I thought by the title that the Bulls had finally traded Scottie Pippen to The Original Kid Cairo.

This appears to be another lottery pick, Bulls' fans...If John Paxson is still the General Manager, DON'T SCREW THIS UP!!! The Bulls hit the jackpot with Derrick Rose, and finally got a top pick right!

I thought by the title that the Bulls had finally traded Scottie Pippen to The Original Kid Cairo.

Even though it's not a lottery pick, but I have no problem with the trade.

I never really minded Thabo....but I cant say im going to lose any sleep to see him gone. My big problem with this whole shakeup is Noah is still on the team.

A guy like Tyler Hansbrough might be available.

:lol: Don't laugh at me. I've had a man crush on him for 3 years now. Bucket and I have some type of outstanding bet about my guy.

Not only that but he can play basketball. It's likely he won't ever be a star but he will be a good NBA player for 10 years. Take it to the bank. Athleticism isn't everything. He has the fire and the passion and the will to win and he is my guy. FU if you don't like him. :wink:

Only a true basketball fan can appreciate what Tyler has to offer.

Im not at all convinced he'll even have as good a career as Luke Walton.

No. I don't even know who that is.

He will be better than Walton. I see him as a 12 and 10 guy. Everyone fails to realize he has been playing well against guys that will be NBA players. He doesn't only play with energy he plays with his head.

Hansbrough's game was more polished his freshman year than Morrison's game will ever be. No comparison.

I dont know, I think this has "Michael Beasley will be dominant his rookie year and could play Center" and "Rex Grossman will win the Super Bowl" written all over it.

I admitted I was wrong about Rose.

According to SI.com, Bulls trade Thabo to OKC for 2009 1st round pick.

This will not be a lottery pick from what I can tell: From CNNSI: Chicago is dealing Thabo Sefolosha to Oklahoma City for a 2009 first-round pick, a league source said. The Thunder own the first-round picks of the Suns and Nuggets, and will send the least valuable pick to Chicago in exchange for Sefolosha.

And why the fuck do they have a Phoenix first rounder, the trade for Kurt Thomas?

I wonder if the Bulls will finally retire Norm Van Lier's #2 now that Thabo has been dealt...

Phil, I'm not exactly going to lose any sleep that Thabo Sefolosha, Larry Hughes, Drew Gooden, Andres Nocioni, Michael Ruffin & Cedric Simmons are all gone. This Bulls team was terribly uneven to begin with.

Thabo was the 13th pick, Bulls will probably get pick 16-20. It's basically a do-over for Pax.

Nas, as a true basketball fan I can appreciate him when it comes to college basketball, but I sincerely doubt he'll be in the NBA for 10 years. Im not at all convinced he'll even have as good a career as Luke Walton.

Everybody on this board has incorrectly assessed talent at one point or another. Nas may have been wrong about Beasley, but he was right about Brandon Roy when nobody else around here was talking about him. You were celebrating the great potential of the Bulls only a few short months ago. A little over a half season passes and you want the whole team traded. Think you might have been a little off on your analysis, too?
