Dwayne Wade

Once again the Chicago Bulls have been had… Feel the burn.   After trading away Kirk Hinrich and “going through the motions” during this year’s NBA draft in hopes of landing Lebron James and Chris Bosh, the Bulls fell victim to the flirtations of landing D-Wade in his hometown of the Windy City.   This divergence of trying to land Wade cost the Bulls heavy, and seems like it was always a ruse while Miami worked out their deal for Bosh, Wade, and (perhaps) Lebron James.   Wade and Bosh announced today they will play together in Miami, and Lebron James will announce his future tomorrow night on ESPN.   I’ve always felt that Lebron was going to stay in Cleveland, and think he’ll make that official tomorrow.   There were rumors from the start of free agency that James, Wade, and Bosh would all land in Miami.   Two thirds of that puzzle are in place, maybe James will complete it.   This marks just another let down for the city of Chicago, who gets led on and snubbed quite a bit.   I hope people have not forgotten last year’s Olympic debacle, the time when Torri Hunter played Ken Williams, and that whole Kobe Bryant/ Tracy McGrady /Grant Hill treatment streak…   The Bulls only chance to save some face this off season is a move for Carlos Boozer and Ray Allen, which would provide some inside strength and outside touch to compliment Noah, Deng, and Rose.   I doubt that will happen, and if it doesn’t, Paxson maybe looking for another job very soon.
