This lineup would win A LOT of games, and we'd have a ton of future cap space
White/Ayo
Giddey/Ball
Matas/Huerter
Flagg/PWill
Vuc/Collins
Smith, Terry, Carter, Phillips as deep bench, plus our 2nd round pick I guess.

Yes, please

Thats bad defensive starting lineup, you need to replace either White or Vucevic with capable defender, preferrably Vooch of course

I'd rather move Vuc and start Collins in this case

I don't think there is a line-up that won't have a defensive problem when starting Vuc. But gimme Flagg and I'll deal with watching Vuc for another season.

No they should not. They can just draft Collin Murray-Boyles if they wanted to add a Zion-like effect to the offense. I'd rather they not trade for Zion and add someone who'd fit better next to Giddey, Coby, and Matas.

Carter Bryant, Derik Queen, or Asa Newell to name a few.

To say Collin Murray-Boyles would add a Zion-like effect to the offense is insane. Thats like saying a Honda Civic has the same horsepower as a Lambo.

Apologies for not being clearer. I simply meant a ball dominant F/C whose scoring is entirely revolved around attacking the paint and not much else. I bet their shot charts are pretty similar if not nearly identical. If the Bulls wanted to add a ball dominant player who attacks the rim relentlessly, they can just draft CMB.

How many times do I have to say his playstyle, not necessarily Zion himself.
