I at time feel like the last lone Zach supporter, 20+ ppg 60%+ TS% guards simply don't grow on trees.


Not alone there, buddy. I support a rebuild, but we HAVE to get value for him, unlike we did for Caruso.
Constantly underwhelmed by the Bulls.

Unless I'm misunderstanding the CBA, there's a good $30 million we still need to absorb. It better not be Barnes.

Happy he's gone but it's not a good sign that we traded with the exact two teams that killed us in a deal this summer.

Kings got 3 firsts.

We got our pick back and skittles. Fleeced again. What a joke of a franchise

It’s honestly about the worst deal you can take.

Take back 3 average players for salary purposes, 2 of which are contracted for next year.

The Spurs pick back is almost useless. We were going to keep it this year and likely the next 2 years as well.

In essence, we’ve traded Zach for exactly nothing. The only positive is that we’ve finally picked a direction in the short term.

I can only imagine there just weren't better offers. At least the tank is on.

Who is Tre Jones?

Awful awful value. We get our protected pick back but that’s like getting mugged and being handed back a $20 bill.
AKME got to go

Yeah, we got our pick back but without Zach, this team is terrible. There's a good chance we keep our pick this season and next season. Getting our pick back instead of draft compensation wasn't the correct decision IMO unless AKME aren't going to tank.

First off what the hell happened to Realgm right after Zach was just traded ?

Then finally what the hell is AK doing? He waited 2 years to trade him and this is the best he can do ?

Clearly a salary dump but now left with nothing. Hate this direction they are taking.

I'm glad that AK finally made a move.

The Bulls got their pick back, but it's a pick that never should've been traded in the first place (at least not in the DDR sign and trade).

The players don't mean much to me other than expiring contracts (Huerter goes one more year).

Is Vucevic next?

In a vacuum, I think it's fine. But I thought there was a slim chance they could get actual good value for Lavine.

Being rid of Lavine was necessary. But this does further crystallize just how awful AK has been as a decision maker. Put us in a bad spot and doesn't have the intelligence to fix it. Best he can do is tear down and then we get someone else to build it back up.

Return to Chicago Bulls
