    Or boozer for that matter. Sounds like Gibson.

    Getting Boozer to preserve our cap space through the trade deadline is genius. Plus he provides depth at a position of need. If the deal was for Boozer alone it would be great.

    LOL, one of the joys of FAgency has been reading the garms preposterous trade hopes, such as the rockets getting love for tjones Capella +picks assets etc and now this thread where nearly a third? Quarter? Thinks the bulls are going to trade mitotic or Gibson to the rockets in order to acquire gasol from the Lakers! Lol.

    I can't Believe I am saying this but we need Boozer. He is only 32, is a serviceable starting 4 and his deal allows us to have cap space in 2014.

    Right now he is a upgrade over Tjones regardless of how much I despise him for playing for the j*zz.

    They have a few players that I would like.

    Gibson/Butler/Mirotic/Dunleavy....

    We're not getting Mirotic, he's highly coveted. Bulls fans reading that would laugh at us.

    OMG if we got this I would be beyond good. That would be a hell of way to save face.

    Don't think they'll trade Butler, but Snell would be a huge upgrade for our bench.

    I'd take on Boozer if it meant we got back Mirotic.
