07.23.10The T-Mac PossibilityBy James Lauren We've heard it all about bringing T-mac in (or actually not bringing him in). He will un-do all the good things about this summer! He will be a disaster! He would disrupt team chemistry and play! He wont play defense! He wont work out hard! Hes a prima donna! He doesnt care about winning, hes a loser! Hes all about "I"! He runs his mouth too much! He's done! But before we sign Keith Bogans, lets look at the situation a little more. We can SAY all we want, but the fact of the matter is, the Bulls are bringing T-Mac in to ...

07.22.10Bulls sign Kurt ThomasBy Philip Kay The Bulls have signed veteran center Kurt Thomas to a deal. This ends the possibility of the Bulls landing Shaq, whom they were waiting on to see if he would accept a contract smaller than his demands. The Bulls will bring in Tracy McGrady for a workout Monday.

07.20.10Bulls sign and trade for CJ WatsonBy Philip Kay The Bulls and Warriors have agreed on a sign and trade involving CJ Watson. The Bulls will send the lower one of their 2nd round picks next season in exchange for a sign and traded Watson. The deal is 3/10.2 million with only the first two being guaranteed. Watson will give Rose and backup and a scoring punch off the bench. The Bulls will now look to add some more frontcourt depth and possibly another wing player.

07.18.10Bulls should consider adding ShaqBy Philip Kay With Brad Miller signing a 3 year 15 million dollar contract with the Houston Rockets, the Bulls are left without a quality backup center. Though Omer Asik could turn into a solid NBA player, chances are he's not ready to take on big minutes this year. Options such as Kurt Thomas have been discussed, but no other remaining free agent could have as big of an impact as Shaq. Shaq's options are diminishing with Atlanta stating they have no interest in signing him and Dallas already having Brendan Haywood and Tyson Chandler at the center position. If Shaq really ...

07.16.10Bulls sign Ronnie BrewerThe Chicago Bulls have reached a 3 year, 12 million dollar deal with Ronnie Brewer. This is a good, quick signing for the Bulls on the day that Orlando matched the offer to J.J. Redick. The Bulls were in talks Orlando's Matt Barnes and Jason Williams. Barnes looks less likely now with the signing of Brewer. By Tech 7.16.10 1:05 p.m

07.09.10Bulls target MorrowBy Victor Bellan (Tech) The Bulls will contact Anthony Morrow of the Golden State Warriors. Morrow, a restricted free agent, is exactly what the Bulls need. He is a deadly 3-point shooter who can spread the floor for Derrick Rose. He's also young and athletic and a player who can grow with the nucleus in place. The one issue is the Warriors can match any offer the Bulls give being that Morrow is a restricted free agent. Its unknown whether the Bulls will be willing to slightly overpay for Morrow. In order to grab him and to have the best chance for the Warriors not ...

07.07.10Bulls, Boozer agree to termsBy Philip Kay Shorty after Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade announced that they would sign with the Miami Heat, the Bulls locked up Carlos Boozer for 5 years around $75 million. Boozer, a 6-9 power forward out of Duke, posted 19.5 points and 11.2 rebounds this past season for the Utah Jazz. The Bulls had targeted Boozer last summer offering Tyrus Thomas and Jerome James, but the Bulls and Jazz never managed to agree to terms. Lebron James will announce his decision at 8pm CT on an hour long ESPN special coverage. The Bulls are hoping Lebron chooses them, but they aren't ...

07.07.10Carlos Boozer: Not a free agency failureBy Philip Kay As we complete the first week of free agency, we still have nearly as much uncertainty as we did in the first week. The big three are still out there, while backup options such as Amar'e Stoudemire and Joe Johnson have made commitments elsewhere. If Lebron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh choose to go somewhere other than Chicago, the Bulls would likely be left with Carlos Boozer and someone like J.J. Redick or Anthony Morrow. There is a huge dropoff in talent, but the worse case scenario does not mean failure. Carlos Boozer, a 28 year old power ...
