Guest California Dreamin' Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 In a deal with the Bulls, Washington would be interested in Kirk Hinrich and the expiring contract of Jerome James. Do it, Bulls! We need a more creditable source. http://www.mikejonessports.com/2010/01/startling-picture-starting-to-become.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWaLL Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 [expletive] that, we could do way better than Hinrich... and he isn't even an expiring. We need big expirings and Jerome James does not suffice if we're giving away Mike James as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bravenewworld Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Hinrich is too good of a person and player to be in DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poe Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Sounds like a reasonable trade. Bulls need offense on the wings, and Hinrich can bring some good things to the table for the Wizards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 especially if Arenas is out of the long-term picture for the Wizards...Hinrich can give them a solid PG and Butler's position can be filled by Nick Young/Dominic McGuire or one of the other 2-3 swingmen the Wizards have.

B-Marsh>R-Moss Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Butler is the better finisher and slasher, but Hinrich is the better shooter and defender. I'd personally stick with Hinrich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd personally stick with Hinrich.You honestly think Hinrich is worth the same value or more as Butler...? We deserve at least a 1st round pick from the Bulls if this goes down.

Poe Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 I think Hinrich is possibly even MORE valuable than Butler. He's easily a much better defender, and some even believe he's one of the better perimeter defenders of the decade. He's had a couple off years offensively, but if he can push his way out of his slump, he could be nearly as valuable as Caron is on the offensive end.

Owner Real Deal Posted January 5, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 I'm not sure if you guys would be able to do any better at this point. Butler has been so inconsistent this year, and he's coming from a team that's not impressive and still looking for a leader (and the most likely leader is Jamison). People blast Hinrich for not being able to defend Kobe Bryant. Well...uh, yeah...nobody can. If you want a very good defensive player and a smart combo guard that can actually run an offense, unlike Arenas, you take Hinrich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWaLL Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 He's definitely a good pickup, but I feel like we could get more than just Hinrich and an expiring Jerome James. If they threw in a 1st round pick then maybe I'd be ok with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 A first round pick would make this a lopsided trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted January 5, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Chicago's first-rounder would be mid-first, so you're talking Pittman, Cousins, Aldrich or Monroe (depending on how those guys rise and fall throughout the year). I doubt they go for that. And a future first wouldn't give Washington much, as I'm still a believer that Wade will be in Chicago next season.

bravenewworld Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Personally i would love to see Hinrich go to the Bulls, i think he would be perfect for their system. But this argument over value.. Pros: Two seasons ago Hinrich was at the same level as Tony Parker, he was overlooked and ignored (ironically this is the same time period when the Bulls were beating Miami). He is not a full time leader but he has a very high basketball IQ that can apply and make up for a lack of leadership. He is at best a 17ppg 8ast guy who is not just a sub SG, but actually knows how to play both SG and PG and can be a great defender at both positions... he can even defend the 3 in many cases. He is fairly young and in about 2-3 seasons he will be entering the prime of his career, the perfect mix of knowledge and body strength. He also seems to be able to adapt to almost any system he is given. Cons: He is iffy. If the team is having a bad year, he will have a bad year. If the team is having a great year, he will have a great year. He is not a first leader, he is a secondary leader aka follower. I may have condensed things a bit but that really is a pretty bad con.
