Trade rumors

[tranum]

1. Bulls and Clippers

-Clippers get: Andres Nocioni, Kirk Hinrich
-Bulls get: Elton Brand

I thought I read somewhere that this was a possible trade that could happen...what do you guys think of it?


2. During the season I guess the Bucks GM was trying to make a trade for Zach Randolph.  Given the bucks were not giving the knicks much I think it may have been a decent trade.  I guess the Bucks owner stopped it from happening.  What do you guys think of it?

-Bucks get: Zach Randolph
-Knicks get: Charlie Bell, Desmond Mason, Dan Gadzuric

i don't think either happens. randolph wouldn't fit in with skiles so it would be a repeat of his new york days. nocioni plays the same position as thornton and he'll want more money then he's worth (like everyone on the bulls). hinrich is nice, but neither player comes close to the production brand produces, let alone the fact the clippers would have a large hole at PF with no one to fill it.

its not too bad.. the clippers fill a need with hinrich but get a bit more mediocre.. i mean thats a pretty solid starting 5 but it wont make much of a dent in the west.. if they trade brand they need to pillage a team to replace him
