Lauri is more concerning in any role because he seems like a pretty big defensive liability at the 4 or 5. I would very much sell Lauri if we can get any sort of reasonable offer.

Sato has proven nonthing. He’s a bigger liability on defense than any other bull. I don’t care what the advance stats say. It’s a reason why teams attacked Sato on the perimeter more than any otther bull. He can’t guard pgs he’s to slow. He got overpowered by small forwards. His defense was so bad that Kendal Gill, Goff, King, Funk, Kaplan started to fall him out towards the end of the season. The only player that was worst defensively on the perimeter might of been Valentine. Satos 1 on 1 defense was atrocious.

I wonder if the bulls can find a way to trade Sato for Tj Warren. Bulls could use a wing scorer. Maybe the pacers could use Sato as a backup point guard.

Another possibility I thought of is trying to trade Sato for Darius Garland. Cavs have to small point guards in Garland in Sexton. I don’t think that pairing will work. Maybe the bulls can try and con the cavs into taking Sato for Garland or Kevin Porter.

I agree, Sato is worthless.. Needs to be moved, I rather keep Dunn.

Why not Wendell? Keep Gafford on the cheap sign a vet like Marc Gasol or RoLo. WCJ wants to play PF. No thanaks. Doesn't shoot 3s.

I don't think Van Fleet is going anywhere. Raps have big money coming off the books in Gasol and Ibaka and following year with Lowry. They want to build around Siakam. If they were willing to part with Van Fleet I'd S&T Otto and WCJ for him.

Wendell can go too.

I guess all of the analysts are crazy because they saw the same thing. Satos defense was trash.

This type of all out non nuanced hate on a single player has to stop... Especially when the resulting proposed trade is for TJ Warren, who has lit the bubble on fire. Complete nonsense.

Sato had a poor shooting year and was a bit over his head as a starting PG, but he definitely is valuable as a rotation player who can handle and score. Even though He’s not a key to this team, I’d be happy with him in the second unit if we don’t trade him

Satoransky is not a bad player at all. He’s not a starting PG to lead you to wins but still is a solid role player to have. I hope they keep him and think he would be appreciated more if the bulls actually had a better team.

I want to Draft Edwards. If we did, I'd love to see a bench line-up of Arci, Edwards, Sato, Hutch, Gafford...Even though I like Arci as our primary back-up PG, Sato has versatility value on this roster next season.

That said, was thinking about a deal for Simmons:

Lauri, Otto, Sato for Simmons, Horford, Korkmaz - basically, we need to take on Horford's horrid deal to get Simmons. Al's still a starter-level talent...will give WCJ his shot at PF, Simmons takes the point-forward position.

he actually put up quite respectable numbers when starting in Wash. He really didn't start to look like a bad player until he joined the Bulls, I think with a new coach, new attitude, and an improved roster (hopefully) we will see him rebound with much better shooting numbers.

Want nothing to do with Simmons. Don’t see him ever winning anything in this league without a shot.

I’d only trade for Embiid if we were able to keep the shooting and scoring of Lavine and Coby.

Sato was OK with Washington. He played like an ok back up point guard. I thought he was overpaid at 10 million to start with. I tried to support the signing but as the season went on he just played poorly. Couldn’t defend, couldn’t shoot, scared to shoot, couldn’t beat anybody off the dribble. Just horrible play. Anytime when the coaches and analyst have to beg a player to be aggressive then that’s a problem. People are saying oh if he had better players around him he would be better. Well no ****!! Nobody makes that excuse for other bulls players that actually had to work there asses of to pick up the slack for Satos non-aggressive ass. Sato was the worst player out of the projected starters last year. It’s telling that the GM mentioned the young talent of Lavine, Markannan, White, Carter. He even mentioned the vets of Thad young and Otto Porter. He didn’t mention Sato because he doesn’t deserve to mentioned.

I think everyone understands that you don't like Sato.

Dunn can stay as backup as Long as Sato gets traded with it. If not, he can stay and Dunn leaves. I'd look into trading Carter.

Magic fan here, would you trade OPJ for Fournier (PO), Aminu, and Orlando's 2nd (#45)?
