All of the NBA executives who spoke on the topic of Kobe Bryant's apparent trade demand mentioned two teams to which Bryant could be dealt: The Bulls and Suns.
ESPN's source says that Bryant has been looking at Chicago for the past month as a place he would like to continue his career.
Luol Deng, Ben Gordon, Adrian Griffin, and Victor Khryapa are mentioned as the principal parts of a potential Bulls offer. The Bulls also have the 9th overall pick in the upcoming draft.
This may be the best talent swap the Lakers could garner in a Bryant blockbuster.

Former Villanova basketball star Howard Porter died Sunday from injuries he sustained after he was found severely beaten in a Minneapolis alley last week.
Porter was drafted 32nd overall by the Bulls in 1971 and spent three seasons in Chicago.
The 58-year-old Porter was a probation officer for Ramsey County, but it was unclear whether the beating was connected to his job. Police said no one had been arrested and they had no suspects.
"The entire Villanova family is saddened by the news of Howard's death," Villanova coach Jay Wright said. "Howard provided so many Villanovans with thrills on the basketball court playing for Coach [Jack] Kraft. Since his playing days ended, he has been an outstanding role model for our current players and coaching staff.
