    Which is why I'm guessing the deal has the Rockets taking back Boozer with a draft pick or two going back to Houston.

    As cheap as the Bulls owner is as noted, I think he'd def. tell the front office to trade a late 1st rounder (maybe valued at 3 to 5 million) over wasting 16 million (even though he'd probably get picked up for MLE type money and they would probably only pay 8 to 10 mil).

    IMO, I think Morey is peeved about the Lin trade yesterday and is trying to get trade assets for the future in this deal to make up for that pick they basically gave away for free for no reason. I know how much Morey values 1st rounders, and he's got to be thinking that getting a pick ASAP to help him upgrade the roster on the fly is imperative.

    NO. WE ARE NOT OUT.

    All we have to do is agree to the trade in principle. Then we pull the trigger on the Asik deal with NOP, which opens up the necessary room to absorb Boozer in a 3 way trade.

    It's not that complicated.

    At least a rotation player, if not, why bother?

    We've had plenty of potentially good news. Would be nice for some actual good news for once this offseason.
