Ray and our 2010 1st Rounder for Tyrus Thomas and Kirk Heinrich?

I'd jump all over that.  Great backup PG who can also defend the 2 occasionally.  A REAL power forward to backup KG and take a lot of minutes from him if needed.

It puts Big Baby back as a 3rd option for PF, and minimizes Rasheed's minutes a bit too.

We don't need another young player at #25 in the draft that Doc won't play.  Kirk and Tyrus will be solid for five years!

And we could probably get Ray back on a Vets' minimum over the summer.  Or the bi-annual exception.

I dont like it. Trading a starter for two bench players... Doesnt work for me.

you're a little late to the party -- this idea has been discussed and shot down for months.

besides, we'd be the ones agreeing, not chicago. we wouldn't have to give them any picks.

  I don't think I'd do it if the draft pick went the other way.

Why are there still people misspelling Hinrich's name after dozens of threads discussing him?

I don't believe we can trade our 2010 1st round pick, since we didn't have a 1st rounder in 2009.

If we trade Ray for anything other than a clear starting SG, we'd have to platoon the SG spot, which probably doesn't help us.  Anything that risks TA being needed for significant minutes doesn't make us better, either.
