NBA: Bulls: Hinrich and #17 pick to Wiz

[CP44]

Would you rather have a 14 mil dollar contract backing up lebron?

Totally different situation.... Deng is a much better nba player when healthy then hinrich..... I'm sure they will trade Deng too and maybe they can get a another post besides noah... Saying they shouldn't go after the best player in league is ludicrous

 

[clonefreek]

Seriously? If you put Kobe on that team they are 8 seed at best

How do you honestly think that? They were the 8th seed this past year so adding kobe would not improve them at all? Kobe is twice the player lebron is...

Yes Lebron is a freak athlete, Kobe is a shooter, leader, focused, and does anything he has to do to win. Lebron cannot carry a team he had everything he needed to win this past year and couldnt pull it off.

I am just saying lebron takes the ball away form Rose, they dont need him to do that. He needs to learn to be a leader and needs to learn that being Cocky gets him no where.

Why would you want to take the ball out of the hands of rose? its insane he would not work well with lebron i am sorry

It's hard to say if he would handle the ball as much with the Bulls as he previously has been with the Cavs. While playing with the Cavs he hasn't had a PG with anywhere near the skill of Rose, I think he handled the ball in Cleveland more out of necessity.

Not really.... He isn't a pure scorer... He could still be able to create for Lebron... Look how much better the Cavs got when they got Mo Williams... They could take some of the pressure off of each other

And lebron has proved he cannot carry a team to a championship as well. He doesnt fit the profile of the team. The Bulls need 2 things, inside scoring presence and a shooter, lebron is neither.

You're right, he is, however, the best player in the league. And what void does signing Joe Johnson fill? He put up 13 ppg against the Magic in the playoffs, and he's not as good on defense as LeBron is either. Not wanting to sign LeBron because it would take the ball out of Rose's hand is a very dumb reason not to sign him. Rose isn't a Steve Nash type, he's more of a scoring point. Having someone else be the focus of the opposing defense would make his life a lot easier. Plus with those two running the break it would lead to tons of open court baskets for both of them.

Kobe plays to win, lebron plays to look good. I am just saying i am a DIE HARD bulls fan and i think keeping a defensive guard like hinrich on the bench is the best option, he is experienced, plays monster Defense, and can lighten the load for rose

I'm not sure a broken down Shaq or underperforming Jamison count as everything you need to win a championship.

You realize LeBron is much better defensivly than Hinrich is, right?

Haha are you kidding me? The Cavs were the NUMBER 1 SEED! All he had was a washed up Shaq....


Kobe has Pau, Bynum, Artest, and Fisher....

Lebron definitely did not have everything he needed to win... He had to play point for half the year cuz mo williams was hurt

If this was about the Heat you'd be quoting it as gospel.

I hope you realize the Heat now have enough room to sign 3 MAX players. With the almost guarantee James Jones is gone we get even more room and only 2 players under contract; beasley and chalmers. Beasley is supposed to be traded for more cap space, maybe tonight, so we could potentially only have 1 player under contract after the draft tonight. That is a lot more cap room than the Bulls which = more room to sign big names.

Im a bulls fan too and what has that gotten us so far? notta... time to move on... changes need to be made

 

[CP44]

So your saying Lebron doesnt play monster defense?

I am sorry but Kobe is the best player, he sacrifices his body day in and day out to win, he does everything he has to to win the game and make his team better.

Lebron is lazy at times, is a baby, streaky shooter, and doesnt trust his teammates to help out. Most people see lebron on the high light reel but if you watch him he is all of the things i have listed.

How else do you explain the best record in the league 2 years in a row, best home record 2 years in a row, one of the top defensive teams 2 years in a row?

 

[clonefreek]

You realize LeBron is much better defensivly than Hinrich is, right?

Cuz lebron would be guarding point guards?

 

[clonefreek]

Trust me, lebron doesnt fit the style

 

[CP44]

Cuz lebron would be guarding point guards?

That's what Rose is for... You can find another pg that is just as good as Hinrich to be a backup for a much more reasonable price than 8 mil

 

[CP44]

Trust me, lebron doesnt fit the style

To be honest you don't really sound like we should trust you....:biglaugh:

What else does LeBron need to win it? Bosh and Wade? I'd hope they win it all.
