As a downstate bulls fan I hate this with a fiery passion.

I think a bunch of us are going to pick up the Timberwolves as a secondary team with Ayo and TSJ on the team now

Couldn’t even get TSJ in return. Awful.

Every Chicagoan just fell to their knees in Portillo’s.

I imagine the TWolves are gonna get a lot of new supporters for the rest of the year (me included)

Literally

Its what had to happen, and needed to happen sooner. Been saying it to my buddies they were so content with just making the play-in every year.

Edit: maybe not every player but it needed to be blown up

Giddey and Williams are left, any other rotation guys?

Ya’ll look so different

Some teams are just businesses. Think how many owners broke the bank to try and compete for years and years and it never pays off. Imagine the Buffalo Bills doing everything right a bunch of times across decades and nothing. 

Bulls ownership decided in 1998 they had done enough winning and it was time to reap the rewards. Every year they’re 32-42 wins and every year they’re still a top valued team lol. 

And a guard

The league doesn’t want you to know that you can trade in 20 2nd round picks for a clone of 2018 LeBron

I am guessing either a 1st round pick OR Rob Dillingham and one or two seconds (Ayo and Dillingham’s salaries match almost perfectly)

Leonard Miller should get a shot on a developing team, not behind Naz, Rudy, and Randle. He’s big, he plays with energy, he can shoot threes (a bit), and he runs the floor really well. He’s a good rebounder and he plays with energy. Could be a stretch five or a solid PF. He’d fit well with Giddey.

Four of them!

I’m calling my shot it will be a pick that gets packaged for Zion

4 of them

Can it not be looped into the Conley trade still?

4 second-round picks*

Dillingham + Leonard Miller

PDX from the top rope!

He might but this trade is unrelated. None of the players or picks the wolves sent are needed for salary matching or affecting our offer

Bruh, if you a Kings fan THIS is going to be your lineup in 2-3 years.

Ayo technology

DOSUNMU I’VE COME TO BARGAIN

Dude was too busy on his hands and knees rummaging on the ground for Giannis clicks lookin like Velma searching for her glasses

It’s probably expanded in the Conley trade 

Bro he worked a b2b he resting for the 4th quarter

Shams is a bum

Fraud since birth

I ain’t forget you Chicago mfs was calling him the Paw and the next Kawhi

Nobody wants him, at this point he’s filler to make sure the Bulls hit the salary floor lol

I hate Pat even more solely bc he’s going to somehow outlast Ayo’s tenure

Sometimes I think about his massive contract extension and just get really mad

Dude is such an overpaid bum we’re definitely stuck with him until his last year of his contract at best. 0 teams in the league will be interested in taking that mess on unless he magically starts playing up to it. That shit should’ve been a fireable offense

Why would you not want the tank commander?

with that horrible contract, he’s probably gonna stick. Not an easy sell to a trade partner.

Great trade, they’re gonna love him and all they had to give up was a bag of chips

Let’s make a deal. You trade Luka for Lamelo, and we’ll start Yuki. Deal?

unsure this is selling high

We got shit. Two dudes who average under 4 pts and some seconds

I’m a little dubious that he sold high. Minnesota doesn’t have any first round picks to trade, nor do they have young high upside players that seem like they’d be easy or obvious that they would move them. Best case scenario maybe the Bulls got beringer and some seconds. Most likely scenario… They decided to take a flyer on dillingham and some seconds since they seem to be trying to pick up young out of favor players and hope they can rehabilitate them (Ivy, dieng)

We don’t know the return yet.

Bulls def got robbed again. Ayo’s legit

it’ll be jaden rather than ant which will be more terrifying

good or bad

They didnt trade yuki

Knees covered in piss now

So far

Do not underestimate the incompetence of the Bulls front office!

Karma for not letting Valanciunas go home to his family

Ngl Ayo is better off-ball and on the break than at playmaking lol

I don’t watch Chicago games so i’m ignorant but a quick google search tells me he’s a 2. Unless that’s what he’s listed officially but he can really play the 1 if he has to

ELI5, what makes you say that?

Good. Wolves dont need him for what he’d cost

Cash considerations knowing the bulls ownership

Dillingham is a 100% negative asset and Miller has never gotten minutes outside the G league. Chicago turned two assets into two fliers and 4 second round picks. Genuinely wtf? I would riot as a Bulls fan.

Tanking poorly

All of them

He’s a pending UFA and is likely to get a nice deal after his contract expires.

Cuz it’s the Bulls dawg and they’re dumb af. He’s a phenomenal player, even with all the shit out FO pulls I literally didn’t think in my wildest dreams that they’ll trade Ayo, let alone for damn near nothing.
