A different source said the Bulls were exploring sign-and-trade possibilities that could send Kyle Korver to the Minnesota Timberwolves or Atlanta Hawks, although his return to the Bulls hasn’t been ruled out.

The decision to pick up Korver’s $5 million option for next season doesn’t have to be made until Sunday.

Edit: And how is Stackhouse worth 1.3 million? Aren't there a legion of D-leaguers out there who can at least run the floor?

I have to say I would be shocked if Dwight came to LA. No way he wants to step into the shadow cast by the greatest centers ever. He could be traded to the Nets, blow his back out in training camp, never play one min of basketball with the team and be the best center they ever had

But he could do so much with the lakers that just won't happen with the nets. It's just a fact that LA is by far the more successful franchise. In the long run he'd have a better shot at winning in Los Angeles, but hey maybe he doesn't care about that so much

Dwights not the brightest chap though. Course if he just wanted recognition he could stay in ORL.

3's is actually really excellent. Don't judge 3 based on 4.

Also Benjamin didn't even have that great a record when he was with the Nets. Didn't he put up his best season with the Clips? Or was it with the Sonics?

The key pieces with the Nets are younger then the ones with the Lakers. On that basis alone, it makes more sense for D12 to go to the Nets over the Lakers if winning is the goal.

The problem of course is D12 himself doesn't seem to know WTF he wants, so how the hell should we?

On a related note...

@KBergCBS Neither Andrew Bynum nor his agent has been contacted by any team to gauge his interest in signing a long-term deal if traded, source says.
So while there's four teams out there trying to get a mind-changing, management murdering, PR nightmare diva coming off back surgery, nobody seems to care all that much about Bynum at the moment. Just some food for thought.

That's because everyone know Bynum is a mercenary put a max contract in front of him and he'll sign it on paper, an iPad, a speak'n'spell whatever. He just wants to get paid.

The fact that it is a trade and not him going as a free agent means doesn't really matter what the key pieces are..

Benoit Benjamin was a joke. He was about as average as average can be when he played for the Nets.

Dwight + Deron + Joe obviously has a longer shelf life than Dwight + Kobe + Nash.

The story is objectively terrible. The writing is flat out bad. I know the general story beats from 3, from being on the internet for my entire adult life.

4 is actually my favorite game in the series, because the gameplay and scenarios are awesome. But on my second playthrough (yeah, I played it twice), I was just skipping the cutscenes.

Reality. Which is that several teams would have to go out of their way to send Dwight to NYC or LA, and it would be better for 28 other teams if that didn't happen.

Miles has 16-7 against Sullenger, Noel and Sean Williams. He's had a decent summer league and might be a decent bench player for the Pacers once he actually gets in NBA shape juices .

Doing better than Drummond anyway.
