Marc Stein is reporting they are offering the #5 pick for JFB.

Heard that too.

Also rumored they are interested in Walking Jockstrap too

If Jimmy goes and Rose stays, it will be the last time I will ever support the Bulls in any way.

Minnesota is reportedly willing to part with the #5 overall pick in a deal to get Jimmy B from the Bulls.

Lenny, see other thread on this topic, bro.

Towns, butler, Wiggins. Good start.

wadesworld · « **Reply #9 on:** June 13, 2016, 10:09:45 PM »

The number 5 pick? Lol. In this draft? Might as well trade Butler to the Cavs for Richard Jefferson then.

Yeah, that's not for Paxson to give up his prized possession

drewm88 · « **Reply #11 on:** June 13, 2016, 10:52:16 PM »

What package would the Bulls say yes to, if you're looking at these options?

#5
Lavine
Shabazz
Dieng
2018 1st

5, Lavine, Dieng, and 2018. But I have zero faith in GarPax making any intelligent decision.

Makes a whole lot of sense for the TWolves. Not so much for the Bulls, who must be thinking "addition by subtraction" in jettisoning JFB because he has criticized Hoiberg.

Then again, choosing an in-over-his-head former Iowa State coach over great players has worked so well historically for the Bulls.

GooooMarquette · « **Reply #14 on:** June 14, 2016, 12:25:52 AM »

Might actually get me up to some TWolves games.

RushmoreAcademy · « **Reply #15 on:** June 14, 2016, 07:49:08 AM »

They'd have to give them the #5 pick and a front line player. The only reason this is even being reported is because Tom T is there now. The Celtics are also interested and have the #3. They don't need to get of him, so the price is going to be really high, as it should be.

brewcity77 · « **Reply #16 on:** June 14, 2016, 01:38:33 PM »

Right now, the word out of Chicago is that it would take the #5 and Andrew Wiggins. Not sure Minnesota would give up that much, but especially in this weak draft, it will probably take more than just tossing enough crap at Chicago and hoping they eventually give up Butler. Ironic that Dieng is mentioned as Thibs wanted him bad in 2013 when the Bulls took Tony Snell one pick earlier. I would be surprised to see Minnesota give up Dieng.

I really hope to see Butler traded, whether Chicago or Minnesota is irrelevant. The whole Rose/Butler thing is really tired and while I have zero respect for Rose, Jimmy constantly complaining to the media and sniping at his teammates and coaches has gotten old. The "aw shucks" humility he got from Buzz has clearly worn off and between the inept front office, the in-over-their-head coaching staff, the crystalline point guard, and the bluster and bravado of Butler, Chicago is just a massive clusterf**k and he'd be better off getting a fresh start.

Agree that JB needs a fresh start. Bulls are headed over the cliff.

ChitownSpaceForRent · « **Reply #18 on:** June 14, 2016, 01:46:15 PM »

See I love that Jimmy and Noah are complaining to the media. Screw GarPax, Bulls players have every right to complain especially since Rose has gotten the best treatment imaginable from the front office and local media even though he hasn't done crap in 5 years. It's completely undeserved.

Drafting Snell, giving up two first rounders for McFlopper not trying everything in their power to cut ties with Rose, it's ridiculous.

I'm in your camp on this one, Chitown. Jimmy is right to call out the morons who screwed up the franchise.

You would get over it eventually. Most fans do.

What do you expect GarPax to do with Rose? They got screwed, and there was literally nothing they could do about it.

Not defending GarPax (they both need to go, but won't) at all, but to say there was an alternative path with Rose is awfully easy to say now, but you wouldn't have said it 2012.

BrewCity83 · « **Reply #22 on:** June 14, 2016, 03:38:34 PM »

They should trade Rose and build the team around JFB. Duh.

No one is giving up anything for Derrick Rose.

Doesn't matter. Dump him and let the stench clear. I'll bet the Knicks or someone would take him.
