Just a question, is all.

Courtney Lee, Carmelo Anthony, O.J. Mayo. Would this series be different? How? And if you had a DeLorean or a hot tub would you go back and make these deals? Seeing as the team is now, what would you have given up? Who else would you have pursued?

I realize it is a total hypothetical and whether or not they could have gotten Melo is questionable but it's a message board so fuck you.

Have at it.

I'd like to have O.J. Mayo

What was the price of that?

Probably Taj, Asik, and the #1 Charlotte pick would have gotten it done.

I think it could have been done for less.

You could be right, he was kind of in the doghouse around the trade deadline. His value has sky-rocketed through the playoffs though.

This team is setup to be a great team in the regular season but certain players get exposed when the intensity level of the playoffs evens the playing field for players like Noah and Asik and Deng.

Hindsight being 20/20, I absolutely regret not dealing Noah to Denver for Carmelo. The playoffs have a way of bringing your worst flaws to the forefront...kinda like Good Dolphin.

No, because Noah is part of the package you're going to need for Dwight Howard this summer (if there isn't a lockout.)

I don't think I regret the 2 guard non-move because the value of Asik and Taj is only going to grow (at least in the mind of my non-NBA GM mind) so hopefully they'll be worth more than an above average 2 guard at best if/when they are traded.

The Carmello one I'm not as sure about though, and every game the Bulls lose against the "Big 3" moves me closer to regret.

We needed the Melo deal. You had no 2nd scorer and now it's killing you. I don't trust Pax to find the missing piece, since he has made several errors, including the Boozer deal.

Maybe if Derrick Rose took 10 less bad shots, and gave the ball to his open shooters...

Perhaps. But I'd also like some of his open shooters to TAKE those open shots instead of passing on them, which I saw quite a bit.

When these open shooters did pull the trigger it mostly ended in failure. The Bulls can't win if their open-shooters don't knock down shots. Korver has been absolutely brutal this series. Bogans hasn't been much better, but at least he can defend somebody. Rose should not be taking another 3 pointer the rest of this season.

I don't regret anything this teams done

Sam presti and rc Buford have clearly shown us how to build a contender with staying power from the ground up.

It's not by being Atlanta and giving guys like joe Johnson max
Money, or by succumbing to panic trades and "big names".

Garpax is on the right track I feel.

OJ is available again Bulls fans.........


Tim MacMahon ‏@espn_macmahon 12m
OJ Mayo is opting to be free agent again this summer. More on

Bulls don't have any money to spend, so this ain't happening.

Unless they decide to trade Deng.... hmmmm..

Well he made only $4 million this past year in Dallas. What about the mid level exception?

No chance.

He's going to want to get PAID.
