    So if we don't take a PG in the draft, do we go after one in FA or we put Ingram/Clark there?

    We don't trade Russell unless our mind had been made up on Ball (or to a lesser extent Fox).

    or maybe they half-heartedly pursued these guys. i mean, they let kobe tell howard he could rebound and catch lobs. if they really wanted to keep him, they might have played that differently...

    Nice. Nvm signing anyone.. bring on expiring contracts, we need picks for next year. Great draft. Love Ball whose a 1/2,Hart whose a 2/3, Kuzma whose a 3/4 and Bryant whose a 4/5. We got 1-5 covered in one draft ;)

    This is actually a real good idea. We don't need Black now. We have Lopez, Zu, and that Bryant guy. We also have a bunch of guys who can play the 4 which means in small ball lineups we have even more options at the 5. By my calculations, which could very well be a little off as I don't know the exact amount the 27th and 30th picks make, we should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 83 million. The cap is set at 99 million. Ariza and Beverly fit into that cap space nicely. We send out Brewer to a team who needs to get to the cap floor.

    Ball/Beverly
    Clarkson/Hart
    Ingram/Ariza/Deng
    Randle/Nance/Kuzma
    Lopez/Zu

    That team sucks, but at least with Lopez, Ariza and Beverly we have players who have been through some battles and can provide some form of veteran leadership.

    Here's an outlandish idea, we trade for Wade.

    I'd would but I wouldn't give them anything but their 2nd picks back for the Jose trade but they'd have to take back Clarkson, Brewer.

    I was suppose to type more but accidentally hit post.
    Deng and picks, JC if they want but they just got Lavine.

    Maybe not right now but what if by the trade deadline, Wade becomes disgruntled. Dude picked up his player option and a day later the Bulls decide to blow things up.

    Wade picked up his opt for the $, I dont think he gives a flying F anymore about notion of winning with the Bulls lol. He should've taken his own advise a few years back when he said he didn't trust Chi mgmt the yr they formed their super team in Mia. Wade wanted his money and he'll want out, just a matter of suckering Chi even more so to help them. Yea I forgot bout Lavine but since he did tear his ACL, he might be a while to recover to get back to form, I'm not sure what their SG depth is like but I dont think its deep

    I would absolutely trade for Wade. Without hesitation and it would make our pursuit of LeBron and George extremely interesting.

    Didn't know Lavine tore his ACL last year. Don't really follow the other teams' day to day goings on. Vaguely wondered why I wasn't seeing him when we played. What part of the season?
