    I wouldn't expect anything until Wednesday at the earliest. No reason for teams not to wait another 48 hours to get an improved deal.

    Unless your name is Vlade.

    I think the final day will be underwhelming if only because of how much people are expecting a massive trade to happen. If someone like Butler and George doesn't move, it will be seen as disappointment.

    From our perspective there could be some movement of rotational pieces but no big move IMO. I think there is a lack of available power forwards and small forwards that would immediately improve us or give us better prospects for the future.

    I accidentally posted that trade idea with my remembrance of the blazers' toxic offer to Millsap years ago. I think picks would be sent to Indy by Philly and Portland in that ridiculous trade idea.

    If we were having the type of season we had last year, then I'd be all aboard the Millsap train. However, we've had our chance(s) this year and it's not happening. Tank, rest, whatever you want to call it and go all in on the draft this year and try to salvage the season come October.

    Bulls are "aggressively" shopping Mirotic. He's a RFA after the season but I still feel like he's tailor made for Stotts.

    Mirotic for Ezeli and a second?

    Ezili and a bagel. Ezili could very well get a mil to leave. However, he is a bench warming expert.

    I don't think they want to give him away for free which this offer effectively is.

    I would put money on them not getting anything more than a second for mirotic. He's pretty much just a salary dump at this point. Teams know Chicago will not be re-signing him. It's similar to Harkless in Orlando.

    This is amusing in that several years ago before Aldridge left, Chicago fans wanted him desperately but were completely unwilling to include Mirotic in any deal....and he hadn't even played in the NBA yet.

    You misspelled "Watch Dame and CJ both average 40 a game while Nurkic go for 25/20 every night as we knock them out in the 1st round" :cheers:

    Trading ANY of the three picks for Milsap should result in an immediate firing of the GM.
