    At this point, can it possibly any more obvious that the Bulls front office has absolutely no idea what they are doing?

    The Bulls front office duo of Gar-Pax is terrible.

    What a dumb trade for Bulls. Zach is a free agent after this season so they will give $120 millions to a guy coming off ACL? He's Monta Ellis, but not as good. Sad for bulls fan

    Rubio won't be there long term.

    Butler is a better shooter than either of the clowns they gave up.

    Butler is a perfect fit in many ways.

    This looks like a fair trade

    The proposed CHI-MIN deal thru lens of ESPN RPM:

    MIN gets: Jimmy Butler (7th in RPM) 16th pick, signed for 2 more years

    CHI gets: Zach LaVine (388th) Coming off ACL and a Free agent after this season

    Kris Dunn (399th)

    7th pick

    He is a SG who is bad on D, scored 20 points for most of last season and an outstanding volume shooter. A max player that I would acquire in a heartbeat preinjury.

    If that's a RFA then that's a lot different.

    Still though, they took a big risk but really they weren't getting anywhere with Butler. He's not an elite tier player so no one was coming there to play WITH him. May as well get some assets and start rebuilding. I understand the move for them.

    Damn! o_O

    Wolves get a top 15 player for what amounts to be draft projects... and still get to pick at 16th?

    The West keeps getting tougher with widespread incompetence in the East. :mad:
