Not much here that’s new or different, but it was pretty humorous. On his site The Ringer, Bill Simmons had some kind of TradeMachine-gasm last week (no joke: I love the Trade Machine and approve all ideas that have a modicum of thought, not the ‘lol LeBron can be had the salaries line up’ ‘irony’), and used it to take multiple shots at the Bulls and their owner Jerry Reinsdorf.
The Bulls play in America’s third-biggest TV market and yet they’re $15 million under the cap, not counting the $3.5 million they made for hawking Jordan Bell’s rights last summer.
