Trade idea

[A-town Hawks]

Both the Hawks and the Bulls are in a predicament pertaining to their RFA's. With Deng threatning to take the one-year deal and leave if a agreement isn't reached by aug. 4. Then Childress threatning to bolt to Europe if a SnT isnt reached. Why not swap?

Hawks trade:

Josh Childress (4yr/26mil)

Marvin Williams

Bulls trade:

Luol Deng (4yr/45mil)

Thabo Sefolosha

Our new line-up:

Bibby/Law/Claxton

Joe/Law/Thabo

Deng/Thabo

Smith/Zaza

Horford/Zaza/Jones

Hawks:

I think this instantly makes us a serious playoff threat in the East. The Hawks get a perfect complement to JJ's game and a efficient and reliable second scoring option behind JJ. Deng is young and pretty durable, he's a class act whom we would all love. He plays hard and plays to win. With Law/Joe/Deng/Smith/Horford we have a starting lineup that can really grow and compete together for years to come.

Bulls:

This is definetly a trade paxson looks at the idea of giving a young learning pg like a Rose one of the best cutters maybe in the league (chillz) is something that can really help Rose throughout his first season. Then you get a Marvin williams who still has potential to be a good player and can probably be a starter next to Ben Gordan next year. I think this trades helps the team move on, because with such a class act like Deng is for him to start to be nuisance must mean the relationship is pretty damaged.

My fault about not putting this idea in the right forum Dolfan... still trying to get used to the new rule.

How about the Nets?

The move likely will mean the end of Marcus Williams' days in New Jersey. Heading into his third year in the league, Williams has been plagued by injuries so far. He's missed parts of the last two seasons and has averaged 6.4 points and three assists in his career.

The Nets are said to be looking to package Williams and one of their other young players, such as forwards Josh Boone or Sean Williams, for a veteran. They still have eight players on their roster with two years' or less experience in the league.

With an abundance of big men on their roster, the Nets are also said to be looking into sign-and-trade scenarios involving restricted free agent Nenad Krstic, who missed the majority of the last two seasons due to a left ACL injury. Thorn has said that it's still possible Krstic will play for the Nets next season, but that is seeming more and more unlikely.

The team is also likely to lose free agent forward Bostjan Nachbar, who has drawn interest from several teams. Nachbar averaged 9.8 points off the bench last season.
