Trades that shouldn't be made

by preverbal on Oct 23, 2006 12:36 PM CDT

There is an article in the Daily Herald today discussing players the Bulls should NOT trade for. Most of them have already been tossed around on this site at one time or another, but since it seems to be a slow Bulls day today, I thought I'd throw the question to the blog-a-bull community: Which players top your list of the players the Bulls should not try to acquire?

Kevin Garnett

Will the Ginobili/Nocioni era ever be over?

a lot of these are obvious

The only exceptions to the list (for me) are Maggette and Troy Murphy.

But the whole premise is lacking, it all depends what you'd have to give up. Although the Bulls have no unsightly contracts, so taking on any of these players is a risk.

That list

didn't rate intangibles, leadership, and 'winners' high enough for me. ;)

all the knicks except...

Channing Frye and David Lee. If David Lee develops a 10-15 foot jumper, which I believe he is on his way to doing, he could be a really solid Pf. The guy is pretty athletic for a white 6 foot 9 inch 250 pound Pf. And he hustles. Or maybe it jsut seems that way because he plays with the Knicks.

Trades

I wouldn't necessarily mind Maggette on the Bulls, it's just I don't know who we'd trade to get Maggette.

The rest of the list I totally agree with.

I think Garnett on the Bulls makes the Bulls the clear cut winner of the NBA championship. Assuming we'd have Garnett and Wallace at PF and Center, and then be able to keep either Luol or Noc, and Gordon and Hinrich.

We'd give up probably Thomas (which would be unfortunate in a few years-but the time to win is now), Brown (for Salary), and probably Duhon or Allen and possibly even the 1st draft pick.

I'd say keeping Deng (6th man of the year candidate) off the bench with Thabo, Khryapa and Sweetney and either Duhon or Malik Allen would be a more than adequate bench. The starting 5 would easily be the best in the league.
