Of course this is Bullshit, no pun intended. However i ran it through the old trade machine it works fine as long as you can still sign LaVine after the trade. I wonder what else the Jazz would want besides.....(checks notes) Vucevic,next years Portland pick, this years Bulls pick but i actually think that is unavailable via stepian rule. what else?

i remain flummoxed by this. if the bulls were to trade vooch for gobert, they'd be taking an offense that everyone is screaming doesn't have enough shooting and would take a center who can theoretically shoot and drag someone out to the perimeter to create lanes for zach and demar for a guy who can only shoot 3 inches from the basket and would allow the other team to just camp their shotblockers in the paint.

I mostly just can’t believe another team couldn’t beat that kind of piss-poor offer

i mean it's all just rumors. the new bulls' FO is really tight-lipped and a lot of their big moves (except ball, everyone saw that coming) have come out of nowhere, so i regard any bulls rumors as bullshit until they actually happen.

speaking of ball, it would be really cool if ball's knee wasn't completely dead next season.

Bulls signed Justin Lewis, an absolute tank of a forward from Marquette whose signature move seems to be shoving guys around like bowling pins and getting and ones but also jacking up 3s to a 2-way deal. Cool.

So as far as I can tell, assuming they sign Zach, the bulls will have a $6 million tax payer mid-level to sign a competent backup big and also a guy who has heard of three pointers, that looks like that gets them utter poo poo. Better hope Pat and Ayo become insanely good and lonzo's knees work.

Dexo posted:

There is no path for any team to upgrade their roster in free agency this year, Brunson is like the only FA of note.

The hope for the Bulls is, Pat and Ayo taking a step forward, Pat after he came back when everyone was hurt was looking pretty good near the end of the year. And that you can get a healthy Lonzo and Caruso back.

As when those two were healthy and playing the Bulls were literally the number one seed in the east. The Bulls like never had their complete team the entire year.

And then find a big who's not Tony Bradley and find some other big wing. who can shoot. and maybe stand in front of someone.

And Next year they have more freedom to make moves.

I am still prepared to enter the Deal Zone

I'm still trying to will a Vucevic trade into existence. I assume they're going to end up signing someone like Chris Boucher for most or all of the MLE, maybe trade Coby for a generic 3&D guy or pick a guy like Rodney McGruber off the scrapheap of free agent wings, but even considering the injuries I don't see how the front office can legitimately look at how last season ended and think "We just gotta make some moves on the margins and run it back."

Fuckin, go after Ayton now that Detroit seems to be out on him, I dunno
