Or will they be like 7 pages long, because in reality, few people care to watch a garbage team.
few people care to watch a treadmill team with the prospect of losing your best player in a year or two. they made the correct move. they simply waited a year too long.

NO ONE here thought that.
We wanted a high LOTTO PICK AT LEAST.
WE GOT DESTROYED IN THIS TRADE. PERIOD.
We don't have the assets to rebuild.

He can't defend a chair.

Do the Bulls FO hate the Celts that much? I'm pretty sure the Cs offer was better than what you guys got here. Sorry, I would've liked to have seen Butler in green

They didn't have to trade him then.

At least can Hoiberg be fired and replaced with Rondo?

Rubio/Butler/Wiggins/Towns/Dieng. That should be enough for the playoffs in the West, especially if Utah and/or LAC fall off.
Chicago.......what are you thinking?
You could have just as easily posted this on the Minnesota board, bro.
I Legit pressed on the first link next to NBA Board and assumed this was on the General Board.
My apologies to the Chicago board, I don't troll like that.

We just demolished what miniscule possible value Grant and Payne may ever have had to us. That kinda means we wasted Rose and Taj.

I bet that was never on the table. I'd bet at best it was the 4th pick and garbage.
People are totally overlooking LaVine.
I'd be okay with Lavine if he didn't just tear his ACL. Probably won't play until after all star break next year.
AKME got to go

I'm not writing off Lavine -- it's possible his rehab has gone well.
I'm pissed off because it's obvious GarPax overvalues Dunn, who isn't good.

Man do I hope Isaac falls to us. Otherwise, well, there really isn't a single person at any level of the Bulls that I am impressed with. I am going to have a super, super hard time watching anything other than like 3 games, I feel like.

Sorry to break it to you, but Dunn can't shoot.
Dammit! Just let me delude myself right now.
