MeloCam:

Chicago Bulls begin pitch to Carmelo Anthony

July 1, 2014 by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO -- The Chicago Bulls are making the hard sell for Carmelo Anthony.

The Knicks superstar free agent arrived at a decked-out United Center on Tuesday in a limobus with coach Tom Thibodeau and two other people, a police SUV trailing them.

He walked past the Michael Jordan statue, waving to a small group of cheering fans as he went inside.

The United Center featured posters and banners with Anthony in a Bulls uniform wearing the No. 7 jersey.

The Bulls believe they have a strong pitch: Anthony can team with Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah and put them in position to win an NBA title. But Anthony is a top target in NBA free agency and he is expected to visit other teams.

Broussard reporting that Lowry to Houston is not happening. Morey wanted to do a sign and trade with the Raps.

I'm thinking "He got Game" with Noah taking the role of Rick Fox. He seems like the perfect guy for that role. Plus Lala is already cast. I just hope the fun twin scene is deleted from this movie.

Heat said to be targeting Gortat and Lowry. From Berger:
@KBergCBS: agree MT @EthanJSkolnick: Based on my info, the numbers being reported for Bosh & Wade are much lower than what I expect them to accept.

They would both have to take significant pay cuts at around $7M give or take. They could go for one big FA and then go vet min fishing. Call up Carter and Marion to to replace Lewis and Battier.

Yep. I am wondering if morey was trying to send Lin to Toronto in a sign and trade for Lowry as BigDaddy suggested.

I don't see why they would do that since that have not really had a payday yet.

Jodi Meeks 3yrs 19mil to the Pistons.

Knicks interested in Elton Brand.

Rumor of Greg Monroe in a S&T to NO for Ryan Anderson and other pieces. STV as Pres will look to build around Drummond similar to what he had with Howard in Orlando.

I say nay on Brand. Meeks is a good fit for Detroit, but I'm surprised he got $6.3 per. I'm surprised NOH would want Monroe. Do they plan to start a Brow, Asik, Monroe front line?
