3 years from now on, Nurkic will be considered THE steal of this draft. You don't find many 19-year-olds with a 7ft and 280 lbs frame paired with solid tools in every aspect of the game.

Bulls with some bold moves. Now we only need opto offload Boozer + some bench players to make room for Carmelo!

Bulls fan!? Whooo! Thought i was the only one here.

I prefer Love, offloading Boozer will be tough. At least we got McDermott.

If we dont ask for nothing, I think there are a handfull of teams who would want Boozer.

Kevin Love would do it for me as well, but there is no denying if Chicago has an opportunity to sign Carmelo we should go for it...

Just give Boozer away? How many teams would want to take his heavy contract?

The prospect of a Noah/Love front court is mouthwatering. Melo is good, but he's gonna be 30 and has made it past the 2nd round once. But if Rose can stay healty, a big if, my Bulls could contend for a title:D

Gary Harris is better than Dougie Fresh and a better fit for the Bulls. He's a pure shooter with long arms that can developed to a fantastic defender.

I'm really surprised Gary Harris fell so much in the draft. (maybe it was due to his height)

His height? Lol he's like 6'4.

McDermott is a great scorer and if anyone can mask his defensive deficiencies it's Thibs.

Gary Harris is 6'2 and a sg.

"The Michigan State shooting guard measured just 6-foot-2 1/2 without shoes on at last month's NBA Draft Combine and 6-foot-4 1/2 with them on, both considered shorter marks for potential shooting guards at the next level. "

"Harris is getting criticized for his height (he's smaller than the average shooting guard)"

“The misconception would probably be the height issue,” he said

“I’m a basketball player. It might not look good to some people, but I’m going to go out and compete regardless of how tall I am, officially or unofficially.”

Harris doesn’t possess ideal height for a two-guard after measuring 6′ 2.5″ without shoes at the NBA Combine, smaller than scouts had hoped.

Dougie Fresh best bet is to become Novak and have a niche in the nba.

Carmelo visited the Bulls today...

Bad week for ny teams, JKIdd left the nets and melo might leave NYK. Maybe Phil jackson wants to tank?

Holy crap. Great for Cleveland. There is no place like home. Explains why he met only with Heat execs. and Pat Riley. He wanted to let them know he was going home. Good for LeBron.

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

Yes, The King is going back home!

Great for the NBA, great for King James...you can tell from that article that it was not about Basketball, it was about something bigger.

Me and King James have taken our talents away from the south beach back to our home city of Cleveland

I wouldnt mind seeing Cleveland win a title, not at the expense of my Bulls but eventually. We'll see.
