I want to go back in time and save myself from watching all of those 2015-16 Nets games."

Lol.

He knows he'll watch 2016-2017 Nets games as long as we have the rights to swap.

Bulls want lavine. I reckon they would prefer crowder/bradley
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Simmons hates him. That's the most optimistic thing I've heard tonight.

There is strong sentiment within Bulls' front office to do full rebuild, trade for Dunn.

But Danny wants the smart kid who wants to study at Harvard

Wolves and Bulls still talking about a Butler-Dunn trade.

not that easy..... Bulls want Lavine...... Wolves say no

but you know what. You need to give up something to get something good in return

However Lavine and Dunn for Butler is kind of an overpay for the Wolves.   Dunn for Butler is overpay for the Bulls

not sure what kind of compromise they can come up with

Minny and Chicago still in talks about Butler deal around Dunn (Woj)

I'm going to be so effing p---ed if it's Lavine and Dunn for Butler and we passed up Crowder and Dunn for Butler. What a joke, Danny..
Assuming that was on the table then yeah bit of a head scratcher... Bulls may like Wolves assets more though, like Lavine, and asked for more than just that proposed trade from us

I am excited to see Thon Maker in the NBA. I imagine Milwaukee are thinking of Thon Maker as a center. That Jabari - Giannis - Middleton trio makes it difficult to get Maker in at PF.

Position-less basketball.

Well with Thon taken at 10, at least one more decent player might slide to us at 16...I wouldnt be able to guess our pick at 16 if 100 million was on the line..how about that tall center from China?  :o

I'm going to be pretty salty when the Wolves get Jimmy Butler.

Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
