Might be the best joke I’ve seen on this sub maybe ever

Hall of fame r/nba post immediately

The joke is fine but there are some real 🤓-ass replies

I’m slow what does this mean

Please fuck my wife kind stranger!

Glass Man in a Windy City

Wow

I regret that I am limited to one upvote

BARS

Well fucking done.

The basketball fit would be fantastic lol

The only issue with AD is health

Him being a Packers fan is even weirder

The basketball fit which would be fine, AD can corral rebounds and pass it out to Giddey to get them running just fine

Our franchise has been run by the marketing department since Thibs was run out of town

Never underestimate the appeal of a hometown hero; the raptors sub talks about RJ like he’s the second coming of Jesus just because he’s from Toronto lol

This+Ayo+Matas+Jevon Carter

They really seem to draft Illinois when given the opportunity

They also had THT and Pat Bev in recent years.

They currently employ ³⁄₁₆ of the Chicago players which is statistically significant

He’s an outspoken Packers fan. That’ll already lose a ton of his “hometown hero” credibility around here

I think very few people in Chicago give a shit about AD.

Koby and Vuc for sure

Coby, Vuc/Collins, Pat and the Portland 1st. Its basically a Coby + money relief move.

Not a super good deal for both sides but both sides probably wont get much of a return either way.

I think the Bulls should move on from Coby either way and on a cheap expiring contract will make it hard to get value- doesnt mean the player hes moved for is AD tho.

Coby White, Zach Collins, and a first round pick as a baseline. Maybe add another player for contract matching and maybe another pick

I think a slept on piece of the Luka trade was AD once again publicly insisting that he’s a 4 playing out of position and that’s why he’s always hurt etc. That clearly pissed off Jeanie and Rob.

As everyone can plainly see, he’s not a 4 and should never ever be played there if your goal is to win basketball games in 2026.

My guess is Williams, Huerter, Collins and draft picks. Dallas will probably ask for multiple 1st in this deal, so it’s up to the Bulls to decide if AD is worth that price.

Giddey-White-Buzelis-Davis-Vucevic

Not bad. If AD stays healthy they could be a threat in the weaker East

Salary and picks 

Get ready to learn brisketese Patrick Williams and Coby white 

Spot on. He’s getting old and is barely healthy. This does nothing to build for a championship.

Spend some money on one of the best players in the league in a position they need when his price is at his lowest due to some injury concerns? Nah a Bulls move would be if they did nothing, spent no money and lost in the play-ins every year for the next 7 years with Giddey as their “superstar”, no tanking, no contending, just mediocre

Reminds me of when the Pistons traded for Blake. One of those moves that is obviously a poor decision before it’s even made, but flashy enough that it can convince ownership that it’s a good idea.

There’s barely a squad as it is, we’d have to give up two or three of our 8 best players to get him, only for him to ask for a trade once he’ll see Jerry Reinsdorf look for loose change in the United Center parking lot because he’s such a cheap bastard. Useless trade.

I think you still want to build some sort of winning culture and having productive vets is a stepping stone for that

Even OKC traded for CP3 who helped with the development and culture of the team

You also have this championship or bust mentality when it’s a bit more nuanced than that. Teams could be tanking for years and still not get anywhere close to where OKC is

They don’t rebuild like ever though that’s the problem, they don’t tank even when they have their picks, they are more than happy just being mediocre, drafting from like 10-15 in the lottery every year, often times missing when they get decent picks. At least getting AD for cheap would be like “fine they did something at least”. Like could they really not tank last season with such a good draft both before the draft and now in hindsight. No like every single year, they don’t spend money and lose in the play-ins. At least if they are not tanking then yeah they should probably get AD and make the playoffs and if they are lucky win a round or 2.

They will have to hide his love for the packers tho

And it keeps the Bulls in or around the play-in, everybody wins

I don’t want him

Yeah home run trade for the Bulls. Why do I even watch this sport anymore?

How can you know that without knowing what the trade is lmao

Good trade, sure. But home run trade with him about to be 33 and having the injury history he does? Definitely not. This is gonna come down to what they give up for him which shouldn’t have to be much tbf.

Giddey up

Vuc for luka pretty much. Holy fuck that’s bad.

You already are a perpetual play in team. There’s two directions to take from there.

Ye bulls don’t want to tank and haven’t for ages so at this point just trade for a superstar that fills a gaping hole on your team.

And cavs look like shit

AD is made of glass lol. Coby White and rotational players are enough.

Don’t like it. Coby White is a rental far more important to the Bulls than to any other team, much less the Mavs and the Bulls probably value him at least as a FRP; on the other hand, Patrick Williams is a mini albatross that would cost them a bad FRP (2026 POR, probably) to ditch.

Would rather let them keep both and get Huerter and Vooch, maybe even re-route the latter to a third team for an additional pick. Let them keep their dynamic SG that is a rental to everyone else and let them find someone else to dump Williams to.

Two first round picks for Anthony Davis who also wants a contract extension on top of his current awful salary? That would be organizational malpractice

Would never want this. AD very unlikely to be healthy, doesn’t fit our offensive style of play, and we’d be giving up young assets for a short term pice that I don’t believe will yield significant success short term.

If we are gonna trade those prices, trade for picks or younger promising players

And trading firsts for him?? Hell no

Which is essentially what the Bulls would be

shush, i don’t want the bulls gm to see this

He’ll be injured the whole time

Don’t give them any more ideas; I want off this rollercoaster
