Bulls - Lakers

Chicago has a logjam at the 4 while LA has a logjam of guards. Let's help both teams out.


Bulls: Nick Young and Tarik Black

With this trade, the Bulls gain two advantages. First, they pick up Nick Young, a solid shooter and scoring option backing up Dunleavy and also brings a new personality that the franchise can profit upon. Second, they open up time for rookie Bobby Portis who flashed potential at the summer league. The only down side is the risk of Doug McDermott falling out of the rotation because he also has shown potential at summer league. This can easily be avoided if Young is subbed in at SG as more of an offensive option in contrast to Kirk Hinrich. In both scenarios, Coach Hoiberg has a lot to work with.



Lakers: Taj Gibson

With rookie D'Angelo Russell, Jordan Clarkson, Kobe Bryant, along with the addition of Lou Williams, the Lakers already have enough guards to work with. In contrast, rookie Julius Randleand the inconsistent Roy Hibbert are not the best starters. Considering Brandon Bass and Robert Sacre are the alternative options, the Lakers are looking pretty weak down low. Coach Byron Scott discussed how there is a potential for Kobe to play the 4 and frankly, that is a huge stretch considering his physique isn't the same as it used to be.With this trade, they pick up a great backup PF which allows Kobe to play at the 3 and adds big man depth. The only cost is a player who would likely be pushed out of the rotation and a third string center.



Thoughts?

Well it makes no sense for the Bulls. They already have Dunleavy and Mc Dermott like you said so why bring in more shooting that cost what they are paying now for 2 players? Second the Bulls will want more than Young and Black for Gibson. Gibson is a solid piece off the bench. So they would want to package him with a player to get a star. Say like if Horford from the Hawks was available. Just pretending. Something like that. For the Lakers if the Bulls made that offer take it. They can have Kelly along with them.
