I'm legitimately happy for Zach LaVine. Knew he'd become a star. Glad he stayed healthy enough to prove that. Always seemed like a really good guy too.

Yeah and I'm glad he stayed with the Bulls. I think that's a good situation for him.

I'm still a Zach skeptic. He can shoot the hell out of the ball, but I question his overall smarts. Not sure this was a good move by the Bulls. Hope he proves me wrong, as he's in the Eastern Conference and I at one point lived in Chicago for 10 years and was a huge Bulls fan.

This one hurts a bit. Brown has emerged as a pretty damn good role player and I don't like seeing him land with the Nuggets.

Thanks is large part to Lip... I came around on Hartenstein. His defensive numbers are great... as is his improved passing.

Maybe I'm missing something, but $8M seems quite reasonable for the guy.

This is another one that hurts. Would we rather have SloMo or Hartenstein? I kind of lean toward Hartenstein and it seems like he was totally gettable. He's still improving too, unlike SloMo.

He's not the brightest bulb in the tanning bed.

Cool, the 1980s called...they want that reference back ;-) .

Yeah, Zach is an easy guy to cheer for and a fun guy to watch, but there's something that just doesn't click and prevents him from reaching his enormous potential. He seems to have all the tools to be an elite defender, and I don't question his defensive effort, but he is remarkably ineffective on D. This is a great deal for Zach, but I don't see it as a great deal for the Bulls.

Brogdon traded to Celtics. Yikes! The DLO alternatives are drying up fast unless we get point Ant. I'm also wondering if the Wolves have been offered both Rudy and Conley in a package deal for DLO, Beasley and Pat Bev.

Malcolm Brogdon has been traded to the Boston Celtics in exchange for Daniel Theis, Aaron Nesmith, Nik Stauskas, Malik Fitts, Juwan Morgan and a 2023 first-round pick, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski announced on Friday.
