This means it'll probably be a LA Boston finals...again. Lose lose. I'm sick of these teams winning. I'm rooting for Phoenix hardcore now. |

Yep, and Phoenix is laying a fat egg too...these young centers I guess. I would have loved a Magic-Suns championship. But yea, its looking like Celts-Lakers rematch. I'll be rooting for the Celts (though I really disklike Big Baby) cuz Kobe is just so full of himself.

I know! I'm so happy with how's been playing, and getting consistently better every year. Of the "Big 3" Gators, Noah was the one I was most worried about but I've been pleasantly surprised. I was rooting for the Bulls. I think they have such a great, young core. Hopefully, they can keep it up.

Well if the rumors are true... Bosh wants to play with LeBron and will sign with whatever team he signs with if they can pay him too. LeBron has Chicago in his sights according to a lot of "sources". Bulls have enough cap space to afford both guys.
PG Rose SG Hinrich PF Bosh SF James C Noah That's dynasty right there. |

I've been hearing about these "sources" as well. But you have to wonder if he wants to go to an established winner as opposed to one who is currently buliding. Though I suppose its the "builders" who can give him the most dough. Should be very intersting how all this turns out. That lineup would be pretty spectacular though. Do they have that kind of cap?

Yep. Plenty of cap space. And I don't see it being any different than Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett going to Boston. Actually this is better since Boston sucked before those guys and Bulls have made the playoffs 3 times in the last 4 years.

Ah, well if thats the case I really hope that works then. Would be a bit weird seeing him in a Bulls jersey (what # he going to use? Didn't he have a different high school number?) but I suppose if he plans on being the greatest ever, what better place to go to. And yes, lots of similarties to the Celts when they amassed the big 3. We'll see if Chic can make this happen.

Orlando I don't know about. Obviously they have to upgrade Vince Carter but with whom? It'd suck if Dwight is Shaq 2.0 and skips town to get his rings. |

![]() I wonder how the firing today affects James. Clev's got like 30 days to make it happen. And yea, Orlando is a mess. Vince was supposed to upgrade Turk and now we need to upgrade him...I really thought that this year, as opposed to last, was their best chance as they were really clicking on all cylinders. Would that be something for the team that swept the 1st 2 rounds to get swept in the Conf. finals?! Let's see how they play tonight. |

Good hard win by Orlando, Dwight is unreal.
Honestly this series isn't over. Taking the game to overtime you could see how tired the celtics were. They'll be tired going into game 5 now. Win that one and it's a new series. I doubt they'll win the series but at least they're showing some fight. |

Finally Dwight showed up! I'm still not completely convinced by these guys though as for me the win amounted to 2 things: a bit of over-confidence by the Celts and 2 ugly, yet lucky 3s by Jameer in OT. But we'll take it!

Magic do it again. Is this going to be the first team to come back from a 3-0 deficit? I hope so!

I know! I'm not trying to get my hopes up but at least I feel better about their playing. I just wish they had played like this earlier...
And wasn't that insane about all those injuries?! I honestly can't even remember the last time I've seen a concusion in a BASKETBALL GAME, much less two! |

Getting back to Lebron the Bulls have about 23 million to spend on free agents is summer and which would only land them one max free agent. They would have to sign and trade Deng or Hinrich to Cleveland or Toronto if they wanted both Lebron and Bosh. As for Lebron’s number they say it’s going to be 6.
As a Bulls fan I can only hope. ![]() Spoiler:

Didn't Bosh say he would take a pay cut if he could sign with LeBron? It's probably bogus. Unfortunately JR will never pay the lux tax even if we have a championship caliber team in the making (though he says he would if they look like they could win it all I still don't believe him). Hopefully we can find someone to take Hinrich or Deng with their inflated contracts.
I'm not a fan of LeBron but I am a fan of winning so I'll take him, I won't be his #1 superfan though. That still goes to Rose ![]() |

I don't remember where I read it, but I think it was said that Toronto might go for a Deng and Gibson for Bosh trade. But I think Toronto really wants Noah and the Bulls have said that they wont trade Noah. Yeah, but your right I don't think any team would want Hinrich's $10 mil. a year contract.
