My dad was diagnosed with cancer today. I'll remember this day forever for the wrong reasons.

We were irrelevant with Butler and would have stayed that way.

Again what do we do with the billion pgs we have on the roster next year? We have turned into the Twolves post Garnett.

Where are all #TrustTheProcess folks at? You still feeling it?

This will be answered based on future perseverance with the 'process' not right now when its still all fantasy and imagining outcomes.

Look at this board in 2 years 60 games into the season, if people are posting in game threads, if there is discussion about the team.

Or if its a ghost town of apathy.

Many may hate it but Bulls had to start over or they would have been stuck in deeper ditch then they would have been with Butler in a couple years.
Positives:

Lavine was looking like a stud before his ACL, as long as he can still shoot he will be fine
Dunn, not sure what they see in him but now they got him and time to see what he can really do
The 7ft Finnish guy, I know nothing about him but he's supposedly a good shooter, we will see

Giving the 16th pick away is my only complain, but a big one

I give the trade a B+

Wolves are gonna be awesome

Sorry to hear about your dad.

Hope it works out. Had a cancer scare in my family last year.

Absolutely. I'm not happy with what the team got back for Butler + #16, but solidly prefer giving the new guys a chance (and probably bottoming out) to limping into the playoffs for another couple years, getting flattened by any team with any real championship aspirations, and then giving Jimmy a max contract at age 30 or watching him walk.

No way, Collins doesn't have a fraction of the skill level Markinnen has.

Charmin soft whose game will not translate in the NBA. He is a bust IMO. Collins will be great in Portland.

Collins looks like a dime a dozen physical big man. They'll probably be a big just as good who goes 10-20 picks later.

If you're gonna be bad.... might as well be bad while golden state runs the league for the next 5 years

KC reports that Boston wouldn't include #3 or next year's Brooklyn pick.

Maybe the market for Jimmy wasn't that great?

About damn time we set a direction. Embrace the tank baby!

Well the Bulls had Deng, Noah, Rose as up and coming players and future all stars. But that ended quickly.
