I told him he said he’s not getting enough back he wants you first rounder too. He’s awaiting your reply.

The thing about Zach is he's on a good contract now but he's going to be a max player making at least $25 million going forward. I think the Bulls should keep him but there is a lot of trade talk around town.

I saw some numbers for him that looked very comparable to Beal.

He's super efficient. I think he's at 51 percent (41 percent from three). The numbers are pretty insane and match up well with Jimmy's best Bulls season and Rose MVP year. The argument against him is he's a horrible defender. Not a reason to not sign him.

Hey bada, what do you think Danny is willing to give up for Thadgic Johnson (Thaddeus Young)? He'd help you guys a lot.

Brad won't play a wing that doesn't shoot threes. I guess as a small ball 5 maybe. He's good but I don't see Brad wanting him. Danny would take him as a buyout but he's not giving up assets.

Thadgic doesn't need to shoot threes to make an impact and yes, he's your small ball 5 who can guard Giannis as good as anyone. Give the Bulls a first round pick.

Although the Bucks apparently suck now so maybe you can stand pat.

I really have no idea what they are gonna do. I'm hoping for Vucevic but they don't seem to value bigs.

At least the Heat are being kind by humiliating themselves after I go to bed this week.

I'd still rather be a Heat fan than a Celtic fan right now. Riley will figure it out I'm not so sure about Danny. This was the Celtic roster a few years ago. Irving, Hayward, Horford, Tatum, Brown, Smart, Rozier, Morris and a treasure trove of picks. Now its Tatum, Brown a gimpy Kemba and a injured Smart. No picks. No cap space. No moves to make. Just a large trade exception in a league now with a play in tourney so even bad teams think they can make the playoffs so why sell. It's dire. Oh and they play in Boston. You're in Miami trick.
