Would Bulls trade No.1 pick for Wade?

[FlAVaK]

The only way I see this makin sense is, if the Heat try to rid of contracts!

Tradin Wade (14,4 next season) and Banks (4,1 n.s.), both deals run trough 2010/11
for Hughes (12,8 n.s.) and Tyrus Thomas (3,7 n.s.), both deals end in the summer of 2010, and some Picks and/or Sefolosha (1,9 n.s.)

If that happens, Miami needs to draft Rose, maybe they want to get that No.1 pick to guarantee that, or there would be a silent agreement in the trade about who picking which player, or the trade happens after the draft...

But, Miami could end up with Rose and Thomas and lots of cap space in 2010, so they can build around these guys...

...and Chicago would go from lottery to contending with a rotation of:
Hinrich, Wade, Deng, Beasley, Noah, Gordon, Nocioni, Gooden,...

Just a thought. The Bulls would do that trade in a heartbeat, it depends on how much Miami turns into Rebuilding Mode and what they get other than Hughes and Thomas...

I thought it would happen last night after the rumor broke yesterday. The Bulls have nothing to lose and everything to gain with this.

They can keep Gordon and Kirk. BG is the 6th man and backs up Wade so you'll have a scorer on the floor at all times. Not only will this bring fans to the arena since Wade is a hometown guy, I would put more faith in a proven NBA player than a guy playing 1 year of college.

Wade to the Bulls would be cool to watch.

i dont think its gonna happen though.

Wade becomes the next Jordan - people forget how darn good this guy was in the clutch when healthy two years ago. Do it Bulls!

The Heat would be better off trading the #2 pick to us for Manu.

Think they meant D Wade and a 2nd round pick for the 1st round pick. So the Heat would end up with both the No. 1 and No. 2 picks for the draft. They could then draft both Beasley and Rose.

That way the numbers would probably add up.

That makes more sense. Although then I would go back to wondering how healthy Wade really is.

Chicago has $40 million in salaries currently on the books for 08-09, Miami has $53 mil and Wade salary is $14 mil. Could they do this trade without any player exchange?

I would do that trade in a new york minute.

D Wade and and the 2nd pick for the first?

Bring it on.

Wade should be flattered.
