Bulls and Blazers in trade talks

The Portland Trail Blazers are in an intense search to find a point guard, and they’re interested in one on the Chicago Bulls. The Blazers have offered Forward Travis Outlaw and Center Joel Przybilla to Bulls in exchange for Kirk Hinrich and possibly a future draft pick. The Bulls are mildly interested in the deal, but are still reluctant to trade Hinrich. The Bulls are trying to see if the Blazers have any interest in Ben Gordon instead, that of course if Gordon is interested in accepting a deal to go to the Blazers. Outlaw, a five year veteran, averaged 13.3 points and 4.6 rebounds per game last season. Przybilla, an eight year veteran, averaged 4.8 points and 8.4 rebounds per game last season.

Tech9 is a very good source. He reported the Wallace/Hughes trade discussions months before the trade went through.

That would absolutely be a terrible. If KP actually did that, we take away the phrase pritchslap forever.

Re: Bulls and Blazers in trade talks
Well with having a Memphis trade rumor for Outlaw maybe there is something to these rumors. I think both the Memphis and this rumor are both bad trades for the Blazers. I just can't believe KP would do these trades. I just think trading Joel without at least seeing Oden play one game is something KP wouldn't do. We would have way to many PG's and short on SF's with either trade and unless there is another trade I just don't think it makes sense for the Blazers.

Re: Bulls and Blazers in trade talks
I have long said the Kirk Hinrich would be a target of KP's. He played for KP's alma mater and seems to need a change of scenery to help his growth. I'm starting to think that Nate might just run a big 3 gaurd lineup and just have Oden and LaMarcus clog up the middle. My only gripe is that I think Pryzbilla is a better fit for this team than Frye is but both are good players in their own rights and they contribute to the game in different ways, that said I would do this trade and maybe even throw in some of those 2nd round picks we have stocked up.

Re: Bulls and Blazers in trade talks
As a Bulls fan, I like this trade, but we really don't need depth. What are Outlaw ad Przybilla's strength and weaknesses?

Re: Bulls and Blazers in trade talks
Oh I'm sure, and I don't doubt that talks between the two might have gone on before the draft, and even until now. But I don't see an actual deal going down. Not at all.

Oh ok. From the rumors I've read, it seems as if Outlaw is on his way out for a PG.

Re: Bulls and Blazers in trade talks
Ugh, seriously. This looks to be pulled out of thin air. I honestly have NO clue why the Blazers would pull the trigger on this trade. It makes no sense if you take into account what the balance amongst positions would be if that went through:
Hinrich/Blake/Sergio
Roy/Rudy/Bayless
Webster/Batum
Aldridge/Frye/Diogu
Oden/LaFrentz
It just enthralls me a lot less than what we already have. Przybilla and Outlaw are CRUCIAL for the success of that second unit. We are FINE at point guard right now, so this trade really makes no sense to me.

Re: Bulls and Blazers in trade talks
This better be just a rumor. KP couldn't possibly be giving up our SF, but mainly Joel Pryzbilla. An opportunity to have excellent interior defense 48 min a game, for HINRICH. ANOTHER PG. That would bring it up to 6 people who can play PG. If this is somehow legit, then it'll be KPs first bad trade. Oden needs Joel when he'll for SURE get in foul trouble early on. KP don't let it be.

Re: Bulls and Blazers in trade talks
Wait until we see Oden for a month or two Mr. Pritchard -- Please! Last thing we need is Channing as our starting and backup center! I might do Lafrentz and Outlaw for Hinrich swap in February. Only IF Hinrich picks up his game this year. Hinrich played horrible last year which could be attributed to injury, sluggishness or just poor chemistry with an out of synch Bulls team. Whatever the reason, lets see how things play out. Besides, Pritchard isn't stupid enough to trade two bigs for one small.
