What do you guys think of all this Zach Lavine rumor stuff going on? I would say it's nonsense, but I listen to Chicago Sports radio on a daily basis and they are starting to say "where there's smoke, there's often fire". So I think there's a legit chance he does get traded... but what I can't figure out is why on earth they signed Nikola Vucevic if they plan to trade Lavine?

https://sports.yahoo.com/keep-eye-bulls-zach-lavine-170015705.htmlIt's because the Bulls have been rebuilding in the last couple of years with acquisition of Vucevic and then DeRozan. And yet they can't even win games in the playoff. So perhaps Lavine frustrations is growing. And I think even before their season end last year, there have been noises already that Lavine might leave Chicago with the same reasons. So we will see how it goes, if star players are unhappy with their franchise then I wouldn't be surprise if Lavine behind the back might be asking for a trade right now from the management.
Yeah but you're missing my point. They had been in rebuild mode, but aren't any longer. Now unless they are thinking about going back in to re-build mode, it might not make any sense to move on from Lavine. Also Lavine might have some power when it comes to trade Vetos to certain places (I'm not real sure), but he doesn't hold the cards, the Bulls own him and will make whatever decision they think is best, not what he wants.

They got the disabled player exception which is 10 million, I don't think they need to trade him for someone else. Besides, the duo of DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine is getting better in their chemistry, all they need is a bit more patience. It's not their fault they are undermanned without Lonzo Ball, it's part of the game.
Surely, this will wreck their roster if they trade him. He had been the face of their franchise, it's just a matter of time and the right players to make them great again.
I think the Chicago Bulls management is drooling over the Harden and Lillard opening for trade. Trading LaVine + the $10M will give them the possibility to get one of them.
If that's what the Chicago Bulls were thinking, they should think more deeper. Both Lillard and Harden won't gonna help them win a championship. Yes, they're a great offensive player, but not as much defensively plus either of them will mess up the team chemistry.
Trading away Lavine will be their first mistake if that happens. Instead they should focus on getting a legitimate big man and a spot up shooters who can also play defense, to add more depth to their current roster. Trading away one of their key players will not going to help them win a chip.
Yeah the Bulls couldn't help the fact that Lavine got hurt, and maybe got a player who's career is over, but still..DeRozan and Lavine aren't getting any younger, they've had time to gel, it's shit or get off the pot at this point.
I also don't see there being even a tiny change that Lillard comes to the Bulls. Neither him nor Harden make any sense. I think it's simply rebuild mode, once again.
