    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Over in Chicago they have four point guards, any of which could be big contributors for the Lakers. Ben Gordon is the most ideal, but it?s unlikely they?d trade Ben and his star potential for a deal centered around Mihm. Former Blue Devil Chris Duhon however, may be someone the Lakers can pry away from the Bulls. A deal centered around Mihm, who Chicago had interest in when the Lakers were trying to acquire Curry, may entice the small Bulls enough to let Duhon go.

    Man I don?t know how I would feel about this trade going down. I love Chris Duhon, the man does everything asked of him, and never complains. He can start for you, and run a mistake free offense, or he can come off the bench and give you a spark. He has improved his jump shot over the last couple of seasons, which was the biggest knock on his game when he entered the NBA. He is always working to get better, and has shown steady improvement since coming into the league.

    On the other hand Chris Mihm has played pretty well during his time in Los Angeles. He would give us a guy who can score down low, but at the same time not in large portions. He is not necessarily as tough as Duhon is either, he doesn?t play through injuries as well. We could keep Duhon and sign Joel Pryzbella in the off season, if a veteran big man is what where looking for. I wouldn't do it. How about you?

    i wouldnt do it. i think we should try and get Nene in free agency. ben is a shooting guard and needs to stick to that not point guard so we really only have 2 point guards. im telling u its a bad trade especially if someone trades you big for small.

    next years roster im telling u.

    Starters

    Kirk Hinrich 6'3
    Corey Maggette 6'6
    Luol Deng 6'9
    Tyson Chandler 7'1
    Nene 6'11

    Bench

    Ben Gordon 6'3
    Tyrus Thomas 6'11
    Andres Nocioni 6'7
    Chris Duhon 6'1
    Antonio Davis 6'9
    Darius Songaila 6'8
    Malik Allen 6'10

    if possible get another big vet i like PJ Brown 6'11 but its not likely.

    Is it predicted for Mihm? (Didn't feel like reading the whole thing.)

    And to the roster prediction... Al Harrington seems like a guy that would hate to come of the bench, so not sure how that would work. But, I said seems so don't know. BKS do you think he would?

    Man, I'd love that deal for my Lakers but being a Bulls fan as well I couldnt approve of that, the 3-gaurd rotation works. Pargo is a solid backup PG and he did his thing in Chicago a few years back but keeping Duhon would bring the intensity, heart and defense that the bulls really need.

    Yep

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">And to the roster prediction... Al Harrington seems like a guy that would hate to come of the bench, so not sure how that would work. But, I said seems so don't know. BKS do you think he would?</div>The reason Harrington was traded from Indiana to Atlanta was his desire to start, and refusal to come off the bench. Harrington use to be the type of guy who would not accept a bench role, but years of losing with the Hawks have made Harrington humble. He has mentioned a couple of times, when the Bulls/Hawks played, that he would love to play for Chicago, and that he is a Chicago type player. So I think he would accept a bench role to be part of a winning team.

    I don't get this post. Are you talking about Duhon? And who/what is it directed to?

    I'm guessing he's talking about Duhon, when the Bulls signed him during the off-season, not an extension though. But don't get the "so yeah" part.

    hopefully they keep Duhon. Not only do I like him playing for my favorite team, but he is a good player and can contribute a lot off the bench.

    I like this deal for the Lakers because Duhon would do well int he triangle offense. Good passer and shooter.

    I hope this doesnt go through. I love Du and see him as a key to the Bulls future even if off the bench.
