We all wish we could sign him, but Fred VanVleet is gonna ask for over 20 million per season the Bulls don’t have that. They are limited.
The bulls don’t play like a playoff team, and they are limited in cap it’s unacceptable.
I wouldn’t sign van-vleet even if we could. I don’t think he’s going to get back to all-star level production, his salary is too high, and he’s not young.
I rather have Dejounte than Fred.
This is why Chicago should make trades, to get cap space out of the way. Lonzo contract at 20 million is a huge factor.
Lonzo Ball has a player option next offseason in the 2024-25 season do you think he will accept and opt in or decline as if he does most likely is making progress?
I think if Fred wants to come here it would be him coming to his hometown state, and plus DeMar loves VanVleet. He would try to recruit him.
Hell naw I don’t want Fred over here bro would want a bag we already paying demar Zach and possibly vuc if he comes back hopefully a sign and trade jus terrible and he’s inefficient
I agree completely that I don’t believe Fred will make it onto the bulls roster. Do you think the bulls should attempt to trade into this years draft class?
Just wave dumb Lonzo or cut him off the team. Literally everyone wants him gone. His basketball career is over he is wasted salary.
So we aren’t going to do anything this offseason
I mean who else are the bulls going to go after for a point guard because lets be realistic they wont have lonzo for all of next season. I wouldnt like the scenario of having a half year rental PG once again. Bulls need to make big trades.
So literally Christian Wood for the MLE is the only target you’d want this off-season? No wonder we’re stuck in Siberia. We don’t want anyone who might be available even if it means is making additional moves.
What other choice do we have other than running it back?
If the bulls are unsure about keeping vucevic trade him and coby white for dejounte murray and maybe add Portland lottery pick
Bulls need to trade for a draft pick this year! They have to go all out it’s been 3 years with this roster and they have not done anything sadly.
I would love to see him on the Bulls, but agree that it’s not happening. I would do a DeMar swap for him though if the Bulls have no intention of extending him. We could potentially get nothing if he walks next off season or less in a sign and trade…
bulls suck ass….. point guards are terrified to play for us…our front office cant compete in signings and trades …as long as we buying tickets thats all they care about
My question to you is what do you want to happen in this off season?
Can we just start over already? Lonzo may never come back and even if he does, there's no guarantee he's any good to help the team not be play in or first round exit. If AK is as noteworthy for bringing the Nuggets their championship, he should be able to steer a rebuild unless he's fool's gold too
everyone wants a new pg, but i j wanna see coby be the pg 😢
I just don't get it yet my friend. Can you explain me a little bit more? If we don't sign Vucevic, we can't sign someone like Poetl for instance? If we always talked about Vucevic possibly getting something in the range of 20/25 million deal, why we can't offer 18/20 million to someone like Poetl? Because if this is the case, I mean I'm speaking for everyone that the best thing to do is to blow this team completely. It is stupid the fact of being able to do nothing for this mediocre roster…
Can we get a hot takes?
Man it just seem like we can’t sign anybody🤦🏽♂️
Couldn't we sign and trade Vuc! For Van vleet! Lol..they can have AC also! Lol
Why should we consider signing him? He's a career 39% shooter
I don’t want him anyways we got too many PGs
All these trades and FA thoughts are just to help deter us from the inevitable…
The Bulls are gonna run it back next year with the exact same squad (possibly minus Vooch).
A sign and trade using Ball’s contract is a possibility. You do not have to outright sign a free agent. Ball’s contract is effectively an expiring one, as his player option could be bought out for what he is owed. This would give Toronto a $20M cap space bump after this season.
Wait, what about getting $20 mil back this season if we use the career ending exception with Lonzo Ball. Where does that $20 mil go and how can we use it?
We can't sign anyone that is not a minor role player. No "big" names for us! 😂
i hope we trade demar
