Should Pax give him a look over Randolph since he's a FA and would have to trade for Randolph?
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2883178 Lewis' stats 2006-07 Statistics PPG 22.4 RPG 6.60 APG 2.4 EFF + 21.33 Randolph's stats 2006-07 Statistics PPG 23.6 RPG 10.10 APG 2.2 EFF + 22.40 everything's pretty much even except rebounds. now, the question is, which one fits the Bulls lockerroom attitude? dont both have their warts? |

Yeah, the biggest thing comes down to money unfortunately. He would be a nice addition but it would mean someone else leaving.

QUOTE (DutheDoduhon21 @ May 26 2007, 10:17 AM)  he would be a nice addition, is he a PF? No, strictly a small forward... Regardless, there's no way we could afford him, we're basically just going to have the mid-level exemption. We wouldn't be able to clear enough space to get him. Even if we let Noc walk and signed no draft picks we'd still only have like $8 mil in space, which just won't be enough. It'd still have to be a sign-and-trade anyways, with Hinrich being the principle piece to match salaries. That'd seem pretty moot though, he's basically Deng with a bit more range on the jumper. |

Im sure he could manage to play some powerforward though too.. I mean he is 6'10 but I suppose we could just move Deng over to PF if all else fails.

Rashard is a very good player but he is gonna make a ton of money and plays the position that our best player plays. we have wayyyy bigger needs. next.

How would we be able to acquire him anyways? It'd have to take a sign-and-trade, and we can't include Nocioni (BYC)

I'd love to see him in a Bulls uniform but I think he's going to end up with Orlando when it's all said and done.

Yeah from all accounts he is Orlando bound. Hopefully though that opens the door for Orlando to trade away Darko to us possibly.

i would love to have darko........at the right price
sign and trade nocioni plus du and khryapa expiring contracts (both guys could be good backups for orlando too) and your looking at about 10 million in salary i dnt think darko is worth 10 per year, but i wonder what his agent has in mind |

I think there is absolutely no reason to think that Darko Milicic is going to be worth the money someone is going to give him. He's going to get 2x as much $ as his production has earned him solely because he was the #2 draft pick in the Lebron/Melo/Wade draft. If he was the #15 pick and did exactly the same thing every game that he's done so far, he might not even get the MLE.

The reason he was the number 2 pick is because he is a big with talent. Just look at other big guys in the league who really arent all that great and see their contracts. If your tall and not a total stiff you will get paid in the NBA. Hey if your tall enough you can even be a stiff(Shawn Bradley). |

If guys aren't performing, then throwing money at them because they're tall just doesn't make them better. |
