This off-season had a lot of roster movement throughout the entire NBA. For once, the eastern conference took some of the star power away from the western conference.

The Chicago Bulls are one of these teams. They raided the Utah Jazz when Carlos Boozer and Kyle Korver made Chicago their new home.

Okay, if you read bullshome.com, we know this stuff. Lets get to the point. All of the rebuilt teams are being questioned for their free agency pickups. Hoopsworld.com thinks the Bulls are the only team to have these pre-season questions as the site shares  their doubt in Chicago’s quest for elite status in the eastern conference. .

Coming out of Kansas University, he was selected with the seventh overall pick in the 2003 season and then played seven seasons in Chicago. While other players selected the same year as him, Linton Johnson and Ronald Dupree,  and many after, Tyrus Thomas at the top of the list, did nothing to help the Bulls, Hinrich was an every game contributor who made the team better.

The Bulls sent Kirk Hinrich and the 17th pick in the 2010 draft to the Washington Wizards for a future second round pick.

This move makes the Bulls the winner of the draft.  The Washington Wizards and the Philadelphia 76ers got two great players in John Wall and Evan Turner, but they will be rookies who are young and inexperienced in the NBA.
