So No Carlos Arroyo to the Bulls(Reported)

The Bulls are not looking to sign Carlos Arroyo.
Rumors swirled over the weekend that Chicago was looking to sign Arroyo, but the Daily Herald reports that no such plan was ever discussed.
The Herald points out that the Bulls have Kirk Hinrich, Jannero Pargo and Lindsey Hunter to backup starting point guard Derrick Rose.
In addition, Chicago is very close to the luxury tax threshold.

Wow!!! Arroyo a Bull; man always been a fan of this guy. But I think this will still be a very good signing for the Bulls, this can provide a little bit more depth to Our team. Arroyo is a very good ball handler who is real good at slashing and when he is filling it he can fill it up.(Check the link at the bottom to look and see) Also, Arroyo is a vet who has played in the league before and he can provide a little presence in a locker room, you also look at the price we are getting him at and the amount of the duration of his contract; The Bulls get another low cost solid player as a Steal. I`m not saying that he will set the franchise on fire, but he will be really exciting to watch when he is on; but when he is cold then turn off your TV`s folks. But It should be real interesting how they use a Pargo now, he has similarites to Carlos the only difference is Pargo isn`t as great of a ball handler as Arroyo is. So this is one of those stay tune; I would be excited to have my boy Carlos Arroyo on the Bulls still a Fan of his. A Best Luck Being A Chicago Bull If we get you Carlos, Till then Enjoy your highlight from back in the day click on the link)

Stephen Jackson wants out of GS

(I guess this is his farewell to Golden State Pic)

Stephen Jackson wants out of Golden State and has hired an agent to facilitate a trade, our Marcus Thompson II confirmed late Friday night on our "Inside the Warriors" blog.
Jackson told an audience gathered Friday in New York for a shoe company's party that he doesn't expect to be with the Warriors when the season begins in November.
Jackson stunned the crowd after he was asked by an MC if he thought the Warriors would make the playoffs.
" "Um I don't think I'll be a Warrior next year. I'm looking to leave," Jackson said.
The 31-year-old Jackson signed a three-year contract extension with the Warriors while acting as his own agent last November. But, he has since cooled on the idea of playing for an organization that has missed the playoffs in 14 of the past 15 seasons. Jackson said that playing for Don Nelson and his offensive system was fun, but now rewarding enough.
"(Playing in Nellie's system) gave me a chance to show everything I could do on the court," Jackson told Dime Magazine Friday. "It was great for me, but at this point, I'm 31 years old. I have four or five years left, I want to be in a situation where I can continually be in the playoffs and get another ring. So that's where my mind is at now. "I'm just looking to go somewhere where I can go and win a championship." Jackson said he's already informed the Warriors of his wish to be dealt and he mentioned Cleveland, Texas


(Houston, San Antonio or Dallas) and the New York Knicks as his preferred destinations.
Jackson led the Warriors in scoring (20.7 points per game) and assists (6.5) last season while playing in just 65 games. He underwent season-ending toe surgery in March.

Derrick Rose wants to be the best in the NBA; and become the top PG in the League

Derrick Rose was asked to describe his expectations for the 2009-10 season and he revealed his high expectations.

Derrick Responds:

"To be the best player in the league at my position, and hopefully be the best player in the NBA," said Rose. "There's no point of playing basketball if you don't want to be the best -- or doing anything if you don't want to be the best. So that's my goal for next season."

I hope Derrick reaches that status he has all the tools to be a superstar; hopefully he can grow and mature to step in to that superstar player that we need. This is a real critical year for the franchise if Derrick can carry this young and more experienced Bulls team to another level, then things will get very interesting for a potential Superstar 2010 FA joining us; Also this team will be a team that can be known as a top tier team in the East. But this has to be the year Derrick takes his Superstar Potential to another Year, this can set the Franchise up with a bunch of success for years to come.

Grizz denying a Answer? Huh

Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace is denying that the club has made a contract offer to Allen Iverson.
Iverson tweeted on Wednesday that Memphis made him a contract offer, and ESPN.com reported soon after that Wallace confirmed the guard's claim.
However, Wallace denied confirming the offer through a team spokesman on Thursday. The team does have interest in the future Hall of Famer though.
"We have had a strong level of interest in Allen Iverson since the beginning of free agency and we have made that very clear to him," Wallace said in a statement.

Memphis offers The Answer a contract

Chris Wallace told ESPN.com Wednesday night that negotiations between Memphis and Allen Iverson have advanced to the point where the Grizzlies have made their first formal offer.
"We're heading into the home stretch before the season, and we have had interest in Allen all summer," Wallace said. "We've been in touch on a fairly consistent basis and had dialogue with his agent, Leon Rose, since the beginning of free agency."
Memphis is approximately $3.5 million under the salary cap for the 2009-10 season and thus could easily outbid Charlotte and Miami for Iverson.

Sessions To New York???Deal looks Dead What??

Alan Hahn writes that the Knicks do not have a standing offer to Ramon Sessions and that the team would only make a long-term commitment to the restricted free-agent if Donnie Walsh is able to move the contract of either Jared Jeffries or Eddy Curry.
Hahn therefore concludes that the Knicks' chances of landing Sessions this summer are remote.

Joe Smith agreeds to a one year deal with the Atlanta Hawks(on the veteran minimum)

Anthony Carter resigns a one year deal with the Denver Nuggets

-New info on the Bulls(minor)

-both Lindsay Hunter and Aaron Gray have no trade clauses(which is very interesting to me you usually only have that for your superstars)(Mainly Kobe Bryant,Lebron James and also DWADE) Are the guys that have this option, this means with the no trade clause that any trade their clubs try to put them in or if they demand a trade; the player can either Deny or can agree with the Trade. Just a Brief explanation on the no trade clause; My question But why for guys on the team that aren`t our main core or aren`t even Building Blocks for us, also to add that it`s tough If we have a ideal trade and If one is envolved(Most likely Aaron Gray, because I believe they want to keep Lindsay Hunter for this year and then add him to the Coaching Staff Next season) they could knock the Perfect deal out from under the bulls; so we will have to see.

Bulls Have a Fondness for David West

According to the sportsunplugged twitter page, the bulls are expressing fondness for David West. League office insider has stated bulls GM had talks with sixers and hornets. Bulls see david west as a likely player they would move Tyrus thomas and Jerome James expiring for. Well First I think this would be a very good trade; because the trade insures Our 2010 plan(so not a big affect)(we could make a push for another Big FA). Second, this trade we don`t lose to much, and David West is on a Contract that starts on about 9.5 million and in two years will be down to about 7.5 million; So this will help with the teams future financial Plans moving forward and they get a very talented experience PowerForward that will produce some good numbers. Those two reasons the Bulls can not turn it down. But I think one thing that can destroy this from happening; You always have to have a team agree upon a deal, To me this would seem like a salary dump because David West is the 2nd best player on the team and his contract is not a very bad deal. This means that they will try to have a potential one year project in Tyrus(I Still like Tyrus) which If i`m correct Tyrus is a Restricted Free Agent so his team can match any offer, but what if tyrus ask for to much or they don`t like what he provided their team then You lose him and Jerome James he`s never going to remain on your team your using him because his contract comes off the books(6.6million)this year. So to me This is a great win for us Bulls Fans but I think Hornets Fans might not be to happy with the after effect of this Trade. P.S. but If Tyrus can become a player this will be a very interesting Possible Trade to revisit.

Right Now this is all talk from some sportsreporters from Chicago who tweeted this info on their twitter site. THIS IS MY ARTICLE I WROTE SO THIS IS MY THOUGHTS BEING EXPRESS NOTHING HAS HAPPEN YET JUST TALK I TELL YOU!!!!!

NFC EAST PREDICTIONS

NFC EAST PREDICTIONS

1.NEW YORK GIANTS

The Giants last year suffer a lot of interesting ordeals; But the major one was Plaxico Burress(we all know the story so no need to explain) I feel like this team will be focus and will play better;(But come on it`s New York, their are always distractions and add that to the situation that`s on going with Plax and Antonio Pierce)(my thoughts and prayers are with those 2 men). Anyway, this team will still be the top dog in my mind(in the NFC EAST) they still have their excellant QB in Eli Manning add that to a solid running game and developing their young wideouts and Defense improving; this team should no doubt be a strong contender for that #1 spot.

2.Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles should be much improved with the Good Draft that they had and also adding a few pieces in Free Agency; This team should be Poise this year to compete to be the top dog in the Division this year. The Offense(will always be a strength as long as you have a great QB like Donovan McNabb) should be more balance and I believe we will see more consitent play from the receiving core and running back Core. The Defense will be hurt by losing the Man Behind All Those Great Philly Defense Teams since 99 and Also One of the Greatest DefenseMasterminds in the History of the Game also, did I mention he is a Hall Famer. But I still expect this D to be inspired by the lose of their beloved Defensive Coordinator Jim Johnson(who is now in a better place). So expect this Philadelphia team to be fighting for the 1 spot in this division.

3.Dallas Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys will be a very interesting team to watch(Honesty The Cowboys Are A Soap Opera). I have to admit I was really feeling like the Redskins Could and possibly should be at this 3rd spot but injuries was the major reason they got push to 4. The Offense should run smooth, but the Offense could possibly take a big hit; I know TO was a distraction, but people forget that the guy they call TO was a #1 Option, so it will be interesting how Roy Williams does as the main wideout for the Cowboys. Roy has been a #1 option but alot of times he fades but Roy has all the ability in the world to be the guy so we will see. Tony Romo is still a very good QB so expect him to have a little more understanding this year and also focus. Like I said the O will run smooth; I think the D will be about the same with a little improvement. Expect this to be a year of steady improvement or this year will be a letdown.

4.Washington Redskins

The Redskins I honestly think this team has the talent to reach the top 2 in this division; But the Redskins are always hamper by injuries on their Olines or Dlines, so that`s why I have them down at the bottom. I also believe that Dallas and Washington you can really swap both of them; They have a few similar problems that`s why both of these are at the bottom of the NFC East. The Offense will be better and should improve under Jim Zorn in his 2nd year, also add a young talented QB Jason Campbell who`s in a contract year; The Defense should be a upgrade from last year, add that now to Free Agent signee Albert Haynesworth(aka the 100 million dollar man) and also a very good draft featuring first round pick Brian Orakpo; This Team like I said Before has a lot of talent to reach the top 2, but so many questions still has to be answer before they can make the Jump.

NFC SOUTH PREDICTION/PREVEIW PT.2

NFC SOUTH

1.Atlanta Falcons

I feel this Atlanta team has improved quite a bit; Very solid draft add that to getting Future Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez at TE. Everybody can agree that The Play of Matt Ryan(the franchise guy) as a rookie last year was incredible(he won ROY) add that to the production of the running game and also can`t forget about the Big fellas down in the trenchs the O line, also his widereceiving core. The Defense was solid last year they made plays when they needed to make them; This Defense also loss their reliable Middle Linebacker Keith Brooking, but they still got younger(by the draft on D) so expect more solid D from this unit. Lastly, I didn`t put Atlanta #1 Because their my team(well maybe I did Kind of??? we will never know) But I think this team is poise to make a big run and we all know about the wacky NFC SOUTH we have different winners each year. So this is their time to be Champions of the NFC SOUTH.

2.Carolina Panthers

This Carolina Panthers team won the NFC SOUTH last year(and was #2 seed in the playoffs);But like i stated before I`m going with history and saying that the Panthers will not win the South. Even with that being said, I still feel this team can still fight for that #1 spot on top of the division; But I just feel this is Atlanta`s year to win the South. This Carolina team still even fallen to #2 in this divison will be a threat so Watch Out; Because this Offense still has a nice looking 1,2 running punch also Steve Smith and other solid receivers, and did I mention a very good QB in Jake Delhomme, also add that to their pattern solid D. This team I see them as #2 in the south, but has a strong possiblity still to be in contention for #1 in the south.

3.New Orleans Saints

The Saints this team really underacheived last year; Due to injuries and other Distractions, also add that to the lack of a running game. This Offense really had nothing to go to when the game was on line besides their passing game. Their Running game took hit because they were really relying on Reggie Bush and Pirere Thomas, and as we all know Reggie`s game is more of making that explosive impact play out on the outsides than pounding the ball insides; also add that to Pieire Thomas who`s strengths was pounding the ball inside but he had to much on his shoulders at the time. But I do think the running game will improve But don`t count on drastic changes. Also their Defense was a bit of a letdown I expect the D to be better. But all the positives really outweighs the negatives with lower expectations; This Offense will be even more explosive with Drew Brees(Enough Said) at the helm again this year and you provide him with a very capable Tight End in Jeremy Shockey SKY`S THE LIMIT WITH THIS OFFENSE. The D added more youth from the Draft and added some pieces in Free Agency so like I said they will be better. This Saints team will be exciting to watch again, but this team still has to improve a whole lot more before they can get to the top of the Division.

4.Tampa Bay Buccaneers

There`s two words to describe this 09 Bucs team:Youth Movement. This team added some real young talented pieces and also had a lot of departures and loss a whole lot of vet experience. But this team simply to me belongs here for 3 simply reasons:1.Alot of youth but they are talented, this team just needs a 2 or 3 years to groom their youngsters. 2.Offense is really suspect this Offense does`nt look like a very good O. 3.Not to sure with the D but also add a New Coach who`s trying to establish a New Culture down in Tampa and this process is looking more like a rebuilding projects should be interesting how it turns out for the Buc`s; But i`m just not high on this team right now. That`s the beauty of Predictions I could be wrong, But this is my anaylsis so Lets Give it Go and see how this race ends up.

Quick Notes

Milwaukee Bucks waive Bruce Bowen
Defensive stalwart Bruce Bowen has been released by the Milwaukee Bucks and will be an unrestricted free agent next week if he clears waivers.(COURTESY OF Marc Stein at ESPN)
Bowen's full $4 million salary for next season would have been guaranteed if he was not released by Aug. 1. The Bucks will save half that amount by waiving Bowen and paying him the required $2 million buyout stipulated in Bowen's contract.
Bowen, 38, joined the Spurs in the summer of 2001 and was part of three championship teams (2003, '05 and '07) in his eight seasons in San Antonio. It's believed that a return to the Spurs in free agency is highly unlikely but contenders such as Orlando, Cleveland and Boston have been mentioned as potential suitors for Bowen.
Via his Twitter account Friday night, Bowen wrote: "Just got off the plane [and] got word that I will not be in Milwaukee for Christmas!"
