Aye. Great coaching hire along with the talent they have, wouldn't be surprised to see them in the conference finals within the next 2-3 years

Seen some rumours the other day that Thibs wants Butler. Would be a nightmare spacing wise but it would be a fantastic defensive team.
 
Interesting...any idea on who would go the other way to Chicago?

From what I read Chicago would only do the deal with Wiggins involved. Minnesota wanted to do something along the lines of this years pick plus Lavine, Dieng and another (Think it was Shabazz).

Can't imagine Minny trading Wiggins. Wonder if any Butler trade is real possibility or just former coach found new team Internet buzz

I don't see the point in trading him from the Bulls point of view. The whole point of tanking is to get a player like Butler, so it all seems worthless.

I thought they were ready to part ways with Rose and didn't Butler just get a new contract from the Bulls last summer? Be surprised if they ship him out.

Yeah he got a new deal last year.

Rose is being looked at by the Knicks and Lakers according to the Worldwide Leader in Sports, ESPN.

He'd make more sense to trade than Butler.
 
Who is it? I'd guess Charles Oakley

Good guess, but no, Larry 'Grandma' Johnson! Was at a Knicks Pacers playoffs screening in Manhatten 3 years ago, and me and my mate were sat next to where they were doing autograph signings (him, Walt Frazier, a couple others I forget atm). I was wearing a Bulls jersey, he got mad. Funny thing is I totally missed it as I was checking a picture I just took of him on my phone! :eek: :D

I can't support a team called that.

But the 'Knickerbockers' is ok?? :o :p

Haha! That's great. Always thought of Larry Johnson as a mercenary type player. Actually, Oak probably wouldn't have minded since he played for the Bulls
