OT: Luol Deng out of favor in CHI?

[Wheels]

17 and 9 a night.. that would be a hell of a 3rd option.

Alas the Deng ship has sailed. There isn't a chance in hell they part with him for anything less than LMA at this point; 3 role-players/scrubs is out the window, regardless of how much cap space it provides the Bulls with.

I know dammit! How are they making Deng and Salmons co-exist? Deng at SF and Salmons at the 2?

I'm not sure I see what you're saying? Deng is a midrange guy who can also post up and play a little bit of power forward. Salmons is probably more naturally suited to playing shooting guard and typically he's been a pretty good spot up shooter from the wings and off of the catch.

But I'm not really sure you could say they are coexisting right now, Salmons has had a horrific start to the season shooting a paltry 34% from the field and 30% from distance.

I was mainly wondering who was playing what position.

I actually thought Portland should have made the deal last year to get Salmons and Miller. I have always like Miller as a player, and Salmons has grown on me. Its fracking sick to think that San Antonio drafted that dude too, and let him go.

 

[drexlersdad]

salmons and miller would look pretty good here right now.

 

[Denny Crane]

The Bulls refused to trade Deng for Gasol. I don't think they'd consider LMA straight up, if they'd trade him.

If the Bulls wanted LMA back, they might offer Tyrus Thomas and the rights to Darius Songaila for him.

That's what utter morons we have in management.

 

[Sex Panther]

I'd happily trade Deng + James Johnson for Oden + Rudy

Can you imagine a team with Rose, Noah, and Oden? Thats pretty good, young core.
