Not keep them. I think they keep trying to move Al.

Even if CJ is included, they're still in the tax.
15,000,000 (Boozer)
5,000,000 (Hamilton)
15,506,632 (Rose)
11,300,000 (Noah)
2,155,811 (Gibson)
1,066,920 (Butler)
4,106,000 (Wright)
8,500,000 (Harris)
5,000,000 (Asik 1st year re-signed)
2,798,040 (#7 pick signed to 120% of first year salary)
=
70,433,403
Only way you avoid the tax is by not re-signing Asik or hoping a team doesn't offer the mid level.

I don't want them trading just for the hell of it. Obviously I don't think they would do that, but I'm expecting big things out of whoever they draft.
if we get the #7 pick, we can try move to #2 using the bobcats pick.

The Bulls with Hamilton, Harris and Wright coming off the books would have a payroll at about 52M-54. Not really enough to add a high salary player, but enough to get an average salary guy, and have enough money to re-sign Gibson without hitting the tax.
But you'd still be paying the tax this year..

From everything I can gather Jerry is okay with paying a little tax. How much is the 35th and 52 picks make? That would give us 12. I think we'd barely be over the Tax and would be able to make a move to shed a salary upon Derrick's return.

I love his talent and his demeanor on the court...It'd be awesome if we could get this very talented player...To me the best sg in the draft, better than Beal, Ross and Rivers..

But you're still paying the tax, and if the Bulls goal of this trade is not to pay the tax, then the deal doesn't acomplish that unless they choose not to re-sign Asik.
If you choose not to re-sign Asik, your payroll is at $65M and correct me if I'm wrong, but you'd have the MLE to use.
