    Omer isn't like Swift or his contract. Omer has great size, effort and defensive ability. While I do not think he is a 35 minutes a game center, based on his style of play, position and effort, he will not be hard to move unless he gets hurt.

    Regarding his offensive game, he has regressed the last two years, but the Bulls have not worked with him on it at all.

    this deal is worth it. i dont get some of you posters. you want him at 3 million a year? no wonder we aren't getting any good players and always comes out empty. some of you are making it out like you are paying the dude out of your own pockets.

    plus this dude is easily worth 8 million.

    if you still disagree, please remember what you said and do not complain a word when we start patrick patterson at C on opening roster.

    I never get excited anymore. I bet he turns us down for someone else. Once he see's Morey the hunchback, nerd at his door with an Ipad its all over. Morey will sit down and bore him with his brainiac stats trying to tell him how valuable he is to Morey according to his moneyball statistics and how this all adds up in Moreys brain to some master plan involving some math equation?

    The guy gets bored and freaked out by Moreys nerdyness and waits for the next GM's offer.

    We can't go after Hibbert because the Pacers will match and we might lose out on Asik or Gordon! Oh noes!

    lulz :rolleyes:

    Good for Portland if they get him.

    Do we have enough cap room to sign both Asik and Gordon to reasonable contracts? I imagine neither are going to be coming cheap

    I'm not really the person to ask, ha.

    But reportedly Asik would be in the 8 mil/yr range
    Gordon supposedly would be a S&T.(He's looking for 4 years 58 mil)

    If you're asking could we acquire both? I assume so but that's not really a safe assumption on my part. :p

    Yep

    How much longer will we be using the Yao and McGrady excuse to cover up Morey's mistakes

    Yes he is

    Asik is a BUM, i have friends in Chicago who are bulls fans, and they say Asik has bad hands, and cant even catch the ball

    He is like Joey Dorsey in that he is VERY strong, but his jumpshot will never be good, because he shoots the ball TOO HARD

    LOL at these guys saying that Hibbert isnt a max player, and somehow Nene last year was

    Morey is getting owned by other GM's around the league

    going after Eric Gordon( who has a huge injury history)

    It seems like Scalabrine is overly excited, probably because Asik is taller and is a genuine treat to stealing his lucky charms

    Please explain how you figure Hibbert is a max player. If he is then why is his own team not matching?

    And I recall most around here saying Nene wasn't a max guy.

    Morey is getting schooled
