Take it for what it's worth (probably not much):

@NBARumorPress 3m Bulls are willing to deal anything except Rose and Noah to get Aldridge. Portland's entertained talks, but they still want Noah.Share via email Embed Tweet

I'd trade Jo for LMA if we had Asik instead of Taj.
A LMA - Asik big lineup would have been amazing.

Oh well. Hindsight 20/20 and all that.

Rose, Noah, Butler, Aldridge is a nice core for a title run. BTW whats the latest?

I missed the last 50 pages or so of the last thread. Were there any more recent tidbits indicating we've discussed this trade further?

Rose and Noah are the core. Keep them intact. We can always find players similar to Butler.

If Bulls are willing to give up anybody but Rose and Noah. I think a deal can be made easily.

I agree with Red. I'm not sure why they are even talking if the Bulls don't plan on giving them Noah. Unless they can find a 3rd team with a center Portland likes, it doesn't seem like this is going to happen.

Great point.

The initial problem between the Bulls and Blazers is that they aren't really good trade partners. Will very much need to involve a third or fourth team to make it work.

Still rooting for wins, but losses aren't the worst thing in the world. Perhaps the optimal strategy is hoping the Blackhawks are on at the same time.

Perhaps a deal isn't happening then. You might as well ask whether some combination of Deng/Gibson/Cha Pick/1sts/etc is enough. If not, I'm not sure it's worth it.

The Explorer wrote:I'm fine with Aldridge as long as Noah is kept, he is definitely an upgrade over Boozer. But honestly, the more pressing need in my opinion is a high scoring 2 guard or SF. Butler and Deng are nearly the same type of player, though Deng is better. Its redundant to have them in the lineup playing together. Eric Gordon & Hardaway Jr, plus resigning Robinson might be a better way to go.


Deng is better for now... Butler is still young and is showing so much potential he can easily be just as good or even better than Deng in the future. I wouldn't mind trading Deng but at the same time he is one of my favorite Bulls players and I would be sad to see him go. :(
