T'was the night before the National Basketball League trade deadline and all through the league, not a creature was stirring, not even David Khan.
This NBA trade deadline is probably going to be more predictable than most years because the major deals seem to have been done already. Monday, Carmelo Anthony was traded to the Knicks and today, Deron Williams was dealt to the New Jersey Nets in an unexpected move.
In terms of the Bulls, they made a minor move yesterday sending James Johnson to the Toronto Raptors for Miami's 1st round pick this year. James Johnson then went on to lead the Raptors to an upset win over the Bulls today. Great timing there. The Bulls are said to be in talks with the Rockets and Grizzlies for OJ Mayo and Courtney Lee. I personally wouldn't go wrong with either player. Think Courtney Lee is a better fit but OJ Mayo has more upside. I think the Bulls do need to make a move though at this point especially since they got that extra pick in the James Johnson trade. Look for a post later tonight as I will be blogging all day about the rumors and trades as they happen from the Bulls and the NBA.
Merry NBA Trade Deadline Day to you all.
