    What I don't understand is why the Bulls front office is already trading like they are in rebuild mode when they have Wade and Butler on their roster. This trade is a future benefits trade. They lost all potency now in a gamble that Payne in the future will pay off.

    On that thunder-bulls trade:
    Taj on a expiring deal aint he ?
    Doug is far far from proven
    Bulls get potential pg of the future...I mean MCW was getting mins... like bruh cmon
    And they got that international kid who got a clip
    so far from a bad trade imo

    @Poohdini
    I like butler but his game is kinda throwback and pretty ball dominant
    PG13 fits in today's game better. He can do a bit of everything including a off ball game. People acting like he having such a down year but all his %'s from the field r @ or near career highs. He's the one guy that i really did not wanna see on the celtics

    Also u gotta be careful w/ dudes who got 2 the line and rely on that for an abnormal amount of their production. Often times come playoffs those whistles getting swallowed and might be little tougher to be effective. Add to the fact butler dont got extreme height,speed, handles and u got to hand it to dude for the #s he dropping, impressive, but i can think of 15 dudes im taking before him

    Isn't this the time now to get someone tho? I mean I get it we are gonna win 50+ games and have about 48 draft picks but still, we are like one piece away from being a real contender.

    I just get frustrated when we don't do s---... but I guess with Danny and The King of the Forth... we will follow.

    Taj loved it here, definitely the best player in the deal. Idk if we should or would have resigned him, but he said that 8 other teams wanted him so I would've rather flipped him for a pick.

    I don't know about Payne, he was decent his rookie year but I'm not sure about PG of the future. I hope I'm wrong and he's great but I don't like the direction in general.

    Are we trying to contend or rebuild? We traded 2 solid rotations guys for some unproven young players. I want to keep Jimmy but moves like this aren't winning us more games.

    As far as Jimmy vs PG you said is fair. Jimmy is definitely more ball dominant and might not have meshed as well with Isiah.

    I don't think there is anything we can do to win a Title this year. Bradley is coming back soon and if the C's can get to the ECF and still have all the assets, then Free Agents will be lining up to come here. And that is without having to give up all the assets needed in a Paul George or Jimmy Butler deal.

    The thought of being able to win now as soon as next year and still have 3 top 3 picks in a row, is almost too good to be true.

    Already miss Lou Will a little, dude was fun to watch and could put up points in a hurry when he got hot. He was also one of the best I've seen at drawing fouls, knows when to throw it up when the defender reaches and got his arm in there.
