Nikola Vucevic GONE… Reports Reveal Bulls SHOPPING Center | Bulls News
the NBA draft has passed and no trades were made by the Chicago Bulls however there is a new report that has surfaced that the Chicago Bulls are in fact now shopping their Center nicoa vuik so we are going to be talking about this very scenario that has come up with the Chicago Bulls and if this is a good time to move on from him so this is Rico greenhow and this is another episode of Bulls digest and before we jump into it want to let you know that 77.9% of you guys that watch the videos are not subscribed to the channel make sure you hit that subscribe button so you can stay up to date with the latest news and happenings around your Chicago Bulls and without further Ado guys let’s jump into it today and we are talking Nola vuik and if it is a good idea for the Chicago Bulls to go ahead and now look to trade him so initially when I saw this report guys I’m saying to myself no there’s no way we would want to trade our Center who shot 29% and our team was better with him off the floor and we have him to a not so good contract no way we would want to shop him of course we want to shop him guys and look the fact that we were not aggressive with shopping him I totally understand it because I think that the first thing that they wanted to do was to move on on from lavine’s contract I’ve said that a couple times on the channel That if they’re going to resign certain key players they were going to have to address what they were going to do with LaVine he’s like the biggest domino in this retool rebuild or whatever we’re particularly doing but you’re going to be able to find uh this particular article uh that I’m getting ready to bring up in Bleacher Nation and one of the quotes that is out there right now this was actually brought up by Matt Moore who actually uh went ahead and made this comment and I’m going to put it up in full context guys so you can see it because you probably see pieces of it uh in the article but anyway let me go ahead and start there so this is Bulls looking to move on from Vu uh this off season here um and again you can find this on Bleacher Nation but this is the full uh quote by Matt Moore all right and he was just saying that he was pretty skeptical uh of the trade being or taking place for the Chicago Bulls uh especially with the history of the bulls and being on this treadmill of mediocrity uh he also talks about the fact that um you know deardo Rosen is likely to hit the open market and he thinks that you know perhaps a reunion with the Clippers would be in line especially if Paul George moves on but this is the exact quote that everybody is talking about here the Bulls are known to be looking to move on from V along with the NeverEnding Zack LaVine Saga the Caruso trade both helps and hurts both those efforts because Caruso’s contract was uh a quality lubricant for teams willing to take on those contracts which Now isn’t available guys all right guys and so you know basically what he is saying here is that look a lot of people may have taken Vu on if we would have attached uh Caruso okay and so I totally get that you know I think there’s several reports that will tell you that the Chicago Bulls probably had a lot more things on the table with Caruso than they do with some of the individual pieces that they want to move on from which is LaVine and V all right and so I I totally get that agree with that um do I think that Vu is still movable absolutely I think he is still movable guys and we’re going to throw up a hypothetical trade as well and I I think that this is quite interesting this is Will goblet who is on chgo podcast he brings up an interesting thing that we could possibly do with Vu but I’m going to say before I throw this up guys that I think that yes Vu can absolutely be moved without assets necessarily I don’t think you have to put an asset like Caruso on is it going to be a terrible trade yes are we going to get a bag of chips back for it yes um you know are we going to get could we get like some second round picks or something like that I I think it’s possible you know me personally um you know for example just think about this if you have a young Center like um I I don’t know that just got drafted I’m just throwing them out there like say if it were Klean out there and you wanted to go ahead and you want to get rid of Aiden maybe you want to bring a guy like V over who you want to bring him in as a veteran you want him to to show the ropes to these guys or whatever the case may that’s a situation where it works um you know before Memphis made its move um you know with Zack Edy maybe still there’s something there where they would want to take vu over there to possibly uh maybe Mentor Zach Edy so I can start to see him in that type of role the only issue is with the amount of money that we have spent on Vu and you know that the team is going to take in it’s going to be tough to justify him coming off the bench for a lot of teams but anyway guys here’s a hypothetical trade which could work where we could move on from V and we could get an expiring uh deal here guys and so look this is what will godlet put up here he says look if the Bulls were to somehow let dear walk away then essentially what they could do is they could trade vu’s 20 million to the Warriors for CP3s 30 million and that would save the dubs a ton of money the Bulls can get an asset um that they get an expiring uh CP off of all right and so this was an example that was thrown out there again by Will from cgo podcast so look man I I think I think that deals like that are the deals that are probably going to have to be on the table if you’re looking to move on from V and if you’re looking to go more so into a rebuild and if I’m not mistaken I think that last season when Golden State got uh Chris Paul he first initially went over to Washington and then I think they went and got him from Washington from the for the Jordan pool deal so I don’t know if there’s a lot of interest for Chris Paul but maybe this is a deal where the Bulls make this and then there might be a team that is looking to contend uh that will give us a piece for uh Chris Paul you know I mean so I think that something like that does make sense other than that guys I think that you know our best thing to do here is going to be probably to try to get his value up and maybe get some second round picks out of him and so I’m not opposed to keeping him on the team uh for now until you know maybe the trade deadline or even before that and getting rid of V like I don’t think that he’s going to be in the way necessarily of developing a guy like Bellis um I think that you certainly can still have Soko on the roster and have him play as well it just means that you’re probably going to maybe cut into his minutes a little bit more um you know but he’s still going to be able to go out there and I think put up some numbers and get his value up and besides that guys a lot of different things can happen going into the trade deadline especially if you get um a team that feels like they’re right there and they feel like they can get to the NBA finals with a center or something like that um I don’t think it’s a far stretch to see you know a team maybe go after him like that so um you know that that’s a possibility as well guys so let me know what you guys are thinking in the comments guys do you feel like um you know a Vu deal to Golden State which was mentioned for Chris Paul we get an expiring deal maybe we flip that is a good idea do you feel like you know hey we can keep Vu on to Mentor buzz and also too to Mentor sonoko for a little bit we can build him up maybe the value a little bit more and then trade him a little bit closer to the trade deadline guys or do you feel like look we just got to get rid of this guy let’s just get rid of him for a bag of chips right now at this point in time I mean he’s that terrible and to be honest with you guys look I know he played pretty badly last season but the one thing I will give you about Vu is that he did average a double double now how he did that it was on a bunch of empty calories but still I’m pretty sure there are some teams right now in the league that would love to have a guy even if it’s on a decline that gets you a double double until they can figure out what they are going to do so let me know guys even though it looks like we might be in this whole Margo round of Are We trading them are we not trading them I’m still saying go Bulls guys and I’ll see you on the next one peace peace peace peace guys peace

I would like if we could somehow package Lonzo's contract with Vooch and maybe get Chris Paul, and looney or Wiggins in return.
It’s hard to believe anyone would trade for Vooch. Even G-League Unite said “No thanks”.
The Center market in the draft was insane. Guys with Late 2nd Rd Grades going Top 10. Bulls I'm sure had offers.
Trading Vooch, Getting Walker Kessler, and atleast breaking even should be the Bulls Goal
No they had Top 10 picks offered for Vooch so they think his value is high. Noooo That was this draft. Those offers are now off the table.
20mil is gonna be the exception in a few years
Get his ass outta here asap show his ass da exit
Bulls need a center that produces 15 points 10 rebounds game consistently
