Carlos Boozer to sign with the Bulls

[bleedinpurpleTwo]

can't they still get Lebron?
If not outright, then via S&T (Deng + whatever necessary).

[Rowe]

Its a solid deal. They'll be looking to dump him elsewhere by year 3.

Bulls still have more than enough to get Lebron right?

They better trade Deng or they are out of the Bron hunt.

My threads got more hits, eat a dick GOBB.

actually it does not. this is the third thread at least.

Yes. Boozer's contract starts at $13 million, max contract starts at $16.6 and the Bulls had $30 to spend.

[plat1numX]

im pretty sure they still have room for a max...lbj hope still alive!

[The_Yearning]

it actually starts around 13.65

why are people acting like this is a max contract. and to those saying he isnt worth more than 10 mil per, you are nuts. Hes the best post player and rebounder of the big 3. higher shooting %.

and it doesnt preclude them from getting LBJ either

Boozer is one of the more overrated players in the game.

Dude can't score without LEGIT PG.

[bagelred]

So what does this mean? Is this the piece to try to entice Lebron ? Or does this mean Bulls moved on?

[bdreason]

It was a good signing by the Bulls. Boozer makes them a top 4 team out East. I'm not a fan of Boozer, but he's exactly the type of player the Bulls were lacking. He's going to take a ton of pressure off Rose.

If LeBron takes a paycut.

[Snoop_Cat]

Well, LeBron just went down the drain.

Come to NY Carmelo!

Ya, didn't see the other one because of the title. Still, **** that jobless piece of shit GOBB.

Yup, we still have enough cap space to sign LeBron if he chooses us. There is no negative out of this, except Boozer's injury concerns.

Derrick Rose?

[boozehound]

I don't think so.

then you think wrong. this deal (if its the 80 mil over 5 and assuming the standard max raise % of 8.5) starts at about 3 mil under the max (3.15 actually). that leaves them with just enough room to sign a 30% max deal (the type lebron would get).
