This is a Bulls problem. We can’t tamper with our own player.

The goal of these investigations isn't to compensate the teams who were victims, it's to punish the guilty teams. You shouldn't expect to expect any compensation for these type of infractions.

Well they might punish the bulls by making them send us a first… or voiding the contract and sending Zo back to us. Maybe the latter is punishing us though =)

He got a real stern talking to by the Commish last time they tampered with AD. I’m sure this time he will get a timeout for 5 mins….

Heck, in a way we are the aggrieved party.


not in a way, we are. This was an AD situation that didn't mature. Zo was going to do the same this because Klutch was going to push that shite.

My worry is that the Pels were negotiating the sign and trade before the bell. There was not a lot of time after the opening of negotiating before the players that were coming to the Pels were leaked by the media.

Although, we got the short end in the Lonzo deal, the league could still punish us if Griff was negotiating early with the Bulls. This could have happened with the Heat/Raptors deal as well.

Griff better hope he or the FO is not found guilty. With his shitty record and then found guilty of tampering, I would can his arse.

I’m some ways it would be good if we are found guilty and can fire Griff with even more cause than we already have.

He needs to be fired asap, regardless if he is found guilty of tampering or not.

Dude is a terrible POBO/GM.

evidently according to woj the league went easy on the bucks because they didn’t wind up signing the player. I doubt griffin is behind this, it doesn’t benefit the pels if CHi gets fined. The league cannot adjust the terms of the deal, they can only punish the team


LOL! Ok dude. This trade will be nixed if tampering is found.

Which benefits the Pels potentially.

There’s been smoke with Ball to the Bulls for a long time now. Very doubtful we get anything sent to us, league will just fine them and dock draft picks

Discussing a possible trade deal with the Bulls should the offer Ball a contract and he accepts doesn't seem like it is tampering from the Pels stand point or even the Bulls.

It is more than likely the Bulls reaching out to Lonzo/his reps prior to it and having the deal in place prior to the moratorium. Pels could easily and legally state to Lonzo there is interest in a sign and trade from the Bulls because they were able to talk to Lonzo throughout as the team holding his rights.

In the end, nothing likely comes of this unless the NBA is getting completely fed up with Rich Paul just disrespecting the rules so outwardly and putting them in a bad position where there bias to the big markets is made even more obvious.

And if Klutch is only willing to negotiate with the Bulls, then our hands are tied snd the compensation is not maximized.

The league should have popped the shite out of Klutch and LeBoo for the AD fiasco and they should pop the shite out of Klutch for this.

Rich Paul and Klutch sre toxic.

LOL. So wrong. Remember when the heat signed Juwan Howard in the nineties?

You dont, because the league nixed the deal for tampering.

Tampering happened last year and was cited, except there was no deal to void.

Do your own research homie. I have no idea how many times tampering has been found or a deal has been nixed.

LOL. You are confusing player/agent tampering with team tampering.

Hilarious.

Confusing player/agent tampering with team tampering again.

Players tamper constantly. The NBA doesnt care as much and cant really control it.

Team tampering by GM’s etc - not the same.
