You could put this in a FanPost, because it’s your idea. It was a little confusing in the FanShots, because my first impression was that it was a reported rumor, and not just a trade idea.

As Section pointed out on the front page, the easy way to remember is that if it’s your original idea, put it in FanPosts, but if you’re just passing something along that you found (a link, quote, video, picture, etc.), use the FanShots.

As for your proposal itself, I don’t know that I’d start Hughes, and I’m not sure that Greene would be ahead of Butler on the depth chart, but it would definitely open a LOT of minutes in the front court.

My bet is that it would be met with great disdain at Blog-A-Bull and Atthehive.

New Orleans has a weak bench, and all you are offering them is Gooden, who would be land locked behind David West. The Hornets need bench help on the wings, and that’s just not Bobby Jackson at this point.

The Bulls give up rotation guys Gooden and Hughes, and youngster Thomas for Miller. If I were the Bulls and were willing to give up this much, I’d be Chris Kaman hunting.

Missed the welcome wagon.

of this trade. Larry Hughes is horrific but a nice expiring.

But brads already a nice expiring and at least you can run the offence through him. Larry is the killer of offensive flow. He never met a shot he didn’t like. Especially playing with a guy like kmart. His D is not great either. Don’t forget to factor in that he is also essentially a shooter who can’t actually shoot and thinks he should be the man. there is no way Larry passes up shots to give the ball to rookies.

I’d think you could get more for B52. The fact that he is expiring and can actually play the middle in limited minutes especially on a team that needs a 3rd big to timeshare pf/c is a lot more attractive than Larry Hughes.

If you had to choose between Larry as an expiring or Brad who do you think most teams would move for?

If it was just trading amongst blogs it would probably happen, Anything that gets Larry Freaking Hughes out of blogabull would not be met with disdain. Even to the point that once upon a time golden child Tyrus “i could have been larmarcus aldridge” Thomas may well be bid farewell.

If the aim of the exercise is to open minutes up and nothing more than its a great trade scenario. A resounding success. I am of the opinion however that you might be able to pry a little more away from someone else. However i am not in a position to actually put thought, effort and time into finding out who so hats off, you are a better man than I :)
