Not an ESPN Insiders but I saw on ESPN....

[theBeast32]

a topic that said, "Why a Boozer trade would help the Bulls. Being a Bulls fan myself, I'd have to agree based on these playoffs but it got me to wonder on NBA2k11, what trades would you make to get for Boozer?

Re: Not an ESPN Insiders but I saw on ESPN....

The Bulls offered me Carlos Boozer in return for DeMarcus Cousins

I think yall would be great with taj Gibson starting. To me, the bulls should trade boozer for a better starting 2 guard.

I agree here. Taj, to me, is a defensive version of Boozer. Not quite there offensively but defensively he's better. Both have mid-range game. Perfect for Rose and Noah.

I agree with the above 2 posters, move Taj in the starting lineup. Trade Boozer for a offensive guard.

So like a Boozer for Dorrell Wright and Luis Amundson?
OR
Boozer and 2012 2nd round pick for JR Smith,

JR is always a FA so I wouldn't need to trade for him. But trading for another shooter wouldn't be a bad idea.

Re: Not an ESPN Insiders but I saw on ESPN....

i dont know why but in my bulls myplayer, boozer gets the crap blocked out of him all the time x.x

i seems like he never misses when he doesnt get blocked. but he'll get blocked like 1 in 4 shots. still shooting a great % but its just funny to see him get blocked so much

Re: Not an ESPN Insiders but I saw on ESPN....

It doesn't help that Boozer has 5yr $80mil left on his contract...

OUCH!!!

Probably gonna be tough to trade that guy...

you are correct here. however, on the game, it's not all that hard unless you're going after someone in particular.

Yeah booz in the playoffs did NOT look good at all and to be honest Taj should really start.

As far a trade umm maybe go after a Aldridge or a Randolph.

Re: Not an ESPN Insiders but I saw on ESPN....

The bulls need a post up threat. Boozer is just too inconsistent. He's not good against big guys.

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

Re: Not an ESPN Insiders but I saw on ESPN....

If I'm the Bulls, I look to move Gibson before I move Boozer.

1. Boozer's contract is going to be hard to move.
2. Boozer's stock is probably at an all-time low right now, when he's generally been great in the playoffs with the exception of this season.
3. Gibson's stock is probably at an all-time high right now.

Note: I'm not saying they should trade Gibson. Just that it would make more sense to trade him than Boozer. Personally, I like the depth that they have in the front court.

would trading Gibson, who is younger with better defense, be better for the Bulls?

I believe so for the reasons that I listed in my post before.
