I think the Nuggets may be a more realistic option. I suspect the Bulls will get a PF in Free Agency.

David Kahn and Al Jefferson collectively beating trade value to the ground.

Whatever, David Khan is a moron. I would trade Kevin Love before Al Jefferson.

To Toronto for a $16million TPE??? Maybe thats why Toronto don't want players in exchange for Bosh.
Add a pick or something as well.

Not sure what free agent is going to go to Minnesota, with the odds already unfairly stacked against them (Minnesota isn't as terrible as some people make it out to be) why would a quality FA commit to going to a team with so much uncertainty?
Is Jefferson in or out?
Is Rubio ever coming over?
Is Darko Milicic really going to get more than 10 mpg?
Just too many questions...

This could be great for the Bulls if we land LeBron and Bosh goes to Miami...
Al is around the talent level of Amare and better than Boozer and Lee IMO...

I think the Nuggets can pull this off. Kenyon Martin for Al Jefferson and Ryan Hollins. Then Minny waives K-Mart and his 85% covered contract so he can re-sign with Denver.

Jefferson has been a certified disaster in Minny and the problem was compounded by them drafting another PF right after they traded for him. It's no surprise he wants out when the team has been so openly shopping him.
I don't expect them to get much in return when he's inevitably dealt.

Maybe the Bulls can throw Deng and some draft picks at the Wolves for Al. He is a beast at the 4 and still young.

Khahn loves SF that can't create there own shot. Deng may be his dream come true.
