Chicago Tribune - The Detroit Pistons on Monday tried last-minute attempts at a sign-and-trade with the Knicks and the 76ers involving Ben Wallace, but Wallace rejected both opportunities to come to the Bulls.
Wallace is set to sign a four year, $60 million contract with Chicago on July 12 that immediately will change the face of the franchise.
$100 says this is the best non-trade we ever made. I can't imagine any way it didn't include Frye.
man, you guys are so used to flipping the story, It doesnt say anything about Zeke making an offer, im not a fan of isiah until proven otherwise, but it states that dumars offered isiah, and when ben found out he didnt want to play for any mediocre teams
