The Chicago Bulls are the next franchise in line to attempt to stop the Miami Heat from making history, yesterday Bulls F Taj Gibson spoke of LeBron James trying to recruit him to the Heat during the summer of 2012.
‘‘We talked about it a lot because I was coming up on my contract, possibly becoming a free agent,’’ Gibson said. ‘‘We were kicking it around, and [James] was saying: ‘Come to Miami. Come in, and we’ll treat you right there.’ I was like, ‘Nah, I’m cool with the Bulls.’ ’’
‘‘I mean, that shows that there is a sense of respect about your game. It means that there are other guys around the league watching you, other than just going up and down the court and banging bodies against each other.’’

Lmao I guess lb wants the easiest route possible to a ring smfh. Not players from sorry teams, not players from the west, nah he wants to play with rivals and make the rest of the east weaker.....hoe shit!
ReplyDeleteI bet he wishes he wouldve went to miami now lol
ReplyDeleteEspecially since miami gone get in that ass tonight....preach your such a hypocrite now correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't nash a rival to the lakers when he left the suns to join kobe? And kobe recruited him? So lebron trys to recruit a bench player not a starter 2 time mvp like nash i repeat a bench player in gibson and that's some hoe shit? Really dude!? I know your smarter than that
DeleteWhen did u ever see preach on this app happy cause we got nash? I said he was better than wat we had last year and after seeing this year...now im not so sure about that. Plus nash is 40!
DeleteIm not kobe or the gm i dont make them decisions ass clown but this makes lb look like he scared of competition. I guess after taj dunked on wade n that playoff series lb said nah we dont want that? Reminds me of when lb was n still n cleveland playing mia. Lb comes down gets hung on a dunk attempt right, wade rebounds goes coast to coast posterizes spongebob! Turns around and says now thats how u do that shit! Loved it, i swear its the first play i thought about when lb made his decision....gonna miss that shit. Had alot of respect for them boys b4 the decision, gaining sum back now because they winning n dominant fashion but still....the nba is about rivalries, playoff wars! If we loose that then this game is shit
DeleteThat dunk over Andy? Yeah I remember that shit. Back in wades prime.
Deletelmao kobe nvr even thought of nash the only reason why nash went to lakers is to stay close to family. lebron calls nigguhas to get his ring
DeleteKobe did talk to nash before he came to the lakers
DeleteI'm sure a lot of superstars try to recruit players so they know their won't be any problems in the locker room. Plus if a superstar wants your help, you'll probably be more inclined to join especially if you're on a bad team. If Gibson was on the Wizards I bet he would've joined the Heat. Gibson is underrated and probably would've outplayed Bosh. Remember Lebron and Hickson in Cleveland?
ReplyDeleteGreat point but he on bulls man. Why u wanna take that away and see mia roll chi n 4 or 5 games??? Only a bitch ass fan would want to see that....im sorry
DeleteMiami rolled the bulls in the 2010-2011 playoffs in 5 games, with d rose I might add and gibson was on the team then too
DeleteI thought it was 6 but wateva
DeleteU dont speak facts u speak hate. Hoe ass. U dont won't Nash now because yall some bums talking about LB yall whole starting 5 are Hall of Famers. Shut yo hoe ass up!
DeleteThe truth hurt dont it? Take it how u want bitch. U cant compare lakers to the heat. dwight was thru trade, besides him who else n la n there prime?
DeletePreach you a bitch I bet you squat when you piss don't u
DeleteI think it had more to do with the timing of Gibson's contract. James knew they needed a consistent rebounder who can score. Can't help it that he's on the Bulls. I actually like the Bulls since I used to live in Chicago.
DeleteLb makes his team better as a floor general a defensive presence as a rebounder as a passer and as a recruiter its the pros u dont have to just take take the team youre delt look at it as anew faset of the gametaj would solidify the post and he comes of the bench in chitown
ReplyDeleteLakers: 16 Miami: 2
