Trade deadline discussion

A real lateral move IMO. Trent can be just as good as Powell on less money.

Different players

Also Zach is a FA after next year... the pick they send this year will be middle of the road and the 2023 pick could be a lotto pick. Bulls pushing all in like this now is a little questionable imo.

Acquiring Vuce gives them the best chance at keeping Zach though. Just look at Bucks desperate attempt in keeping Giannis by going all-in to get Jrue. It paid off the moment Giannis sign that extension. And what they gave up to get Vuce is nothing compared to the 4 firsts bucks gave to acquire Jrue. I'd say it's a massive victory for the bulls regardless of Zach resign or not. They are well positioned to be a playoff team for the next three seasons.

Playoff team with no shot at making the Finals and their picks are gone now. Not exactly a great move.

Yeah not great from a Jazz fans perspective...... But there are certainly teams out there like the Bulls and Kings that will take a W for just making the playoffs.

Hang in there, DL. I'm sure somebody will call.

Vucevic and Lavine is great fit offensively and that was a win/win trade in terms of talent but Bulls may have gotten even worse defensively. I heard they are trying to package Markannen for a better fit.

there it is...Jazz got their guy

A shooter who can't defend is not what I expected tbh but a move is a move.
