Nikola Vučević and Al-Farouq Aminu traded to Chicago for Wendell Carter Jr and 2021/2023 1st Round Picks

Shams says the Bulls 2021 1st is Top 4 protected.

Great deal. If we don't get a top 3-4 pick, this gives us a tool for a decent offer to trade up.

I’m still just stunned that WeHam is going full firesale. I was more expecting them going the opposite direction. I wouldn’t of been surprised at the end of the day if our starting 5 was looking like Fultz/Smart/DeRozan/Isaac/Vuc, but nope, scorched earth.

Two second rounders for Fournier ... We don't use 2nd rounders.

[thelead]

Until I see otherwise, those are lotto protected picks in my mind.

So we have to hope they don't make the playoffs and that they don't get a top 4 pick to get any value out of this deal? Yeah, still don't like it. But whatever, I don't expect much from this FO

This team is in desperate need of a rebuild. Hopefully we can get lucky with these picks

Ship out Fournier and Gordon today too. And someone please show Steve Clifford the way out. Fire up the tank we need Cade, Green, or Suggs bad

Bulls are 2 games away from 8th seed and have 7th easiest remaining schedule in nba, this won't be lottery pick anyway.

[shadrock]

have to imagine if Vuc quietly was one of the players who shared "frustration with all the losing" and asked out.

He is literallyt THE reason we suck. Get his ass out of here. Hope Fournier is next.

[KillMonger]

I Love it.....i would've been fine with Vuc still here but i'm with the rebuild.....let's collect assests baby.....when you got options it's the best position to be in

[Viper1500]

Good trade and makes certain that we are getting a top 5 pick this year.

This is a good return. I doubt we could have got one of these picks last year. So we get 2 firsts and Carter Jr, who is a skilled big, but with flaws, like very passive. and a bunch a cap space. I don't think this is a full rebuild. this is a reset.
Vuc's numbers are replaceable

[zaymon]

I like Wendell Carter, i think Clifford can really work with him. Good passer and potential as a shooter. Looking at picks they are better than Pelicans got from Bucks for Holiday. I really wanted to make it work with Vucevic but that is not a bad return at all.

I **** with the vuc trade but L on fournier value though lol

[PrimeThyme]

Top 4 protected is fine. Someone mentioned it earlier, but you just don't get picks less protected than that these days.

[Optimus_Steel]

mfers did it. they spent 4 whole years on just evaluation to figure out they want to do a firesale at the end.

We all told them to do this after year 1, it was obvious. And AG should have been traded within 1 1/2 years of them drafting JI.

[Bergmaniac]

Not a great deal, now Chicago would probably make the playoffs, LaVine is playing out of his mind and Vucevic is a massive upgrade on Wendel Carter.

[MagicHolland]

Now trade the bulls pick and AG to GS for the Minny pick! Oubre for salary filler

Yikes thats terrible, his value is poop.

My prayers answered. This truly is a great day.

[JojoSlimbiid]

The Bulls are a playoff team....why yall worrying about top 4 protections? We need them to be worse than they currently are.

[PrimeThyme]

We really couldn't even squeeze a player out of the Fournier deal? lol
