Either way we got a really talented player today.

This also makes the rest of the draft worth watching


Agree with yo (though I was torn between Dunn and Hield). I don't think we need to trade Dunn or Rubio just yet. Dunn hasn't played a minute in the NBA and Rubio is still a slightly above-average PG in the league. I could see Dunn playing some minutes at the 1 and the 2 this year, and if he really looks like he's going to pan out better than Rubio (no guarantee), then we can look to move Rubio before the trade deadline. Let's not jump the gun.

I wonder who we're dangling with Dunn to attract Butler

Don't get me wrong though...I'd be happy if we kept Dunn

Unfortunately we don't know if any of the rumored trades were actually ones on the table or media fabrications. Dunn is a tremendous fit with Thibs.

Saw you and hockey posted that before me. Hopefully all of us and our front office agree here.

Faried and Murray > Dunn and Bazz is an easy call though, and hindsight.

Russell > Dunn is a tough call but remains to be seen.

If it was a Dunn, Bazz, + filler for Butler sure, but that wont happen. If they want LaVine or Wiggins involved then Thibs has to run for the hills.


Offer Dunn, Shabazz, and a top 8 protected pick

If the Bulls want Dunn that bad, then I say we tell them we'll give them Dunn and someone not named Rubio/Lavine/Towns/Wiggins, take it or leave it

Bazz and pek

I'd be fine with that. If they don't get a great deal then hopefully they are smart and just keep Dunn. They can figure out the Dunn/Rubio situation later on. For all we know they might play really well together even.

Chriss was a bust for me before the draft, and now that he goes to the Kings i shouldn't expect anything else.

Dunn just seems like such a Thibs kind of guy. Can play both sides of the ball, especially on defense. I'd be surprised if we traded him without picking up a very good vet in return.

Now, Butler would certainly count as a very good vet! But I wouldn't include LaVine with Dunn for Butler because where would our 3 point shooting come from on the perimeter. I really hope the Wolves don't do that rumored trade.

Dunn isn't my guy however its obvious he is HIGHLY regarded by a few teams so that encourages me. I'm interested to see if there will be a trade.


Really Monster? You are dealing with home appliances on one of the most important night's in the NBA offseason!? Really!? You need one of Jerry's 60-minute beers I think.
