For argument's sake...

I'm having a discussion with a Laker fan about this trade idea. What's your guys take? And yes, it works under the cap.

Lakers trade
Caron Butler
Kareem Rush
Rick Fox
Luke Walton
Brain Cook

Bulls trade
Eddy Curry
Eddie Robinson
Jannero Pargo

This trade heavily favors the Lakers.

It is basically Caron Butler for Eddy Curry

 

[slinslin]

Bulls would never do that.

 

[George O'Brien]

Bulls would never do that.

A more interesting question is whether they would do it for Chandler.

I agree with you and slin that Chicago probably would not do that deal, but I don't think it is really that lopsided. Robinson has a horrible contract. It's worse than Howard Eiseley's, and he contributes about as much. Rick Fox is better, and his contract is a year shorter and about $10 million less. Pargo is nothing. In fact they would have to sign and trade him.

Butler, Walton, Rush, and even Brian Cook have good value.
