No joke, that guy has the biggest head I've ever seen. It's always sad to think of what he would've been like if he came to the NBA before all the injuries.

Then again, he would've played for Portland and would have to retire after blowing his knees out after his first year.

The Bulls have hit a new low on the cheapness factor. Marquis Teague is the only first rounder that hasn't been signed yet? Why? Because, while the rookie scale is set, you do have some flexibility on how much higher than the rookie set scale a rookie can sign for (either 120% of it, or 80% of it). While everyone usually signs for 120%, the Bulls are trying to, unprecedentedly, trying to get Teague to sign for 80%, which would save them like $160,000.

This team is never going to win another title and it's a miracle they are currently as good as they are. This is the fault of the owners, not the GM , right?

Of course, Reinsdorf is trying to avoid having to pay the LT, which they would have to as they are slightly over the threshold right now. The article says the plan right now is to try to trade Teague and Rip at the trade deadline in a salary dump.

I had no idea TCB and Jimmerette were childhood friends.

This is incredible.

Robert Sarver is shedding a tear somewhere right now.

Are you becoming a Laker age for real or is it just a joke for the off-season?
