Doug Thonus of ChicagoNow has it at 5/$58 with incentives, starting at $10m next year.
Do we trust Doug's scoop? Meh, I guess. There was this report from a couple weeks ago that has the contract for less, but that was out before it was even official.
And two things from...

Didn't watch the game, but it sounds like Bulls Rookie James Johnson was impressive while putting up his line of 21 and 8 in 37 minutes. With the overall impression that whether he plays 4 or 3 with the Bulls, he's certainly coming in with the ability (and perhaps...

Friend of the program Doug Thonus of ChicagoNow is in Vegas, and got some one-on-one time with Bulls GM Gar Forman.
Doug paraphrases the chat instead of giving a straight Q&A. And while it's weird that he frames it within his own thoughts (as if those matter relative...

Bulls Re-Sign Hunter
[From the FanShots. He's the highest paid coach on the team. But if his role is mainly to teach, why are we giving him a roster spot and getting even closer to the luxury tax? Who knows! I guess Lindsey Hunter is now a 'made guy'' in The Org...

It takes a lot of logical leaps when trying to figure out what the Bulls are doing. Because it's possible, and even likely, that the Bulls themselves don't even know what they're doing. They claim to be players in 2010 free agency now that they didn't pay money...

Sam Smith craps all over the Boozer rumors
[From the FanShots. I'll make this our Boozer thread of the day, and close yesterdays. As a quick take, I like that it's at least a more aggressive 2010 plan. Check the link for Sam's dig at the Blazers, nice! -ed.]

The NBA salary cap has been set for next season at $57.7 million, a decline from 2008-09, allowing teams to begin signing players.

Boozer to Bulls?
[From the FanShots. It's a good idea to rent Boozer for a season, especially since it's looking dimmer by the day that Tyrus Thomas will ever get a contract extension from the Bulls. Though it would've been a better idea to do this and keep Ben Gordon...
