Bulls offering Butler several options

The Bulls offered Jimmy Butler a 5-year deal worth more than $90M Monday, and the guard postponed meetings with other teams, sources tell ESPN's Chris Broussard. Butler had planned to meet the Lakers, Celtics, 76ers and Mavs.

I'm actually encouraged by this. At least he planned to meet with us.

Yeah, I'm quite surprised, actually, that Boston was on his list.

Let's be real, it was more as a solid for his boy Mark Wahlberg.

Whatever it takes!
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.

I guess he wants to be the man on the team.

It may not be fair to him, but he is the fourth player I think of when Bulls players come to mind. A big FA splash where he is the new incoming star might be what he wants.

IDK he might just want to be the guy behind the glass statue of Rose and the Redwood tree Noah who continue to finish top 4 each year yet can't get it done in the playoffs. Thibs might not have been the answer but he did build a solid regular season team.
The Nets will finish with the worst record and the Celtics will end up with the 4th pick.

When I think of Bulls players that I'd want to acquire, he's at the top of the list.
