Rumor: Brooklyn Nets, LA Lakers, Sacramento Kings have called the Bulls expressing interest in Luol Deng. (Source: Carlos Douglas Jr.)

Do the Kings have 1st Round Pick this year?

I believe so and if they are calling you know they are going to give us that pick.

my trade suggestion..
Bulls get Salmons,Fredette and McLemore

Kings get Deng and Teague

I hope we get a pick with that. Thats basically McLemore and fillers for Deng.

I'd love to try and swing for the fences and go with something like this.

Cousins/Salmons/Thorton/McLemore for Deng and Noah. I think Cousins would be really good here with Thibs and Rose.

So you think the Bulls could get McLemore, who the Kings are really high on and a franchise center for a Deng rental and Noah?

The Kings will hang up the phone.

McLemore sucks anyway, the Bulls shouldn't want him

I think their pick is tied up with Cleveland. Protected top 12 or 14 I believe.

Brooklyn and LA have nothing to offer.

LA has expirings at least, but they can't trade their 2014 first round pick, since they dealt their 2015 pick to Phoenix in the Steve Nash deal.

Sacramento traded their 2014 pick to Cleveland. Sacramento would likely offer Thornton or Salmons plus a filler deal like Outlaw. None of those deals are expiring.

I still think Cleveland is the best trade partner if their goal is to make the playoffs. They have expirings and multiple draft picks.

Do Kings really have my interest. If they are calling Bulls need to pick up the phone and listen to what they have to say. I feel that we can get away with robbery against them.

I'll do, Deng and Teague for Salmons, Thornton and Thomas, Thomas would be a good backup to Rose, he's like another Nate.

[League Circles]

I'd trade Deng, Noah, Butler, and the Charlotte pick for Cousins and filler if it could work. I doubt it could, but I'd do it in a second. Cousins is one of a handful of players that I'd sell the farm for.

Mclemore is very very raw and Cousins has his issues. To get 2 allstars is a good return. Deng isn't a rental either, they can resign him, they will have his bird rights.

Cousins is 23, averaging 21 and 10, and just signed an extension. Players like that don't get traded very often

Woah you would trade 2 all stars for one potential all star. We both know if the Kings asked for a trade like that the Bulls would cuss them out like no tomorrow.

Actually you might be able to get Thornton and Thomas for just Deng.

Gar is right. Guys like Cousins don't come around often and it would definitely take an offer like that to get him, if at all.

Just forgot that they're under new management.

[Red Larrivee]

Why do you guys want Thornton? Keep in mind he's owed a cool $8.875M next season and he's currently shooting 36%/28% from the field and three.

The Bulls don't need dumb salary on the books next season.

And Deng and Noah are still in their 20's, allstars and led their team to the playoffs last year. They have change the status quo. They have new ownership. Thats a good return for Cousins. We aren't robbing them. The kings will be greatly improved with this deal.

[JohnnyKILLroy]

Greivez is getting out played by Thomas maybe they want to move him. Bad defender.

Thomas is playing very well. Nate style Sparkplug?

Thornton is on the outs. I'm sure they want to get rid of him.

Jimmer is also on his way out.

With the addition of Williams could Thompson and Patterson be included?

McLemore would be a ridiculous return for Deng. I thought that kind of ship had already sailed with Barnes.

I guess but that filler better be Ben Mac. I just think 2 all stars for one guy is too much if your not getting back equal value.

Both are 28 and turning 29 before seasons end. The new ownership loves and believes in DeMarcus so good luck getting them to agree to a deal where they get solid players for a potential star.

I rather wait for him to hit FA or something. The guy is another Oj mayo just another guy being paid starter money when they are just a bench player.

I think they'd take 2 good character allstars for a potential star. It will make them better. It will make us worse in the near future. Just because people they believe in Cousins doesn't mean they can't belive in Deng and Noah more.
