Ziiing
I wish.
That's way too much to give up for those guys and I'm a fan of both Chandler and Faried
I'd offer Rondo, Lopez and McDermott a future 1st and next years 2nd round pick for Chandler, Nelson and Faried
In the current NBA I'm fine with someone like Taj playing C and having Felicio back him up
Gibson/Felicio
Faried/Mirotic/Portis
Butler/Chandler/Zipser
Wade/Valentine
MCW/Nelson/Grant/Canaan
The Bulls would still need to add some 3 point shooting through another trade maybe Portis for Muscala as well look into guys that might be available like Nick Young or James Johnson, to only lose Doug in that regard and Chandler is a decent 3 point shooter while playing better defense would give the balls a faster team albeit with some of the same problems
Sorry, but you are WAY off.
Living the first half of my life in Chicago and most of the rest here in Denver, I follow, like and know both teams.
Denver would have zero interest in Rondo or Lopez, period. If they wanted McD, they would have kept him rather than making the good trade they did with the Bulls.
For the Bulls, it is even sillier. You might be fine with Taj as your starting center but nobody else, FO, players or fans would be. Even if you go with that fantasy, you'd now have the same problem that is going on here, namely that Faried wants to be a minimum 30 MPG starter and, as much as I like him, he sucks on man-to-man D against any talented PF 6'9" or more and he has not developed any range beyond 12-14 feet on his J. You'd also have the same problem with Nelson who was very unhappy when the boy wonder named Mudiay was just handed the starting PG job last year at 20, with no college or pro experience.
Finally, with Jimmy at 35+ MPG at SF, WTF are you going to do with Chandler?
Answer: You would end up with 3 unhappy new veterans.
