Questioning the Bulls as a Top Eastern Conference Contender
This off-season had a lot of roster movement throughout the entire NBA. For once, the eastern conference took some of the star power away from the western conference.
The Chicago Bulls are one of these teams. They raided the Utah Jazz when Carlos Boozer and Kyle Korver made Chicago their new home.
Okay, if you read bullshome.com, we know this stuff. Lets get to the point. All of the rebuilt teams are being questioned for their free agency pickups. Hoopsworld.com thinks the Bulls are the only team to have these pre-season questions as the site shares their doubt in Chicago’s quest for elite status in the eastern conference. .
Day 1: Everyone wins the Lotto
July 1st is the day anyone who has anything to do with the NBA has been waiting for…free agency.
Friends of mine on Facebook wrote update status stating they were not doing anything except watching ESPN to see who was going to what team. Chris Bosh, one of three big names in the free agency market, tweeted he was also watching ESPN to see what moves were going to happen. Then he tweeted he was going to Chicago to here their pitch, I got excited.
Anyway, four players were signed during the first day of the open market. All of them were over paid. David Stern must have been handing out winning scratch off lottery tickets to these players because they’re not worth the contracts they graciously accepted.
Kerr dominates Paxson in poll
Last week when Steve Kerr resigned as the general manager of the Phoenix Suns,because he wasn’t going to get rehired, I pondered the idea of Kerr coming back to Chicago to replace John Paxson as the Bull’s Vice President of Basketball Operations.
I asked the question to you, who would be a better for the Bulls, Kerr or Paxson. Kerr dominated Paxson, getting 36 of the 52 votes. I wonder if Kerr would beat Gar Forman, like he did Paxson.
The 2000-2009 Running of the Chicago Bulls
The decade began with the Chicago Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf trying to replace the championship roster he had in the 90′s. We know the story. Michael Jordan retired, then un-retired for a year or two for a season with the Washington Wizzards . Phil Jackson left for the Los Angeles Lakers, where he three-peats to start the decade. Scottie Pippen was traded to the Houston Rockets and Dennis Rodman went completely over the edge.
Brad Miller returns to Chicago
As the trade deadline is upon us the Chicago Bulls made a trade yesterday to require former Bull Brad Miller and John Salmon in return for Drew Gooden, Andres Nocioni and Cedric Simmons.
John Salmons is averaging about 18 ppg this year and Brad Miller averages almost 12 ppg and 8 rbp.
Brad Miller played for the Chicago Bulls in from 2000-2002 before being traded to the Indiana Pacers. Miller is now 32 years old.
