I have no idea whether his sources inside the Bulls are legit or not, but I know from Soxtalk that we have a few people with inside sources that ocassionally break stories and in time hopefully we will have that on this site as well (breaking Bulls stories) but this guy could in fact be legit.
The only thing I wonder is that it seems like the Bulls are getting too much in return (KG plus the #6 pick) but at the same time we are ridding them of a bad contract or two.

Hassel would give us the perimeter defender we need out on the wing (he's one of the best in the league at that), Madsen is a salary pawn by the Wolves and Garnett is the best player to play on the Bulls not named Michael Jordan.
We still get a high draft pick to take one guy as well (probably a perimeter player if I were to guess, but it could also be a big to accompany Garnett).
If this were to happen...I'd immediately buy a Garnett or Hinrich jersey (just because I've been really lagging on buying a Hinrich jersey).
