http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/...Maybe the Bulls are being more exploratory with this but it just goes to show the potential value of a high lottery pick whether you decide to use it or not.
Imagine if the Bulls did something like...
Deng and their 1st for #3 and Ariza instead of Okafor. The Wizards want to unload as much salary as possible though which is understandable. Both teams have options draft night should be pretty interesting.
This is actually a solid trade rumor that makes sense for both sides....It probably won't happen.
Why would Chicago trade their All-star SF to get a player who likely will never be as good as Deng? Just to get younger? They are a win-now team so not sure why they do this unless its financial. And why does washington do this? They already made a desperation win-now trade to get OK4 and Ariza and that didn't work out. I would think if they traded for a vet it would be a young vet.

It might be financial. Also, Jimmy Butler was really good in the playoff.
Victor Oladipo that is what Bulls are targeting any team that gets him will eventually win Championships. He is going to be a star in the league. I would throw Chandler, Shumpert and the 24 pick to get him. I will take back junk contract like OKAFOR.

Yeah I think this kid could possibly be the IT of this draft. I would count out Len being special himself.
