    Why didn't Asik sign the $8 mil per offer-sheet? A couple of other guys signed their's today.

    I don't think FA's can sign other teams offer sheets till the 11th.

    Everyone on the list had a PER of 17.0 or higher for the past three years.

    Dragic= 15.5
    Lee= 12.6

    Well there ya go, we could have drafted him instead of Dorsey but apparently Dorsey was their BPA...

    Let's see if Chi-town matches.

    Which tells me Dragic might have played way over his head last year

    Do you know Lowry's PER

    Though it's a small sample size, Asik has played 25 minutes or more in a game nine times. In those games he has averaged 6.2 pts. 10.5 rebounds and 2.6 blocks. And the Bulls are 8-1 in those games.

    Nevermind, someone tweeted it was FOUR years. This is just for 3. I doubt the Bulls match that.

    Bulls will easily match that. If it's too much a financial burden for them, they either trade Noah or wait it out and flip Asik. Asik dumb for signing an offer sheet for that little so early. Should have been more patient.

    It's actually 3. If it were 4, the Bulls would probably match. We need the crazy backloaded 3rd year for the Bulls not to match.

    It's a very reasonable deal. Most likely Chicago matches.

    I'm wondering if Orlando has let it out that they like Noah and would take him in trade. Chicago matches Asik. They get some of our talent, they ship Noah to Orlando as part of Dwight trade.

    ouch...I doubt they match. Welcome Asik.

    Look on the brightside people...Pat gets moved back to PF. I'm not sure even pro-tankers were ready for 82 games of that.
