The Bulls' talks to acquire Kris Dunn were more serious with the Celtics than the Timberwolves, per source.

Much ado about nothing?

Yeah man, let's go back to fishing

Uhhh, you don't want to go fishing, Fredo.

Does that even qualify as info, how can you even proof that. As PTI guy say if it's something or nothing, I give that a big fat Nothing

Well I can't proof anything. But can you proof that the talks were ever serious? I'll take the Bulls beat writers word just as soon as I'll take the Wolves writers

Why would anyone want to proof it? That's the most boring job on the planet. Proving it is much more fun.

I say we just keep the guys we have right now. Wig-dieng-towns-lavine-rubio was a very good starting unit towards the end last season. Add dunn, sign a free agent big(noah) and a free agent shooter(lee) then we have bazz and bjeilica and that is a playoff team in my view with a lot of potential to be reached still for individual players.

Agreed. Wiggins for Butler makes much more sense than getting rid of our only 3pt shooter. Wiggins potential > current Butler.

I still think 76ers may be talking with the Wolves. They need a pg .

About the only thing I feel sure about is Rubio is available.

We have seen reports that Dunn was Thibs' #1 prospect. And since Rubio is available, it seems highly unlikely Thibs would move Dunn.

I imagine #5 and Rubio for Butler was a possibility before the draft. But once Dunn fell in Thib's lap, the deal with #5 was off.

Yeah I kinda had that feeling too . So where does this team and Ricky go from here? Not only drafting a pg but actively shopping Ricky? Bridges being burnt here?

This is the NBA. It's a business. Bridges don't burn from rumors or being made available and if it did with Ricky then get him out of here for being a drama queen. He said himself he wants out if we don't make the playoffs so it doesn't sound like he's all that invested here anyway.

I still like LeVert, hope the best for him. Possible Steal.

Ricky's already hinted at a trade if we didn't make the playoffs. Seems like he gets that it's a business. He's been a pro since 14.
