Denver is looking for some shooting, and Rip can move well w/o the ball and probably fit into their running game. Denver's has a lot of bigs so here is a way to dump Rip and add get bigger.

Bulls get:

Timofey Mozgov - A 7'1" b/u C that is a good defensive pressence. He is a luxury for Denver at this point.
Quincy Miller - A throw in to make the salary work. He's a 6'9" SF with a 7'2" wingspan with a great upside.

Denver gets:

Rip Hamilton - Could be attractive cuz he adds veteran shooting, playoff experience, and an expiring contract.
Bulls #2 pick next year - a throw in to get the deal done cuz Denver had to throw in Quincy.

You can find the 'ESPN approved' trade HERE.

Don't know if Denver would want to drag Rips decomposing corpes around, but you're trade makes sense for the Bulls.
We do need a backup big.

:lmao:He does get posterized a lot. But a lot is cuz he's not afraid to go up and bump. That's what I like about him. He'd actually bring some toughness to a much needed position.

This was a legit trade rumor at some point. Denver did not want. They are good at SG.

Really, everything I've read is Denver is looking for someone who can shoot and spread the floor. I think they were pursuing Reddick. I realize Rip is Rip, but I also read a quote where Karl said having him was a luxury in case of injury, and I read Denver was not expected to retain him next year.

As far as I'm concerned we'd come out ahead it we traded Rip for a can of Dinty Moore Stew.
