"Hello Otis, my man, this is Gar - General Manager of the Bulls. Other than Rose and Deng, what will it take to buy Dwight Howard a one-way plane ticket to Chicago? Noah, Gibson, Boozer, a few Luv-A-Bulls? You can borrow the Jordan statue for a few months each year and we'll send Benny the Bull down for party events and charitable functions. Anything else you need? Let me know, I'm all ears.???"

Miami will just get Howard in foul trouble every game creating the same problem we still have now..We need an SG who can score.

No way, He would command so much double teams, and a free lane for Rose. Plus they can still sign an outside shooter if their able to trade Noah/Boozer, picks, and some reserves we have. It would be difficult but the Bulls have the Pieces to pull off something big. J Rich will be available, even Ray Allen and Jamal Crawford. Im sure the Salary Cap will be tight but i think something can get done.

If you get Howard, you'll get guys (perimeter players, veteran sharp shooters) that will take less money to come play with Howard, Deng and Rose and have a chance to beat Miami. They need a BIG move. A simple upgrade at SG, unless it's a guy averaging 20+ a game, isn't going to close the gap with Miami...

Dwight Howard isn't the answer. We need a wing.

As much as I love Howard...WE DIDN'T GET KILLED IN THE PAINT! THE LACK OF FIRE POWER KILLED US!

WE NEED A STUD AT SG! Somebody that can drop 20+, someone that can shoot and penetrated AND GET TO THE THE FREE THROW LINE CONSISTENTLY!

Not sure how the Bulls will make that Happen but they have to find SOMEBODY!

SOrry but theres no one out there that can do that. Dwight Howard is the best center since Shaq. You have the best Center and the best Point guard in the NBA on the same team. that right there matches the Heat along with the pieces the Bulls have.

Just my "wish list" to address the SG/Wing deficiency, and these are in no particular order:

1. Eric Gordon
2. JR Smith
3. Ray Allen (maybe Boston will trade some pieces this summer to start rebuilding)
4. Iggy (though I don't think he makes jumpers consistently enough)
5. OJ Mayo

1. Eric Gordon (Young and knows how to play with Rose)

2. JR Smith (Knucklehead that can shoot, but can also make dumb plays and goes for the highlight reel too much)

3. Ray Allen (Would be a good fit)

4. Iggy (He's strong and athletic and could be a force for this team)

5. OJ Mayo (Will probably want too much money)

Overall solid choices

At first I thought they were in order

Good choices mine go in order

1. Iggy
2. Eric Gordon
3. OJ Mayo
4. J-Rich
5. JR Smith
6. Ray Allen

And as a bench filler if we traded away Korver, CJ Miles

I agree with your comments about JR Smith, but maybe I'm too optimistic to think that a change of scenery and a more stable locker room would do wonders for him. He can create his own shot, shoot with range, and athletically matches up with anyone in the league.

Ray Allen would've been perfect at SG if GarPax was able

All true about Smith. I just think he plays for the highlights and checks out if he isn't making a huge dunk or hot dogging.

Having said that, when he's on, he is tough to stop.
