Shooting Guard Solution? (Trade for Iverson)

not subtract a guy who is willing to come off the bench and add a guard who has to start.

And we don’t need a guard who penetrates, that’s Rose’s gig.

We need a guy who can hit wide open shots.

Oh wait, we already have that in Gordon.

So basically all the Bulls need to gain from a trade is the subtraction of a guard and the addition of a Center.

This does neither.
Therefore not a good trade.

and talking size in the backcourt, size in the backcourt….why then would we add A.I. (who no longer defends at all) and A.I. too is a ball hawk who will impede Rose’s development and might teach Rose some of his new tricks….A.I. still puts up the stats offensively like he does, but his D is limited to take chances at steals…

Why too would BG rotate to be our 3rd guard…

The only nice thing about this is future cap relief, but again I’d rather see Hughes gone, otherwise we’re giving up Kirk and Noc for cap relief money and 1 year of A.I. who we won’t be able to bring back, and we’re not going anywhere with that lineup.

Let’s also think about trading Thomas, Noah, Nocioni, and Gooden for Shaq while we’re at it.

It worked on the trade machine!!!

The LAST person I would want Derrick Rose to look up to is Allen “you talkin about practice?!” Iverson.

Let’s put the trade talks to rest until we’re at least a few games into the year and we have a better picture of what we have.

There’s no reason to pair Rose up with a scorer who is past his prime. AI is also traditionally more successful as a PG and needs the ball in his hand. He’s not a great shooter, and unless you want to emulate Denver and just run isos all game long, not a good fit at all.

A.I’s 20 mill coming off the books next year. However the only person I would trade for on the Nuggets would be Melo and I would be willing to include Deng.
