    Boozer may not be "good" at defense but look at what the Bulls have done with him over the last few years. You pair him with a defensive center and you can do worse than a guy that boxes out hard and grabs 8 boards a night.

    Because that would suck. I don't want Gasol for more than a year here. He's too old.

    He's a huge expiring that could net us Love in February.

    Mirotic is the most intriguing piece right now. He would put us in the driver's seat for Love. I can't see Chicago giving him up but if I'm Morey I require him to take on Boozer's contract.

    boozer is a small band-aid on a gushing wound. if we can get taj + dunleavy or jimmy butler, that would be much better. but it's most likely boozer...

    Boozer can hit the midrange consistently though. He'd be an upgrade for sure. T. Jones off the bench as a super sub/energy guy. D.Mo odd man out or backup center.

    mike james, amundson, and ronnie brewer all have fully unguaranteed contracts = 4.069M total

    bulls also have these 2015 1st picks: "Own or swap for CLE 15-30; SAC 11-30 (via CLE)"

    yeah, they didn't include houston.

    let him be traded to houston.

    we better get a 1st rd pick if we're only taking on boozer.

    Dunleavy and Boozer are both veterans that can hit open J's. Would fit in nicely here.

    Dunleavy has been injured most seasons and is terrible on D.
