Tech Hot Rumor
Stoudemire to Bulls Update
02.09.09 | No Comments

As we all know, the Bulls and Suns have had lengthy discussions about a possible trade that would send All Star big man Amare Stoudemire to Chicago. The Bulls are very much in the running to land Stoudemire, as GM John Paxson is willing to package just about any deal with mutliple players involved to get him, except for Derrick Rose of course. One scenario that is very possible and has been discussed the most would be a deal that would send Drew Gooden, Tyus Thomas, Thabo Sefoloshia and a 1st round pick to the Suns in exchange for Stoudemire. However, Steve Kerr would like Joakim Noah added to the deal as well. Phoenix will continue to talk with other teams to see if they can either find a better deal, or wait and see if the Bulls will add Noah to the trade. The Bulls want Stoudemire so much, that adding Noah may just happen. Even then, the ball will still be in the Suns court as they have multiple teams to work with and several deals to weigh out, the highest bidder will win.

It is interesting that this is called Hot Rumor, not only rumor or news.

Please make it happen Pax. :jam2:

Suns would get really much talent with Thomas, Sefolosha and Noah. Also Gooden. After this trade the Bulls will only have 11 players. Aren't 12 needed?

I read an article recently (http://realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/ ... for_amare/" rel="nofollow" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) saying that the Suns want Hinrich in a deal for Amare. So they supposedly want Gooden's expiring contract, Kirk Hinrich, and Tyrus Thomas in the deal. However, if that deal went down, then the Suns would have to throw someone else in to the deal in order for it to work out. Therefore I propose a trade that has us trading Joakim Noah as well, but getting back Grant Hill and Robin Lopez in addition. The Bulls would likely have to throw in a first round pick for that one to work. Another deal would have Noah taken out and have it be Thomas, Gooden, and Hinrich for Amare and Robin Lopez, which I feel is more likely for Phoenix to do.

Last week I was really confident that a Bulls get Stoudemire trade would happen.

But now? After these rumors about Paxson I'm a bit uncertain about this trade situation.

Let us hope that the Bulls get a good player the one way or an other.
