Bulls Listening To Offers For Everyone But Lauri Markkanen, Wendell Carter Jr.

Post #1 » by **RealGM Wiretap** » Sat Feb 2, 2019 8:03 pm

The Chicago Bulls will listen to trade offers for every player on their roster except Lauri Markkanen and Wendell Carter Jr., according to Zach Lowe.

Although Lowe does not expect the Bulls to trade Zach LaVine or Kris Dunn due to their high asking price.

The Bulls recently traded for Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot from the Thunder, while waiving Carmelo Anthony to make roster space.

Translation: CHI has them on the market but the asking price is too high

Is this basically the Bulls way of saying, "please take LaVine off our hands."

Markkanen should demand a trade, Porzingis style.

I want to and 1 you million times for this. My same heart felt opinion. Lord heavens. They suck as a organization. No position to be throwing anyone away but are begging for saving a mother effing dollar. No free agent I'd coming here with there track record. Horrid front office. Bad coaching system. I'm happy for Timothy finally getting over here because I wanted him drafted here. But they have no clue how to run a team

Zach is a good 3rd scoring option on a championship contending team. And his contract IMO is pretty good for the production he's capable of.

no, it's a simple case of a team lying about the availability of their top players for PR purposes. very, very few players are untradeable

his contract is horrible because outside of scoring he's a really bad basketball player. the bulls have been better with him on the bench this year. that should tell you something

Drafting Carter was s luck move. Regardless they were supposed to get Luka. And putting everyone on the table is dumb. I have a bombshell also. Jabari Parker is better then markkanen. Carter is a rookie so I'll give him time. It's funny how they handpick a player to lead them in the future but zach and Parker or anyone else is important to them.

Fred Hoiberg even knew what to do with this team. He had a plan. Nobody else seems to care about anything but a dollar. Only player who is probably ok with joining this team is butler. He loves the city. But knows he won't be enough. The best the bulls can do is bring back rose and butler.

I don't see anything bigger then that. Kris Dunn might as well enjoy next season cause this organization to cheap to pay him. Chi way of keeping a player they like is telling him they value him. Then turn around and offer that player 4 or 5 less then what any other team gives him. There only hope is Zion rn

I agree. Lavine is a stud. The bulls will probably trade him though because they’re terrible lol. They need a pg & a sf. Lavine is not the issue. Hopefully he leaves for a franchise with hope. Playing on the timberwolves & bulls your whole career has to be demoralizing. His career winning percent has to be horrible lol

I dont know about Butler, he needs to calm down his drama queen theatrics!? Irving and Butler would be solid start for Bulls dow..
Irving, Butler, Hutchinson, Markannen, Carter --- maybe Rose would be okey with being 6th player role,to play in home town.
