Maybe they could Amnesty Snoozer to further shed salaries :troll:

But it won't happen cuz Jerry Reinsdorf will cry poverty since the Bulls are only making 50mil+ in profits every year.

amnestying boozer isnt enough

noah/rose/gibson is a 38 million dollar trio. u cant spend that much on those 3 players

i hope they make moves. thibs will win a ring if they give him enough talent to compete

in 2014 rose, noah, taj, butler, marquis teague combine to make 42 mil

add in this pick if the trade happens youre at 45 mil for 6 players
add in mirotic and youre at 47 mil for 7 players

thats 11-12 mil left to fill 5 roster spots....not enough money to make significant moves

certainly not enough money for a max player. theyre gonna have to drop taj to make moves
if it comes down to Taj or no Taj for max capspace.. i think we know what will go down.

:deadmanny: Only the Wizards would do this. :lolbron:

Deng was about to be traded for Mello a little over a year ago, but now he's not worth being traded for a person who hasn't played a minute in the summer league, and Omeka Okafor who is decent... It's just easy to sleep on a guy like Okafor but I understand why he getting 14mil next season :manny:

Deng would be awesome, but I wouldn't do it cuz the Wiz need a backup PG, a reliable back up PF and C. Third pick is too high for us, we trade for two lower first round picks or we take a chance on Oladipo being that spark off the bench ala Harden in OKC. Otto porter was streaky in college, so I wouldn't expect him to enter the nba and be much different than Chris Singleton IMO...
he's gonna do the same shid he did in 2009... trade a top 5 pick for veterans on expiring contracts :demonic:
Funny, cuz all he did was what he was told to do. Abe Pollin wanted to take a shot before he died. The gamble landed us John Wall instead of Ricky Rubio. Yet your still here talking like hindsight has taught you shyt. You have a lot of wizdumb doggy :ufdup:

Rose with a shooter like that & Jimmy at the 3 :whew:..The future would be bright in Chicago. How serious are the talks?

That's one reason why they have talked to the Kings, Mavs, Pistons, Cavs, Wizards, Magic, Blazers and Bucks.

I don't know much about the Wizards rumors but I know they want the 13 pick from Dallas.
If I hear more I will post it.

The Wizards would be too dumb if they make this trade. They just need to get a decent pick and hope they get one of the worst records next season. From there, deep playoff runs will be a realistic possibility in 3 to 4 yrs time. A Deng trade aint gonna do shyt for the franchise two seasons from now. The 2014 draft has players that are going to change the game for a lot of teams and that's where the focus should be. Right now all they need to do is accumulate great role players.

:yeshrug: they cant stay young forever

:dahell: we have Okafor and Nene as the "old guys" at 30 years old

Ariza going to be 28 and Webster assuming they re-sign him at 27 are also good veterans in the locker room.

We need a backup PG with real experience and talent.

But trading the #3 pick in any draft for a veteran who is on an expiring is :snoop:

they wouldn't do it unless Deng re-signed and when I meant young I was specifically referring to Wall and Beal.

Loul Deng>>>>>Whatever Otto Porter will become.

However,his salary wouldn't be worth it.I don't know why Ernie would do it unless he got a Playoff mandate.

Wall
Beal
Healthy Deng
????
Nene
Is a playoff team in the East

No reason to have Nene and Oak on your roster if you not trying to get to the 'offs
