If I'm the Bulls there's no way I'm dealing away Deng in a package that doesn't include more. No way.

Not sure why people are in love with Hinrich and Deng, when have they done anything of remembrance?

Butler > Deng and Kirk put together IMO.

Butler single handedly puts us into the playoffs with ease. I dont know if Kirk and Deng would do it for me.

I'd much rather have butler too, but who knows if he is on the table. On some level, I think he would demand the ball too much.

Long, but good story about Butler's life.

The Bulls may value cap relief more than you do.

(Then again, maybe not.)

PS- I agree with you. I wouldn't do it. But who knows? Nobody figured Memphis would give Pau Gasol away for nothing either.

Right. I just think Nocioni and Hinrich would be more in line with what we'd be receiving.

Pritchard is Jesus though, so if he can make blood out of water, he can turn a frenchmen, spaniard, and a trout into Deng and Hinrich.
 
Wouldn't a package of Bayless, Diogu and LaFrentz for Deng and Hinrich make more sense for everyone?

No, I wouldn't give up Bayless for those guys even though most people might for Deng.

Also the Bulls don't need Bayless they have Rose and Gorden.
 
IMO Bayless will be easily better than Heinrich. So that being said, Deng would have to end up being way better than Outlaw for the trade to even begin to make sense if Bayless was included.
 
Andre Miller is supposed to be available if they don't think they can sign him. Miller and Thaddeus Young?
 
I know we went after R.Jeffewson before. What about RJ and Sessions from the Bucks. I think that could be a possiblity.

Reggie Evans is a garbage filler but Miller > Butler + Deng + Hinrich. We would have an elite PG to go with our elite SG, PF, and C.
 
I'm skeptical if we'd be able to get Deng AND Hinrich, let alone Caron Butler.

Why don't you like it? Miller is a tremendous upgrade at PG and Evans is a banger backup PF that is one of the best rebounders in the league
 
Andre Miller is a UFA after the season, so there's some concern there.

HOWEVER, Sergio and Travis leave, so a yes from me!
 
Don't you guys still need a SF then? Young makes more sense, doesn't he? You can get a backup PF for second round picks, or off of waivers. And Andre Miller probably walks after the season. Though much like BG, he's going to get a much smaller deal than he was counting on....

I don't think that acquiring Young is very realistic. He's a heck of a prospect, and I'd love to have him as a Blazer, but the Sixers must realize what he's capable of, as well, and would be loathe to give him up...

The sixers have been playing pretty well, I really don't see them doing much.

They have without Elton Brand. With him they suck. They need to move Brand (which they probably won't be able to), so they may be open to dealing other guys (as Brand can't play in an uptempo system which Miller likes to run)
 
Thought i would post this in two threads since they both relate. Sorry:

I don't think Quick ever has inside scoop, but if there is any smoke to his trade rumor, I think it is NJ. I think that NJ would do anything to get rid of Carter's contract and get in the LJ sweepstates. I think they would include Harris to get rid of Carter and they would want Bayless in return along with Raef and filler.

That is a lot of money for Paul.

I had a dream last night that we got Marvin Williams via trade. Maybe the Eastern team is Atlanta.

What about something like Bibby and Marvin Williams for Raef, Outlaw, and Sergio? This works under the salary cap. http://games.espn.go.com/nba/featur...797~454~2015~3025&teams=22~22~1~1~1&te=&cash=

I don't think Atlanta wants to blow their team up since they're 26-19 and fourth in the East. Marvin's been showing why he was a No. 2 pick, as well as their giving up their starting PG for two backups and an expiring contract? Only if we could dream...

Yeah, you're probably right.
 
miller likes to run an uptempo offense, then why would he want to resign with us in the off season? nate has the reigns pulled very tightly on this team, no uptempo to be seen in PDX.
