Got 1 pick back for Zach LaVine. Sure it's their own 1st round pick back but that is absolutely terrible. What a joke of an organization.

The Bulls had to actively remind me that they're doing me a favor not being on real TV anymore.
It's a blah deal, no doubt but the Bulls needed to be rid of Zach's contract. You do realize how difficult it was to trade Lavine? Be glad the Bulls got something for him.

And? It's not like the Bulls were going to use that money on anybody productive. Besides, it's only two years, so whatever.
It's just such a typical Reinsdorf organization move. I'm just sick of these teams.
It's not completely unlike what the Blackhawks were doing when giving short term overpaid contracts to a couple of players because of their potential leadership value. The second year on the L Ball deal is a team option; maybe if he plays well next year he has some trade value. Like the Blackhawks, cap space isn't an issue for Bulls.

I’ll start watching a little when they actually rebuild and draft a potential superstar. I can’t think of a reason to watch now.
Moncada signed with the Angels for 1 year/$5 million
Would love Bregman on a short deal but he apparently wants six or seven years.

AK is a goof. Here's a couple quotes from his presser (taken from twitter).
[Bulls are in a] “transitional phase and there’s more to be done” but (AK) also believes Bulls can still make playoff run.
"There's different structures that you can try to get to a championship. There's 2-3 star players and then a lot of role players or you can build it as 9-10 very good players." AK says their building toward the latter model.
So sounds like he's happy drafting in the 8-12 range every year and getting very good players. Guess he doesn't want the burden of star players????????
