Sources: McHale is trying to get the team to acquire Mike Dunleavy

Here's a post from a guy on the Bulls board who they consider to be a reliable insider. Says we offered up the NYK 2nd, along with what sounds like Brewer and Smith for Dunleavy, but the Bulls don't want to trade him unless they can get a first:

 

Who do they think Dunleavy is? JJ Redick? Dude's 33 years old now. Like old teammate Battier, he's got one foot into his post-NBA career.

Stupid trade deadline posturing. I am glad I have stocks to distract me from the trade deadline this year.

 

Dunleavy...do not want. Would rather just go after Morrow.

 

Can it suffice if we say that we will never trust Fred Hoiberg's advice ever again? Sorry Melvin Ejim, Royce White ruined it for your entire school.

 

I would do give them a first if we could get a 2nd round this year + anouther second without any restriction

 

No way, i would give a first round pick for Dunleavy.

 

I wonder if Morey would be willing to trade Casspi as a part of the package for Dunleavy. A part of Chicago's plan is to amnesty Boozer and possibly trade Gibson for less $ in the summer to chase a star and maybe sign Mirotic. If so, then they need to find low-priced talent who can play. Casspi, under contract next year at the minimum (non-guaranteed) fits the bill for them.

 

Cassipi has a team option, makes him even more valuable in your instance

 

Well the Bulls are still a playoff team in the Leastern conference, so I can understand why they’re not interested in shedding a productive vet on a reasonable salary unless it’s a no-brainer. I mean last season do you think Morey would have moved Delfino for a second round pick?

The Bulls fans in that thread are completely delusional on Dunleavy’s worth though – half of them think they can get TJones for him and then got pissed when the insider chimed in with what was really on the table lol.

 

A little of topic: From Sbnation(Dallas)

For Asik

For Rondo

I don't want to overvalue our players or Rondo but ... the proposals are laughable.

 

Wright is a semi useful player. errr.... Larkin on the other hand.

 

I'm not sure how Danny Ainge is going to turn down that offer, doubt anyone in the league has better assets than those studs.

 

No way in hell is he worth a first round pick, laughable.

 

1st round pick for Dunleavy......

not sure if srs

 

Dunleavy is poor mans parsons.
Do no want

 

Casspi is a valid player for us. Still, I guess I would accept giving Casspi + 2nd round for Dunleavy.

Thanks for that source redhotrox, seems reliable.

 

Bulls board wants Terrence Jones or Parsons, lol. I think we should keep our players see how we do. Fans aside it seems that GM's also want too much for average about to retire players or players who just came off Injury's and aren't even superstars when they are 100%. We're winning I say stay put unless you can get a wing who can defend and shoot three's for Garcia+Brewer and 2nd rounders, Asik can rot on the bench if he doesn't want to play we survived this long without him.

 

Our 1st will be in the 20s, which is only marginally better than NY's 2nd. I don't see how this can be the holdup.

 

The Rockets should try and get Jimmer.
