Why would the Knicks do this? Wallace's contract has another 2 and a half years on it.

And 20 million additional dollars.
And they're both awful.
I'll take the shorter deal.

EDIT: Sorry, didn't read past that comment, had to react. I know it's a repeat of opinion.

Thank the heavens that Pritchard moved Zach last summer! Addition by subtraction NEVER has looked SO good for the Blazers! Feels almost like a miracle...lol

Bulls would accept, we could start Noah at the 5 and we would be pretty solid.
Knicks would accept because they would have someone to cover Curry's deficiencies by rebound and defending tougher post players.

I think this deal would be good for the Bulls. Sure Randolph has no value around the league, but his stats dont lie. He provides what the Bulls are looking for. He would allow the Bulls to move Noah to starter, Joe Smith the top big man off the bench. They also have Tyrus Thomas who could be packaged in a deal or kept to improve and take over for Randolph when the time is right...
PG: Hinrich/Duhon
SG: Gordon/Sefolosha

Yeah I would probably take this from NY's POV as well. I think Ben Wallace will get much easier opportunities for rebounds and doing his thing next to someone like Curry.

This is a deal the Knicks would take, but I think the Bulls would definitely pass on Randolph. He has nice skills on offense, but it really never translated into wins, and at that price the Bulls need wins. Unfortunately, Big Zach is slowing earning a membership to the can put up numbers but you can't win with this guy club. So the Knicks says yes, but the Bulls will reject this deal.

I actually think the exact opposite.

Both guys are net negatives for your team, so why would the Bulls opt to take the one with the longer/larger contract?

+1 does ANYONE have an emptier set of stats in the league than Randolph? Maybe Curry? Or is it Jamal Crawford?

I'd cry if the Bulls trade for Randolph and it doesn't include the Knicks unprotected first round pick. Even then I'd fear the Knicks instantly improving and taking themselves out of top 3 pick range.

What exactly is your problem?

On paper, it's obvious. Both teams need what the player coming in offers. i say the Knicks do it/Pax wouldn't-
However, as a bulls fan, I might try. We make SO MUCH $, we could absord the deal later, maybe?
