The short of it is, giving up Gooden, Hughes, and Tyrus Thomas, the Bulls get Craig Smith and Joel Przybilla.

Why the Bulls do it:

Craig Smith and Przybilla would be a nice front court with high energy and efficiency. The money works out so there's room to resign Gordon.

Why Minnesota does it:

They basically swap Mike Miller for Larry Hughes, upgrading their play-making and saving some cash/

Why Portland does it:

In a way, this would be a bit of a risky move, but the Blazers get Mike Miller and Drew Gooden without sacrificing 2010 free agency. They're looking for veterans who can spread the floor and complement Roy/Oden, and I think these two help them.

Whaddya think?
