Do everything you can to get into the top 5 of the draft this year.

[JP Hochbaum]

This is of course assuming that GarPax have the guts to do this.

I think it can be done. If we trade Deng for a 1st round pick, hopefully lower than 20. Amnesty Boozer. Then when the lottery balls fall we call all the teams in the top 5 and ask them what they want from us for that pick. We should literally be willing to give them anything, even Noah. With two picks, Charlottes pick, Mirotic rights, and possibly Noah we could get a deal done, IMO.

So then after the draft we have the two stars we need to build an instant contender, Rose and whoever the pick is.

Then when it comes to free agency we have the money to sign the role players to make this team an instant contender.

Possible guys to fill in for SG, SF or PF (all FA's next year):

1st tier of guys we go after hard

Rudy ***
Gordon Hayward
Greg Monroe
Evan Turner
Derrick Favors
OJ Mayo
Monta Ellis

If the above guys don't come to Chicago

Danny Granger
Igoudala


If Noah is traded:


Marcin Gortat

So starting 5 next year could be:

Rose
Mayo
top 5 pick here
Monroe or Favors
Noah or Gorcat

Where are you getting your info? Ellis, Iguodala, Favors and Mayo won't be free agents.

Monroe will be a RFA and Detroit will probably match any offer he gets.

Granger is washed up. Hayward is no better than Deng... and *** is... ehh. If we land him, fine... but he won't put us over the top or anything.

Granger is like Rose; injury prone.

And yeah, none of those guys are realistic.

 

[SilenceS]

I dont see a team coming out the top 5. This draft has all the makings to be like the 2003 draft. Wiggins and Parker are unreal and both were called the next Lebron James. After that, you got some seriously good players coming out that teams will covet!

 

[Raskolnikov]

top 2 is what matters most. Wiggins and Parker elite.

Smart is Derrick Rose with better defense and a little bigger, not as good of a natural shooter even if he works as hard.

 

[WindyCity]

Your best bet to get into the top 5 is to trade Noah for a young player and pick to a fringe lottery team that may get hot.

Noah, Bobcats, 1st might get it done.

You are right I was using an old list.

But the other guys aren't supposed to be superstars for us, assuming we get a top 5 pick to be our superstar.

I heard an interesting rumor that Evan Turner may not be staying in Philly and we could possibly trade Deng for him now.

I wouldn't mind if the Bulls brought in ET, but Rose definitely would

 

[ChiSoxCity]

The Bulls don't have the trade pieces or record to land a top 10 pick, let alone a 5. It's just not going to happen. PAXGAR has this roster fucked every which way from Sunday.
