Wow that's not much back for Lavine to the Bulls

tmackey33.bsky.social•28 days ago

They get rid of the contract & can go full tank as they have their pick back.

It isn't tremendous, but they couldn't move him last year at all.

brianjackson.ca•28 days ago

Yeah clearly they were just giving up on getting real value for him.

rosymn.bsky.social•28 days ago

They just desperately wanted to get rid of his contract. Absolute win for them.

mitchellorin.bsky.social•28 days ago

pretty good trade for all 3 teams imo

ijspurcell.bsky.social•28 days ago

Eh pretty rough for the Bulls.

mitchellorin.bsky.social•28 days ago

Market for lavine was obviously not good. Getting his contract off the books and getting their pick back so they can fully tank now is decent enough.

prutherford77.bsky.social•28 days ago

A lottery pick for Zach is a pretty good trade for the Bulls.

thetyrone.bsky.social•28 days ago

They’re not getting a lottery pick. The pick was already heavily protected so it would’ve been theirs if it fell in the top ten.

mitchellorin.bsky.social•28 days ago

ah I missed that, oh well still decent just to get him off the books. it doesn't seem like anyone wanted lavine.

def not a great trade for the bulls, but gives them the ability to do full rebuild now. if I were a bulls fan I'd want them to move vuc before the deadline.

thetyrone.bsky.social•28 days ago

The pick is top 10 protected this year and top 8 protected the two years after that. Then it conveys to a second rounder. So basically they traded LaVine for a 2028 second rounder. Which is rough. But Zach also has basically no value with his contract.

prutherford77.bsky.social•28 days ago

Forgot about the protection. At least it adds the ability to make further moves if the pick didn't convey.

basketghoul.bsky.social•28 days ago

Three first and three second!!

ijspurcell.bsky.social•28 days ago

Really two firsts and five seconds, but yeah, not bad

paintnpdx.bsky.social•28 days ago

Crazy return.

markrussellpereira.bsky.social•28 days ago

That Charlotte pick won't convey as a first.

rgiss.bsky.social•28 days ago

The bulls pick going back to CHI too though

paintnpdx.bsky.social•28 days ago

Yes that’s a good move for them.

paintnpdx.bsky.social•28 days ago

Oh good. The tweet obviously is missing protections.

hecubus01.bsky.social•28 days ago

Yeah the Charlotte picks is protected 1-14 & if not conveyed it turns into 2 seconds. One in 2026 & 2027.

justdancer25.bsky.social•28 days ago

Go Spurs Go!

reidapaciencia.bsky.social•28 days ago

Zach Lavine is a great player on a bad contract

mdandva.bsky.social•28 days ago

Spurs keeping Castle/Vassell is good for them too. Does CP get moved?

grizzo13.bsky.social•28 days ago

i don’t understand why the bulls did this other than just taking any offer for levine…?

nikodad33.bsky.social•28 days ago

……. The Bulls got nothing……..

alexandercrummell.bsky.social•28 days ago

They got off of Zach’s contract.

sanslesautres.bsky.social•28 days ago

They just swapped the Zachs

nikodad33.bsky.social•28 days ago

An all time bad Zach swap lmao

sanslesautres.bsky.social•28 days ago

They have a fetish what can you say. Vucevic for Zach Edey will stun the league!

nikodad33.bsky.social•28 days ago

Bro I’ll trade Vooch for Zac Effron if that’s what it takes lol

jiggystutz.bsky.social•28 days ago

Absolute haul for the Kings. That 2031 from Minnesota could be crazy valuable

domcorleone28.bsky.social•28 days ago

😂😂 Bulls omg what you doing?! Literally got marbles in return

prutherford77.bsky.social•28 days ago

A lottery pick for Zach is a pretty good trade for the Bulls.

domcorleone28.bsky.social•28 days ago

True, just difficult to celebrate when it was your own pick to start

waggoes.bsky.social•28 days ago

Kings didn’t get their own unprotected pick swap back?

arizonaboys.bsky.social•28 days ago

I see why niggas be playing with switches

gottahavajava.bsky.social•28 days ago

Sac really gets 2 firsts and 5 seconds

alexfrompgh.bsky.social•28 days ago

No 2nd round picks for the Jazz huh?

robfike.com•28 days ago

Demar and Zach back on the same team 😂

zweezyrider.bsky.social•28 days ago

Expect the Kings to disappear into obscurity for 3 years.

iyarasta.bsky.social•28 days ago

who?

kairihoho.bsky.social•28 days ago

The Bulls got pretty much nothing but the Kings won that trade with me with Fox especially with all the added Picks.

prutherford77.bsky.social•28 days ago

They got a lottery pick for a guy they have been desperate to move.

kairihoho.bsky.social•27 days ago

Won't move the needle for the Team though but yeah they needed to get rid of him

zombiefrog.bsky.social•28 days ago

INVESTIGATE NICO!!! #MFFL

michaelsbones.bsky.social•28 days ago

Even though the Kings are gonna pay Zach $46M next year, they save money since they traded Fox AND Huerter ($55M combined salaries).

So they got LaVine, save money next year, and got 6 draft picks...Kings won this trade easily.

jkat1959.bsky.social•28 days ago

I’m a huge Kings fan and I think the Kings did OK but they did not get the best picks from San Antonio and San Antonio gave up none of their core players so while the Kings did OK, San Antonio killed it.

tripgomez.bsky.social•28 days ago

Spurs are a contender now...

youngglass.bsky.social•28 days ago

Spurs too

youngglass.bsky.social•28 days ago

Love this for the kings

lokenlives77.bsky.social•28 days ago

Bulls in full tank mode

dkr84.bsky.social•28 days ago

The Chicago Bulls have officially given up. They traded Zach LaVine for scraps.

zweezyrider.bsky.social•28 days ago

Which is about 3x more than he’s worth. Got the dollar store superstar off the books. Good luck, Kings, he’s an offense killer.

danielspooner.bsky.social•28 days ago

Get the salary out and rebuild

lmoneyfresh.bsky.social•28 days ago

They were never going to get much back. They win by getting that contact off the team.

khanstipated.bsky.social•28 days ago

The Charlotte first won't covey and will turn into 2 2nds. The San Antonio first will be in the 20s. The Minnesota pick is the only that's worth fuck all.

Spurs absolutely fleeced the Kings.

justdancer25.bsky.social•28 days ago

Gave up nothing. We keep our core. Jones was expendable with Fox coming over. Collins is just a rotational big and cissoko is filler.

jcomps.bsky.social•28 days ago

The bulls fo is killing me bro

dmahno.bsky.social•28 days ago

I was worried at first but after some thinking, this seems like a good haul for Fox's 1.5 years under contract. Looking forward to seeing a starting 5 of Monk, LaVine, DeRozan, Murray, Sabonis #Kings

universe2andy.bsky.social•28 days ago

So the best asset the Kings got was a shot at Minnesota being bad in 2031?

bbwave2024.bsky.social•28 days ago

Solid backcourt for the next most of a decade with Fox and Castle.

slamdunkley.bsky.social•28 days ago

Did the Kings get a better return for Fox than Dallas did for Luka? Lmao.

blackmr.bsky.social•28 days ago

Bro, they got AD. What is this slander?

aerabit.neocities.org•28 days ago

Yeah, a thirty one year old injury prone big man, along with one whole pick. Good luck with AD in 4 years

blackmr.bsky.social•28 days ago

I'm a Lakers fan...I'm happy, but AD is fucking incredible

treasy.bsky.social•27 days ago

When he plays

aerabit.neocities.org•28 days ago

I’m not saying AD isn’t good. He’s great. But he’s aging, and if the Mavs are worried about durability and longevity, this is about the worst possible move.

persianx6.bsky.social•28 days ago

Ehh, AD is great but he didn’t ever reach his full potential.

And Luka just made a finals.

They should’ve gotten more picks.

blackmr.bsky.social•28 days ago

I agree I guess. But max Christie mark my words is also already good and getting better. This is not as bad a trade as people on the internet are saying. Don't get me wrong, I'm super happy as a lakers fan but the reaction does feel a bit out of touch.

dptbirder.bsky.social•28 days ago

They’re not planning for 4 years

Nico said future for him is 3 years 😂

aerabit.neocities.org•28 days ago

That’s even worse 💀

dptbirder.bsky.social•28 days ago

💀

I literally spit out my water listening to that interview and hearing him say that

norseofbroad.bsky.social•28 days ago

2025 CHA is not a real first. Will become 2 2nds.

bugsysig.bsky.social•28 days ago

Kings got more for Fox than Mavs got for Luka.

poles1337.bsky.social•28 days ago

What a day. 🥹

canutocanuto.bsky.social•28 days ago

spurs fleeced thank god

kansashoops.bsky.social•28 days ago

Looks like the Mavs' GM helped the Bulls' GM with the negotiation.

macleanw.bsky.social•28 days ago

Bulls got nothing for Zach. This is malpractice by Bulls management.

dr1023.bsky.social•28 days ago

They got their own pick back they can now tank safely which is what Bulls fans wanted anyways

macleanw.bsky.social•28 days ago

if they tank they would get it anyway. The status quo was the only issue preventing them from keeping pick.

jjusc14-16.bsky.social•28 days ago

Zach is garbage with that contract. He is worth the peanuts they got

macleanw.bsky.social•28 days ago

Its same management that got nothing for Caruso and didnt trade Drummond for 3 seconds at last years deadline. They have no clue what they are doing.

macleanw.bsky.social•28 days ago

The fact that Sacto got 6 picks is insane.

mpayne2k.bsky.social•28 days ago

I kinda like this for the Bulls

dodgerindallas.bsky.social•28 days ago

The kings got a HAUL. So worth it. That team already has a bunch of them guys.

kingsfanchris.bsky.social•28 days ago

Kings got fucked. Blow it up now.

dr1023.bsky.social•28 days ago

3 first round picks and one of them is Charlotte’s? Pretty decent haul and they got to do right by their guy

danielspooner.bsky.social•28 days ago

Charlotte’s is top 14 protected 🫠

robfike.com•28 days ago

And becomes two 2nd rounders next year since it won’t convey 😂

danielspooner.bsky.social•28 days ago

Correct

robfike.com•28 days ago

Not having the fine print on the posts has fanbases screaming about picks they’re not getting 😂

kingsfanchris.bsky.social•28 days ago

Yeah but the picks are for future not current team. Kings also didn’t get pick back from Atl so let’s hope more trades to come. Offensively kings stay about the same but defensively they take a big hit that can’t be easily replaced even with Ellis .

dr1023.bsky.social•28 days ago

They should be focused on the future though, this current team was going nowhere, it’s best to blow it up while you can still get good hauls for some of the guys

kingsfanchris.bsky.social•28 days ago

Kings were good for like five minutes, fired their coach ( best coach in ten thousand years) and traded their best player away. Kings are the Bulls west and now what?

meat-stack.bsky.social•28 days ago

I'm loving this. This has been a wild 24 hours for the western conference

russelspy.bsky.social•28 days ago

I'm not signing off on that deal unless the Spurs take either Arturas or Pat Williams.
