    lulz :grin:

    Omer is anxiously awaiting for the iPad and iPad presentation.

    "You stay with the Bulls Omer, you guys are a 45 win team. You come to the Rockets, you are a 60 win team and championship caliber! Come to Houston Omer!" Isn't that what he told Bosh? Ha.

    Berman/Fox26: Morey to meet with Asik tonight

    As first reported by HMMMHMM:
    http://bbs.clutchfans.com/showpost.php?p=6966635&postcount=43

    I'm 100% excited if the Rockets can land the Turkish Judge Reinhold: 26-year-old 7'1'' elite defensive center and rebounder. Your thoughts?

    Have the bulls talked about the chances of them matching? Very likely?

    Ok how much is reasonable? I see Centers are the most overpaid players in this league...

    4 years / 28 mill?

    Will McHale be with Morey or knocking on Gogi's door?

    What's the most we can offer him with the Gilbert Arenas Clause in effect?

    Also, I just looked up the agency representing Asik, ASM Sports. Apparently they aslo represent Kyle Lowry, Derek Fisher, Royce White and Sergio Llull. Safe to say that the team has had plenty of recent contact with these guys.

    Asik is so overrated its not funny. Guy is a serviceable player but people here are acting like he's the next up and coming Turkish Dwight Howard.

    Chicago media seems to believe that we'll keep him around. Joakim hasn't met expectations and is more available then Omer, who's younger and a better defensive player. The only issues with Omer sometimes can be ballhandling and stamina. However I do believe the Bulls will resign Omer, making room by letting CJ Watson, John Lucas III and Ronnie Brewer walk.

    We have a shot at this dude. Maybe a sign-and-trade, if necessary, when we have cap space. You can bet Chicago could use one of our too-many forwards. (Don't know about handing over Lamb [2 guard], though.)

    The Bulls have some salary cap issues going forward and won't be able to pay Asik his asking price.

    Of course, you could find out his price....and make a deal for Noah (Martin's expiring + one of those too-many forwards.)

    Probably the best option available at the center spot in FA .... may as well make a run at the guy.

    If Chicago matches .... who's next ?!
