it down. The Bulls offered BG more than what he was worth...they did him just fine.
What is definitely for certain now is that Ben Gordon bested any contract offer he ever received from the Bulls. As he's making 51.2 million over the five years that would have been the Bulls first offer (5/50) with a player option for 13.2 in the 6th year, or he's making 64.4 million over the same 6 years the Bulls offer last year of 6/54 would have been.
