The Cavs drastically upgrade their team to give Lebron some help. Firstly, they get a PG in Bibby, who can also shoot the ball to help spread the floor. Big Ben has a bad contract, but so does Hughes, who they are dumping in this deal. Wallace gives them D and toughness in the post. Duhon gives the Cavs a solid backup PG.

Bibby/Duhon/Curry
Brown/Gibson/Brown
James/Pavlovic
Wallace/Gooden/Thomas
Ilgauskas/Varejao/Jones

Wallace obviously hasn't fit in with the Bulls, so they dump him in this deal. They do have to take back a bad contract in Hughes, but he could fit in well alongside Gordon in the backcourt. They also get Moore to help replace Wallace in the frontcourt.

Hinrich/Jones/Griffin
Hughes/Gordon/Newble
Deng/Nocioni/Nichols
Thomas/Smith/Khryapa
Noah/Moore/Gray

The Kings get a good package for Bibby with this deal. Firstly, they dump KT's long contract, while both Snow and Marshall's contracts expire in 2009. They also get 2 young players from the 2006 draft in Sefolosha and Simmons, who would add to their young core.

Udrih/Douby/Snow
Martin/Salmons/Jones
Artest/Garcia/Sefolosha
Hawes/Simmons/Marshall
Miller/Williams/Abdur-Rahim

Bleh, the Bulls actually add 5 million in salary for next year and save only $325,000 in 2 years.

The way Thabo has been playing recently I'd rather just bench Ben Wallace for 2 years until he's valuable at the trade deadline as an expiring, throw Duhon into Lake Michigan and give his minutes to Thabo.

I suppose the Bulls could keep Sefolosha, and the Cavs send their 1st to the Kings...

I'm in favor of nearly every trade that removes Ben Wallace, but I'm still leery of adding salary next year.

The Bulls would be much better just eating Wallace's contract if they're not going to see some sort of monetary savings as a result of a Ben Wallace deal.

That pick better be coming the Kings way otherwise the Kings easily say no.

Think the Kings give up to much, sorry but good idea. Also, Wallace for Hughes helps no one. The Bulls don't need another guard who shoots terrible percentage and the Cavs certainly don't need another big.

Anytime you include Larry Hughes in any trade scenario, it comes to a screeching halt.... No one wants that scrub

What's the incentive for the Kings here? Mr. "1.5 PER" Simmons? Thabo? Shaving a year off of Thomas' deal?

Definitely not enough for Bibby, even in his diminished state.

Actually, the Cavs do need another big...

The same can be said about Ben Wallace, then...
