    I wanna see some opions

    – Do you think Chicago is the best spot
    – How good is Calipari coaching wise
    – Does this put pressure on Chicago adding a big?

    I don’t think Chicago will get Chris Bosh. I honestly believe Bosh is going to L.A. or Houston.

    why all the hype about calipari going to the nba … his career record with the nets was 72-112 … i’d rather have my team hire a high level assistant like tom thibideau

    Go to Chi-Town, re-unite with Rose & bring in LeBron.
    Do you honestly think it’d be possible to lose with LeBron? This team was already .500 & a couple injuries away from being better, but I agree about them giving too much hype for John C. He’s already proven he isn’t a “Great” coach when it comes to the big boys

    I still don’t understand why bron would play in the city & arena that “his airness” built. Lebron already has trouble with being under pressure, why would he want to see that Jordan statue for 42games?

    Other than that, Chicago does have some pieces there. Calipari wouldn’t even last long in the pros anyway.

    chi would be the best spot to run the dribble drive system and since they have the best pg he has ever coached on that team that would be a ideal situation, and coach cal is a good coach and that net team he also led to the playoffs his first year with his best player being keith van horn so i would not fault him on that team and that record, and in that system they would have to sign shooters like kyle korver, ray allen and guys like that then try and go after a david lee or try and s&t for bosh because its not llke he is restricted free agent he holds all the cards and could give toronto a list of teams he would prefer going playing for and chi would be on that list and if they some how got lebron i think bosh would put chi on the top of the list

    From what I have read, Cal was very immature when he was coaching the Nets and wasn’t ready fo it. A lot of people say that now he is ready and a lot more mature. I don’t know, just what I have read.

    And I really believe the whole ‘Jordan pressure’ thing is way over hyped. That was a long time ago and this city just wants a winning team.

    i think that city would embrace anyone who could bring championship basketball back to Chicago and that so called shadow would be a non issue, the people who dont want lebron in chicago like knicks fans or nets fans bring up the shadow, but IMO if i was lebron i would wanna be in the shadow of a winner instead of being ewing in ny and not win but be one of the best players ever or be on the nets who no one cares about and it be a cleavland situation

    Let just say Cal wanted to leave KU and go pro. Chi town would be the best place for his success because well dolla130 said
    it above best. But it may not be the best place for Bron I think he can win games their maybe top wins in the NBA
    and lose in the play offs for this he may as well stay with the Cavs.
    I think he needs another player of championship pedigree rugged vet to protect him and not sleep with his mom. OHH
    No sa but he need more than what they have in Chi town and a coach that knows how to make adjustments in playoff games.
    I think the Jordan hype is overrated as well if he wins a chip in chi town they won’t say who cares MJ won six
    they will have a parade. If he wins 6 he will get a statue next to mike. He doesn’t have to win 6.

    I think if the Bulls got Bron they would be alright upfront. They could use their draft pick on a big like Sanders. Noah is a very smart player who understands spacing and positioning. He may not have post moves but he isn’t soft either. I think if you add a guy like james who is a tremendous passer, he will greatly improve Noah’s offensive game by just feeding him the ball in the right spots. Same goes for Taj, who is very fundamental.

    Noah- Verejo
    Hinrich- West
    Deng- Jamison
    Gibson- Hickson

    players wise I don’t really see a difference to be honest.

    I can break it down further if you’d like

    Noah is way better then Varejao,,,,people compare them because of looks. Rose is twice as good as any player on the Cavs.

    If you watched the Bulls at all this year, you wouldn’t compare Noah and Varejao.

    Noah- Verejo – noah is better then verajo hands down and is a good decision maker with the ball unlike verajo who flops every other defensive set
    Hinrich- West hinrich is better at what he does then delonte west and he wont have sex with lebrons mom
    Deng- Jamison- jamison is better but is a choke in pressure situations and deng IMO when he is fully healthy will be more effective then jamison was for cleveland
    Gibson- Hickson toss up

    But what really makes the teams different is that chicago has heart and they never back down, the cavs on the other hand when lebron didnt play well they were invisible

    I never said who’s better. I said this team looks like Cleveland and role wise? Those players would be playing the same role as the Cleveland players did.

    Also, LeBron going to Chicago means he would have to win multiple titles.

    Why would he have to? Because of Jordan again? And I really think Noah’s role would get bigger, especially on offense for the reasons I stated before. I could see him being a 15-11 guy next year.

    of course but he would have win more then won anywhere he goes if he wants to be amongst the greats or he would be talked about like wade or if he dosent win allen iverson and other top players whom never won

    and no they wont noah is a legit NBA C and a double double waiting to happen verajo will always be a role player and for everyone else there more athletic and if they run everything changes

    Yea because of Jordan. If he wins 1, he will be seen as a great player but not the goat. If LBJ goes to CHI, he will need at least 2-4 rings IMO

    Also, I agree Noah could be 15-11 but is that enough? Do you think Noah can contain a Garnett or Howard come playoff time?

    On the flipside, teams will have to contain Bron and Rose.

    I dunno. It will be interesting. I think the whole Bron to Chicago thing is going a little to fast for me to believe. I believe it’s a good fit right now but alot of ppl aren’t factoring a couple things.

    – NY could improve. NY is not out of this race.

    – Cleveland could just rip up that whole team for James, offer him the biggest deal and restart.

    No Bias, just being honest.

    The Knicks could improve the roster in time to be in the LBJ race.

    he just has to prove he can win chips,
    he even change his number to escape that pressure.
    Yes they call him King and chosen one, but I think if he is considered one of the great the will be enough
    if he becomes top 5.
    This Jordan thing is to big for these guys these days so if Kobe wins to more he is the goat right?
    He can play good ball and win some chips dominate and sell the hell out of some shoes and be comfortable.

    Coach Cal going to the pros would be a huge mistake. Lebron should go where he will win, not where he will make the most money. Seriously if Lebron (and other super stars) wanted to win so badly they would take a 10-15 million dollar a year deal so team can bring in better quality talent. Lebron could play in the NBA for free and be fine with all his endorsements, and what not. The selfishness pro athletes display at times, amazes me.
