    The Bulls have a really talented guard. They apparently want to take advantage of Lavine. They added another All-Star. Meanwhile Neil.......

    What makes you guys so sure that a buyout candidate will come to us? They can go to Lakers, Clippers, Nets, Miami, Philly or whoever where they have a better Chance to win a ring

    they’re in complete rebuild mode, anything other than a buyout would make little to no sense. I guess they could sign and trade him later, but that’s about the only logical alternative.

    Personally I would be much more excited about a G League all star or two.

    I wonder if Neil already got an assurance from an agent of a likely buy out candidate that made him hold off on any wing deals.

    Can see getting an assurance from Porter having him lower his interest in Gordon.
    I still really wanted Gordon, but I do think if ownership mandates staying below the tax, it would have been difficult to pull off.

    I'm not saying it doesn't happen but that would be textbook tampering... not some summertime pre free agency shit but full on lose first round picks tampering.

    sounds about right. I don’t see him letting the deadline pass with only 13 players unless he was sure about a certain buyout candidate. We know he’s got a good relationship with Porters agent.

    So basically this feels like a couple years ago when we traded for Hood and we signed Kanter from the buyout market.
