So LaMarcus Aldridge turns into Cameron Payne?

Or I guess you can say Eddy Curry.

Is Joff a better fit for Hoiball than Doug? Does Hoiball even exist?

The only player I want on OKC is Westbrook.

You know what, I am actually happy for Taj. A get out of jail free card, he deseves to be on a good team. A great player for the Bulls for many years, never complained. He deserved better then the Bulls and its great for him.

Well, they gave up pretty fast on Doug

And people think this FO can build around Butler before he opts out of the last year of his contract.

On the flip side... I'd like to see what a defensive team with Butler on it could do.

Sounds like the Bulls are just going to make a move to make a move and say they did something. Figures.

Not as fast as the people on this forum.

I think it's a big mistake to trade Doug away.

haha nice back pedal.

If the FO is smart, they are trying to build an elite defensive team and just have Butler drag the offense to mediocrity.

The fact that we are in trade talks with OKC is just flat out ridiculous. There's no major player we would want except for Westbrook and obviously they are not gonna trade him for Doug. If they keep failing trades like this, I predict Butler will run away from the Bulls and join the Lakers or Boston. There's 0 reason for Butler to stay in this treadmill team.

You make the team worse this season - basically give up on it - and in return add a mid to late first that they can throw away on another Doug/Niko/Teague/Snell draft miss, and some more scrubs who can't shoot...

Not sure that Payne isn't Teague 2.0...

I don't think OKC can give up a 1st until 2022 based on the 1st rounders they've traded over the next couple of years. Might need a 3rd team involved.

So the Kings pick thread will be replaced by the OKC thread.

Thanks! Odd to build a defensive roster with the coach they have.

We should try to snag Joerger.
