the guy has been playing terribly this season. he was a good role player until he thought he’s a superstar. he asked for a 200m contract. obviously that’s not happening. now i don’t think he’s in bulls future plans at all. and the bulls might want to rebuild given that their roster hasn’t worked at all this and the previous seasons. we are in desperate need of someone with size that can play a lick of defense. you think he can save his career in a Mavs jersey?
What about Theis? He’s just rotting at the Pacers bench.
If you trade for him and he stinks, it’s a waste of assets.
If you trade for him and he plays well, IMO there’s a big risk of him getting poached in RFA (especially if Cuban doesn’t want to get deep into the tax), which would also be a waste of assets.
So if the Bulls make him available, I think he’s a much more reasonable gamble for rebuilding teams that have lots of SRPs and can match any reasonable RFA offer.
I would trade for Drummond instead.
He’s 6’7". I mean we need size at the wing, but unsure who/what you’re giving up to get him nor really why.
