I think it would be awesome if we could land Gordon. Our season is slipping down the crapper in a hurry. After going on a 17-1 tear to put us in first place in our division and in good playoff position, we have gone 6-11 since and lost 4 straight by big amounts. I really doubt this bad streak has anything to do with us losing James Jones so something needs to be done to save this season without forfeiting our core.
I am ready to give up on Martel Webster and Jarrett Jack. We have Travis Outlaw who is equally as young and has better skills at this point so we don't even need Webster. He has serious confidence issues and a team battling for a playoff spot can't be babying certain players.
Jarrett Jack has become obsolete with the steady play of Blake and the flashy energizer Sergio so we don't need him or his streaky shooting anymore. Plus I would like to see us play Taurean Green more. I think he could develop quickly into a servicable PG (at least more than Jack has.)
And for the hell of it, throw in Raef LaFrentz. Let LaMarcus Aldrige play PF full time and have Channing Frye and Joel Pryzbilla platoon at Center. Whenever Aldrige needs a break, slide Frye to PF and put in Pryzbilla. Should an injury hit, I wouldn't mind seasoning Josh McRoberts a bit. He was a standout at Duke so he must have something to offer in there.
Anyway, if the Bulls would be willing to part with Ben Gordon for Webster, Jack, and LaFrentz I say go for it. Having Gordon and Roy as a back court would rock hard. and with Aldrige and Oden next year, those 4 plus Outlaw on the wing can seriously take us far. All out starter will be young, very talented, and seasoned with the exception of Oden.
