I Need the Warriors to do THIS Trade for Zach Lavine
The Golden State Warriors are in a complete disarray right now losing games badly barely beating a team like the Detroit Pistons losing at home on the road you name it they’re currently 17 and 19 11th in the Western Conference at the time of this recording you have players frustrated unhappy with their
Roles Draymond Green unhinged acting like he’s a member of the WWE out there Klay Thompson insecure because he knows his best days are behind him and this is a Warriors team that was thought to be making one last title push this season everyone was calling at the last dance
Of their Dynasty ERA with the core three of Steph clay and Draymond all getting older Clay on the final year of his contract like even if you didn’t think the warriors were going to be legit title contenders like myself you still thought they would at least be a
Competitive team one of the top teams in the Western Conference but now with over a third of the Way season through it’s very possible if the Warriors keep their current roster intact for the rest of the season they very well could miss the playoffs yeah I get it seeds 4 through
12 in the west are all close in the standings only five games SE separate the 12th and the fourth seed but the difference is the Warriors have a very dysfunctional roster they don’t fit well together you have these conflicting timelines of trying to win now to maximize step still playing at a high
Level but at the same time also trying to develop your young Talent they don’t have enough scoring or at least a consistent and reliable number two option like they’ve had in years past their defense is terrible bottom 10 in the NBA like you get it this team isn’t
Going anywhere and for a team that was hoping to make one last title push or at least to remain competitive before step starts to decline this is a team that is desperate to make changes a team that absolutely needs to shake up their roster to try and save their season and
You’re probably thinking why are we talking about the Warriors here isn’t this a bulls Channel well income the Chicago Bulls and capitalizing on the Warriors desperation and trying to salvage what looks like a Lost season and yes I’m talking about trading for Zack cavine what is an ideal trade look
Like that would make sense for both parties well let’s talk about it but first the Bulls have a game later today against the struggling Charlotte Hornets hopefully they can get another win and going into the game you know I always like making predictions and if you like making predictions on player stats then
You know Underdog fantasy is the best place to do it for those that aren’t familiar with Underdog let me tell you about the app and my personal favorite that I use on the app NBA pick thems with pick thems you can pick higher or lower on player stats and win money
Based on the ones you get right you pick higher or lower you can win up to 20 times your money in a single night if you do five pick thems and you get them all right if you think white is going to score more than 17 points tonight which
Based on how he’s been playing more recently could very well likely be the case select hire and you can win some money and guys they’re offering viewers of this channel an exclusive offer if you use the promo code bull Central you’ll get your first deposit doubled up

Making now we’ve been talking about trades trade scenarios trade rumors for a while now ever since it came out that both Zack line and the Bulls would be open to moving him in a trade we’ve been firing up the trade machine for a while we’ve seen some great trades from people
Some ridiculous ones and everything in between but if the days go on and Zach Still Remains with the bulls it seems more and more likely that this is going to be a scenario in which the Bulls will have to wait until closer to the trade deadline to see which teams are out
There that are going to be desperate enough to make a big splash that they would potentially overpay for Zach because all the reports recently have been saying that there really isn’t market for Zack LaVine teams are not interested in trading for this guy and while I still think that’s BS to say
That there is no market for him because there’s always going to be market for an All-Star caliber player who is a highly efficient scorer and in his prime it sound like we’re dealing with a player who is in his mid-30s here it may not be the type of return the Bulls expect but
There is not going to be a situation in which no teams are going to be interested in Zack LaVine if it means they can get him for pennies in the dollar obviously as Bulls fans we hope that’s not the case and that the Bulls will be able to get a decent return turn
For him but I’m more so just saying that some team would bite on Zach if it means they don’t have to give up a lot to get him now a few outlets and writers have mentioned that the Warriors are a team to watch out for in making a play at
Zack LaVine I believe they referred to the Warriors as a dark horse to get LaVine because everyone seems to be of the belief that it’s going to be the Lakers who land Zach and while I still don’t think Zach really makes the Warriors that much better they would be
A better team and he would be a solid second option behind Steph Curry which they need getting Zach is not going to suddenly make them title condemners though but I wouldn’t be surprised if the Warriors think they’re getting Zack LaVine and that suddenly changes their Fortune so what would a trade look like
Well I’ve got a few but I want to start with what I personally think would be the most ideal realistically ideal that is for both sides because we would love it if the Warriors sent us all their young players and three first round picks but that’s not going to happen but
I do think something like this could work again depending on how desperate the Warriors actually get and the trade is actually pretty simple the Bulls would get Chris Paul for salary matching purposes and Jonathan kaminga for Zack LaVine and I know right away some are
Going to say I’m out of my mind if I think that’s the best return the Bulls can get for Zack LaVine and I believe I suggested a trade a while back that also included Chris Paul and I had so many people in the comments saying Chris Paul
Makes no sense for the Bulls why would we ever bring in more old players when this team needs to start thinking about their future oddly enough trading for Chris Paul is actually keeping the Bulls future more in mind than by adding kaminga including Chris Paul in a trade
Does not mean that this is a play to try and get the Bulls to win now Chris Paul is 38 years old he’s on the brink of retirement but what people forget is one Chris Paul is effectively on an expiring deal I know he still technically has a
Year left on his contract after the season but it’s not guaranteed only this year is guaranteed the Bulls wouldn’t keep Paul Beyond this season this would effectively remove Zack lavine’s Max salary money off of their books for the future freeing up all that cap space which is what makes this important for
Their future but more importantly you know who was one of Kobe White’s biggest mentors a big Advocate since he was a kid and one of his friends yes Chris Paul and even though CP3 is washed he still can be a great mentor a great leader for Kobe white in helping his
Overall development and progression which the Bulls could greatly benefit from to have one of the greatest point guards to ever play the game be on the bench and mentoring coaching Kobe white on a nightly basis and not even just Kobe white but really for the rest of
The team so no guys I’m not suggesting that the Bulls get Chris Paul as this has been Allstar to get the Bulls to the playoffs but more so to get Zach’s money off of their books for the future and have a smart Savvy veteran point guard
For Kobe white to learn from and then of course Jonathan kaminga I mean that’s really the prize if you want to call it that well I still have my doubts on whether kaminga is going to be an All-Star level player in this league he has shown a lot of flashes of his
Potential at such a young age super athletic fast solid on offense size and strength that the Bulls need and he’s a young player that they could use as a piece to develop for the future and I’m throwing in kaminga because it has come out publicly that he hasn’t been very
Pleased with Steve Kerr and losing faith in him as a coach that can properly develop and utilize him to the best of his strengths and if kaminga and Steve Kerr don’t have a good relationship or it’s a relationship that’s beyond repair you likely could see kaminga on the Move
Now I’m sure there will be comments about not including any picks in this deal again you have to remember Zach’s value his trade market around the league is not very high getting a young stud like kaminga and salary relief for Chris Paul is actually a solid return like we
Have to expect that the Bulls are more than likely not going to win this trade but even getting a younger player with potential is beneficial in my eyes than just moving him for a bunch of average players and expiring contracts that said though I do have a couple of other trade
Packages that would include picks in fact multiple picks and that’s because the Bulls are also attaching Alex guso to the deal you guys have heard me say before as much as I’m in the minority in this opinion I don’t believe that it makes sense to trade Al Caruso unless
You get a team that is willing to overpay for him like above and beyond his value because well yes I get that it doesn’t make sense to keep Caruso if you don’t see this team win winning anytime soon and Caruso’s trade value is also at an alltime high I do think though that
There is something to be said about creating the right culture winning mentality and a strong leader and voice in the locker room and that’s what you get in Alx guso there is value to having a player like that whether you’re competing for a title rebuilding or
Somewhere in between but in a trade like this and also knowing that a team like the Warriors have expressed interest in kuso a player that would immediately upgrade their defense and their depth overall I do think a team like that would over pay for him so in this
Scenario we would have the Bulls trading Zach and Caruso for Klay Thompson kaminga and two first round picks in 2026 and 28 the reason I included Thompson here is you actually need his higher salary to get the trade to be successful if you are also including
Alex guso also even though Clay is a bit washed himself and wildly inconsistent he’s still a great catch and shoot shooter and something the Bulls could use in a player who plays more off the ball alongside Demar Rosen and again expiring contract so the Bulls don’t have to keep him round Beyond this
Season and they get off of Zach’s contract for the future they get kaminga who we already talked about as a Young Piece they can build with and two first round picks and mind you those picks could be very juicy considering by 26 and 28 this could very well be a
Rebuilding Warriors team with curry likely and retirement by that point so yes this would be a deal I would do if you’re including Alex Kusa because it would set the Bulls up very nicely for the future now if you don’t want clay but you still want kaminga the two picks
Then there is also this one where you would have Chris Paul but also Gary P pton I don’t like this deal as much because pton has been very injury-prone and still has one more year left on his contract after this but pton is actually a solid defensive player Big Time
Hustler like Caruso but older and not as strong of a shooter as someone like Caruso is I still would take this because I’m more focused on the two first round picks in kaminga but would prefer something like Klay Thompson to just have one expiring contract and also
Klay is a bigger name who still has some gas left in the tank and provides the bull shooting which they need so anyway do I think any of these trades would be likely to happen probably not maybe the first one but I say probably not because
I still think the Bulls are going to overvalue Zach like they have in the past and not strike on a deal if they think they’re being low balled but let me know what you guys think of these trades let me know in the comments as always be sure to subscribe and I’ll see
You in the next one

I'd love me some Kuminga.
If that happened I think a cosch like d-ntoni would be ideal for a year or two.
Just run n gin and pray white, Williams and kuminga blow up. Use the draft for an athletic 5 to replace vuc.
Use money on 3 ans D vets
I just need somebody to take him off our hands, goddamnit.😂
I like your reasoning for Chris Paul because it's looking possible that Coby White could be a gem. I always thought the Bulls should have picked up Derrick Rose for that same reason. And clearing up money is huge because of our tight a– Bull's management. Trade number two, Thompson, Kaminga and two 1st round picks would be overpayment, and I agree that's the only way I would feel comfortable trading Alex Caruso. But in this trade we would not be replacing the lost leadership and energy that Caruso brings. Finally, I'm hoping Lavine upgrades his attitude and helps the Bull's climb the standings ladder. Perhaps that would increase his trade value.
Let me speak some common sense into yals Fantasy World. There is absolutly no way in hell option 2 or 3 is happening. You think you're getting Kuminga who is a top 7 pick, a 26' and 28 that will both likely be TOP 5 picks? hahahahahahahahaha. Delusional!! The Warriors don't want to trade Kuminga in the first place. But he has the most value and upside. Even compared against your players and current draft position. If he gets traded it will be in a package for Lauri. Yal clearly dont want Lavine. Everyone knows it. You cant tank with him and he is 40 mil against the cap for 4 years. Warriors want Caruso but neither him or Zach are worth even 1 top 5 pick. So your only actually trade is more like CP3, Moody, GP2. You get to Tank, Salary Dump, Young wing who can play D, and a Mentor. But thats it. Sorry to be the barrier of bad news. In all likelihood you are stuck with Zach for 2 more years.
This is probably the best deal for the Bulls. The Lakers have nothing of value outside of Reeves, who they will not move. Bulls fans need to understand that they are NOT rebuilding. AK has made that crystal clear.
The value is getting off that huge contract. Chris Paul, and kaminga are great assets to trade for. They could move Paul to the lakers for huchimora and a couple of second round picks. I think the first iteration of the trade is the best package of this were to happen.
We don't need Paul to help white…whites fine…naw bro…that trade was horrible…I get clearing the books…but damn if thats all u get then u figure it out…keep zach till his damn value goes up or fuck it…
Trade P Will with either LaVine or DeRozan for a true 2 way PF.
Bro I want Brad or Trey Jackson
Naw…why not just try to trade Caruso for the 2 picks if that's the case…naw man naw naw…I live ur videos and I know we are in a bad spot but naw….u were right when u said we need to at least get a young player with high upside .if it's not that then we need picks…idk…but I hate both those ideas…
If they get a little win streak going and Zach plays a more passive role on offense (efficient 18 to 22 point games). Keep Zach this season. Trade in offseason. This season is already kind of a wash however his trade value could get better with patience if the internal relationships are repairing. Better for Zach, better for Bulls.
No Zach is fine with bulls
Y'all keep trying to trade to dump salary, knowing the bulls don't attract any big name free agents historically. So what are we saving money for? Just to have it?
I do like the first trade bc Zach’s trade value has been so low but I think you can get a little bit more bc if kuminga wants out his value will be hampered as well but good trades
GS already said they're not looking to trade Kuminga, so I doubt we get him.
Blockbuster trade: Zach Lavine, Nikola Vucevic, and someone like Dalen Terry for Chris Paul, Klay Thompson, Kuminga, and Moody
Chris Paul is NOT "one of the greatest point guards to ever play the game" of basketball. Chris Paul has never won a Championship. And he most likely never will.
I really don’t care which scenario as long as we end up with 2 1st round picks out of it
I think that if the warriors added Moses moody than we would definitely accept this trade
Lavine isn’t a difference maker.
Imagine aiming for Kuminga and getting Draymond
Caruso is TOO important, the team as a whole literally gets an emotional lift when he checks in to the game, you can see it
The Chicago bulls should get rid of DeMar and Zack I am not saying build around Nicola but you can put solid pieces around him and make a good team
I understand your logic about trading for chris paul, but i don't see him willing to stick around if he was dealt to a team like the bulls. he'd want a buyout and then sign with a contender.
Def not tryna see LaVine with gsw they don’t need no one else to help them try to win another chip let they ass rot i’m sorry … I’d love for us to trade him to the kings for monk Nd huerter Nd maybe a pick or so Nd if we have to send caruso to the hawks as much as i hate them for Dejounte Murray
not as good assa defender as AC but is good enough Nd issa better scorer🤷🏽♂️ but ion know i just hope we don’t come out lookin slow asl after a trade as we usually do🙏🏽
Trade for Klay
Klay we can use as a 1 year rental
Then we can dump Klay and we are freed up from big contract
If Zach can play more off ball catch and shoot style he can coexist until his contract expire
I don’t understand why everybody want Levine traded so bad
Good old Bulls central. Ol Reliable I call it
“ Draymond Green unhinged”😂😂
I think alex caruso is the only player untouchable on the bulls
Would rather have the Kings as a trade partner over GS and LA
Getting Klay, Paul and future pick(s) is a good return for Zach. Klay is nowhere near his prime, neither is Paul, but they could definitely assist with the culture aspect of what the Bulls are doing. So many people underestimate what good culture can do for a franchise.
i don't get this "free cap space". what are Bulls do with it? does any superstar want to sign with Bulls? we need to get a young player and a 1st round pick, minimum for Zach. I would do Caruso for Kuminga + 2 picks. if Warriors are desperate, they will offer better deal!
WE WANT DRAYMOND!!!
