<div class="quote_poster">Quoting "raptors21":</div><div class="quote_post">that is stupid 4th and lammond is better than 7th and marshall glen is stupid.</div> glen wanted the trade, bulls declined...
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting "AzBalla17":</div><div class="quote_post">that would have been a good trade imo</div> i thought so too, i thought that the bulls got the better deal though.
this was a good trade for both teams, i wonder why the bulls turned it down? the 4th pick is a hot item and i'm sure the bulls could have got a great offer for it from memphis, portland, or miami. the bulls should do the deal and then try to package one of their young players and the #4 for gasol. the raptors would get an instant scorer and rebounder and at #7 they can draft kaman or pietrus. vince and pietrus would be their second chance of the vince and t-mac duo. pietrus is a great defender and is very athletic. and he won't need to focus much on offense because vince and marshall can carry the load.
Yeah a year ago with Utah Marshall had the best FG percentage in the league, hes a very consistent and smart shooter.
latest trade in the mix according to insider is bones barry, radman and the 12 for the 4, bradley and jerome williams this means the raps get two players ready to step in and make an immediate contribution as they try to get back near the top of the east, and the other guy they love, mike sweetney, will likely be there at 12. they also get rid of JYD's contract the sonics get the tough rebounding they need in JYD, and get the player they are in love with, bosh. they also get rid of radman while he has trade value based on potential, cos he's pretty much a poor man's rashard lewis at the moment. seattle want to do a straight up radman and 12 for bradley and 4, but the raps want to get rid of JYD's contract, which is apparently what the sonics are baulking at. makes for an interesting proposal tho that makes sense for both teams
