Freaking infuriating. Cheap as always. Rather than a draft & stash, grab the cash. F this franchise.

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

I feel for people that follow this team closely.

Well some of you were begging them to trade down yesterday they did it (i know you meant in the first) lol

This signals they are for sure taking a draft+stash at 55, no other reason to do it in my opinion

Or a 2-way guy. That happens more toward the end of the second round. My guess is they have a guy in mind that they don’t think will be drafted by 55.

Nah. They don't care who they get at 55 or else they would have just stayed at 45. The only reason they didn't just sale the pick outright is bc they know how bad it looks.

When these Cash Considerations occur, why doesn't the actual number get reported? Did Reinsdorf just make 300k? 50k? A million?

Honestly I'm not angry. If AK had actually moved Vuc, Williams, or White I would have been thoroughly shocked. We all have a pretty good idea of how this FO operates at this point.

We know, but people still go to games and support this ownership.

Well its not like I was expecting anything from that pick.

But ts just frustrating when we always go the cash rout instead of assets.

In theory, it could go towards hiring more staff, improving facilities, cup holders at the United Center.

But we all know the truth: it's to line Reinsdorf's pockets.

INFURIATING.

Who's down to protest at the Advocate Center?
