    See me out on this one… Both teams need something that the other team can offer.. How do ya feel about this?

    Bulls Get:
    David Lee
    Monta Ellis

    Warriors Get:
    Carlos Boozer
    Luol Deng
    28th pick
    30th pick

    Bulls Probable Roster:
    PG: Rose
    SG: Ellis
    SF: Korver/Brewer
    PF: Lee
    C: Noah
    6th: Gibson
    7th: Asik
    8th: Korver/Brewer
    9th: Watson

    Then, they have a draft pick in the middle of the second round.. They can buy a pick and draft a guy like Malcom Lee, Nolan Smith, Norris Cole or whoever.. IMO, Malcom Lee is the perfect fit because he sures up the PG/SG spot as the 3rd guy at both spots. 

    Ellis gives them a legit scorer and a good defender.  The Boozer thing didnt work out well and they get a quatilty, hard worker at the PF spot and he will fit well with Noah.. Not to mention the Flordia background. Lee plays better without plays being run for him like Boozer needs. Rose and Ellis will make Korver look fantastic.. Another shooter with this team and they are fighting the Heat.

    Warriors Lineup:
    PG: Stephen Curry
    SG: Dorell Wright/Reggie Williams
    SF: Luol Deng
    PF: Carlos Boozer
    C: Andres Bedrins
    6th: Ekpe Udoh
    7th: Acie Law

    They would have 3 first rond picks and 1 second roud pick.. They could use thier lottery pick to snag a nice big to sure up the C spot or they could get Jimmer to be another Steph Curry to play behind and beside him.. The 28th pick could be used for Josh Selby, who is projected to be a Monta Ellis clone and the 30th pick to draft Jeremy Tyler to replace Bedrins one day. The second roud pick could be used to take a swing at Iman Shumpert. 

    With Boozer, they have a legit Pick-and-Roll guy to make Curry much more effective.  Boozer is also the answer to the "legit post player" that the Warriors have been searching for.  I feel like they have been looking for a way to get rid of Ellis without just giving him away.  In this trade, they do that.. With Deng, you have a guy who is going to help change the culture of a team with is defense and work ethic.  Bringing in the rookies, and this team could make a complete 180 within a year or 2… They could be playoff bound within in 2 years.. And, if Jimmer, Josh, and Jeremy pan out, you chould have a fantastic 3 guard rotation and a super athletic center..

     

    Probably a little farfetched but in my opinion, it helps both teams in the short, and long term..

    I feel like the Bulls defense will take a big drop here losing Deng and replacing him with Kover and picking up an undersized SG. I think that keeping Deng is more important then getting Ellis, I feel there are better fits out there then Ellis. Dorell Wright would be a better fit IMO long, athletic defender who can spread the floor with his three.

    Have you seen Korver’s defense?  He can’t start!  Ronnie Brewer is more of a defensive specialist, so I don’t see him starting either.

    scoring doesn’t have to come in the form of a starter,or even a all star caliber player,just another consistant scorer that can dribble drive,or post up. Its too much talent for them not to find a guy to fit in that role. He doesn’t even have to be a great defender,as long as he all in with the team d

    Their talent?? Get real man.. Monta is a horrible team player and DLee lucked into an All-Star game.. If they were worth more, they would have made the Warriors relevant this year…. They are good players but not worth much more than Boozer and Deng…

    The bulls don’t need a slasher like Monta. He plays the same way Rose plays. They need a mid range/perimeter shooter. Ellis would be very small at the 2 and he isn’t a great defensive player and David Lee is an abover average player whose numbers get boosted because he has played in on all offense teams. Neither is good defensively and that is what the Bulls take pride in and why they were so good this year. I would prefer to see them go after Andre Iguadala or bringing back Ben Gordon
