Sadly give up Bo and Big "Bust" Jake. Cle - does it to get ride for Stewart and his salary, Diop who was a bust and Miles to make room for James. Also they get good young guys who will help out in the east and a big center in Jake who should do better in the smaller east then the west. Also improves their front court lineup. Cle also gets the picks back from the Suns and sends them to Chi for good young players. Chi - does it to to get ride of Crawford to make room for Jay, and Robinson and Fizer who whined about minuets. In return they get veterans who will be off the cap in a couple of years and 2 first round draft picks and 2 2nd round picks. Bo will help the bulls off the bench and his leadership and work ethics will really help the Baby Bulls, while Stewart when healthy is a decent play but also can help with the emergence of the Curry and Chandler. It seems like a little much from Cle and Phx with all the draft picks but the Bulls are giving up a lot of young talent and it seems some what fair this way. It works cap wise too for all the teams. What do you think?
I don't think the Bulls will get rid of Crawford. He played more like a shooting guard towards the end of the season. Robinson is useless, and there's <u>always</u> been talk of trading Fizer.
