So does this mean we're really blowing it up? Is Butler being traded?

Let's hope Jimmy Butler isn't the next guy to get scrutinized by the fans/media now that Rose's is gone.

Butler isn't getting traded for the garbage the Celtics are offering.
Losing to get high draft picks and hoping they turn into franchise players is not some next level, genius move. That's what teams want to happen in any rebuild/tank or whatever you want to market it as.

You were expecting what exactly? Either this or you guys probably lose him for nothing.

Solid move to start getting younger. You guys will like Lopez and this can hopefully start off a mini-rebuilt/retool that the Bulls desperately need. I think it's great the Bulls decided to be proactive about fixing the roster instead of just doing what most teams do and lose players for nothing.

Lets hope he is. He certainly has asked for it. Now he's got it.

Why are you so negative, Lopez is a good center and Grant was starting to come along and has a one year head start on this years draftees. There probably was not much market for him and the FO wanted to start rebuilding now instead of treadmilling another year.

Yeah very sad he had to go this way, but this is much better than the 2 late draft picks from Philly I wanted for him.
