Well guess this takes the Europe route off the table for Deng.

Here are the details of the deal.

Forward thinking for Bulls: Deng in

By K.C. Johnson |Tribune reporter General manager John Paxson will confirm Wednesday that the Bulls have reached agreement on a six-year deal with restricted free agent Luol Deng.

wtf, you can add in $9 mil of incentives? like what? downtown apartment and a lambo?

[Guajalote]

$9 million in incentives = free downtown parking for a month and a Gino's deep dish pizza.

Smart move. Deng is definitely a keeper.

Gordon, Hinrich, and Nocioni are all expendable.
