Everyone here seems to believe we should be sellers, and I'm not sure what we are. It's possible we are a rare broker, not a buyer or a seller but a mover flipping pieces for better chemistry.

This is the NBA trade machine. Broker away. I'll start with the Kings. The seperation at the top is so steep that it appears nearly everyone is a seller, if we think the Bulls are sellers, and the 300,000,000 Cavs are blowing up operations, my god everyone but the 76ers is off course then and needs to sell to catch the Spurs and Dubs.

First trade I tried, was Mirotic and Gibson for Gay which works. It says it improves the Kings by two wins, and the Bulls lose 4. It also favors the Kings into the future.

The Kings are a weird team, whether buyers or sellers may depend on Cousins future with club. They are playing well and just want to make playoffs with spots opening in the west for first time in years. The really do need a PF.

Rose-butler-gay-Portis-gasol could probably bully and bother some teams with tenacious hands and strength.

I'm at a loss, it's clear we don't fit together and need to prune our rotation to 8-9 guys for playoffs.

We all know this team will never win a championship as constructed. They should blow the team up and rebuild through the draft.

Keep Butler, Mirotic, and Portis. Trade everyone else for draft picks and expiring contracts.

Haha, yeah the trade machine tells you what is realistic in terms of following league finance rules, it doesn't care what is GM realistic.

The new WAR balance feature is nice, but most NBA traded are finance driven on one side. Milwaukee however would have no reason to do that.

Noone is going to trade for Noah or Kirk. Noone is going to trade for Snell. Gasol should be traded for anything they can get in return. This is the thinnest team in the NBA thanks to those bozos in the front office and the suck ass owner of the team.

Noah can't be traded. He is injured.

Now that Jo has gone down, I don't see any type of trade happening.

The Bulls biggest moves will be in the off-season as they watch Gasol, Noah and Hinrich all leave.

They will add two first round picks most likely thanks to Sacramento playing well, maybe a minor trade and sign a few guys that fit Hoiberg's scheme.

Bulls are the deepest team in the league. Doesn't translate into playoff wins because they have no top 10 elite players.

1a and 1b. Spurs are better overall because their star players are clutch in the playoffs. Bulls consistently fold under pressure.

try again...its not 1a and 1b. spurs depth is so much better and more consistent than the bulls. not to mention their star players are better on top of it all

Like you said, with us likely having two first round picks, what do you think is the higher need: point guard or center?
