I think that's a mistake if they do that.

Aldridge is a good pick for the Bulls.

what's the story behind this? I think it's something like ...

1. dinosaurs hire an italian for an assistant GM position
2. now the dinos are going to draft a player from the assistant gm's old team
3. bad idea

The freaking team needs size. Give them someone that's any bit of a low post threat, it'll open up all sorts of shooting opportunities for Kirky and Benny

I didn't know they had a new asst gm, and the italian guy is from his old team. That makes it a bad idea x eleventy billion. I was just figuring he could turn out like Darko.

yeah...the Warriors need size too.

Apparently the AGM saw him play before and stands by him. I heard the club was looking at him before the hiring. The Raptors played an exhibition not too long ago against big man and he did very well.

Jordan made a great pick...Morrison was still around.

Rudy Gay = Memphizzle

The Bulls and Blazers have agreed to swap draft picks, a league source told ESPN.com.

The Bulls will send the No. 2 pick to the Blazers for the No. 4 pick and Viktor Khryapa. Because the trade was consummated after the 2 p.m. ET trade moratorium, the trade cannot be announced until after both teams have picked.

The Bulls selected LaMarcus Aldridge for Portland and the Blazers chose the pick for Chicago -- Tyrus Thomas.

Aldridge is the guy the Blazers wanted all along and had him ranked as the top player on their board. Blazers fans are going to go crazy when they find out that Portland passed on Adam Morrison, but I understand the inclination. Why spend millions of dollars on scouting to have the fans make your selection? They think Aldridge is the best player on the board and they might be right.

Thomas has been high on the Bulls board all year. However, their indecision between Thomas and Aldridge made the Blazers nervous. The trade works out great for Chicago. They get the guy they wanted and pick up an interesting asset in Khryapa.
