Bulls Trade Talk

Apparently the Bulls are in early talks with the Wizards about Caron Butler. The early proposed trade is Butler and Mike James expiring deal for Hinrich and Jerome James expiring deal.

As a Bulls fan I would do this in a heart beat! I love Hinrich, but Butler solves our problem long term at the two or at least for the next few years. Butler can score, defend, and is unselfish. He's really just a better and taller version of Kirk. The only downside of course, is that Hinrich is the backup PG as well as the starting SG. But I think VDN can find someone to play point for 12 minutes a game. Give Pargo a chance he's dying to get into the game.

Anyway I hope the Bulls do something, and this would be a big something. In this scenario the Bulls still have FA money for the summer, but I wouldn't mind if they then tried to get a guy like David West or some other PF if one comes available at the deadline. A team with Rose, Butler, Deng, PF? and Noah would be pretty tough this year, and really tough in a year or two!
