Bulls - N. Collison
2010-11 Roster:
PG: Rose, Watson
SG: Bogans, Brewer, Korver
SF: Deng
PF: Boozer, Gibson, Thomas
C: Noah, Asik
2011-12 Roster:
PG: Rose, Malcolm Lee(28thPick/Antonio Daniels)
SG: Stuckey(RFA), Bogans
SF: Deng, Jereme Richmond(30thPick/Matt Barnes)
PF: Boozer, Collison(13M-2010-11;2M-2011-12)
C: Gasol(RFA), Noah
Acquiring Collison for essentially Brewer, Korver, Watson, Asik and Gibson isn't what most fans would want any part of. But if each fan were told they could get Stuckey and Gasol as a result of doing such a deal, then I'm sure they all would want a part of it. Fact is, Bulls should consider acquiring Collison as oppose to raw-cap, even if you have to make Deng the only principle in a such deal. By acquiring Collison, Bulls would put themselves in a position to go out and sign two relatively young players who'll likely put the franchise over the top and into the NBA Finals next season because of the way his deal constructed. No question. Stuckey is as close as you'll get to comparing any player in the league to Dwyane Wade, and Marc Gasol is as much of a threat offensively in the Eastern Conference as Dwight Howard is.
76ers - Westbrook, Korver, Watson, Brewer
2010-11 Roster:
PG: Holiday, Williams
SG: Meeks, Turner
SF: Iguodala, Nocioni
PF: Brand, Young
C: Hawes, Speights
2011-12 Roster:
PG: Westbrook, Lou Williams, Watson(EXP)
SG: Turner, Brewer(EXP), Meeks, Korver(EXP)
SF: Young, Nocioni
PF: Markieff Morris(16th/Al Harrington), Brand
C: Hawes, Speights
Like Philly fans, put me in the same boat: I'm not sure why Rod Thorn is still hanging onto Iguodala. He's pretty much shown his worth to a franchise that just not too long ago maxed Elton Brand out. They're in a chokehold financially and are unable to make any major additions as a result. They also have invested their recent top-three pick in a player who, well -- how can I say this? -- doesn't know how to be Scottie Pippen to Andre Iguodala's Michael Jordan. And that's understandable after all. Perhaps it is just time to make a bold move at the expense of Iguodala and get back what you can, like some expirings and a cornerstone-type player. Here's my theory as to what they should do: make a play for Westbrook. Westbrook would be a nice addition to a city which loves its' underdogs in Philly. Maybe he's not A.I. but he could be now out of the equivalent-of-celibacy in OKC. Also with the arrival of Westbrook, Turner could then find himself by subsequently being forced into a crucial role of the offense; he could be Eric Snow to Westbrook's Allen Iverson. Just a quick theory.
Thunder - Iguodala, Holiday
2010-11 Roster:
PG: Westbrook, Maynor
SG: Sefolosha, Harden
SF: Durant
PF: Ibaka, Collison
C: Perkins, Nazr Mohammed
2011-12 Roster:
PG: Holiday, Maynor
SG: Iguodala, Harden
SF: Durant, Sefolosha
PF: Ibaka, Gibson
C: Perkins, Asik
OKC is obviously the winners in this trade and rightfully so. Getting Iguodala and Holiday not only guarantees OKC a drastically better defense on the perimeter, but it also becomes inevitable that the chance of another team making it out the West next season is slim. You get two solid creators in the half-court on offense in those two, and you get two solid defensive bigs in Gibson and Asik, two who'll contribute mightily to much of OKC's fastbreak points.
