DBAHO Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 19, 2008 -> 02:17 PM) Yeah, it's been 2 games. Nellie will have him playing 4 minutes in no time. Funny how Harrington's in the doghouse and they're already looking to move Maggette. All that team needs is a decent enough PG, and they could actually do something considering the glut of talented swingmen they have and Biedrins dominating in the post. I think they're going to try Ellis at PG first though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Gordon right now would have to waive some version of his Bird rights I think in order to be traded, so I think he does have the first veto right now.

I like Wright as well, and anything that gets the Bulls two live, big bodies with skill like Harrington and Wright is a good idea at this point. I'd do whatever I could to work it out if I were the Bulls and this poissibility exists. Edited November 19, 2008 by whitesoxfan101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that deal a lot though. Actually, reports said the Bulls wound up offering that exact deal and were turned down. (Noah/Hinrich for Wright/Harrington). Now, with both Hinrich ACTUALLY injured, and Harrington injured, it seems it wasn't meant to be anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomSlowik Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 (edited) QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Nov 19, 2008 -> 11:16 AM) How is Memphis an offender? Because they traded away Pau? They made it clear what they wanted for him and got that from LA. Marc Gasol has been impressive. They suckered(though it probably didn't take much) Minnesota into taking Mike Miller and Kevin Love for OJ Mayo who is a stud in the making, they have a pretty good player in Rudy Gay, and a developing player in Darrell Arthur. I don't see how you say Memphis is trying to tank. I'm referring to the last two seasons more than this one. They basically GAVE away Gasol, their asking price for him dropped considerably at the last second because they were cheap. It turned into a flat out salary dump when they were previously asking for legit talent. A couple of months before the trade they were still asking for Deng AND Gordon as well as either Tyrus or a pick. They got lucky that the other Gasol has turned out decent, though he's still not a world-beater. They're also sitting far below the cap with no real intention of spending money at the moment. Their team is still one of the worst in the league, the only reason they have 4 wins is a soft early schedule. I don't exactly see what's THAT impressive about Mayo so far either, he's averaging 20 points but on 17 shots and with a weak assist/TO ratio. He's not exactly having a big impact on their record either, their starting lineup is still getting murdered despite 3 above average starters. He's a big asset when he's hot but a non-factor when he's not, much like Ben Gordon (though Ben also turns it over less and shoots more FT's). Hell, Mike Miller put up 16 a game for them last year on 5 fewer shots per game, how much progress is that? He's also already far more advanced skill-wise than most of his peers and doesn't have mind-blowing quickness, so how much better he can get is debateable. He's going to shoot them out of about as many games as he wins them. I'm not saying he sucks mind you, he's clearly a solid scorer, but he's not going to carry that franchise anywhere.

I think that was me actually. The schedule helped a bit, especially with Calderon not playing, but they still have to win those and Philly and Dallas aren't exactly bottom feeders. Pietrus and Nelson put up some nice games in that stretch. I still say their jumper-happy ways will come back to bite them against quality teams though.
