Not a bad return for the Bulls. The Timberwolves should be fun to watch, too
I'm bitter.

Look at what Minny gave up...and consider that there were multiple fans who wanted to give up both Brooklyn picks to get Butler. Talk about an overpay...
Jaylen Brown will be an All Star in the next 5 years.

For what the Timberwolves gave up, we could have made a similar deal. Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.

Good return for Minny.  Dunn will not be much in the league, and Lavine is coming off ACL.

Unless you're dealing with idiots which is the case when it comes to dealing with the Bulls front office. This is a horrible deal for them.

Great deal for both teams in my opinion.

The wolves obviously get Butler.

But Chicago is looking to start over with good, young players. They really wanted Dunn last year, Lavine is explosive and can shoot, and they get Markkanen on the inside/outside. I am not sure Danny was willing to beat this package - especially if Chicago thinks Dunn and Brown are of comparable value.

The Wolves got the #16 too?!  How the hell did they also take a pick back in this deal?

Chicago got fleeced.

Yeah, I like it for both teams, too.
