Chicago isn't extending Vooch.
I'd like him to be the Wood replacement.
He'd probably be a liability come the play-offs, but for the rest of the season, he'd at least make the Mavs better on the boards.
And if the Mavs get to face Denver, at the very least, there's a big body there to box-out and contest Jokic.

Both Wood and Vooch are expiring, so would the Bulls be interested in a 2 month trail for Wood? Wood might even get the number he wants with Chicago in FA. As for the Mavs, I would think Vooch knows despite his stats, he isn't going to get the pay he wants, or at least the years he would like (age factors in). A play-off run where he gets sidelined may result in plummeting expectations on his part and would accept a fair amount should the Mavs re-sign him.

Both can walk however and both teams could end up with nothing (and the salaries don't match anyway so)..

Expand the trade to include the likes of RB, THJ, Frank, McGee, a second rounder) with what the Bulls have? Derrick Jones and maybe Patrick Williams? Mix match and see what's fair, or get a third team to take on RB/THJ and get SRPs (or a first?) to send to Chicago.

Williams IMHo is Green in a big forward's body. He has the tools to be better than his current play, but is underperforming that some Bulls fans are getting impatient with him and calling him a bust (which he may very well be). But this kid, just like Green was, just lacks confidence. He is just 21 and can be a good role player still. But even in his current play, he'd get time on the Mavs as the Mavs basically have no quality bigs outside of Wood and Kleber.

Best case scenario, Mavs get Vooch, Patrick Wiliams and Derrick Jones Jr.
