Here y'all go making this deeper for bulls fans than bulls fans do!
None of us feel no kind of way because at the end of the day we just a scorer away from being a real threat to getting out the east. It would have hurt ny more cause without melo they lottery bound. Why should we sit in salt when we are favored by many to get out the east? I'm not even guaranteeing it just saying we still got a lot of good to look forward to.
Scorned would be us bytching about him not coming but more fans from other teams doing more complaining about melo not joining than we are lol
It's all to the good breh

Man that shyt was soooo bogus.
If you think getting Pau instead of Melo for YOUR team isn't a loss. Then... well, that's great for you.
But that team is elite with melo. And only very good without him. I don't really even know what the argument is here... "It would have hurt new york more" The fukk does that mean or matter?
The rationalizing and spinning.. Don't get nauseous.

my man booz, stay gettin paid.
In this Lakers rumors and news update, the Chicago Bulls have finally decided to amnesty big man Carlos Boozer – potentially giving the Los Angeles Lakers a chance to pick him up on the relative cheap.
According to Eric Pincus of the Los Angeles Times, the Lakers are one of a handful of teams who have the cap space necessary to make a legitimate winning bid for the 32-year-old:
The Lakers are one of many teams still armed with salary-cap room (about $6.8 million), though approximately $5 million of that has been promised to re-signing guard Nick Young.
Both Young and returning center-forward Jordan Hill have yet to re-sign, giving the Lakers additional flexibility to add to the roster — possibly through an amnesty claim on Boozer.
The Lakers could also opt to waive Steve Nash, stretching his contract’s cap hit over the next three seasons in order to open up space for Boozer.
With Pau Gasol now a member of the Chicago Bulls, there is a hole in the frontcourt that Boozer could very well fill. Despite posting the second-lowest minutes per game total (28.2) of his 12-year career in 2013-14, Boozer still averaged 13.7 points and 8.3 rebounds per game in 76 contests.
That production would be a welcome addition to a transitioning Lakers squad, especially if they can acquire him on a discount. The Lakers will most likely have to contend with teams such as the Indiana Pacers and New York Knicks who are also looking for cost-effective options at forward/center.

they going for Greg Monroe perhaps?
Houston lost badly. They basically moved Asik, Lin, and Parsons for Ariza.
Denying Parsons team option at a bargain salary so you wouldn't lose him the next year and then losing him anyways

Boozer to the Lakers makes too much sense. They're desperate to bring in as much talent as possible and Boozer wants to play, it's a perfect match.

so this were u dudes went
So now what should we do? bytch every post about it? Damn breh you seem more invested in this shyt than we are
Crazy thing is if we were bytching about it y'all would be clowning about that
nobody said that having melo wouldn't make us better but that wasn't the argument in the first place. How can the bulls lose in the off season if we starting the next season favored as a contender to get out the east? Is ny getting that deal? So again who really losing? All I'm saying is we can't be the off season big loser when just adding a couple of pieces puts us right in title contention. What really is there to argue about that?
I know, but dont lump us with teams that regressed like Houston. I dont think many Bulls fan thought we were the favorites to grab Melo, we know better
It wasnt the disappointment that 2010 was, we just realize we had a chance to be special with Melo
We still added serious talent, and it while most of it was drafted, it wasnt slotted to us because we had a poor season, it was because of moves we made years ago to acquire talent in the future, so finally seeing it materialize is a huge win for us. We've had the patient to wait 3 years on Mirotic, and waited on several years to acquire the much discussed (among Bulls fans) Bobcats pick.
I think we have a 60 win team on our hands again if Rose makes a full return

so this were u dudes went
Naw breh we posed to be in here bytching about not getting melo all day, screw being "optimistic" and shyt
I dont think hes saying that, just saying he realizes we had the chance to be a truly special team with Melo, which I agree
We still winning 60 and taking the East
