First trade: Chicago needs PG insurance and Bass doesn't help them with anything with Boozer and Gibson on the roster. They've got Mike James now, but they might be more interested in trading away Teague than Hinrich since they're trying to win sooner than later and Teague requires some more development.
Moranis' trade: Boozer isn't a center and Nene prefers playing PF more so than center. Washington doesn't do it, especially considering they've already got a glut of power forwards. As stated, Chicago has no need for Bass, though Lee might be useful as a backup or even replacement for Jimmy Butler if they go through with trading Deng and slide Butler over to the 3.
