    A C and PF that don't rebound? They are pretty much the same style players. No way!

    I don't believe he ever signed anything. And that agreed-upon offer was 10 days ago.

    @ajchawks: Source says #Hawks had interest in #Bulls F Kyle Korver but he's likely headed to Minnesota in trade


    What's Kahn thinking? Is he giving up on Batum now? Insurance policy on Roy?

    I do think a Center who can play the high post, who can shoot and pass, does help LMA though. But he needs to be healthy.

    Hell, I'd take Korver as a throw in for whatever super-sweet deal we get. :D

    Yeah that is what I assume as well. And I also I think Kahn has a pretty good idea what he is sending us back in a S&T so that amount will play into it. My questions is if they did relent and give us DW, would they want us to take JJ Barea to seal the deal? I would assume they want to get rid of his contract. I would take him to seal the deal.

    Korver, Johnson and both picks would be a solid return. Johnson will always suck, being from Syracuse, but there are GM's out there, like Kahn, that will think they are the team to get his full potential out of him

    Johnson is nothing more than bench fodder.

    Agreed, but some GM or coach, somewhere else might think they are the ones to help him

    and as far as taking some salary on goes, he is probably the best kind to take a flier on,seeing as how he can have his options turned down at any time
