I would just like to point out that this trade is still pending as I'm waiting the rest of my TP's    

(please note the eye rolling, I'm joking, not that serious)

Bulls rationale for the trade: We won't be picking again in the next 80 picks. All the big men will be gone by then. We predict about half of those picks will be big men. Scola gives us the top 3 man big rotation in the league. He should compete for 6th man of the year. Wilson Chandler is a very capable replacement for Prince.

Boxers are still looking to move up into the late 6th exchanging their 7.20 and later picks to do so.

Boxers are still interested in moving into the 8th round using their 9.28.

To compensate I have a bunch of 11ths to negotiate with and apparently one 11th rounder has now had a price set as 4 picks in the lower rounds

Sure, a 3 man rotation is good but you take a guy thats starting and have him coming off the bench, not sure if he accepts that role, also I dont think its very defensable to trade away a starter so that you can have wilson chandler fill his role.  I know I said Teyshaun was overrated, but hes a huge step up over chandler

I would understand why a rival would try to bad mouth the deal. There are 96 minutes to go between Pau Gasol, Horford and Scola. No one will be upset about minutes. You have to give to get. I seem to recall the C's once trading a starting forward for a backup big man and winning the '86 title

Let the morning session begin.

Remember that there is now 5 minutes between picks.

Im sure chandler wont complain about minutes either since he is now starting...

I'm hoping for more.  Got to fill out my bench and talent is winding down quickly.
