    As I mentioned, it can be <i>Seasoned for Taste</i> if you think Chicago is getting too good of a deal or Houston isn't getting enough.


    Miller is a 33 year Center that can give a productive 30 minutes a night. He is also entering the final year of his contract which fits with Yao being out this upcoming season.

    Miller
    Scola
    Ariza
    ?
    Brooks

    Andersen
    Landry
    Chase
    ?
    Brooks

    I don't see Cook as being part of the rotation and getting other teams to throw in some cash to help dispose of his contract is a benefit.

    T Thomas?
    Thank you, but <b>No</b>. Give the minutes to Landry, Dorsey and Hayes. They are interested in playing every minute while on the court while T Thomas isn't.

    Yeah, but what I am so angry about this rumor is not the fact that Shane is leaving, but the fact that the value of Shane Battier is way better than we can get from this trade. we can get much better things by sending shane, who can be the last piece for every championship team. If we gonna trade shane with Bulls, then we must get Hinrich for minimum, and trade him to Jazz, no hell no to jazzholes.

    man, i thought this was for real, seems like just gossip/rumor.

    so i like tyrus thomas, but i think keeping battier is a better option, because battier is our glue on defense....

    tyrus thomas, i've always tried to like him, he's sorta like stromile swift...and being like stromile swift, i mean that's not a good thing. i don't have empirical evidence to back it up, but based on watching him play, i haven't seen anything that impressive to get him for battier..

    i didn't even see that landry would be included in the deal, and i understand landry's expendable, but him AND battier for tyrus thomas? why??

    fesenko, don't know who he is, but i'm assuming he's good if this trade's gonna be considered a somewhat decent deal for us?

    You want a superstar on the roster next year and keep Scola then this trade might do it! Remeber we are not contending for a title but setting up everything for the Summer of 2010!

    Ty Thomas has the potential to be a star in the right system and the 7 footer from Utah is a project but with potential...

    I dont even consider guys like Richard Jefferson a star, and I know for a fact Thomas wont ever get to Richard's ceiling

    yeah the way you put it, doing this deal would be good.

    so we'd have..
    brooks (is he moving to the shooting guard spot?)/lowry
    ariza (more of a small forward?)/budinger or other taylor?/wafer or barry returning?
    tyrus thomas (can he play the 3?)
    scola/hayes
    david a. (spelling..)/fesenko

    so yao is a maybe for return after surgery, and tmac is maybe good still in returning?

    so we might still have barry, are we gonna re-sign wafer?

    brooks is moving to the 2, right? who's our point, lowry?

    what would our next moves likely or possibly be? or what would be the best moves for us to make?

    can tyrus play the 3?

    making this would be interesting for sure.
    our team would be pretty good with yao/scola/tyrus/anderson/hayes inside, brooks/lowry/tmac/ariza/budinger or other taylor

    Ty Thomas
    Points Rebounds Assists FG%
    10.8 6.4 1.0 45.1
    Carl Landry
    Points Rebounds Assists FG%
    9.2 5.0 0.6 57.4

    If Thomas doesn't work out we get 12 million of free money next season...we will need it to get a star here!

    hope this trade happens. another big body to fill in space won't hurt and i have a feeling tyrus thomas will only get better. and in our run-n-gun offense next season, he'd be a perfect fit.

    Salary dump obviously, getting ready to make a big splash next summer. Both Thomas and FensakO(?) is expiring. Don't expect them to be re-signed next year. Yeah, Tyrus Thomas ain't a shooting star, don't be fooling yourself.

    Bulls fans need to stop with all these hypothetical trades :rolleyes:

    Wasn't there a rumor earlier about them getting Amare and giving up Hinrich to the Blazers in a 3 way deal.. :rolleyes:

    it makes sense if morey sais he's aiming towards the future even though i dont wanna trade landry and battier.... this must mean were gonna resign wafer to start with ariza.... or t-mac is coming back sooner then expected.... if we do get fesenko and ty thomas wouldn't be too bad.... i'd just look to trade fesenko and cook for spencer hawes.... if only that could happen.... only in fantasy....

    line-up

    brooks/lowry
    wafer/taylor/ t-mac rehabbing
    ariza/budinger
    scola/ty thomas/hayes
    hawes/andersen/dorsey

    im against this trade but if it does happen morey does know what he's doing... lets hope its not true....

    seems to make sense for all teams involved.
    Tyrus could solve our problem at the 5 and Fesenko is a great prospect.

    well that's only if were going young, if the rockets make this trade they wont have a sg that can start... you tell me who can start at the sg if we can trade shane....

    brooks/lowry
    ?/taylor/ t-mac is injured
    ariza/budinger
    scola/ty-thomas
    andersen/dorsey/fesenko

    it's common sense that morey would re-sign wafer with the departure of battier unless you think there's a better free agent sg on the market.... :rolleyes:
