Bulls Already Looking To Get Dwight Howard

by Ryne Nelson

The Chicago Bulls are only a player or two away from being legit title contenders, and their eyes are completely focused on one in particular: Dwight Howard.

Just a day after their elimination loss to the Miami Heat in the Conference Finals, the Bulls began their push to land the most dominant center in the NBA.

ESPN‘s Mike Wilbon mentioned that Chicago is already looking to acquire Howard on Friday’s episode of PTI (podcast link starts at 15:35). The Bulls have a lot of pieces to entice the Magic in a trade, but it could be all for naught if Orlando has its mind set on keeping Howard.

Especially with the uncertainty surrounding the new CBA, the Bulls are getting into themselves into a long process of negotiations, similar to the Melodrama the Knicks endured last season. It’s a dream, but give the Bulls credit for chasing it.

    First of all, unlike some of this league, Rose actually listens to his coach.

    If DHoward joins the Bulls, Rose will get him the ball in the post – believe it.

    Howard is not going to go out like Garnett and wait too long to get his original team in order. He is going to seek it out.

    Pray Bulls.

    off-topic lyric inspired by a loud-mouth Heat fan:

    “…LeBron is all shoulders, no head.
    Tried to make a dynasty, died nasty instead.
    Now he’s hated and debated while your faces turn red.
    His victory is sick to be eroding his cred…”

  • Pippen what u smokin?

    After reading Dwight Howard’s recent comments about electing to become a free agent, I’ve come to realize that Dwight will land in either LA, Chi, or Orlando. I really don’t believe Deron Williams will remain in NJ (doesn’t look like Jay Z has the pull to bring in superstar talent) but I do see him heading home to Dallas. Look for Dallas to shore up it’s aging PG situation by acquiring Deron Williams..I predict JKidd will retire, Chandler, Barea, Butler will resign for a lil less to bring in Deron Williams.. CP3 will go to NY to join Amar’e and Melo, or he’ll take his talents to LA. In the end I believe Dwight Howard will choose the Bulls, he wants to win and Chicago gives him the best opportunity to win mulitple titles stopping LeBum,DumbWitts and Bostrich run of not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 titles=NO TITLES

    I love all this speculation, but this is why we’re in a lockout!! big time players all trying to team up on big market teams aint that healthy for th league… great for th team and th fans, but just forces small market teams to overpay for mediocre talent.. just sayin

  • Garnett*celtics4life*

    it will be cool for dwight to go to the bulls but i doubt it can happen but you never know. dwight so far is defenitely not going to the lakers because the owner doesnt want to give up anyone. dwight going to the knicks would be great…he could be the big man in the center, melo could lead and amare can go back to his normal spot that he is comfortable with to me they would be the perfect big 3 kind of reminds me of the celtics big 3. oh and i would love for cp3 to be with dwight but you never know what can happen!
