From the Belcher Report

Despite signing Keith Bogans, the Bulls are still open to dealing for Trail Blazers guard Rudy Fernandez.

Chicago has offered to absorb Fernandez's $1.25 million salary for 2010-11 with cap space in exchange for a future first-round pick, according to sources.

However, Portland believes they can do better.

It's widely assumed that the Trail Blazers want Taj Gibson back if they are to deal Fernandez to the Bulls.

Chicago isn't making Gibson available, but they are open to trading James Johnson.

I believe you should only pull a trade if it makes your team better, I don't think a first round pick for him does this.
 
I keep hearing people say "hold out for a better offer." What if this is the better offer?

Why not? It's impractical to start the season with 5 SG's. We're not getting Taj.
 
I'm wondering if we could flip Taj to New Orleans or maybe that's the point of this?

Rudy & Claver to Chicago, Taj and Bayless to New Orleans, Collison & ? to Portland?

I'd love to get a first round pick from Chicago, especially one that will likely be in the teens next year. What more can the Blazers expect for him given his low contract value? I'd rather have another first-round pick than Taj Gibson, if that is at all possible.

No . . . hold out for more than a late round draft pick.

What makes you think that Chicago will have more than a mid-round, first-round pick next year? The East has improved tremendously, yet the Bulls seems to have made themselves worse defensively, and possibly offensively as well.

Make this deal. It creates a roster spot for a veteran later this summer, if needed.
 
I don't think we're getting much better than this.

Boozer gained and what did they lose?

The Bulls lost Kirk Hinrich, Hakim Warrick, Chris Richard (WHO???), and Rob Kurz (WHO???), and added Carlos Boozer, Ronnie Brewer, Kyle Korver, CJ Watson, Kurt Thomas, and Omer Asik. They're gonna be much better both offensively and defensively this year than in last few. I expect them to easily win at least fifty games and finish in the 22-25 range of draft picks. Considering how easy it has been for us to simply buy picks in that range in the past, I would expect a hell of a lot more for Rudy.

EDIT: How could I forget Tom Thib replacing Del Negro?! Adding one of the best defensive minds as head coach will not make them worse defensively. Your comments seems even more ridiculous.

I think Rudy would be a great fit next to Stephen Curry.

The Bulls just don't have that attractive of available assets -- even for Rudy who's value is the lowest it's ever been.

Two things:

1) No, I'm not going to do an exhaustive search of S2 threads every time I start a new thread.

2) It was the latest Belcher Report and that gave me reason to think it was fresh reporting.

Don't like that? Dial 1-800-***-****.
 
Bleacher Report is a source? Isn't that the site where anybody can become a "writer" and post anything they want?
 
KP made more trades after he was fired before the draft than Cho has made.

Cho needs to stop being so close to his players and overvaluing them.
 
Actually, take Johnson. The kid puts up numbers when he actually gets to play. He shot 75% in the month of April. Considering who he plays behind, he might have more upside than Fruity.

Did I ever mention I was laughed at when I said absolutely take Durant? Did I mention those laughs got serious when I said I'd take Noah above Oden? It's true.
Anyone notice Noah's 13 boards, 15 point average, with over 52% shooting and 7 blocks in the playoffs? How'd Oden do in the playoffs? Oh, yah....Bummer....

Johnson is a good athlete but he's Travis Outlaw minus the jumper. Oden didn't play in the playoffs last year.
 
From someone I speak with there have been discussions about a Bayless, Fernandez, Miller for Harris, Humphries & pick
