[QUOTE=NattyPButter]you really have nothing. What you have is 2 2nd rounders and Sacs 1st that is protected. The team sucks so bad that the Bulls will never see it. The team can swap the Cavs 2015 which is also lottery protected. So all I see is the Bulls got Bynum and 2 2nd rounders.[/QUOTE]
Still better than nothing since they were going to let Deng walk once he turned down the extension. Get a few draft picks and some tax savings, it's not amazing, but it's a decent return.
Andrew Bynum IS included in this deal:

Comon man, don't piss on my parade :D
For our team's flexibility? It was well worth it. Deng is 29 and suits a team that can use him as a spot up shooter, like the Cavs will. Deng is the perfect fit for that team, he won't have to be relied upon for offense as much and he can focus more on defense, along with being one of the most well behaved players in the league.
I'm happy for the Cavs too, they got themselves a great player for what they need.
[QUOTE=kamil]So who's going to be the starting centre? Is Joakim gonna hold his starting spot? They can't play them both... :/[/QUOTE]
I believe Drew is getting waived.
[QUOTE=KyrieTheFuture]Dion already came out denying trade demands, I love this trade for us.[/QUOTE]
I do too :cheers:
I genuinely hope good things for your franchise, I'm happy we both got what we wanted out of it.

Deng has already shown his abilities -- he's a good
Defensive ability with the ability to be the 3rd/4th offensive option on a great team
The 3/30 offer was above market value -- Chicago would have no option but to let him walk knowing they need the cap space to
Sign a legitimate running mate for rose
The team
Doesn't get any worse with butler at the 3
Cleveland has a good chance of sneaking
Into the bottom of the playoff race and with Chicagos draft history they can get extremely valuable pieces to complete the puzzle on rookie deals
The protected picks also offer assets for a future sign and trade (melo )
Which is better than "nothing"

I really don't see how the cavs got anything here unless they plan on paying significantly over market to keep deng ?
Maybe a first round playoff sweep is a victory ?
That trade was for the picks. In addition Reinsdorf is cheap and won't extend the man so whatever. Andrew Bynum will be WAIVED today. Mark my Flucking words. :pimp: He is a cancer and is too much on the books for Chicago. Boozer is up next... for trade bait. If Booz makes it through the trade deadline he will be amnestied in the off season.
Noah
Gibson
NIKOLA MIROTIC
Dunleavy or Draft Pick
Rose
Hell I say package Boozer, Dunleavy, Teague, for Pau Gasol

Since when did trading what will equate to 3 second round picks (Sac pick will never be given they're not gonna be out of the lottery the next 2 years) become getting fleeced? Deng is a superior player to Gasol and we have nothing at the 3 while being overstocked in the 4/5 department
People constantly contradict themselves when it comes to the Bulls FO.
We paid Jay Williams even though we didn't have to
We payed Ben Wallace a lot of money for next to nothing
We gave rose his payday
We paid Boozer
We paid Deng
We paid Noah
Yet we are a cheap franchise.:rolleyes:

What does deng do you beyond this season? Do you
Resign a 30 year old deng to the 3/38 deal he wants?
Where does the team go with deng on It this year?
I don't see any value? Let's say you
Win 6 more games -- what difference does It make ?

When people are saying we are cheap, they are talking about how the organisation annually stays under the salary cap except the last few years. But yes, you are right in that aspect. We do pay for the good players, when it is required.

Last time I remember cavs fans talking about insignificant picks
Was the one that ended up going to the clippers for the baron davis trade
