A post on the RealGM page says that Thomas, Hughes, and Sefolosha are very tradable, especially Thomas. Who would you guys trade to get any of or all 3 here in a deal?

Leandro for Thabo and Tyrus, but I don't do it. We need shooters, and neither of them can shoot, although we improve our defense a LOT on the perimeter, but we're still left without a backup PG and lose yet another shooter.

Seriously, Tyrus is not good at all. I don't understand why people are still so enamored with his "potential". He's useless.

Barbosa is the obvious center piece of any deal with Chicago. I doubt we persue anything, we need a solid PG, that's all.

I agree, doubt anything happens. I don't mind Thabo, but we're not giving up Barbs for their sh*t. We need a solid backup PG, and that's all we're looking for right now.

I don't mind a Thabo + Gordon for Tucker + Barbosa :P (sarcasm)

I don't see CHI wanting Barbosa...they have Gordon who's a little too similar and has better handles/more talent...

Thabo/Noah/Nocioni is who'd Id want from CHI...

Those players are horrible and the only tradable guy with any value is Barbosa and has been said he wouldn't really fit with the Bulls.

They only player I'd want from those upset players is Thabo.

Thomas is trash, I never understood why he was picked so high in the draft. He's too small to bang down low, too poor of a shooter to play away from the basket. He relies too much on his athleticism to get baskets.

Gordon is another I wouldn't want, yeah he's better than Barbs in many ways, but he wants a contract almost double that of Barbs so I say no.

Hughes would be alright because he's still an above average back court defender, however with his contract there's no way we're going to have him come off the bench.

no way I would want Noah back. That guy sucks big time.

I know this is crazy, but the guy I would want back is Hinrich. Yes, he is hurt and salaries do not match. But I would like him on this team.
