    Noooo DM, don't do it ... dude, Lee is a starting caliber SG! Got to be kidding me? I'd rather trade Martin-no-defense than Lee ... this sucks!

    I'd rather give up Martin for as much as we can and start Lee. Don't deal just to deal, chicago has nothing we need/want.

    Trading Courtney Lee for this Asik character is lame. No other way to describe that.

    Anchor: " anything new come up since 9"

    Bucher: "Chicago is looking to add a shooting guard and the buzz is they are going to get that done and the name going around is Courtney Lee of the Houston Rockets. One way or another, the Bulls are going to add a key piece before the deadline"

    You can draw your own conclusions but it sounds like to me this justed heated up again in the last hour.

    Morey is really ticking me off. Clee is our best player off the bend. Rockets organization is really disappointing me if this pans out.

    Seriously. Why? Why are people OBSESSED with the fact that we need to get a young, 7ft, center?

    You guys seriously want to overpay for Asik, who hasn't done a thing and the Bulls want an arm and a leg for him. Do you guys know he is only 6 months younger than Courtney Lee? He's going to be 25 this year.

    Sure he is great on the boards, but he has no range whatsoever, he is an average at best defender in the post and he is very one-sided. Let's definitely get him cos he is a 7 footer. I think he has plenty to still work on to become even a medicore starter.

    If you want a young center that has better tools and probably more to work with and is probably where Asik is at. Why not look at someone like Valanciunas or Nogueira from the draft? Even, someone like Cole Aldrich would suffice better than Asik.

    Yes, I'd much rather keep Lee.

    If we get a potential top 10 pick?

    Agree to disagree.

    Terrible. Martin is our most consistent offensive option on a VERY inconsistent team. Without him we suck even more than we've already this year. Would the offense gonna run threw Lee :confused:

    And the Clippers probably said the same thing in 92. Almost twenty years later look at them. :p
