Cmon Dude! Do you watch basketball? The Bulls are not trading Deng for nobody! U cant be serious…Salmons and Jerome James and maybe Aaron Gray for T-Mac is the reality. Not Brad Miller. Not Kirk Hinrich. C’mon guys, get it together. That will be the trade and It’s the only one that works. Houston gets a young center and some defense from Salmons and an expiring contract in James. Good trade for both teams. See, the Bulls have to trade Salmons if they want to play in the free agent game coming up. So getting T-Mac’s contract is really why we trade for him. Mark my words!!

Here’s the perfect trade opportunity for the Bulls – Luol Deng and Brad Miller for T-Mac. Houston doesn’t want/need McGrady anymore, and the 2009-10 salaries match up. (McGrady $22.9 million vs. Deng 10.4 million + Miller 12.3 million) Even if McGrady never plays a game for the Bulls, it’s a win-win deal for both teams.

The Bulls would have the remaining 4-1/2 years of Deng’s huge contract off the books and McGrady’s deal would be done after this season, leaving tons of $$$ available for the Bulls in the offseason for D-Wade, Chris Bosh, etc….. The bulls could even have the cap space to sign Wade and Bosh together, or Joe Johnson and Bosh if they can’t get D-Wade. Luol is having a decent year, but this is his 6th season already, and he’s never going to be any better than he is right now, which is not worth the remaining 4-1/2 years left on his contract at $11 – $12 million per season.

I believe that even with Deng’s high contract, Houston would jump all over this deal. They’re (surprisingly) having a great season so far without McGrady, and Deng could provide them with another offensive threat alongside Ariza, Brooks, and Scola. Additionally, Brad Miller could help them in a backup roll for Scola, as well as be a good veteran leader for the playoffs.

imagine this… The knicks starting lineup next year could be: Iverson, Mcgrady,Lebron, Lee, Bosh……sounds good doesn’t it? They can get Lebron with a max deal, they can get Bosh, sign Iverson and Mcgrady for cheap, retain David Lee, and have Danilo, Wilson Chandler coming off the bench. Sounds like a great team. With that run and gun system D’antoni has, there will be more than enough touches for everyone. We all know Iverson is a great passer, he just doesn’t pass because he doesn’t trust his teammates. Everyone that has seen the All-Star games, know that Iverson is a willing passer. Iverson running the break with Mcgrady and Lebron on the wings, and Bosh and Lee running, sounds like championship. Too bad i am not a GM.

U guys are saying its uneven like everyone doesnt know hat they dont want him… whatever they get, its sumthin more than they would have… Brad Miller is just what they need, a big man and still gets to keep the expiring contract.

for the bulls it gives u a scorer as long as he is HEALTHY.. keyword

@Itsakademiks: I’d always take Kidd over Nash better defender and my favorite player. But nothing beats 2 MVP’s back to back.
