Oh man, could you imagine if we traded those guys to get Melo? Bulls would get some scrub #7 draft pick, instead of a proper tank.

The Bulls-OKC trade was inexcusable but im not bothered by not using that package to get Melo. Butler/Melo/Wade isn't even getting you out of the east, moreless putting you over Golden State.

its not as comical as wade and lebron not thinking Rose was enough to be the third of the big three to sign here, but are now stuck with him.

You can pretty much say the bulls helped Wade go to the cavs too since they are paying 15 million of his salary.

I remember some Melo discussions on here back before he re-signed with NY. I think he would have been better then for the Bulls. But then you have to think about Butler's development and how it would have affected that. Hard to say.

I don't think getting Melo now would be worth it, you're really just having a guy in his decline at 33 eat up way more than he's worth, just for you to probably lose in the ECF or 2nd round. Then you're probably rebuilding again anyway.
