Ending coming soon for Bulls, Gordon
Reports out of Greece have a Moscow team having Ben Gordon been offered at one year, $5 million dollar contract. That would be similar to a $7.8 million dollar contract in US dollars. The Gordon party made a counter offer to that, asking for $7 million, or roughly $11 million US dollars. It has not been reported if they have accepted that offer yet, but it is expected to be announced some time today.
Expect the Bulls to make a final move for Gordon, either to trade or resign to a contract he agrees more with, or watch him go. The move would free up some room at the guard position, but the Bulls would lose a great outside scorer. Any trade that would be made, would probably have to involve Larry Hughes or Andres Nocioni, to work under the NBA’s Collective Bargaining Agreement. Many teams are not interested in Hughes or Nocioni’s long term, high priced deals though.
Ben Gordon would be able to join any European team, and not count as one of their allowed two American players because of his citizenship in Great Britain.
