Basically the NBA went and lost its mind.

So this year's a loss but at least LeBron will be back on the Heat where he belongs in 2018.

Do you think Pat Riley would welcome back the King?

I think Riles would rather be relevant and win with him than continue to be irrelevant and lose without him.

FWIW I meant to type "possibly win".

Look on the bright side, your Bulls will have Wade for a few more months before paying him to be the Cavs' 6th man.

I'll happily donate to his buyout fund. Cam Payne needs minutes. He is the tank commander.

In other Bulls news, a Fire Garpax billboard is going up later this month that was funded by fans.

League is decreasing the amount of timeouts from 18 to 14. Also decreasing the amount of mandatory TV timeouts to just two per quarter. All timeouts will actually be 60 seconds. Finally, teams can only take 2 timeouts each in the last 3 minutes. Great changes.

Now they just need to eliminate live ball timeouts and consecutive timeouts.
