Well, not we look forward to the Zaire Williams draft...we will be tanking for the foreseeable future anyway. Can't remember if that's next year or 2019?

What is he smoking??

Is he talking about the Butler trade or is there another trade coming up?

We just had to sit through 2 straight seasons of absolute garbage basketball and now we have 3 legit prospects. I'm pumped

Not a good chance.

Team will be very bad, but doubtful the worst.

Lavine is decent, Niko is decent, Wade will get points, Rondo will get assists.

If the Bulls have any brains at all, they will make further moves to make sure they are the worst team. Let Niko go, etc.

And if you're tanking you don't give up the #16. They would have made the deal otherwise I'm sure. You keep both picks and bring in 2 potential future starters/stars rather than just 1. This is just pure, unadulterated incompetence.

Dunn is not a shooter..

We got a PG who cant play, a PG who doesn't play PG, and a we moved up 9 spots. We should have been buyers. Some young garb err talented players and our first for a a top 10 player in the league.

I'm sure Boston would've took, Butler instead of Tatum they couldn't work something out with Boston to get Jaylen Brown and the #3 Pick :banghead:

OMG they gave up their #16 Pick too? My Goodness! I'm DONE! I will just be a Casual NBA Fan and root for certain players I like and that is it!

damn!!! not enough value for Butler!!! gaaaahhh we're going in the wrong direction!!!!

Can Wade still opt out, bc he seem way more likely to now. Do we let Rondo go?

HomoSapien wrote:My god, I couldn't be more pissed. To not get a top 3 pick for Butler and then to include the 16th pick? Just completely awful, and what makes it worse is that the primary piece of this trade is an athletic player coming off a major injury.

Gar has outlived a coach that was more valuable than him, and a player that was more valuable than him. Now that coach got the last laugh.

**** you, Gar.


I would sig this whole post if it weren't too long.
