Re: Trade Thread: Armchair GMs welcomed
If the Bulls want to make the playoffs, I would make a trade for Jrue and trade #7, Felicio, Hutch, Dunn.
As much as I hate trading picks, this draft is a crapshoot I wouldnt want to touch and rather get a proven commodity.

Lamelo will be a future superstar Bull. Book it. Lavar for president!

What are you offering?
I have no clue lol
That's why I'm asking. Idk what is his status with you guys, is he considered a future star in the making or a nice player but not a star??
Would Robert Williams and all 3 Celtics firsts in this draft be anywhere close? Rozier S&T?
He's already a nice player so I think the uncertainty is is he a guy who will make like one all star game and be a good not great player his career or will he be a regular all star caliber player? He's the highest upside player on the Bulls IMO.
The Bulls need a difference make so your offer of a bunch of mid to late picks probably wouldn't tempt them. Better just hold on to Lauri and hope he keeps developing.

I think most of us view Lauri as a future all-stars and possible all-NBA player. For us to trade him, we would have to get something back that has that same ceiling. Neither of your proposed trades are that. For a Celtics trade, I think it something more along the lines of a Brown/Lauri swap is probably the most comparable thing I can think of. Not sure I'd do it, but I think that is the only thing we'd consider.

A package of Dybala and Rugani might do it. Seriously, what team would you want him going to?

That's three questions, hombre
To answer them, in the order they are in:
1. No.
2. Yes.
3. Yes.
The FO might move Markkanen for a proven star, or a package that contains a highly potential future all star.
From the basketball's perspective, travel is a nice pause from being pounded to the floor.

I wonder if there is a 3 way deal to help NO.
NO in: 8, Valentine out: 4, Hill, Moore
ATL in: 4, Dunn, Blakeney out: 8, 17
CHI in: 17, Hill, Moore out: Dunn, Valentine, Blakeney

I would most definitely not trade Lauri for Jaylen Brown. Probably not Tatum either.

If we are so down on Dunn, maybe a Dunn for Lonzo Ball trade straight up. NO gains a guy with more experience; Dunn gets a change of scenery. They get rid of the Ball family. We get the headache, but upgrade in playmaking over Dunn.

I think our chance for getting rid of Dunn will come in conjunction with taking on another (useful) player who has a higher 1 year salary from a team that wants to shed salary to chase a big name FA. For example, depending on who we draft, a Dunn/Dinwiddie deal could make sense for both teams.
edit: It is possible we could use Dunn to package with #38 to move to late 20's or early 30's if there's someone we like.
