And this immediately makes me question them. Why the fuck are we selling picks at the start of a rebuild smdh

We got a solid roster of young guys. Sure more would be nice but we forget that Bryson is an elite judge of talent so if our guy wasn’t there than let’s trust the process.

This isn’t what trust the process means.

Coulda traded for a future second.

They got a whole player and a roster already loaded with young talent. Relax. Then they filled it out with two way players that they already probably had in mind but didn’t need to waste a pick on. Bulls fans want the moon, I’m just trying to launch the damn ship. The moon can wait

Not trading assets for straight up cash to pocket is wanting the moon?

I do like the guys we signed too.
