-The Knicks may need to deal a sweetner to Cleveland for this deal to really work out, like Balkman, Chandler, or a future pick.

The Knicks are left depleted, but finally ready to move on from Isiah's mess and rebuild for the future. They also improve defensivley and get 2 legit interior D centers for seasons to come. They will most likely be contenders with Seattle and Minnesota to land the number one pick in the draft. They get shorter contracts as well with future expirings down the line.

The Bulls get a low post scorer and still have enough interior D with Noah, Thomas, and Smith to make up for the lack of D Randolph has. This trade can really improve the Bulls this season for a strong playoff push.

The Cavs get a guy in Crawford who may be on the few bright spots on NY this season to really help Cleveland in the long haul. Crawford can help with the penetrating and scoring alongside James. Balkman also provides hustle and D for the Cavs.

taking equally bad contracts while downgrading massively in terms of talent can hardly be called rebuilding

Where is the Bulls' in/out?

If we're getting Randolph back; no deal.
