Don't believe you can trade Zeller but we don't have to match salaries because we are under the cap, right?

Rather go after Paul George

Or make a god father offer for AD.

Ainge isn't giving up the 3rd pick for Butler straight up, what does that tell you?

To all who have advocated selling the farm for Butler:

The Bulls were rebuffed on an offer to the Celtics for the third pick straight-up

[PaulAllen]

Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. Danny

Good go after Paul George


We wouldn't be able to get Hayward if we did this, we have to move salary AB/Crowder/Smart

[Fireworks_Boom!]

Wow, just saw this report. Brutal how leverage can flip flop in a matter of seconds.

Is it the matter of his escalating contract (a report said he would be eligible for $40m/year after current contract) if he makes All NBA All Star?

I read it the other way around - that Danny offered #3 fir Butler straight up and the Bulls rejected.

If Danny  won't give up #3 for Butler he's a raving lunatic.

I posted the quote above. It is very clear that the Bulls made the offer and were rejected (by Danny).

Not conflicting reports, but poor reading comprehension by someone at NESN.
