Sam Smith is the only guy with Bulls information? Are you being serious here? So many people hear things. Sam Smith is a good guy, has gotten a lot of hate in the past, but all he was doing was expressing his opinion and reportedly what he knows.Quote:

I'm just trying to understand why you recognize just Sam Smith. Sam Smith is a good guy but it's the way you said it. Bulls are one of the most private teams especially after the Deng/Kobe incident, but there are multiple sources who have reported what they heard.

Because Sam Smith has worked for the organization and at least has ties to the organization. That's why. You have nothing, just like everybody else. And that includes Sam Smith because that bloke doesn't know what he's talking about the majority of the time.
One thing I'll correct here:Quote:

Yeah, it was in the Sun Times about four days before it happens, and it was that the Bulls were considering trading him after it was pretty clear his option was not going to be exercised. No one ever sees the big moves coming with this organization, and there's a reason. There are no real Bulls insiders.Quote:

Well the real reason is the Bulls rarely ever make big moves but I agree with what you're saying.

I know they tried trading Deng during this year's draft, but what about moving in the Top 5 of the 2013 draft by packaging Deng, Bobcats Pick, & Bulls 2013 Pick and select one of Muhammad or Poythress.
Shabazz is kind of playing like *** right now. I think our magical year is going to be 2014. We're all just going to have to sit tight until then (unless a certain PF becomes available via trade in the meantime).Quote:
