Bulls Get: Shawn Marion & Will Bynum
Warriors Get: Trevor Ariza, 2013 CHI 3rd round pick & 2014 CHI 1st and 3rd round picks
I have 2 reasons for doing this trade. I have a gaping hole at PF/C and I am looking to lower future salary commitments.
I think Marion is a very undervalued player who can fill my holes in my lineup whilst being able to shift over to SF as necessary. Will Bynum is a bench player for me who provides me some depth incase I lose a PG and/or Derrick Rose takes longer to come back.
The second part of my thinking behind the trade is to get rid of Ariza's bad contract. I need to create some cap room for future seasons and he seemed the best player to move. I realise I may have had to slightly overpay to complete this deal. However it is a price I am willing to pay.
