Bulls losing to the Raptors 61-45 btw.

Loss puts them out of playoffs for now.

I soon we trade for Lopez .....he might help our dire big rim protection situation

Brook Lopez is going to cost two first rounders (that's what Brooklyn is asking for) and I'm sure one of those picks will have to be 2018 Nets Pick.

EDIT: LOL I feel like an idiot. You meant Robin Lopez. I think the problem there is Ainge wants a max-slot to go into next summer in case someone like Griffin is available. Lopez ruins that because he is under contract.

Chicago would be dumb to trade Jimmy, but if they do, you better believe they are getting a huge return for him.

Very few wing players have his elite two-way ability.

Not a fan of Butler's offensive game. Too much isolation.

With Butler, i think we can match Cleveland. I'd give up Brown, Rozier, and one of Bradley or Crowder plus a 2018 BKN pick and another non-BKN 1st rounder. That's a lot to give up, especially since I think Brown has terrific potential to become Butler in about 4-5 years, but Butler would be a huge addition to this team.
