Obi to Bulls 

Post#1 » by pipfan » Sun Jun 1, 2025 2:10 pm

Indy sends Obi to Chi along with #23 for the Port pick
Indy saves a ton of money, and frees up minutes for Walker next year. They also add a future pick (should be about a #18 pick in 2026-28)

Bulls start Obi at PF, and he fits well with Giddey/White/Matas. They still draft Newell at #12 and give him time to develop.

White/Ayo
Giddey/Ball/Terry
Matas/Huerter/PWill
Obi/Newell at #12/Phillips
Vuc (still try to deal him)/Collins/JSmith
draft Beringer or Wolf at #23

Buyout Carter for the final roster spot.

Why even swap #23 and POR 1st?

If IND decides to save money by moving Toppin into some teams NTMLE, I doubt they'll need to offer up draft compensation of any kind, even this swap
In a no-win argument, the first poster to Let It Go will at least retain some peace of mind

The Port pick is in exchange for the #23
Could be Obi for #45 or a future Bulls' 2nd
