    Yeah...

    Suuurrrreee, the Bulls decided they didn't want Antonio Davis. Hahaha...they just didn't publicly want to look like fools again. Fact is Eddie Jones and Tracy McGrady used them last year and Antonio Davis used them this year to get a bigger contract because he couldn't use Orlando b/c they couldn't clear cap space. He chose to play with Chicago over Houston b/c we don't have as much cap room. Everyone knows the bulls are desperate, look at what they are paying Ron Mercer..
    Its going to be a rough season...but thats ok because you guys can watch Kobe, Iverson, Shaq and Vince !!!

    Thats ok...there's always next year...

    HAHAHA! Yeah right, if he ran out of options Davis would have signed with Houston, or Orlando or Phoenix before he signed with Chicago. There was no way on god's green earth that man was going anywhere near the Windy City! I like how they spinned that story though. I don't hate Chicago, just Krause, but you have to be in denial if you think the Bulls turned down Antonio Davis and avoided being used by him. They just weren't serious because they knew he wouldn't never go there, especially over returning to Toronto, or going to Orlando.

    More spin from Sam Smith, Krause's puppet and the master of trying to spin off everything they do as good.

    And how would they not deal with Toronto because of something Duffy said? Makes no sense, esp. if they are going after Oakley.

    Couldn't Davis have used the Rockets as leverage? After all, there were several stories printed about the Rocks showing an interest?
