If this is true, the Bulls better jump on it. I'd do it even if it took picks plus Taj Gibson.

obviously talent wise dragic is worth it. I just question how he fits into the current bulls roster

He's better than Kirk so...just give him Hinrich's spot in the rotation. :smug:

true...the other issue is he makes 7.5 mil, so you would be parting with Taj to make that trade more than likely

Forces Mirotic into more minutes. Not necessarily a bad thing but it does kill our interior d. Win some, lose some. I don't see the Bulls even trying for it though so...

That would be pretty good return for Taj imo.

I think we would have to get a 3rd team involved honestly. doubt suns want Taj when they have the morris twins and plumlee already

Taj is better than all of those guys, for one. Markieff is definitely better than Marcus. And Suns have been looking for deals for Plumlee, too. Bulls could potentially ship out Taj and picks for Dragic and a guy like Tolliver. Do it.

bulls would have no backup bigs that can play any defense then

Dragic can play some defense

what position does he play with the bulls?? rose plays point so if you play dragic at the 2 then no hes not a good defender. teams will post him up all day long with their 2 guards and dominate him there

Well that's what he's doing in Phoenix half the time anyway so :shrug:

true that....but it makes it a lot easier for opposing teams 2 guards by putting a "6'3" more like 6'1 guard in dragic on him.

The alternative is that you use Dragic as your 6th man (Jason Terry type perhaps?) and then you don't have quite as much of an issue. Though honestly, if the Cavs post JR Smith up every single play as their means of beating us, so be it.
