Da Bulls need to make a trade!

Now, the Chicago Bulls have loss their first three games of the season and maybe now GM John Paxson will pull the trigger on the trade for Kobe Bryant. I'm tired of everyone arguing that Luol Deng is the next coming of a superstar. For one you have a player who can't create his own shot and never attacks the basket. Nevertheless, Deng is a player who looks like a robot on the court, he lacks the fluid natural athletic ability of players such as Kobe Bryant, Tracy McGrady and Lebron James. I understand Deng is young but sorry fans he has reached his peak. Kirk Hinrich is another player who has reached his peak. I understand the Bulls success started after drafting Kirk Hinrich, he also is a player who lacks heart and the aggressive mentality to lead a team to the finals. Ben Gordon is a player I really like. Yeah, maybe he Gordon lacks defense and ball skills that will allow him to be a good point guard in the NBA. Gordon is the only player on the team who can create his own shot and score in bunches. How many stars play defense in the NBA?

Their is not one player on the Bulls who is a franchise player. How could John Paxson not be willing to trade a bunch of average players how need each other to be successful for a player like Kobe Bryant who is a superstar in his prime. Bryant not only will make the Bulls a better team but he will also add some life into a city who can't let Michael Jordan go. The main problem is John Paxon. Not only have John Paxson over valued the players he drafted but he has yet to realize a team can't win a title if they have no true leader.
