    Good deal for the Bulls. Personally, I wasn't big on bringing in Salmons anyways (he's a decent player, but lateral move at best), so glad to see him off the market.

    Yep. If anyone was going to disappear from the market, I'm glad it was the player I was least interested in.

    I am so glad that I don't have to think of ways to justify a trade that brought Salmons to Portland.

    The source said separate deal, so it can't be Salmons. Salmons can't be traded again in combination with other players for a few months.

    Will someone please explain to me why the Kings did this? It's not even a salary dump: Nocioni has a LONG contract.

    I'm tellin' you guys, it really can be Deng. I don't want Hinrich, but i'd gladly take him w/ Deng if we get rid of Blake and Sergio and have a Kirk/Bayless PG rotation. That would be badass.

    Hinrich | Bayless
    Roy | Rudy
    Deng | Batum
    Aldridge | ?
    Oden | Przybilla

    Assuming that Outlaw, Blake, Sergio and even Webster and Raef and our 1st somehow get involved? IDK... but a nice 9 man rotation for sure. I'd like to keep Travis.

    Easy there, big guy. It's just the internets.

    Blake is expiring isn't he? I'm just throwing out proposals. I think you are just upset I put Sergio in there. :)
