What if

[Bullsman24]

Ok so hedo has made it clear that he wants OUT of Toronto. We need out of deng and hinrich. What if we took hedo off their hands and they took deng and hinrich off our hands. Then we sign lebron. Thoughts?

 

[BigP50]

that would be cool.

 

[Bullsman24]

Would it be appealing do you think?

 

[USCChiFan]

We get rid of 2 overpaid players for a player who's still massively overpaid. Hm...

 

[BigP50]

O yeah!

Rose, Hedo, Lebron, Taj, Joakim

 

[MRN]

I don't like Hedo, he'd kill us. Look at the way he plays.

He doesn't produce unless he has the ball in his hands pretty much all game.

If my assumptions about contract situations are correct, that would give Toronto two good players for one good player, albeit all 3 overpaid...and it would also allow the Bulls to sign two max contracts? And keep Noah and Rose? Really?

Only thing, our bench would suffer....but...Noah, Rose, LBJ, Hedo, Bosh? :clap:

 

[Bullsman24]

Well hedo would assuredly come off the bench and be our sixth man. I mean if you can do that you gotta take it no?

 

[Lefty]

So we trade Luol Deng for White Luol Deng? Pass.

So we trade Luol Deng for White Luol Deng? Pass.

Even if it gives us the ability to sign two players to Max contracts?

 

[Bullsman24]

Even to get bosh you wouldn't take it???

 

[Bullsman24]

Well ok let's say you sign lebron to a 3 yr and you trade bosh and hedo fr deng, hinrich, an taj. Then you draft James Anderson. Is that not awesome?

 

[Lefty]

LeBron's not signing a three year deal. He has the longevity and skill to get another max deal after this one runs out.

Who is to say he won't sign a 2 year deal w/ a team w/ the best shot at winning now, and bolt for the Nets when they're in Brooklyn? Odds are he'll be able to get paid even more then (as max contracts will probably rise a bit) and he'll be where he wants to be?

 

[Bullsman24]

No with the new CBA contracts will lessen

 

[Bullsman24]

But he'll have a next level max contract if it stays the same

Gotcha.
Thanks for the correction.

 

[Bullsman24]

Now that's only expectations but it's likely

 

[Lex L.]

I would do it, if it would allow us to have LeBron AND Bosh. And, looking at it another way, it would convert 2 bad contracts into 1.


Its not my ideal scenario but if Toronto put that deal on the table, Id probably do it.

Ive read that he's looking for a 5 year deal with a player option in the 3rd year.
