Kirilenko would be walking away from about $3 million dollars if he comes back to play on a veteran minimum contract in the NBA. I've read that he really wants to win a title with CSKA too. I don't think he'll come back for the 2012-2013 season, but we shall see.

Bulls should just gamble on him and waive him if it isn't working out. Just like they should have gambled on T-Mac two years ago.Comment

I don't think money is an issue for him though. I read somewhere that he donated his entire salary last season to charity. The championship may hold him back though.Originally posted by G PericoIf I ain't got it, then I gotta take it

Really? You mean Asik's defense is that much better than Nazr's offense? While Nazr has some kind of defensive game, Asik has no offensive game. Potential going forward Asik without question but basing it on the money and skill wise now I don't think it's that different.The Buzz is Back in the Queen City. Cho........I have no idea what you are going to do in this draft man.Comment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (All Transactions 1st Page)
The Chicago Tribune reports, in the midst of an in-depth analysis of whether the Bulls' moves are financially-based or basketball-driven, that Derrick Rose is "out until likely March."
Kaboom.
Reports in May had targeted an early January return for Rose, but March is more consistent with the tentative-12-months prognosis often given to ACL injuries. There's no way to be sure, though. Rose could bust through rehab and make it back by January. He could have setbacks and miss the entire year. It's a long and difficult process with steps along the way, but all of them have to go right for him to hit the optimistic end. And updated projection two months later of March is not a good sign.
Rose being out until March would spell doom for the Bulls' season. They might be able to maintain their pace they did last season, even after losing several key bench contributors, but there's no way Rose is back to anything close to himself by the time the playoffs roll around in mid-April. That puts the Bulls' chances at a title in the "not great under any conceivable scenario" category. And without Rose, if things don't go as swimmingly with the new cast of characters as they did last season, the Bulls could wind up on the outside of the playoffs, a stunning fall from their No.1 seeding in the East two years in a row.
But it's still early. There's a good chance Rose can get back on track, and make January or at least split the difference and return after the All-Star break. Two months to find his rhythm is much better than six weeks before the playoffs and things might be salvageable. But the longer this thing goes, the more the temptation will be to shut Rose down for the entire year. If that happens, this year doesn't even exist for Bulls fans.
Things can change just that quickly.#RespectTheCultureComment

Especially considering what Rose's strengths are. If you have to sacrifice an entire season, so be it. No need to rush things.Comment

I think I've said it in here but in case I haven't, if you're 6'10-7'0 without any major physical ailments and you aren't in the NBA, you're doing something wrong with your life. NBA GM's act like they're one of the secret millionaires when it comes to anyone close to 7 feet tall.Originally posted by BlzerLet me assure you that I am a huge proponent of size, and it greatly matters. Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)Comment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (All Transactions 1st Page)
If it ensures he will be healthy, I would rather have him take the whole season off and start coming back to basketball through non-competitive summer league games like the drew league etc.
That option would possibly land us a lottery pick also...

Source confirms Marco Bellinelli's deal with the Bulls is done. Also: Bulls attempting to sign summer-leaguer Malcolm Thomas to 1-year deal.
Aggrey Sam @CSNBullsInsider
Unsurprisingly, other teams after Thomas, too. Bellinelli deal apparently isn't precluding Bulls from continuing to chase FA 2G Randy Foye.
