Chi's offer for Dwight= pick any 2 or 3 (besides rose) bulls players
i'd assume if orlando had to pick 3 bulls players that it would be Deng, Noah, and Taj. Orlando would be dumb to take on Boozers horrible contract, or would they? One of the drawbacks is that Dwight might come as a package with Turk. If this happens, chicago would have the best PG and C in the league
This might lead us with:
I think we could definitely get a SF like a Caron Butler to fill Deng's shoes and we may just need a SG that can hit 3s and play solid defense at that point. I say Bulls need to be very proactive in this situation.
Re: Chi's offer for Dwight= pick any 2 or 3 (besides rose) bulls players
If we do end up getting Dwight it's going to be something like this:
Dwight
Hedo
for
Noah
Deng
Omer
The bobcats pick
Nikola Mirotic (sp)
I'd rather keep Omer just because of his potential but it wouldn't make senses for ORL to take Gibson when they have Bass and Anderson, and it wouldn't make sense for us to give him up when Booz is so injury prone and Dwight is basically superhuman.
I love the team we have right now, but the thing is when you have an opportunity like this, you can't let it go. Aside from the joy of watching a Rose and Howard pick and roll, or transition game, you have to imagine how much it would hinder our championship chances if Howard teamed up with the Knicks, D-will on the nets, got CP3 to ORL, or even teamed up with Kobe or Durant in the west. We already have enough problems with him when he's on his own. I don't think there's a team in the NBA that could beat Dwight if he had some help.
Anyways, this is what our team would probably look like...
Rose
DeShawn Stevenson (why is no one looking at him??)
Hedo
Boozer
Dwight
Watson/maybe we'd have to take on Duhon?
Brewer/Jimmy Butler
Grant Hill?/Jimmy Butler
Gibson
vet min C? /big sexy

Yeah, I'd trade Noah and Deng and possibly throw in Taj for a player like Dwight Howard. Still leaves the Bulls with Rose and Boozer + Dwight Howard. Start Hedo at the 3 and try and sign or trade for someone like Caron Butler, Rip Hamilton, Vince Carter or Jason Richardson.
Starting lineup/rotation:
C: Dwight Howard/Asik
PF: Carlos Boozer/Kurt Thomas
SF: Hedo/Kyle Korver
SG: Rip Hamilton or Caron Butler or Vince Carter or Jason Richardson/Brewer
PG: Derrick Rose/CJ Watson
The Bulls would just need to find another back up PF and another back up PG.
Re: Chi's offer for Dwight= pick any 2 or 3 (besides rose) bulls players
We did fine with just Watson, but it never hurts to have another big. The reason I'd rather have a guy like Stevenson is because a starting line up of Rose/VCtypeplayer/Hedo/Boozer would essentially leave DH on his own on defence, even with Thibbs system. I think we'd be smart in getting a defensive SG to start and guard the opposing teams best perimeter player.
Re: Chi's offer for Dwight= pick any 2 or 3 (besides rose) bulls players
Personally, I go as high as Deng, Noah, Asik, Bobcats 1st.
Taj is too valuable seeing as how often Boozer gets injured, and combine that with the fact the only other servicable big would be Kurt Thomas.
The only way I'd throw in more is if we got back Bass or Ryan Anderson. because I dont want to risk playing Dwight 40 minutes a night and burning him out because there's no other bigs on the roster.
Re: Chi's offer for Dwight= pick any 2 or 3 (besides rose) bulls players
I think Turk would be just fine in Chicago. He can handle the ball and shoot the 3. Really not a bad player for the team if we got Dwight with him.
I say they should be real aggressive with this, if Dwight is cool with signing the extension here then go at him. You would have the best defensive player in the league and the most dominate center in the league. Rose + Dwight automatically makes this team a contender for the next decade.
Dwight as the anchor in Thibs defensive system. Omg lol
