Bryan Colangelo Looking to sign and trade Bosh
To Bulls: Chris Bosh, Marcus Banks and Julian Wright
To Raptors: David West, Luol Deng and a draft pick
To Hornets: Ben Gordon or Kirk Hinrich and Tyrus Thomas (who is from Louisiana)
It rates out fairly even on the Trade Machine.
* If not New Orleans (Chandler is also an option), I could see Charlotte (Diaw, Radmonovic or Okafor being traded) or possibly Minnesota (if they want to part ways with Love, Jefferson, Cardinal, Brewer or Miller) as the third team along with the Bulls and Raptors.
Chris Bosh...Chicago Bulls!!!
bosh wish list bulls, heat, knicks, cavs, nets(say whatcha you wanna say but i think bosh has look at the possibility of joining them . they got harris a young stud pg, brook lopez, a nice big man who could help out with the boards. dalas, and thats it
I have to think Chicago would be a great fit for him. They have a nice young, a strong fan base, a big media market and lots of money making abilities.
Now, hoopshype is reporting that Chris Bosh can be had for a prime-time player, another starter and a 1st Round pick.
This trade has all three of those.
To Bulls: Chris Bosh, Marcus Banks and Julian Wright
To Raptors: David West (prime-time player), Luol Deng (another starter) and a 1st Round Pick
To Hornets: Tyrus Thomas (Louisiana kid) and Ben Gordon OR Kirk Hinrich OR Brad Miller
* BG7 and Hinrich could fit really nice with CP3 and Brad Miller would be a nice complimentary player, as well as a money saver, which they are trying to do.
I think this trade could work our nicely for all 3 teams involved.
Bulls make a lot of sense. Bosh has to find Bulls an attractive team to play on. D. Rose, big market, etc. Tyrus Thomas and a 1st would be base offer. It likely would take one more chip. Expiring contract, Deng or Hinrich likely being it. It would be best for Bulls if they didn't have to part with Deng in the deal. By getting Bosh, Thomas is completely expendable and a quality player. There's been a lot of talk. I think Chicago might very well be his destination.

In a radio interview, Bryan Colangelo expressed his desire to work a sign and trade with Chris Bosh because it would be beneficial for both parties. This makes sense because the Raptors are the only team who can offer him 6 years vs 5 and a 10.5% vs 8.5% increase in salary. Colangelo states that this could add up to a whopping 30 million dollar difference. So basically the sign and trade works for Bosh bc he could eventually pocket an extra 30 million and the Raptors because they can get talent in return. The problem is finding a partner that Bosh wants to play for who offers fair value in return. So the question is which team and who should Toronto get in return??? I personally think Chicago should strongly consider bc they could offer Thomas, Deng, and Miller's expiring contract,
