Lakers
Incoming Players: Gerald Wallace, Tyrus Thomas
Outgoing Players: Lamar Odom, Trevor Ariza, Chris Mihm
Bulls
Incoming Players: Lamar Odom, Raymond Felton, Chris Mihm
Outgoing Players: Kirk Hinrich, Tyrus Thomas, Joakim Noah, Thabo Sefolosha
Bobcats
Incoming Players: Kirk Hinrich, Thabo Sefolosha, Trevor Ariza, Joakim Noah
Outgoing Players: Gerald Wallace, Raymond Felton
As much as I'd hate to see Ariza go, Gerald Wallace will be a great defensive SF with superb scoring capabilities for the Lakers, especially considering he'll often be left open due the presence of Kobe, Gasol and Bynum. Plus they come up with a promising young PF in Tyrus Thomas to make up for the loss of Turiaf.
Bulls are looking to move Hinrich after having drafted D-Rose, and would benefit from having Odom's versatility and rebounding for their new up-tempo/athletic squad. Additionally, Raymond Felton could likely become the best second-unit PG in the league and they'll also be left with cap flexibility at the end of next season.
The Bobcats upgrade their PG by bringing in a high IQ play-making/scoring veteran Hinrich, whose potential to raise the team's effectiveness will be maximized under their new coach Larry Brown's system, and acquire three solid young players with only 1 year left in their contracts each in Noah, Ariza and Sefolosha.
