Coby / Ivey / Carter
Caruso / Ayo / Harris
Derozan / Thompson / Terry
Bogdanovic/ Craig / Phillips
Vuc / Drummond

The Bulls get younger, more flexibility and lose next to nothing this year. I think this would be a win.


Well, glad you’re not in charge. You’ve put together a younger, worse, and very unlikely to better version of all the problems we already have and complain incessantly about. You are actively pushing to make our horrible shooting problem much worse.


The team is going nowhere. Getting assets for a player you can't trade and not paying PWill $20 million a year are wins in my book. You might as well be running the team since you clearly like mediocrity so much.

Told you guys Zach wasn't going anywhere. Although, I didn't think it was going to be because he'd sit out the season with surgery.

Wow. AKME going to sit on their hands again this deadline and do NOTHING to try and improve the team either short or long term.

I'm glad I didn't cave and buy league pass this year. Coby almost had me though.
Go Bulls... I guess!? Right!?

I didn't forget the "fu me" when drafted by the T'Wolves.

He's a joke just like our franchise.

We deserve it. We're screwed.

You have no idea how much PWill is going to get paid. Huge assumption.

Ausar has new pick shine, but is already and clearly trending to be unplayable on offense. His man is going to sag off and clog the paint. Dude. 14.3%.

Ivey was getting benched for bad defense. He’s looking like a smaller, worse shooting version of Lavine.

I’ll take my chances on moving Zach a year from now or we can just dump him in the offseason after some team inevitably flames out in the playoffs.

Lavine is done bro. He's a bum. I wouldn't want him playing one more sec for the Bulls. Trade him for peanuts, whatever. You get rid of him.

They weren't getting anything for him anyway. If he can recover he will be more valuable next year when there are less years left on his contract. Bulls need to blow it up now and make Zach sit out next year. Let Coby score 30 a game and get a top 3 pick in 2025.

Trading Lavine for a bunch of expirings in a salary dump to Detroit doesn't look so bad now.

Like I said before. Had no problem taking on Harris, Monte, Hayes, Stewart, and Sasser for Zach. Few expiring contracts with a couple of solid players.

I sweat I predicted him pulling this crap. He's E Rob!


There is a very very significant difference on what Zach brought to this team during his tenure versus what E Rob did.

I was saying from last summer that Zach needs to get traded asap before he gets a serious injury. It was bound to happen.

This is on AK, took so damn long to make a trade happen. It’s been what 2 months after Zach requested to get traded. Unbelievable. This was the worst thing that could of happened.

True. ERob was a forward projection. He's been showing his true colors since he signed the max deal. He'll never be as good or useful as he's been for the Bulls.

They can still trade him. But now you definitely have to add assets, so there's no point in doing so.

Trade him for CP3's expiring contract straight up.

Might as well lock this baby up. We can revisit this conversation in two years.

This is impossible due to contracts, of course, but why in the world would the Warriors do that?

I would too. I don’t think that’s what happened though. He likely wasn’t getting traded by the deadline. Now he osnt getting now or in the offseason either. He is here for the foreseeable future. Time for Vuc and or DeRozan to go. Better not see the mid 3 again on opening night.

Return to Chicago Bulls
