Chicago Bulls 2009-10 Thread

I just can't see him wanting to attempt to eclipse Jordan's legacy in Chicago. If he leaves Cleveland, it'll be LA or NY.

why ny though? i hear this a lot and don't understand why. is playing with eddy curry and chris duhon a once in a lifetime experience or something? the salary cap is gonna shrink next season and the knicks will have maybe one or two starters back.

i think it's cleveland or the clippers. and if he goes to the clippers he'll prob. blow out his knee and break his neck.

Purely baseless speculation of LeBron's personality and vision for his legacy.

The strange saga of Thomas Tyrus is not turning bizarre.

Apparently Thomas will miss 4-6 weeks after breaking his forearm while working out[/b]. The injury requires surgery.

it done broke.

The Bulls announced today that Tyrus Thomas will undergo surgery Saturday to repair a fractured radius in his left forearm. Thomas suffered the injury today while doing pull-ups during a weightlifting session and is expected to miss 4-6 weeks.

"Tyrus tweaked his arm, and he's pretty sore," coach Vinny Del Negro said after practice and before X-rays revealed the fracture. "It's unfortunate."

[Rieges]

How do you break your arm doing pull-ups? That doesn't make sense.

why ny though?

CHi had MJ
LA has Kobe
NY needs their "all-time star", and he wants to be it. They guy who came to town and won 4 titles for the Nicks.

And as long as Sterling owns the Clips, that won't happen.

From Sam Smith ...

..according to someone in the know, LeBron is viewing the Bulls as a wild card challenger; no other suitor need apply.

That explains why rising restricted free agent Tyrus Thomas... wasn't given an extension. Chicago definitely believes it has a shot at luring LeBron. As talented as Thomas is, the Bulls secured two excellent rookie forwards—Brooklyn's Taj Jami Gibson and James Johnson—in the draft and figure to have roughly $20 million in cap room in case LeBron feels the urge to replicate Air Jordan's Windy City flight plan
