No surprise, but a source confirms Bulls are "definitely interested" in 76ers F Jahlil Okafor,

If I had to choose between the two I'd take Noel.

If we could somehow unload Rose, MDJ, Taj and the #14 for either one I'd do it in a heartbeat. Trading 4 quarters for a dollar is usually a good deal in the NBA. Don't see Philly doing it though.

It also appears Philly is talking about a Noel/Teague swap: http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/242107/76ers-Hawks-Discussing-Nerlens-Noel-For-Jeff-Teague-Deal

Teague is like way better than anything we can offer but this rumour makes me optimistic because it increases my confidence they might entertain a Rose-for-pick swap if everything else doesn't work out.

 

people mentioned that possibility which i think is a realistic trade option agreed if the teague trade goes by the board i think 76ers would really consider rose for their team he may not be the same player but he can definitely help them a lot. not to mention their going to draft Simmons who has undoubtedly superstar potential then u also have joel embiid who is expected to play next season who has outstanding athleticism for a C, defense, size, the only thing is his offensive game but his offensive potential is their. he also has no doubt great potential to be a good player but thing is can he stay healthy? durability is a question. i think the 76ers have 2 more picks in the first round so u may see them move more players to make room for them depending what player's they decide to choose and also who maybe avliable for them with their last 2 picks (24, 26) in the first round. in all honesty i think the 76ers could at least be entertaining/contenders with rose (not for a championship though) next season with the talent they have. they just need to add a couple more pieces (veterans) to their young starting roster counting rose i think they could be in the hunt for a playoff spot

 

I agree.

The only team I can put together a deal for with Rose is Philly and one of their extra picks.

Even then, I'm not confident that Rose is a good vet for them. He sucks up huge amounts of usage, doesn't play very good defense, and is a pretty poor distributor. If I were Jerry Colangelo I'd try and aim lower with a Darren Collison/Trey Burke type, but maybe his hand will be forced.
