Bulls would start to suck if they got DH. too much would be needed to get him, not worth depleting the bench.



No team with Dwight Howard and Derrick Rose on it could suck. The thing is, finding a legit starting Pg/C combo is the hardest thing to do in the league. Finding some wing players is easy. Finding role players is easy. They're a dime a dozen. It would suck to give up my man Lu and Noah but...you have to do it if you're a GM. Can't pass up the best PG/C combo the NBA has seen in decades.

All you fans trying to dream up trade scenarios where your team can land a star point guard by just trading away a rack of shootaround basketballs — or Luke Walton — we have another name to consider.

Brandon Jennings.

They are rethinking everything in Milwaukee and injured center Andrew Bogut was already on the rumored trade list. But the Bucks are listening to offers for their quick young point guard, reports Sam Amick at Sports Illustrated

----------------------------

Dwight Howard will have interest in joining the Clippers and Heat, according to two sources.

Howard, who reportedly prefers to enter free agency, would need to go to those teams via trade due to cap issues.

----------------------------

The Blazers and Clips are discussing a deal that would send Jamal Crawford to L.A. for Eric Bledsoe and Ryan Gomes, sources say.

-----------------------------

John Shannon shocked listeners of Prime Time Sports Friday saying Raps GM Glen Grunwald said 'no' to a trade that would’ve sent Dirk Nowitzki and Steve Nash to Toronto for Vince Carter and Antonio Davis.

In hindsight, such a trade looks like a huge missed opportunity for the Raptors since Nash is the greatest basketball player to ever come out of Canada and has since gone on to win back-to-back MVPs for the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons.

Nowitzki won an MVP himself in the 2006-07 season and has more recently won an NBA championship with the Dallas Mavericks in 2011 while taking the Finals MVP honours.

Though Vince Carter is an eight-time all-star and was a budding super star at the time of this proposed trade, "Vinsanity" has slowed down and has been criticized for not playing to his potential.

So what are we getting in exchange for the NBA? I realize we are only going to get something that i akin to little league, and that even that is a stretch, but we can't just give it away for free can we?

If Howard gets to go to the Heat or Clippers, then the trade for CP3 to the Lakers should have been allowed.

No one can win if Howard goes to the Heat. It's an all star team then.

There's no realistic reason for the Heat to make a trade for Howard. They're already the favorites to win a title.

Bucks and Warriors have agreed in principle on trade to send Bogut and Jackson to Warriors for Ellis, Udoh and Brown, league source tells Y!
