Well too bad for him. This team doesn't work. Now I don't want him to get traded but I personally think that if he wants to avoid trade rumors he needs to play like a supermax contract player. He is the franchise player and the bulls did nothing on his watch.
The million dollar question is do you trade your best player if you’re not rebuilding?
We saw how Zach looked when he had a real PG next to him. I get how DeMar is a leader for the young players and seems like a great locker room presence, but his style of play is not conducive to said young players development. He's so ball dominant along w/ bringing to light that Demar/Lavine is not the best fit. I really hope they don't trade him unless it's some Danny Ainge level type haul.
I don't think they have the guts to, I get stubborn, coward like vibes from this front office. They don't want to do it becauseit will make you feel that they knew that giving him a max contract is a mistake, I do think part of the reason his trade value is set so high is that the Bulls likely don't want to do it so they put it high enough to the point where they know people won't give them the value they're expecting. They don't want to blow it up because it's admitting that the roster they constructed was a failure, and instead of doing that the Bulls are trying to force this roster on people and want to ride with this until the wheels fall off……..I think that's what ultimately going to lead to their downfall.
He is not leader. He has poor basketball iq. Jimmy butler is 5 times better than ZL8. Bulls did have control. They could have offered Jimmy a max and signed players He wanted to play with
I just can't understand why they not trying to trade DeMar
it just don't make no sense im convinced this organization ain't trying to win or develop there young talent
I would trade ZL8 for some 2nd round picks. He is not a winner.
Bulls had 40-42 record. It's not good enough. So, if prime Zach results 40-42 record.. its dead end!
Deebo must be traded for a power forward! Pwill needs to be the small forward. Deebo is not a small forward.
Why not trade him they are not winning with him
the problem with lavine is the consistency of his game. This season was a perfect example of that, lavine is a gifted player and an all star caliber player in a any season but honestly i dont see him as someone who helps the team win that much for him to be considered untouchable. For a pretty good package i would prefer for lavine to go then demar who still has some good years left in his game and is a better player
When Zach’s brain turns off in the last 5 min of every game, and he goes full deer in the headlights… he should be benched. Dude is dumb as dirt in crunch time and just turns into a turnover/chucker machine
Can we trade Billy Donovan? Please?
Eventually he will leave and go back home, probably in the next 2 years. Would you trade Zach for Tyrese Maxey? A undersized guard?
Not next draft, but the 2025 draft class is supposed to be amazing! Something to think about…..
Every time I see a trade rumor for zach its never a good package to me at least if your gonna trade Zach i would look somewhere that have multiple young talent like a okc, Brooklyn, Utah etc. Instead i see return for like a julius Randle or James Harden which would both be terrible returns imo
If the Bulls can get 3 first’s and a solid player then i’m down. The Hero package is trash because those Heat picks will likely be at the end of the first round, assuming the picks are theirs, and I dont like Hero’s game.
it was so surreal watching them lose against the worst and win against the best 💀
I don't think it's Zach's fault the chemistry on this team is bad. I think he needs someone who isn't super dominant to run the offense. DeMar looks good because he is an INCREDIBLE Iso scorer, but it comes at the cost of the rest of the team having to stop/slow down and not play movement ball, where Zach excels. Look at the highlights you used for the video. More than half of them are Zach moving off ball and having a facilitator hit him in that movement to make plays happen. He scores off his first step and Iso very efficiently as well, but teams will absolutely lock that down if it happens over and over, they do it to DeMar already. This team's problem isn't Zach, it's their complete lack of PG and offense running. Lonzo was the glue that made this team great. Carter looks to be a guy who can fill that role, too. If it doesn't happen by the mid season deadline I see them blowing it up, but before then I think you see if Carter can bring that magic back.
I wouldn't mind a trade if the return was fair enough. Zach is such a question mark and cant be your number one option if you wanna compete.
He's "SAD" "DEPRESSING" "Emotionless" & doesn't even own a home here ! #MoveHim
A topic I’m passionate about Zach is a Bull for the next two seasons and Damar is not the best player on the team Zach has been injured all except the 2nd half of last season with him healthy he was far better than Damar he’s a top 10 talent just my opinion look at how the best players in the NBA describe Lavine and they play against him he has mental lapses and gets frustrated when he doesn’t get calls like all players do but who can deny the talent Bulls nation wants MJ back I do to but MJ is not walking through the door anytime soon and if he did he wouldn’t win without Pippen so let’s find the right players to win with the talent we have and stop being 2k general managers
Zach is highly skilled fun to watch and is a good character which is why so many people in the NBA like the guy. With Vooch signing a 3 year extension plus the other players they have acquired. That shuts up the trade Zach rumours straight away for me. It's clear as daylight AK is trying to build a team to compete now around him. Rumours are rumours and if I was Zach Lavine I just take it with a grain of salt because it comes with the territory of being an elite sports player. That's why they are all on the big bucks
Trading Demar makes more sense to me
What I love about Zach Lavine is that he is a student of the game ,looking at his interviews and him in training ,he is always actively asking questions and working on his game.I hope he stays in Bulls.
Why are we hearing nothing on DeMar trade rumours. Surely, it makes more sense for the Bulls to trade him now?
Those closing sentiments are exactly why we need to trade him. Can’t take criticism has to be the guy low iq etc he’s a basket though gotta give him that 😂🤷🏿♂️
Mentioning the trade that brought Lavine to Bulls makes me remember how much I miss Kris Dunn! I really liked Dunn!
as a #1 he will never work he has to go
The only way we should be trading Lavine is if it's for a full rebuild. Has to be a haul as well.
AK isn't trading anyone! Especially not the players he traded for and brought in! That has the team stuck in mediocrity! If he traded anyone or brought in someone in who could actually score! It would shock the sh*t out of me! 😂
