Watching the live stream of The Vertical draft coverage...... I believe they are on the 2nd round now.

It is staying interesting...

Phoenix has a deal with the Kings for the No. 8 pick, source tells @TheVertical.

It would take Dunn and LaVine to get Butler. I'd pass. I like the potential of a Dunn LaVine backcourt.

ESPN sources say Minnesota continues to try to engage Chicago on talks built around Kris Dunn to try to import Jimmy Butler to the Wolves

Mudiay and Murray look like a great pair considering skillset. M&M branding!

Chicago wanted Zach LaVine and the No. 5 pick, Kris Dunn, sources tell The Vertical.

I'll be very upset if that happens.

I think a trade like that would be shortsighted. Butler hasn't played in 70 games in a season I don't think.

A package like that would have to be like Dunn and Lavine, which still leaves is without a bench. Dunn can push to start at some point and put rubio on the 2nd unit where he can run bazz and others properly. How awesome would it be to have that luxury?

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
