Nets Trade: Devin Harris Pick#10, 21 Stromile Swift KVH Nets Receive: #1 Pick Larry Hughes Clippers Trade: Elton Brand Clippers Receive: Devin Harris Pick #10, 21 KVH Stromile Swift Bulls Trade: #1 Pick Larry Hughes Bulls Receive: Elton Brand Seemed fairly reasonable to me, just a random thought that occurred to me while reading draft stuff on the internet.
Larry Hughes :S It does seem possible, but not plausible. Will the Bulls risk the pick on Brand? A Hinrich, Gordon, Deng, Brand, Chandler (ohshit) lineup sounds nice. (You'd obviously change Brand to Gooden and Chandler to Brand).
This is a ridiculous trade proposal. Harris, Brand, and both of the picks would have to be coming to the Bulls, and even that might not be enough.

Brand fits your needs more than Nowitzki. I could see the 21 going to the Bulls, but nothing more. You get brand, and you get rid of Hughes. This is near perfect for you.
Either give us Kirk Hinrich, or no deal! Seriously tho, Kirk would be nice. Or maybe Luol Deng. Or maybe a combination of the 2, with us giving Chicago RJ? Chitown fans know they want RJ!

I feel like the added icing of this trade in dumping Hughes makes this almost impossible for the Bulls to refuse.

So the only player left to think about is Beasley. He's nice, but worth giving up Devin and both our first round draft picks? I wouldn't do this deal if I were the Nets.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ghoti @ Jun 9 2008, 07:02 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>How much better than Devin Harris do you think Derrick Rose is?</div> Honestly I think he can be wayyy better. I just see Devin Harris as being a good hell even a very good piece but not that top notch player you can build a team around. In Rose I see that or at least the potential to be that. I would take a risk like this if I have a shot at an elite player at such a vital position.
this sitll doesn't solve our big man problem... we're just giving up assets for another PG. we need a big man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we had jkidd on our team and it didn't work out... what makes u think rose can make us any better without a big man

Rose has the athleticism to put way more pressure on the defense at least from a scoring perspective than Kidd could dream of at this point in his career. I think Rose would give us a chance to thrive with e new Big Three though I would gladly trade RJ or VC to balance the roster and get a stud PF or C. With this trade we still have young pieces to offer a team if there is a elite big man available that we want to add.

So enjoy a threesome of Rose, VC and RJ...because that's it. No SG to back up Vince, and no replacement for Krstic/Diop should one leave this summer.

Sure i see a all-star in him, but there are a lotta all stars that don't win championships. Our biggest need right now is not a replacement PG, but a big man. That in my perspective is the only way we'll be contenders. I'm more than happy right now with devin harris. I'd rather not trade all our assets and harris for a unproven player right now.
