    I don't believe a word Kyler writes but he's not the only one saying this.

    Lonnie Walker?

    Lonnie Walker actually worked out for us. As far as I know Smith did not.

    How many future HOF’ers can we fit in one roster though?

    I wouldn't be at all surprised to hear we're trying to package that to move up into the mid 1st given the decent amount of smoke there.

    We have 25, 39 and 47 as of now?

    Something HOT is brewing. Where's Zen? Sit back and watch your FO kick a** this summer and then find some seasoning that will help a large portion of crow go down. Or horseradish is tasty and good and strong.

    i could see trying to package up for smith or walker. but again, given who they've worked out, i'd bet more on the idea that they have someone they love that they think will be there at 39 but not at 47 (maybe real's kansas euro).

    i'm just not sure if 25/39 or even 25/39/47 moves you high enough to get smith or walker. who's selling picks in the teens?

    edit: more thoughts:

    bulls' second next year will be better than 39, so to me, this has to mean they either love someone or have another trade lined up. otherwise, you're backsliding on value. plus they added cash.

    finally: it may be no more than sweetener in a deng dump like the one real outlined earlier. though as i said earlier, this would surprise me. i would think the bulls' second rounder next year would be more enticing.

    Maybe trade up into the teens, then package that with Deng?

    That's a thought too.

    Or they're planning on using one of the kids in a dump and they want a replacement in this draft.

    There's been some serious talk of a team like Atlanta moving down.

    but they're at 19, right? not sure who will be there. hutchinson seems like a laker guy, particularly if kuz is on his way out via trade.
