Would It Benefit The Bulls To Trade Down In the 2024 Draft?
you found yourself on another episode of Locked on trades I mean uh locked on bulls uh on today’s episode yeah I mean a lot of trade talk going on with the bulls we’re talk about if the Bulls should instead of being looking looking to trade up maybe should they trade down and back in this draft and gain some more assets we’re also going to look at an interesting uh pistons and P will trade idea and could Alex Caruso go to the Philadelphia 76ers talk about it all and more on today’s locked on bulls [Music] you are locked on bulls your daily Chicago Bulls podcast part of the locked on podcast

and you did a a good job yesterday separating TR what trading up means and getting an additional draft pick higher in the draft which are two very different things you keep your own pick in one yeah what do you think about the prospect of the Bulls trading up and the reason why this is kind of an important one is that the biggest position of need right now for the Chicago Bulls is center now if DeMar rosen walks and you trade Zack LaVine a wing could become just as highly coveted in that and maybe the draft dictates something with that but this is a draft that is deep at the wing position is deep at power forward in Center position but if the Bulls are planning on primarily running most of this roster back Center is probably the biggest need and most of the centers are probably slated to go anywhere between like 15 and 2025 what do you think about the prospect of the Bulls trading back in this draft rather than up I guess the only question I’d have is how much value is trading back going to get you I mean realistically speaking we’re talking about trading a guy like Alex kuso who’s a very good player but we’re talking about trading him for you know for the number three overall pick like there’s not many drafts in this that you can go in and say hey we’ve got Alex Caruso give us the number three overall pick we’ll give you something else on it but mostly what you’re getting is Alex Caruso that’s not going to happen most times right yeah no this is one of the only drafts that would ever possibly happen and so I think because of that you have to ask yourself is it worth it to trade back because what are you realistically getting yes you may be able to go back and maybe get some more draft capital and get some depth but am I getting you know a future first round pick from the Lakers like I guess like give me that give me that pick you know four years down the road maybe I’ll feel a little bit better about it but like what am I what am I getting back in the deal there there’s not going to be a ton to get you for1 when Alex Caruso can get you the number three overall pick potentially or right like we’re gonna talk about in this in this Pistons trade IDE then we get to that right there’s opportunity to go get you know higher draft capital for players that have been primarily role players so I think that to me that makes it tough to say trading back is the right move not that there’s not good role players back there that if you trade back maybe you get a little bit of uh uh you get a good player and you get some more capital on top of it it’s always good to add but I just I I don’t see that being a great get for the number 11 overall pick this season yeah I mean and that goes back I guess to the point of we talking about necessarily trading back or maybe using some asset to acquire a a lower pick in this draft which would be a completely different Prospect I I wouldn’t mind if like in the Zack LaVine trade not necessarily it’s the focus of the Zack LaVine trade but maybe in the Zack LaVine trade you you get a you get a low pick as part of that I wouldn’t be mad at it now trading back I don’t think H this this is a draft where teams are trying to trade out of the top 10 because they think that they can get equal value pretty much lower in the draft so the prospect to trading back I get it and I think people have in in some other drafts maybe maybe you can get more assets but even then trading back in the NBA draft is not like trading back in the NFL draft where you get a lot of assets for trading back it’s just never been that way maybe you can get a back into the bench player maybe you can get a heavily protected future pick or something like that but that’s if you’re trading up high 11 while not low it’s not high enough in this type of draft where you’re looking at probably getting a lot of assets back for trading back and I think that’s the biggest thing you’re talking about trading back for when when you’re at 11 right now especially in in this what are you doing to improve the team yes you may get another pick yes maybe you get right I I guess I could see it more if there was a player but even then right like you’ve got to match salaries you’ve gota you’ve gotta mat like the Bulls don’t have the cap space to to take on just a player coming in four pick so you’re still trading a player anyway with the 11th overall pick it makes it tough you I mean like it it’s it’s not a prospect I would be out on but like I’d be having to get at least somebody that I know already in the league is a legitimate role player back so that I know I’m getting something because I just don’t feel like you’re getting a I don’t feel like you’re getting much for the 11th overall pick right now and it’s it’s more worth it to me to stay in Pat and just take a player that you feel is there or move up than to move back now the only way that I could see the Bulls getting a lck back and we wouldn’t know this before like as the Draft starts this would have to go if somebody drops at number 11 that a team three four spots back is like oh crap we really didn’t think they dropped this far we absolutely have them as number one on our board let’s try to move up and get them maybe in that case but then again you’re asking for that in a draft where it seems like most teams are pretty content in just taking a shot at whatever Talent is going to be there yeah that and that’s the problem like there’s always the The Hope right like if uh oh uh not Nicola topic ends up falling that far right after after everything yeah I could see something like that I I could see somebody going you know we’re willing to take a chance on his knee we feel like he’s a he’s a better player it’s a different time in medicine right now take Chan on their knees yeah hey [Laughter] yo y oh talk about praying bro whoa but no I just uh I just feel like if if you’re going to take a CH if you’ve got somebody like of that Talent where it’s like we saw what he was I can see the Bulls doing that and I’m not gonna lie if topic ended up falling to us at that point BS gotta find a way to trade it I’m not taking a chance on another point guard with a bad Mee like we said too you can’t you can’t come in with a pre- torn ACL like that’s not what like cause it’s not like the Bulls can say we got acl’s at home no we don’t we have none here nothing for I don’t know man you know maybe they got a room where uh just the guy dead guys that Lonzo can keep getting his knee replaced from you know what I mean maybe there’s a room in the United Center of just bro you didn’t just say that of cadavers that that you can keep swapping out you didn’t just say that the Bulls have invested in kadav knes just for Lonzo Bal just well just based on our history here you got to keep a few extras around yeah me just they call it uh they call it the leg R it bro that was the dad joke of all dad jok actually that’s actually pretty funny you laugh though you chuckled oh yeah yeah listen that’s hilarious but here’s the thing ultimately I hope the Bulls are open to everything because let let let let’s just say for examp I’m just throwing a name out there I’m not saying he’s actually on the on the Bulls board but let’s say the Bulls do have for example a Eve Missy as the the one they’re looking at and they’re like no this is our center of the future play your cards right wait to the draft trade back and wait till the team calls you and say oh my God I mean yeah if you really want the number you know we were really planning on going ahead and keeping it but uh you know if you guys do want it you know we can part ways with it what do you what do you get like you gotta play it right that’s that’s part of your job as being a a GM and a president of basketball operation but you know per what we said yesterday this the the highest probability still fall that the Chicago Bulls do nothing and I think here’s the thing if if you know EES Messi is the the one thing that I do wonder about him is is his rebounding um but but definitely a talented player worry about his rebound he has a rebounding percentage when he’s on the court of like it’s like 26% or so he just doesn’t play many minutes that’s why the numbers are low I mean I hear you 22 minutes 22 minutes a game six rebounds all right you know I mean I watch get 11 that time every night cuz he he filed out by the time he get to 23 minutes you watch who I said I watched Jared Jackson get 11 by that time that’s in the NBA though it’s a little bit different you know how they attack stuff in uh in in college but I think with with uh Messi the biggest thing I’m concerned on is like bro why you only played over 20 minutes like five times like what what’s the conditioning looking like there you know what I mean that that’s that’s a big question too but I think here’s here’s my thing if you identify a guy and you say he is our whatever of the future you shouldn’t be worried about whatever the backlash is of you taking them at 11 you shouldn’t be not worried about backlash I’m just saying if you can gain more assets while still getting your guy at this draft you take whoever your guy is but if a team calls and you’re like hey yeah we can still get him well and that’s and that’s that’s my thing right like if you I I guess in this draft if you identify somebody because it’s different in a in a different draft right like if you’re you go back to the P will draft right oh if we miss out on P will darn it we missed out on Patrick Williams well you know Tyrese halberton Tyrese Maxi Devon Vell are some names that maybe we could take a look at there was still options to me in this draft you identify somebody as your whatever of the future you don’t play around with it and even chance that somebody can get it because I don’t know how many of those players are in this draft now to be fair that’s what they said about the 2020 draft but exactly I I I think that it it does make it a little bit more urgent if you identify that guy and he gets to you because I I just wouldn’t risk it like I get adding more assets I’d be fine with it but there’s not I would say you’re going to get a ton of role players out of this draft I don’t see I don’t even know if I see the number one pick as a superstar we’ll see bro like I said 20120 draft was lated to be a very weak draft a lot of those players turned out really good I mean ultimately it comes down to like you said whoever you have is number one on your board if you really see them their potential of being a Transcendent player that actually turns into a star near star for you just take them like just take them yeah I I that’s that’s where I’m at at this point because and can the draft get here any quicker my God I’m I mean well we’re 15 days away from the draft so we’re almost there we’re almost there we’re almost there but the finals uh yeah I’m not mad at it I’m not we’ll see what they do should the boys trade down let us know in the comments yeah yeah next up though we’re going to be talking about some trade uh uh potential this one uh you know potential PE will trade with the Pistons don’t like it but we’ll talk about it uh but summertime means baseball the NBA finals and more you can bet it all on FanDuel right now new customers

nope but I uh I watched Andre Galo win Finals MVP against LeBron when when he was playing lock down defense Dam isn’t playing lockdown defense Hey listen Bry still put up 30 plus like he played good defense but like 30 plus is nuts efficiency bro you kill me always looking at just the numbers the efficiency it was one of LeBron’s worst efficient finals but visit fanduel.com lockon and add Big Win to your summer bucket list FanDuel M’s number one Sportsbook visit fanduel.com uh today and uh fanduel.com locked on and add a big win to your summit bucket list yeah that was a stroke that was definitely stroke all right Pat we got some trade ideas up here bro you’ve been you’ve been scouring the net uh I I love that this comes from non Bulls sources as well that way if Bulls fans get pissed off by this we can easily say hey this is them coming over with that that’s not us it’s not us uh yes no that that I think I think that is what what made it’s what made the article more interesting to me when I was sitting there looking through it and I wish I had saved the article instead of just screenshotting it um but uh I I screenshotted this trade this from a Pistons blog um and it has a Detroit Pistons draft trade with Chicago Bulls Chicago Bulls would receive the fifth overall pick in the 2024 draft and the 53rd overall pick in the 2024 draft and the Pistons get Patrick Williams and the 11th overall pick in the 2024 draft Hayes what say you would you make this move I’m not as in in in in the toilet as you are and Patrick Williams um I don’t I don’t hate the deal but I don’t really like it either because to me unless technically we can’t even make that trade because we’re not able to trade Patrick Williams right now while he’s a restrictive free agent we can’t trade him before the draft we got to wait till free a restrict uh free agency so it’s like unless they’re making the pick for you and you have a kind of a preconceived deal there I just get number five moving up from number 11 to me I’m kind of just fine staying at number 11 nothing else that we’re getting in that trade really entices me very much but I’m sure you’re more in on it I mean listen here’s my thing this is from Pistons powered by the way that was the uh blog that uh that put this out Tyler Dutton on the on the article here um I thought that this was interesting to me because it it does speak to a shift and and this was all based around people trying to trade up for Donovan kinging it does put you in a position if you if you wanted to trade up and go get Donovan kingan where you’d be ahead of the team that is projected to take him right now probably is the Portland Trail Blazers so they would have to move up above you to get to him um I which I don’t foresee them doing because they’ve traded enough assets on this uh on this whole thing already um but I I think that realistically you’re trying to find something that’s actually going to hit for your future and so you’re taking a chance on something that maybe I know we’re down on this draft but maybe a guy who is a back-to-back uh uh um National Champion winner maybe a guy who has shown on the defensive end he can show that defensive prowess maybe a guy who has shown consistently that he can get himself involved offensively and run the floor really well you take a chance on him especially as a seven-footer over the guy who’s been in the NBA three years and has basically shown you kind of the same thing over those last three seasons yes as has his percentage has improved uh for sure has he um absolutely improved from the three-point line for sure but his mindset and his confidence in his game has not improved and I think that’s that’s something that to me going out if you’re going to go after a player like Donovan kinging in a trade like this there’s no lack of Confidence from him right now coming off his second National Championship where we we we just we just want pet we like shoot dog like just do it like you’re better at it do it and and that’s that’s tough to teach out of guys so I’d be in favor of this trade I mean listen I I can understand I mean when you when you throw in the Donovan kingan aspect of it I like I said I I I’m just not I’m welmed by the trade is what it is this is what it is I’m not over you’re not a c guy either you’re not actually like clinging a lot I actually do like clinging a lot in this draft he he he I I like him I think that he has more upside than what people give him as a score because he was on that Yukon team that likeed to spread the ball around and for the people who constantly always talk about well Zack e well he dominated him in the who won that game and also by the way let’s not act like we didn’t see some players that that outplayed Derrick Rose in college and Derrick Rose end up being a better player then so that that let not act like Zack Eed wasn’t absolutely gassed in that game too yeah so like I’m not too worried about that but uh I mean it’s not that I don’t like Donovan cling it’s just like there are other centers that I like other in this draft to where you’re not giving up the 11th and Patrick Williams but like I said I I guess that’s on how you view Patrick Williams as a 22- year old player he still could be in this draft there’s a lot of 22 year old players in this draft so I still think that there’s a lot of untapped potential in Patrick Williams where just dumping him off to move up five spots and give up your own pick I just it’s like I said it’s not it’s not the best case scenario Ario for me but I mean if you see Don if you see Clingan being that guy I mean I can’t be mad at it if it works out I think that’s the question for me though right it’s it’s what do you feel like the ceiling of both players is to me the ceiling of Patrick Williams at this point is like dog like get to the point where Andrew Wiggins was like become OT Porter Jr that half a season that he was good those you I mean like like like that’s really like to me that’s the ceiling that we’re hoping for from can we get to John salmon you remember that season that John salmon John salmon season you know what I mean get to John S like I think that’s the that’s the part for me where if you’ve already identified and and to me I have that that’s the ceiling of a player then I need to take chances on players that possibly could have a higher ceiling and I I think D I mean back toback NES he’s the Catalyst of both of them I I think there’s more of a ceiling there and there’s we we’ve seen that type of player already work in the league we should have drafted him when we took D and Terry like we didn’t even have to be here right now we didn’t have to be here to right there he was right there you didn’t have to trade up you didn’t have to trade down you know there’s a story that’s going to come out where Walker’s going to be like no I thought I was a bull oh yeah you know it’s coming you know it’s in about six years absolutely bro no you know what it’s GNA be when he hits restrictor free agency for the first time and he takes a meeting with the bulls and he’s going to yeah you know I I thought I was going to be a Bull in that draft you know I was really ready to become a Chicago Bull it made sense I was looking forward to learning behind Nicol lavich for a year and every Bulls f is just gonna be flipping tables son of no yeah I just I I feel like we we’ve seen that type of player work and now if you give him more of a role more of the hey you know if if you play well especially between him and Kobe white this is your team I just I think it’s kind of time to take a chance on that and I’m not going to lie I know this is a stretch right I know this a but you try to connect it to like Bulls players that you’ve seen before there’s there’s a lot of Doubt on joem Noah coming in and these resumes are very similar yeah but the difference is though all honesty Connecticut in Florida let’s be also the difference is that we knew that Joe Kim Noah wasn’t a scorer right yeah yeah we knew that like nobody even in the highest projections projected jokim know to be a scorer Donovan kingan still has potential untapped as a score so for that comparison that you bring I get what you’re getting at with that for sure I’m just saying like the resume now scoring wise yes Donovan kinging you would you would expect a little bit more from offensively although my my thing I expect more from on the rim protection side as as a rim protector as somebody down low that’s that’s where I’m looking for I mean what is almost two blocks per game oh yeah oh yeah that like that but that’s what I’m saying I I would expect more on the defensive end than I would on the offensive like if he came came in his rookie season and he he puts up Patrick Williams statline but he protects the paint that that would be a win in that trade for me right that 10 and a half points a game yeah you got rebound more than P will but like 10 and a half points per game in two blocks yeah I mean if you made that trade with the pistons pistons trading with the Pistons they’re not going to develop them that’s the one thing we do know they’re not going to develop that that eliminates the concern of him being developing elsewhere I see what what if Lynch pin for them what what if like see that’s and see that that would be the thing is that we trade Patrick Williams for Donovan Clingan and and it’s like then it’s like Patrick Williams is this is this point for that they’re operating everything off of and and like come on Kade Kade is able now to to play off ball and all of a sudden he like that’s exactly stress make 350 million bro that’s nuts to me I love it I love the the the pist is about to just be like who else we going to pay man got nobody else hey man before we get into this final topic where an Alex Caruso trade is very gross and this the first time I’ve said this about a cruso trade in this offseason so uh but we got to break down uh better help before we get into that top because this sponsor this podcast is sponsored by better help you know me and Hayes are both big proponents of

solid it was solid we had some solid ones this one is like uh are you just trying to give up give get like just give them up that’s not what we’re trying to do here like I think people kind of missed the bucket there on what we’re trying to do go ahead Pat with the trade yeah this one comes from phillyvoice.com it basically is saying that hey y’all got to give up anyway that’s pretty much what I’m getting from the article here uh but they make the uh the the trade offer for the Bulls basically giving up Alex Caruso to the Sixers in a trade uh and they would likely need to send back Paul Reed they say if Chicago’s front office finally comes to the realization that it needs to rebuild it could do a whole lot worse than trading an expiring contract of Caruso for Reed let’s start there we can do so much better I like Paul Reed I do like Paul Reed I really like Paul Reed I wanted Paul I think he was was he a free agent last year or two years ago one of them where where I was like if we got Paul Reed I would not be mad as a backup center it’s last season I I I wouldn’t be mad at Paul Reed as a backup center I I wanted Paul Reed to be a bull last year but we can do a whole lot better than Paul Reed like come on now that’s that’s the that’s the start of this like that’s what’s wild about this and then it says a productive backup center with outstanding athletic tools who turns 25 this week he is very young and the number 16 pick number 11 is currently the only pick this year uh in this year’s draft owned by the Bulls the Sixers already owned Chicago second round pick slated for number 41 after quing acquiring it from the Boston Celtics in exchange for Jaden Springer so would you trade Alex Caruso for Paul Reed and the 16th overall pick didn’t a second round pick in that too right are they say they have our second round pick that was a flex I don’t know what like say here’s the thing here’s the thing they’d have to send that second round pick picking you know why I’m going to say that cuz that could be tan Shannon Jr he no now now I’m just see now if what does that do for you Pat if it’s if it’s again I don’t like the trade but if you are getting the number 11th you get your wing or your your new backup point there you get number 16 you can pick your Center there and you walk away with tan Shannon Jr in the second round here’s here’s my thing like why are we I’m not I’m not mad at it but why are we dangling Paul Reed like you know why though you know why if we being they don’t have anybody else on the roost they don’t have anybody else they can trade that’s basically what the balls down to they got they got four players under contract and one of them is a two-way player that they can’t trade so like it’s literally like uh who are your trade opers right now Paul Reed or Tyrese Maxi ex like so they got Joe embiid Paul Reese Tyreek uh Tyrese Maxi who they’re gonna technically they have an option on him they could decline the option but they’re going to pick up that option and Ricky Council the fourth how many Ricky councils were before this guy that were [Laughter] good yeah I’m not 41 is high in the second if you if you included that second I might be in on it that’s tough though that’s tough bro that’s tough that’s tough I don’t like it I’m not gonna let you be H I don’t like it 11 16 so at 11 you would take probably Phil well I mean like no no if at 11 you’re probably going to go one of whoever Falls between Tan Salon you probably go high upside there right yeah don’t you think maybe I mean maybe not Dotan connect falling it probably not he’s probably T probably well the thing is one of them is going to fall there one of between slum Mattis billis and and and connect one of them got to be there at number 11 I’ll tell you what I’ll tell you what just to talk about the last the other trade that was available as well although they did include 11 um I would take a chance on Cody Williams there if I get the 16th and I get that second I feel like I can get i’ take p on the roster I’m finding a way to trade P will but you know that’s just me that’s not AK you know what it would be crazy if you do that and then Cody Williams literally is just P will again you got but but I’m fine with that if we’re starting over again you know what I mean like I don’t know why it’s just mean I’m fine with it that’s I hey hey it’s the it’s the Bears conversation right I don’t gotta pay Cody Williams people will coming up for this money I ain’t gotta pay Cody Willam that’s fair that’s fair so yeah I mean but that i’ I’d be interested in that I’m not gonna lie and then you just got Paul Reed like Paul Reed’s cool I well Paul Reed Paul Reed takes over if you don’t resign Drummond or if you don’t find a way to resign Drummond if you don’t I just looked I just looked so a couple I just did a quick look some mocks do have Terence Shannon Jr going anywhere between 35 and 43 I swear I’d take him at 11 I don’t care with nobody I know you would bro now I will say this because the trial and everything is the trial’s going on now I would not be surprised if by the end of this week Terence shanon Jr’s back in the first round yeah um I was gonna say that by based on how it sounds like how people who know a heck of a lot more about how this trial is going to go than I do how it sounds like it’s going to go I would guarantee you if a not guilty verdict is put out there I I’ll say this Teran shanon junr becomes a lottery pick we may not be in the range for Taran Shannon Jr which may because the thing is we are a lottery pick well I’m that’s true I guess ter ter Shannon Jr will be a top five to eight pick I should say because I think people look people look at T shanon J and they’re like he’s talented we just got this case yeah like nobody looks at him was like he can’t play now it’s it’s it’s it’s unlikely the case is completely done and settled by in the two weeks into between now and the draft but in the case that it is they they return they come back not guilty dismiss whatever it is Karen Shannon jior isn’t going no lower than 20th in this draft and that’s just if the lottery teams are still like huh what if he does it again I’d be that’s all right get out of here follow us on everything not that he no hold on not that he did anything but what if he’s put in another weird situ like what if he finds himself in another weird situ had a correct I’m not saying he did anything that is not what I’m saying I just mean nwork listen as somebody who said there’s a lot of women who knows what pat on the back means I’m just saying understand hey hey hey I’m not on nobody’s back that’s now we got that you can’t take it away we got it on tape we have the recording of you saying it you can’t say allegedly when you said it we got proof that’s nuts bro that man said there are going to be some teams that think what if he doesn’t what the heck oh god oh oh that’s so wild oh send this out bro

Zach almost played whole game
If the Bulls can get a late first round pick by trading Lavine, I'd take Ryan Dunn.
Noah could guard and move his feet
Yes do that trade.
Ware at 16
Yes the chicago bulls should trade down .!
"What if he does it again" my god that was funny as hell. Thats a nut ass question.
If the Bulls aren't getting a player that they have enough faith in to put on the roster…and not ship off to the G-League for 2 seasons…they should make that move.
If the Bulls are going to do what they traditionally do and draft a player to boost G League attendance, go ahead and trade that pick.
If Caruso has to get traded, it better be for more than market value. Teams and players have a history of finessing our front office, it's getting old.
The Bulls need an identity and direction. All I want is to have a coherent roster by the time the season starts. Let's get a starting 5 with players in their natural positions and a bench that's doing the same. Enough of this SG/C crap.
Every day that goes by, I start feeling more and more foolish about letting PWill go. He's a 6'8, 3&D versatile wing player who shot 40% from 3 this past year as a 22 yo. If we let him go, we will spend the next three years trying to draft a player of that prototype. I know we've been waiting for like 4 years for his jump so we feel like it should have happened by now, 22 is still EXTREMELY young. Even if we sign him at 18M per year for four years (which he hasn't quite earned), we may feel like that's a steal two years from now when maybe he makes a bit of a jump at 24.
yay another episode trivialising sexual harassment for no reason. Couple more of these I'm gonna be a Dwight Howard fan, maybe people like him could help you understand better.
Pat Will ain't it and that won't change. The dude came off the bunch in college of a team with "0" NBA players.
Thank you haize for bringing up the context somewhat for iggy lol. Like we get it dude ain’t no superstar and won FMVP but I really feel like either people didn’t watch that finals or are just looking at the box score and rewriting history in their head. I remember everyone at the time did really understand iggy was that guy that really pushed that team over that series. It’s the fact he was doing near everything and maybe he just caught a hot streak for that series specifically but it was evident he stepped up his play and damn near every play from him was the right move on both sides of the ball.
That was comedy gold fellas had me dying laughing
What's crazy is our roster is set up right now to set us up for 5-10 years from now I'm ok with a really good soft reset not a hard reset ….. Like Vuc still being on this roster is wild to me
