I thought about Ben Wallace but
I cant see any contracts or combos
there of that make much sense in any
type of deal that either team would do.. .
Like others, I have a feeling the Bulls and
the Blazers are probably not talking to each
other, more likely that theyre just both active.
Bulls and Blazers in serious trade talks?

Memphis are said to be looking to unload Cardinal along with Gasol.
For those who think TT cant play SF alongside LMA and Oden, consider that LMA should develop a 3-point range, and TT is very quick and mobile so he could cut into the rim while Oden is double teamed and the rest of our lineup would spread the defense.
But I think Outlaw could do the same, plus shoot 3's...my preffered Bull would be Hnirich, willing to trade Raef, Sergio and our coming pick for him.

He could possibly sense that guys like Frye and Jack are overvalued right now on the market, and once we get Oden back and Rudy over they'll lose playing time and their trade value will fall.
Might just be a good time to sell high on some of our bench guys.
Exactly what I've been thinking, though I admit that I'm not as big a fan of some of your bench players as I don't get to watch the Blazers that much.
I totally forgot that you guys have James Jones, and I still thought you guys were a bit overloaded at the PG, SG, and SF positions. Next year you guys will have 8-10 (depending on Miles and who u select with the draft pick) fighting for minutes at three positions. There's no way everyone's value will rise, and there's a good chance some will grow a bit unhappy.
I'd be too scared to tamper with the chemistry right now if I was GM, but right now probably is the best time for the Blazers to complete a 2-3 for one trade.
