    This would allow Bulls to have a lower starting salary with higher increase while allowing Utah have a bit of flexibility in pursuing another big man.

    Re: Utah seeking Trade Exception from Bulls

    It would make sense for both sides. I'm just glad Boozer won't be pushing around Aldridge four games a year anymore.

    If Mugsy Bogues were still in the league, HE would be pushing LMA around.

    Way to give Chicago more cap room. Nicely done Utah. I hope you choke on that fry sauce covered trade exception.

    Utah just acquired a TPE, so who cares if they get an extra 500k? :p

    a TPE. Big freakin deal. To get somethng good, you have to give something good regardless of salary. With Brewer's and Harpring's TPEs, that equals about 20 mil. Do you honestly expect this team to spend 20 mil to bring in some top notch talent? I highly doubt it.

    I don't know if you've looked outside in awhile, but we're in a recession bud. For some teams, it's kind of a big freakin' deal when you take $13M or $6.5M off their hands. But Utah are in position to make a move considering they have a Memphis 1st for 2012 along with all their own picks. There is still that chance Utah doesn't do anything either.
