Get DeRozan gone first then worry about Zach.

Honestly , I don’t believe these rumors.

Bulls are not giving up a FRP to dump Zach for a bad player/contract. If that were the case, you sit him and Billy down and tell them to grow a pair, and to forgot about the last 2 seasons and play with Giddey at PG.

At this point, it’s getting pretty simple. You just consider Zach a Bull. I don’t really care if he doesn’t like Billy.

Yeah if there is any truth to the rumors I agree with this. This has honestly turn into offensive territory.

I also dont agree with rumors. Something is off. If pick was attached it was likely pick from Portland which will never convert to be 1st. And I wouldnt even mind Bulls trading that pick. Blazers were never ever planning giving us that pick even when Lillard was there.

But this is telling about league and media being disrespectful to Bulls. I mean they kind of deserve it. It's terrible front office. But I feel because AKME runs really tight ship about leaking information, I think media is just trying make Bulls look bad for not giving them sources and information coming from organization.

Which is why we see more reports about whats happening with Zach directly coming from Klutch than our own front office.

league's perception of zach's value is just straight-up out of whack, imo. it can't get any worse than this, so you gotta just take the time to see if you can rebuild his value

Have a hard time believing the Bulls would accept Wiggins in a trade. He has 3 years left and played like crap last year plus only played half a season the year before last.

I'm not sure I believe that. Zach may have a bad reputation, but it's not worse than Wiggins. I'd say Haynes (who isn't the most reliable with breaking stories) has the team who proposed the deal the other way around. I just can't fathom that the Warriors would decline that deal, and then proceed to waive Paul. I'd say it was the Warriors last ditch effort to get something out of Paul, and it was the Bulls that declined, with them saying, fine, we tried, and then proceeded to waive Paul.

They used the term "centered around" Bulls probably wanted picks.

Haynes is a Bay Area guy. I mostly trust him to get Warriors intel right.

I have a hard time squaring that with reports that the Bulls have proposed 15 Zach trades with no takers (KC) and are willing to attach a 1st (Marks).

Or he’s that terrible

Honestly who is actually to blame if we cant trade Zach?

Is it the media that has been painting this bad light on Zach? It can't be all his play because I have seen players much worse get traded.

It makes no logical sense for the bulls to have attached a first. No chance that is accurate.

And it never said that the bulls offered 15 trades.

Maybe it's an NBA thing but there is a ton of just people throwing things out there that doesn't seem to have much to it.

Bulls media is the biggest group of eeyores I have ever seen. Seeps into the fan base.

From K.C. Johnson:

“Everything is on the table,” Karnišovas said in April... It’s why Zach LaVine’s future isn’t the only trade scenario that has been discussed, even if sources said Karnišovas has floated as many as 15 proposals centered on the two-time All-Star guard to various teams including the Sacramento Kings, Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers.

You'd think this would light a fire under Zach, reports are nobody in the league wants him unless they get some sort of value back or don't have to give up much value.

Teams either don't want him due to his play, injury history or don't believe he's worth his contract.

Surely you'd want to prove people wrong.
