Trade Idea

[knoxville7]

Not sure how Phoenix feels about their season or how they will feel about it come trade deadline time. but the bulls should look into trading for Gerald green for wing help. the suns might be willing to trade him since its his contract year, and the bulls could use him as a final piece to help push for the title as a one year rental player. maybe a doug McDermott for green swap? the contract money works just barely. throw in a draft pick if necessary

At this point in time, I don't think the Bulls need to make changes. At this point as well Dougie is still considered to be part of the team for the future.

the wing position needs help. the only true 3's on the roster are Dunleavy and butler. Dunleavy is banged up and butler plays 40 min a game. just feel we could use more at the position

 

[Axl Rose]

i agree that we need another wing

not sure about McDermott for Green tho

Mirotic is starting to play more 3. He played all his minutes there yesterday.

Was it out of ability or necessity?

so you are okay with mirotic guarding the 3 position a lot??? im not. he cant guard the lebrons of the world. that's the toughest position in basketball to defend these days.

 

[Crystallas]

Bad trade.

Oh, and is it that time of the year? Ugh. Well, it is what it is.

It was out of necessity, but it seemed to work out also. Dude is a terific slasher.

With the way the Bulls are playing why tinker?

how insightful

sure offensively it works out...defensively not so much

Butler is going to be on LeBron 24/7.

He may not be lock down, but he hustles.

It doesn't matter who plays the 3, Jimmy guards the best perimeter player.

 

[knoxville7]

absolutely, but if you have mirotic in there playing the 3, who does he guard then??? the shooting guard?!?!?

Butler will guard the best wing on the opposing team 9/10 times.

Durant, Lebron, etc

yes, but everyone is missing the point here. if you play mirotic at the 3, who does he guard then??????

The 2 would be a tall order for him.

 

[knoxville7]

The 2 would be a tall order for him.

exactly my point. mirotic can play some 3 here and there sparingly, but to ask him to guard guys smaller and quicker than him is unfair to him. he is a stretch 4. that's why the green trade makes sense, help jimmy's minutes burden out a lil bit

 

[Axl Rose]

we need more of a sample size of Nikola at SF before we crown him our SF

i do think they need to look at the wing market and see if anything comes about regardless

Rockets got Corey Brewer for scraps and OKC got Waiters for scraps so maybe something like that comes up for us
