i still think the best deal would be in a gasol deal. something that revolves around gasol+cardinal (forget trying to get navarro as simple fill-in) for nocioni+thomas+pick(s)+filler.
but its not an easy deal to pull off. nocioni is BYC, and gasol+cardinal is about 20 mil in salary. getting a third team in on things is probably necessary. but even then, memphis is probably going to feel like they are getting the shorter end of the stick. and i wouldnt blame them. i just think nocioni (a player they apparently targeted this summer) and solid former lottery pick like thomas (check out thomas' box scores when he gets 23+ minutes a night). kid can play given some PT. i honestly dont know why chicago is looking to move him so bad...

I really don't see Memphis doing that. They will at least want Deng, as well they should.

and thats the issue. no team is going to offer a player at the value of deng. and that seems to be what memphis wants. really, what team would offer that kind of value (and im not even a big deng fan)?

Orlando has expirings and we would gladly work a deal for Nocioni. Give me your best shot. If the Bulls are wanting to rid themselves of that trouble maker Noah we might be persuaded.

Noah isn't a troublemaker, but you must have missed the last couple times Cliff Levingston has made his Magic proposal:
Bulls trade:
- Andres Nocioni
- Chris Duhon
Magic trade:
- J.J. Redick
- Keyon Dooling
- Pat Garrity
- Rights to Fran Vazquez
Gives the Magic two serviceable players in Duhon and Nocioni while giving the Bulls some expiring deals, more offense in the back court via Dooling and Redick and Vazquez's right to hold onto for a rainy day.

No he didn't; Nocioni is wildly overrated, but thanks for the flowers. Make sure they smell pretty, otherwise Cliff Levingston will rescind the deal.
