Either trade Russ to the Celtics for Jaylen, the nets pick, and another pick or try to find a package to get Butler from the Bulls. There team doesn't have to blow up. They have good to great pieces
If they traded Butler for Russ, why would Russ resign with a team left with Robin Lopez and possibly Rondo :scusthov: (unless you're talking about the Celtics trading for Butler)
And if BOS was looking to trade for him, I would think they'd need to either include Isiah Thomas in the deal or ship him in a separate deal, unless Russ and him can play together in the back court.

They gonna have to start from scratch and rebuild through the draft....OKC isn't attracting any big names, especially with KD gone and Westbrook leaving too.

Flip Westbrook for some picks & young talent and get all you can get. Start the rebuilding process a year early, get a lotto pick instead of competing for a 7th-8th playoff spot.
You can't lose 2 of the top 5 players in the NBA without getting nothing back in return. That'll set their franchise way back. I actually hope it happens. :russ:

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
and yet if they trade him, they ll be killed for selling him away from pennies on the dollar

everyone on here wants Jimmy, but nobody wants to come correct with an offer

Bulls aint have no problems keeping him around on a discount :manny:


That demand from the Celtics was crazy though :russ:

Like, that's the type of demand you make if it's Anthony Davis.

Nah you got me mixed up. Im saying OKC trades for butler without losing russ to try and compete or they trade Russ to boston for jaylen, nets pick and more

I think that was exaggerated

I heard alot of reports they would have done Dunn/Lavine, but Wolves would only do Dunn/Rubio and Bulls held their ground
Celts could have had him for #3(Dunn) & the Nets pick Id believe, not knocking the Celts for passing, but there is no way the Bulls demanded Bradley, Crowder, Smart, #3 and the Nets picks - that doesnt make any sense
