Everyone acquires stars except for the Bulls. We get sloppy seconds.
Full control of future first round picks? Thank goodness. Some podcast commentators say that the Spurs can still get the Bulls 2026 (or 2027) first round pick.
Fire sale and its ok get picks
K.C. thank you for all the information! With all everyone saying. Now I don't feel confused.
Chicago Bulls Needs To Enter The Cooper Flagg Sweepstakes
Chicago Bulls Got Torrey Craig Talen Horton Tucker Chris Duarte And Javon Carter Going To Be Heading To Free Agency
Vooch Should Pack His Bags
Essentially – the Bulls owed the SPURS one 1st round pick for DeMar. With this Lavine trade they gave that pick back to us & once we make the pick in 2025 it will finalize the Demar trade out entirely. Bulls will not owe the Spurs anything. So despite the small return we in the running for top prospects in the next two drafts. (Flagg/Haprer Jr/Bailey/Maluach/Boozer Bros (2026)
A younger coach would be a good fresh start, need to let the younger players make their mistakes & learn the game while being coached up/encouraged. That has not been a thing here in CHI for years. Player development & encouragement have to be emphasized with this rebuild.
How can this be called a Rebuild if the deals being made by this FO arenโt bringing back a lot of draft capital?
I understand they got full control of the SAS pick, but they were in pretty good position to keep it this year and probably would have been bad enough to keep it next offseason.
Having all of their 1st round picks doesnโt mean this FO can make a good 1st round selection. Theyโve thus far proven they canโt.
Also, in the LaVine trade, did the Bulls FO choose the (2) players they received or was this just a take it or leave it type of transaction for them?
Iโm so sick of 2nd round picks.
Even if we get a lottery pick, whoโs to say that theyโre gonna pick the right player. They picked Patrick Williams with the fourth pick. And we see how that going
Just to show people how bad this team has become we have a coach who hasnโt had a winning record in 4 years and was given a extension and then our general manager traded demar zack lavine Alex Caruso and Torrey Craig and only got our own pick back and Josh giddey how this guys still have jobs especially Billy Donovan is beyond me I love this team and love our young pieces especially Matas and ayo and phillps and Coby but I think we are gunna ruin these guys with Billy as our coach I mean a guy who has never win anything in the leauge and yet people talk about him like heโs Phil Jackson I mean Durant harden Westbrook ibaka and vuc lavine and demar he had all these players and couldnโt win with first group and couldnโt even get over 500 with second just think bout that
Terry was released today!!
Hope AKME learned their lesson for drafting an underdeveloped Patrick Williams in 2020 draft. In this yearโs draft, pick a guy that can be a walking bucket like DeRozan and Lavine during their times in Chicago.
Donโt need any enemyโs in life when you support the bulls
โPeaches & Creamโ is a dessert, โPeaches & Herbโ was the artist with โReunitedโ. PS-Iโm old school too, I didnโt have to Duck Duck Go that!
Vucevic and Patrick Williams for Hachimura, Reeves, Vanderbilt and Knecht. I will keep posting this until social media catches ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
The way u rebuild is getting picks u get no picks for Alex or Zach AK is a disaster
Well, Bulls are always on the losing side of each trade but hey, could be worse right?
Trading Alex Caruso away for Josh Giddey was an insult to all fans and now they didn't get nothing in return for Zach no draft capital no nothing
we've sucking axx since 2016-17…. thats a solid 9 years (with a small break of ~30-40 games where we were decent)
so let's suck for another 4-5 years… cuz we haven't sucked enough.
this is a proper poverty franchise.
I do not know why everybody is so hellbent on teams, like the Bulls, rebuilding and tanking for draft picks?? The Bulls should try to win as many games as they can for the rest of the season and contemplate making the Play In Tournament. The hell with relying on draft picks to turn your team around. These modern day draft picks are not "as good" nor "as tough" as the draft picks of the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s. There is no guarantee that any of these 2025 draft picks are going to do anything at the NBA Level. IMO, today's NBA is so weak until any team can win the Championship.
Peaches ๐ N Cream ๐๐ Noooooo Peaches N Herb bro that the name of the artist that sing the song โReunitedโ ๐๐พ
Chicago es una mierda botaron a Cris Duarte Cris Duarte resuelve es buena en jugador espero en Dios que nunca ganen un campeonato
Awesome update KC
Is there a way to get Cooper Flagg
Sure they areโฆnot sure what the vision is here? Keep my job?
I know that the Chicago bulls are rebuilding
K C that was a dumb move
Maybe the Bulls are setting things up for a Jimmy Butler reunion.
Finally after three years away i can watch the Bulls again. Since the Zach Lavine cancer is gone. Just think they could have got one maybe two 1sts for this guy just a few years back. Now, bring on the TANK baby.
