No.  This twitter person is an idiot.  Sullinger is a free agent and can't be traded.

Well he can, it just have to be a S&T and would have to be a "player to be determined"  if it happens on draft night.

Not sure why C's would rather trade AB than Sully, unless they have something else lined up for Sully.

But I'm not holding my breath, I hope it's true, but it's going to be a long 5 days with the rumors that are about to pop up.

I almost fell off the chair seeing such a ridiculous over-payment.  Crowder?  No way.  Don't trade Crowder, man.

That doesn't work unless Sullinger wants to be in Chicago, and the contract would need to be negotiated. Since Sully could just sign there without being traded, he isn't an asset in the trade, so including him makes no sense
I'm bitter.

I think that's gotta be a mistake. I don't see celts trading all that anyways but clearly they wouldn't rather trade Bradley. I'm guessing they meant the other way around.

3, Amir, & Bradley

That's the best deal for both teams.  It preserves our double max cap space.  Bulls get two starters and an elite draft pick.

Yeah, I could see #3 , Amir and Bradley happening. I think Bradley, crowder and the #3 is just likely a really bad move.

It's gonna hurt bad in defense if we lose Avery and I dont know how a lineup of Thomas, butler, crowder, and whatever else will mesh. I just hope losing Amir doesn't result in us chasing Horford or something unless the whole Durant pipedeream came true.

IT and Crowder won't be traded except for a Cousins/Blake Griffin type of player.

Part of the point of having Butler is to play him alongside of Crowder.

True, but wouldn't get get more money and years if he did a S@T? And while it's unlikely, it's still possible which is what I was getting at.

Plus Sully wanting to go to Chicago makes sense with all the Deep Dish Pizza and Sausage.  ;) sandwiches.

They changed S&T rules with the last CBA, so you can't get the extra year or larger raises. It can help if a team doesn't have enough cap space to sign the player, but they should ha e plenty of space if the trade Butler (especially since they would probably also let Pau go)
I'm bitter.
