I don't care about those future picks right now, because AK/ME will make everything happen if we need some first round picks again.

They will use AKME magic!

THERE YOU GO BULLS.....IN AKME I BELIEVE!!!!!

The Bulls are definitely going to have a lot of NBA primetime slot now.

i was hoping we'd get a team option on the third year given the size of the contract. kind of feels like derozan's team leaked the clippers interest to drive up our price and we blinked

Love it! Bulls are a contender. Another 1st? Imo who cares. The bulls drafted Valentine, Markkenen, Carter, White and Williams. Not exactly a big haul imo.

Holy **** balls. Can't believe we're going with such a soft front court, but yeah I guess Lauri must be kept now so that Aminu doesn't start at the 4. Wtf!

On paper, this is a top 3 team in the east. If they don't achieve that then Donovan has to go.

wow. I was whining about maybe paying him close to 20 million

Instead he gets nearly 30 million.

yikes.

.281 from 3 point range in an NBA that chucks non-stop 3's....

he's even worse in the playoffs....

We're not beating the Nets wit this roster unless they get decimated by injury.
But I'm happy that Zach Lavine will be making a fortune!

Seems questionable to use a team with no capspace to drive up the price, but it worked!

You guys realize that Derozan is one of the worst playoff performers of all time, correct?

And the sample size is quite large.

Lonzo, Caruso, Dotson
Zach, Coby, Ayo
Demar, TBJ
Lauri, PWill
Vuch, Marko

Sign me the **** up

Plus we still have the BAE and minimum to round out the roster. Definitely need to add some frontcourt depth and rim protection.

I don't see Laurie staying, he's next to go. Get some draft cap back

I'm pretty sure we have a plan for big men. We now have a competent front office and I trust their judgement. Well done.

I still don't know if Ak sucks or is brilliant, but at least he knows that first round picks are trash and should virtually all be traded. I've been clamoring for that for like 15 years lol!
