NO ONE here thought that.
We wanted a high LOTTO PICK AT LEAST.
WE GOT DESTROYED IN THIS TRADE. PERIOD.
We don't have the assets to rebuild.

They didn't have to trade him then.
Yeah they did. This is a sign of full on rebuild. Thank God.

That's true and if the Bulls are going to have a chance at a franchise changer, I have heard next year's draft has real studs at the top of the draft(although they say it for every draft). This can get ugly like the baby Bulls with multiple shots at the #1 pick for the next few years.
Kansas/Duke/NC/Kentucky kids will be working out for the Bulls a lot more the next few years.

Lavine didn't play defense for Thibs. Imagine what it will be like under Fred.

This was the trade I was hoping for, except giving away the 16th which was stupid

Not mad about this
Dunn struggled last year but PG can take time to adjust to the league
Zack is coming off an injury, but he can still shoot and has some point skills
Hopefully we get Monk at 7, and we start grabbing guys that fit into Fred's style.

As they should. This trade was horrible.

This is the large consensus of all my Wolves fan friends.
Literally on the level of a New York Knicks trade.

Rubio/Butler/Wiggins/Towns/Dieng. That should be enough for the playoffs in the West, especially if Utah and/or LAC fall off.
Chicago.......what are you thinking?
You could have just as easily posted this on the Minnesota board, bro.
I Legit pressed on the first link next to NBA Board and assumed this was on the General Board.
My apologies to the Chicago board, I don't troll like that.
Classy of you. Thanks.

I'll be so mad when we pick Collins.

Maybe the Bulls will package some of these PG's for some picks.

He'd better play PG, because all the ones we've got are trash.
