Bulls, Noah finally agree on extension

The Bulls are locking Center Joakim Noah up for the long term with a 5 year extension. The exact value of the contract has not been disclosed but it's believed to be in the 60 million range but is loaded with incentives. According to reports, those incentives are what made Noah agree on the deal.

Bulls fans were beginning to become restless when Noah and his party kept declining offers, however all along Noah said that he had no intention on leaving Chicago, he just wanted more money.

At this morning's practice when asked about his rumored agreement Noah gave the camera a big smile but declined to comment.

Chris Bosh Free Agency Update

According to a recent report by the Chicago Tribune, Chris Bosh is going to try to follow LeBron James wherever he goes. As reported by his agent, Chris Bosh's five team wish list consists of the Lakers, Bulls, Knicks, Heat, and Raptors. Sense LeBron is almost definitely not going to the Lakers, Raptors, or Heat that means Bosh could be heading the Chicago or New York.

I don't know where Bosh is going but I do know this. If Bosh and LeBron team up with Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah in Chicago it's all over. That team will destroy anything in its path as long as it plays unselfishly. That scenario seems like it has the best chance of materializing because both Bosh and James want to play for a winner, with that in mind it would be flat out insane to go to the Knicks. Why? So they can watch Spike Lee on the sidelines 41 times a year? I don't think so.

I'm sure there's going to be plenty more reports like this in the next few weeks. Some will be legitimate, others will be complete speculation. I'm bracing myself for a free agency frenzy as we all should be. Right now it looks as if Chicago has a great chance of landing both Bosh and James, but that could change any day. No one really knows until the ink is on the paper.
