Trade Thread

If we're keeping Butler, what about 16 for Bledsoe?

They will probably need more. 16+Valentine+Rondo, maybe. I'd still do it

[Red8911]

Anyone have interest in Danny Green?

hes the type of guy we need, a legit 3pt threat who can play D. Bring Wade off the bench

True he would be a good fit with Rondo/Jimmy starting. Problem is what do you trade for green? Can't give up too much and I'm sure Spurs won't just give him away for nothing.

The knee injuries are real and kind of scary.

But if it was just for the #16, that would be pretty great. They can even have Payne/Grant as a throw in.

[GimmeDat]

Josh Jackson plus Devon booker or plus another established player.

I don't think he'll get that.

Then he won't trade him.

Logic would suggest that, but it's clear Jackson's not working with much logic. I think you'll see KP moved for a fair bit less than that.

I would give up #16 for Bledsoe. Much better scorer than Beverly.
Could easily be our starting PG for the next 3-4 years.

He's kinda IT-ish, maybe a move to a team that commits to him - He hits that next level?
He's right @ that age IT did. Kid can score and get to the FT stripe @ 7 times a night.

They are moving him to clear that space for Devin Booker and whatever PG they get at #4.

He'd have to be the starter tho and how would that fit with Rondo?

Could we do something like #16 and some body + next years #1 and they give us Bledsoe and Derrick Jones?
I'd be happy at the end of today if we added Bledsoe and Jones to this roster

I see NYK and MIN as good trade partners for KP.

Noah and Porzingis for Rubio, #7, 18-pick-swap, 19-1st.

It'd be beneficial to dump Noah's awful contract, but Phil could also get somebody good at #7 (Smith). Assuming he likes the pick, it's a trade to consider on the clock.

I doubt it. I don't think that Phil is a stupid as most people think he is. He hasn't done a great job but he hasn't been terrible. If he was anywhere but New York he wouldn't be so criticized. He's drafted very well, possible done that better than anyone else since becoming a GM. He's also done well in FA minus Noah.

Obviously he's not perfect but he's kinda hand cuffed with melo on the team. He did a horrible thing by diminishing his trade value. Something that's over blown is the criticism of forcing the triangle. Every Knicks game I watched the triangle ran very smoothly once melo was out.

He hasn't been that bad of a GM and him trading Porzingis for anything less that an established prospect plus a high pick would be absolutely shocking to me but I am 99.9% sure Porzingis won't be traded for the same thing Cousins was.

Minn doesn't have a 2018 pick, they traded it to Atlanta for Adrian Payne(before Thibs got there). What a horrible trade.

I put this in another thread, but would you be willing to package #16 with Payne/Grant and Lopez for Lamarcus Aldridge? Lamarcus can opt out after next year though.

That seems like a bad trade. Knicks are only selling really high on KP, so probably won't be moved but will 'learn his zen lesson'.

So in one year they have Grant, Lopez, and the #16 and Bulls have nothing.

Does that even work salary wise?

Doesn't have to be even salary wise as long as Bulls have cap space. Now that I think about it, I probably wouldn't want LA because he can leave in a year and he adds middling value.

LaMarcus wanted to come to Chicago when he was in Portland, the famous Chicago won't trade Noah for Aldridge move. It's quite possible Aldridge may be good with being overpaid to stay in Chicago.

[patryk7754]

Was thinking, and I believe that it is well worth the risk for the Wolves to go and get Paul George. They're never gonna sign any free agents and they could be competitive enough to convince PG to stay.

Pacers get: 7th and Cole Aldrich
Wolves get: Paul George and 18th pick

Wolves draft OG Anunoby

Sign Serge Ibaka

Rubio/Dunn
George/Lavine
Wiggins/Anunoby
Ibaka/Hill/Bjelica
Anthony-Towns/Dieng/Payne

That's a team that can go toe-to-toe with the Warriors

[Just_Bullz]

I think there will be more to just the butler trade, we still have way too many PGs in rondo, dunn, MCW, grant and payne.

Something gotta give and i think 2 will have to make way to get some cover for the SF spot. Can't just depend on Zipser.

[Axxo]

This point of view was probably heard, but would rather have had the #3 for the cost JBs services. I do think this situation was no longer viable for JB. He was being wasted here. At least now rhe clock can be started on Gar and Fred. Bulls got a player that can play in Hoibergs "system".

We need to target the worst value contracts section. lmao at Kris Dunn making the list while on a rookie contract.

What could we get for Chandler Parsons?

[Dan Z]

I bet Wade will complain this season and talk to the FO to ask for a trade. Do you have any trade ideas?
