    Lebron to Dallas and Melo to Chicago. That's what I'd like to see.

    Had the Heat Big 3 not got together, I would have liked to see Wade in Chicago. Although Rose and Wade would have had the worst backcourt knees in the NBA.

    I dont know why everyone sees Melo on the Bulls. I just cant picture it.

    Maybe if they had Wade to help shoulder offensive burden from D. Rose, Thibs wouldn't have needed to run Derrick into the ground. Keeping him in game 1 of the 2012 1st round when the game was clearly in our hands.

    If Wade truly is "washed up" and LeBron runs somewhere else to another stacked deck to attempt to win championships. Dwyane shouldn't suffer in Miami alone. He should go home to Chicago, and use his experience to help guide Chicago.

    It's quite easy. Melo provides elite volume scoring. Something the Bulls haven't had since D. Rose went down. He's been underrated defensively the past two seasons as well.

    And if Thibs can cover up Boozer's defensive inadequacies, and lack of effort ... a guy who doesn't give you the upside of 25+ ppg scoring consistently every night like Melo can. How can he not fit into their system? He fits what Chicago needs like a damn glove.

    If by some grace of the lawd Derrick Rose comes back and even remotely resembles his old self, Melo helps spread the floor. He can catch, and shoot the rock. They will both help each other offensively.

    This lineup:

    G - Rose
    G - Wade
    F - Butler
    F - Melo
    C - Noah

    6th man: Taj Gibson

    Would love to see a team run half an offense through Gortat.

    I just realized Doc Rivers is the President of Basketball Operations now. There is no doubt that Paul Pierce is going to the Clippers then. Too perfect of a fit considering the need of a SF, Doc's relationship with Pierce, plus returning to LA.

    I also think the Knicks will sign Ariza.

    Deng will probably end up in Dallas, and the Hawks can sign Evan Turner after he gets renounced by the Pacers.

    Note: I didn't list players that are obviously staying put like Dirk/Duncan or restricted guys who aren't realistically gonna leave.
    This would be ideal.
