Chad Ford: "Don't be surprised to see the Bulls move up in the draft. They really like Klay Thompson."

Thoughts??

We will see what happens...I also read on twitter that Bulls will make an effort to get Howard...the question will be, can Bulls beat the Heat over the summer? We will see...

Just found his profile on Nbadraft.net.

Whos twitter did you read off of? I heard the same thing from Mike Wilbon saying that from credible sources that the Bulls will go after Howard.

Hopefully Lovie Smith doesn't go to work for the Bulls scouting department.

Wow...I can say the tweet linked a CBS sports article...but the article also referred to the Wilbon quote. i also read that Jerry West will definitely be moving one of the guards in Golden State. A lot of stuff should be happening, hate the doggone lockout...

I follow over 900 people, that is why the source is vague...just so its known...

So im sure you heard of the rumors saying the Bulls are interested in Monta Ellis and it could be a Deng for Ellis trade. That would not be a good one if that were the case.

The backcourt would be scary...offensively...but I think Deng is too important. Bulls would probably offer other parts...

 

[nwfisch]

Bulls ideally would offer Korver/Brewer. I don't think Golden State in their right mind would take that deal.

 

[Adog06]

Dont think theyd take Boozer, If they do move up in the draft they could grab Thompson and trade him. Im curious what else they would take.

 

[clonetrooper264]

Thompson seems like a legit offensive threat. Has good size too, but lack of athleticism might hurt against the Heat. Still, not a bad pick.

 

[Adog06]

Now that i think about it, Rose and Ellis, like Hou said, would be scary and probably the fastest transition basketball in the NBA. I mean who could stop those two while they are both in full sprint?

Lebron and Wade.

Lebron and Wade.

Doubt that. Lebron could but Wade legs aint what they used to be. Like i said those two on the fast break would be nasty.

It would be nasty against 29/30 teams in the league. But it's all about beating Miami so if we get Monta, he better be able to play some defense or score so much that he makes up for it.

Monta would be bad a I think he could be a good system defender he has a ton of athleticism he would be a guard I would go into our big man depth for honestly

I think that is a huge misconception about him and it was like that when he was coming out of High School which is why he wasn't highly recruited, but Thompson does have pretty good athleticism:

of course he is not a freakish athlete or anything like that but he does have pretty good athleticism

I was referring more defensively. I don't think he has the athleticism to stay with Wade (not that that's an easy task) and might get caught up behind screens and stuff like that. Offensively, I think he'll be fine.

yeah well that is true, not really sure about his Lateral Quickness and how well he can defend, he does give a pretty good effort...but then again Korver gives EFFORT ON DEFENSE and he still can't stop anybody lol

 

[tbo41fan]

Ive seen Thompson play live...

he is good with and off the ball, a lights out shooter, but a terrible defender

he would definitely be aq decent option at the 2 spot, and im sure Thibs will get his defense better
