Let's move Lauri for Lonzo now!

Agreed!

The love AK has for euro bigs and that he’s willing to give up 2 first round picks and a former first round talent in Wendell let’s you know they don’t believe in Lauri. This was a hefty price to pay and sacrificing some of your future for Vuc.

Feel like this is also a move to make sure Zach doesn’t run and up and leave us.

Really love this move. Yes Vucevic is 30 - but he's got plenty of good years left. Pair this with a trade for Lonzo and lets go win a playoff series or two.

To those who think this is too rich a price, remember this: if something big didn't happen, Zach would certainly leave in a year.

Carter was just the #7 pick a few years ago.

2021 needs lotto protection and I’ll be happy

I dont think this is sacrificing picks.

Yeah, but it shows KC is out of touch. Regardless of the terminology, KC wouldn’t have said that publicly if he thought there was a chance the bulls were sending out two firsts today.

Underrated fact.

it's a win-now move but we also just acquired a 34 mpg big who fills the offensive post hub role that we've leaned on thad for. i obviously think there's a case to be made for keeping thad, but i would personally lean toward taking advantage of the redundancies on the roster to cash in on a valuable piece who is suddenly less important to the roster.

That is a lot to give up for a 30 year old. Really was kinda interested in more draft picks from AK. This is a lot to digest

It is but this is a move that could now stabilize us for years as a playoff team. If we continue to have a great day today, it could set us up for at least another 4 years.

Remember a deal like this is also to appease Zach. Z

ach and Vuce will be great. Zach, Vuce and another high level PG will be AMAZING.

Yes the 2 first can be a concern but if its protected and we make the playoffs this year, its worth it.

Who is this high level PG?

Lavine has never been even close to the playoffs and Vuc has been to the 1st round twice. How does this stabilize us as a playoff team?
