    I've read tons of articles over the past several months - Chicago players/management do NOT like Butler. I can't find one of the ones I read earlier this week, but there have been at least 3 articles since the end of the season about how Butler has changed, has burned bridges, and isn't the type of player the Bulls want to build around. With Rose done Chicago wants a new leader, but they hate Butler's leadership qualities. That's why I think - IF we trade CJ for Butler - we need some sweetener from Chicago to make the gamble worth it. Maybe something like CJ/Aminu for Butler/McDermott:

    They could bring Rasheed out of retirement and have a lone bald spot. Next best thing. Even if it's technically the next best thing to the next best thing.

    Henderson is a one-on-one black hole. He is suitable for instant offense off the bench. That's it. Playing him next to Dame doesn't do either one of them any good, or the team.

    But your first post in the thread was about packaging CJ as a centerpiece in a trade.

    Blake Griffin? Boogie? We need a dominant big that can score at will.
