    Boy's a Baller! No wonder we and other teams tried to trade for him. Then again, we gave up Speedy for him and it paid off down the line

    Whats worse is we had a chance to get him back and didnt!
    Not for lack of trying, the Bulls just had better pieces to offer

    OK -- you can have kept Salmons, but give back the 2003 le that so many believe wouldn't have been possible without Speedy Claxton.

    That Gortat is not good offensively?

    That was acknowledged...

    Another case of hindsight is 20/20. No one knew he would translate so well into the NBA. He would be almost a perfect fit right now though. Just what we need, a shooter who can also put the ball on the floor and get to the hoop...unlike another SG we picked up. Oh well, we can't get him now, so might as well think about other options.

    I didn't think we ever had him to keep?

    If I recall, it was like the Leandro Barbosa trade in that we traded for Claxton and gave Philly the pick, then we proceeded to pick who they asked us to pick and ship him to Philly. Because of some sort of rule we had to make the pick before the trade could be official but the deal was made before we made the pick so while Salmons was techinically a Spur briefly, he really wasn't.

    You are not allowed to trade away your 1st round draft pick in consecutive years. And I guess they wanted to have that option/or trading chip the following year.

    Leandro Barbosa was our 2003 selection that we traded to the Suns for a future protected first-round pick and John Salmons was a 2002 selection that we traded to Philly for Speedy.
