Fernandez a good fit?

“Sources close to the subject” say, the Chicago Bulls are interested in free agent Rudy Fernandez.

Boozer opposes the Jordan theory

The free agency period hasn’t started yet, but there sure is plenty of talk about it, especially for the Chicago Bulls.  They have the funds to pursue and sign any of the big three free agents: Chris Bosh, Dwayne Wade and Lebron James.

Wade has been reported to question the loyalty of the Bull’s management.  Joakim Noah and Lindsay Hunter have been quoted in the media saying Lebron should come to Chicago.  Bosh has listed Chicago as one of his five destinations he would like to play for next year.

D Wade says he is worried about Chicago’s loyalty

Dwayne Wade is going to be a free agent this summer.  Wade is from Chicago.  The Bulls need a two guard.  It sounds like a perfect match,  until Wade questions Chicago’s loyalty.

I agree with Wade, because Jordan, Pippen or any other ex-Bull are nowhere near the organization.  I disagree with Wade because the management that was in place isn’t currently in office.  Jerry Reinsdorf is still the owner, but is he really the guy they don’t get along with, no.

For the most part it was Jerry Krause, who has retired in 2003 as the Bulls general manager.

Since then, there hasn’t been any rumors or problems with loyalty in the Bulls organization.

It would be great for Wade to get over Chicago’s past history and put on a Bull’s jersey.

A trip to 05-06 finals and 2007 MVP overshadowed by failure, can he right his legacy in Chicago?

In 2006 the Dallas Mavericks made it to the finals, losing the championship to the Miami Heat with Dwayne Wade and Shaquille O’Neal.  The following year, Dirk Nowitzki was named the Most Valuable Player of the NBA.

The MVP year ended by getting swept in the first round by the eighth seeded Golden State Warriors in one of the biggest upset series in league history.
