SuperSonics/Bulls Extremely Slammin' Trade

[SuperSonics]

Seattle Gives:
Kevin Durant
Jerryd Bayless
Kirk Hinrich
Weezy
Ben Wallace (FA)

Chicago Gives:
John Wall
Paul Pierce
Larry Hughes
Chicago Bulls 2011 First

SuperSonics Reasoning:
I accept. What this team really needed was a superstar. Durant will never be as good as Wall, with 2 TCs that had virtually nothing gained. I gave up an aging Weezy and Hinrich, which is fine. Pierce will help allieveiate the hole of Durant this season, and I can use the pick to trade for or sign somebody else when he walks ins FA. Petro can replace Weezy at PF. I will be a bit thin at PG, but that's why I brought Halperin from Europe, right?

Bulls Reasoning:
I hate to see Wall go, but I want to improve, and this makes my team much more solid. Bayless will hopefully improve and the other guys are solid youth also. Hinrich will do what he needs to do until he expires.

Love it for Seattle. KD never realized his true potential, and that Chicago 2011 1st might be good as Chicago has no power up front aside from Samb, and no other offensive options after KD.

[Indiana]

Seattle by far. Wall is a 19 year old averaging 21 ppg. Durant's made some improvements, but nothing big.

I am not going to disagree with anyone, I just wanted to deal, and I like what I got for my guys. I just didnt want to sit for years and not do anything, because I hate building a team by getting lucky in the lotto.

I think Seattle wins just because Wall is a superstud. But every single piece that Chicago got back, is either a nice piece or a very nice piece. Bayless isn't done developing and if you think Durant is, he isn't.

I believe you, but Wall had 2 great TCs in his first two seasons, the only player in the top 5 not a bust from the rather empty 09 draft. Really reminds me of Rose.

Yep, and if he ends up looking like Rose or better, i won't be surprised.

i think its a fair deal for both side. both get superstars. Durant will develop, he's only 20. N that wall kid whos only 19 is a dam stud already at the PG position. Like it a bit more for Seattle since PG'S dominate FBB. nonetheless Durant will develop into a superstar and Bayless will be a solid role player. and that chicago pick looks nice.
