A Trade Jerry Krause Must Consider

The First thing the Bulls have to do is trade Marcus Fizer to the Clippers for a number one pick. The Clippers need a physical force to go with their incredibly athletic team. The Bulls, on the other hand, need to draft once again. Fizer is not for the Bulls, and the Bulls are not for Fizer. The number one pick we get from the Clips will likely be from the 5-7 slot. The Bulls pick will be in the top three. So we positioned ourselves for another two lottery pick draft. Another trade that must go down will be trading Brad Miller and Corey Benjamin to the Sixers for Toni Kukoc. This, I think, works under the cba. In Toni, we get a guy the fans can cheer for, and a guy who knows how to run the most integral part of the triangel, the small forward. These deals have us looking like this for the rest of the year. 1. Bryce Drew 2. Ron Mercer 3. Toni Kukoc 4. Elton Brand 5. Dragan Tarlac this team will fair a little better than the bulls do now, this way we will definately not finish with the worst record of the year. Now comes the NBA Draft 2001. Jerry Krause now has a chance to redeem himself from last years draft. If Jerry does what I want him to do, the summer of 2000 will be a distant memory in bulls fans minds. He must draft either Gerald Wallace or Eddie Griffin, preferably Griffin because he is more physical, and then draft one of the centers(preferably Woods). This puts the Bulls in great shape for the future. We will also have cap room to spend, and we know we will not get any superstars, but guess what, we do not need them. Krause should use the cap room hiring quality veterans and good leaders. So our team now shapes out like this... 1. Jamal Crawford 2. Ron Mercer 3. Eddie Griffin/Gerald Wallace 4. Elton Brand 5. Loren Woods/Eddy Curry/Tyson Chandler/Brendan Haywood Bench: 1. Khalid El-Amin 2. Ron Artest 3. Toni Kukoc 4. Michael Ruffin 5. Dalibor Bagaric A.J. Guyton plus a leader, maybe Ewing, I dont know.

This team is very diverse and versatile, the bulls can play two styles with this team, physical and graceful. This team will be very good for years to come.

I tell you... if Eddy Curry comes out and the Bulls pass him up their missing out on the best player that they'll ever see.

This guy has the work ethic to be twice the player Shaq is.

I know the Clippers are stupid, but do you really think any 8-18 team is going to trade its number one pick for a guy who is only averaging 7.5ppg and shooting a disastorous 34% from the field on a 3-21 team?

The 76ers have the best record in the NBA. If they do a mid-season trade with anyone, they will be fools. I don't understand why you want Kukoc back, the Bulls already have decent fowards and a pretty good shooting guard. What they need is a point guard and a center.

Hey W I definitely agree. Eddy Curry is an excellent ball player for such a young guy. It may take some time but I think that Curry will definitely pan out and become an excellent nba player that the bulls would be stupid to pass up. I dont know if he will be twice the player Shaq is but I do believe he could be close with proper coaching and good vet. help.

They did trade a first round pick for Dooling, you are correct. I am not sure if it was the 2001 pick, do you know?

what you just said is great it is everthing i have thought of. But with a little twist. I say grab the center first then get the small forward i say this because woods will fall imbtween the 7-11 pick, We will get the first pick unless the hawks do worst then us which will not happen with that we get curry thornwood highschool 7ft 300 pounds that is force.

What r u talkin about????? I played Thornwood about a week ago and lost by like 5 points. I matched up against curry and all he does is use his weight.....plus, he shoots low....ez to block, not quick on his feet either!!!
