Bulls To Send Hinrich, No. 17 To Wizards

Great trade for both teams. Bulls are going to be a top 3 team in the league next year...all they really have to do is sign Bosh and plug any other holes with the impresive cap space they have, or go for it all and sign 2 big name FA's. Either way, Chicago's going to be elit next season.

 

As for the Wizards...Hinrich is a nice player but unless the Wizards make some moves and become a playoff contending team, I don't think having a veteran role player with no untapped potential like Hinrich is worthwhile addition. He's a fantastic defender and good jumpshooter, but that's it (besides his relatively big contract and 0 upside). I like how they snatched the 17th pick, though. Who know, they might get lucky with that pick.

We need a veteran on the team. We have 4 draft picks this year, the majority of our team will be young and full of potential. Starting with John Wall, then the 17th, and then the 30th and 35th. We may even get some more later tonight, Ted wants draft picks.

I understand the Wizards need a veteran, but with his contract...eh. I don't know, I think I'm a bit biased in this trade because I feel that Hinrich is one of those PG's that plenty of contending teams could use to solidify their backcourt.

I don't see why the Wizards would stick Hinrich in as the backup point guard. He's easily a top three defensive guard in the NBA right now, and he deserves to start at the two.

 

I hope they buy him out, and he signs with us. Or...they pay us back (Caron for Kwame) by trading him to the Lakers.

 

I don't know what makes you even think the Wizards would buy out a serviceable player like Hinrich, his contract isn't even bad, 15 million over 2 years is extremely manageable.... guys like Hinrich don't get bought out.

  • 2 weeks later...

must suck being one of those players who just get notified that they got traded, and have to rearrange their schedule the next couple weeks and months into looking for a house and all that other stuff. like contacting your bank and phone company and stuff. not saying that hinrich will stay there or anything just putting myself in the situation...
