1. Namis Qweyta is a crazy way to pronounce that name.

2. Anfernee Simons was fantastic for the Celtics. We loved him. Great young man. Hard worker. One of the leagues best shooters.

3. Bulls front court solid now, get giddey up out of there too

4. Nah They Traded Ant Nah He Fits with My Boston Celtics 🍀 Smh 😡

5. No cap Josh Giddey bout to run C how this bulls roster is shaped 😂

6. Great trade for Celtics from both a basketball and financial standpoint

7. Wtf? How many guards do the Bulls need?

8. Smart move by the bulls. If they have all the guards, nobody else can have any. Think smarter

9. shump dont know what the hell he talkin about i saw anfernee at the mall recently hes 6'2 tops more like 6'1 1/2 and he def dont play like Dame

10. I am a Chicago-based, lifelong Celtics fan. I have seen Vucevic play–a lot. I think he will be the perfect complement to this team. The one thing the Celtics were missing without Al and KP was a big who could face the basket, shoot the three, and open the lane by drawing defenders out of the paint. I like Simons every much, but you have to give up quality to get quality. Plus, his contract was huge for the minutes he played, his cap hit was $6M more than Vucevic's, and the C's would be losing either to free agency after the season anyway. I like the trade. I think we will see a rejuvenated Vucevic now that he is freed from that dumpster fire of a franchise.

11. Celtics aren't 3rd in the East, they're tied for second with the Knicks, and they have split their 2 meetings so far.

12. I doubt we are keeping both Simons and Ivey. Coby is more likely to be traded in a move for a centre possibly and also can't see them trading Ayo

13. Bulls organization is drunk asl

14. Well this year you will need 2 big men to run for a championship using a SF at PF won't work this year

15. Celtics winning the championship. lol

16. Bulls dont be mad. Ant is a bucket!

17. For what

18. Vucevic looked so unhappy in that one interview so im not surprised

19. Maaan, Bulls is getting ready to get Steve Kerr this off Season 😂😂😂

20. What the fuck are the bulls doing they couldn't even get a first round pick for Vuc? Why must my org be so fucking garbage man.

21. The bulls tryna go get yaya that's the only rhyme or reason for this they got like 7 guards

22. Simmons and Coby White can be a scary back court 🔥 they need a big who can be a presence

23. I really didn’t want to give up Simmons man… I don’t think people realize how important his scoring was to this team. They don’t have a secondary scorer

24. malika and perk got traded

25. i was hoping they'd get sabonis😂. Vucecic aint all that. He can score but how about defense. Is he really an al horford? Al defended against giannis and embiid.

26. Anfernee Simons is a beast

27. Bulls love love love Pgs

28. Why y'all got this fool on show y'all idiots

29. We need to trade Colby white for a decent big man

30. Bulls doing all these trades cause they didnt want to lose kenny lmao

31. If you think this is bad for the bulls you truly do not know ball

32. Simmons is a great player but Celtics wouldn't give him too much PT he needs PT

33. “I’m a Josh Giddey guy” is a brazy way to to start off a sentence Shump 😂

34. Bulls adquired its 136th guard.

35. So the Myles Turner to the Celtics rumors were wrong. They would have needed to give up at least a FRP to get Turner and the Celtics must not have wanted to do that.

36. Wtf is my Bulls doing trading these two (Vuc and Hierter)? If we don't get a good players after this, I'm sorry but I'm done

37. Omg, Celtic to the final

38. How does Simons being a ball dominant score first, shot clock draining guard, help Giddey? Giddey needs frontcourt help not guards. There’s gotta be a trade coming

39. Vucevic should be easier to resign and for less money. Simmons wants to be a starter and would not be starting again next year.

40. Why the Celtics brooo 😂 whyyyyyy

41. "It's hard to find a willing passer in the NBA." 🤣

42. Celtics are back in one trade 😂
