New Destination for Gordon?
With Ben Gordon and the Bulls at an impasse of what his long term value to the franchise is, there have been several rumors floating around. Gordon has said that he won't sign the one year tender offer (approximately $6M) from the Bulls and would prefer to play overseas, preferably getting one of those Josh Childress deals. Gordon feels that he should be paid in line with his fellow teammate, Luol Deng ($80M range) by using the argument that he has been the leading scorer on the Bulls over the past three years and he should be compensated for that. Now we have an article in the Salt Lake Tribune discussing the option of a trade with the Utah Jazz. I'm not sure that the Jazz could pull this off. I mean the only two players the Bulls could want from them are Boozer AND Deron Williams. Deron just re-upped and Boozer is probably off limits. The only other piece that may intrigue Bulls fans is Andrei Kirilenko. A possible Kirilenko and Ronnie Brewer for Gordon and some change? Not sure that I'd do that. What do you think the Bulls should do with Ben Gordon?
