trade him to the mavericks
Chicago been shitty since 98 Rose was good af but nah
The team source needs to be fired. Probably a female who knows nothing about basketball. I hate to hear fake news like this. Zach or his reps never said anything. Just all gossip. Also espn females need to learn facts before they just say anything. I can do that literally
Send Zach LaVine to us in Miami will take him. Can I guarantee you will actually want to play for us. 🤷🤷. The bulls front office has been terrible ever since the whole Derrick Rose situation happened
The GM, the unluckiness of Lonzo's health, and Lavine have some blame. In my opinion, Billy Donovan isn't the problem. It's actually kinda amazing that they've swam around .500 the last couple of years with that roster. The Bulls had a winning record without Lavine last year and were 10-15 with him. It's fair game to blame Lavine, who is chewing up more than 40 million in cap space.
Nobody wants Lavine 😢
Demars move to the bulls really hurt his game. bro average almost 30 a game before demar, but now his psyche is effd and that scoring aura is gone.
The source shouldn't have made the quote, but, as usual, Perk is delusional.
Lavine put up a 50 point nothing burger in a Loss and was happy that should tell you everything you need to know about his basketball character he’s me first he wants his stats
Giddey trade best Bulls move in years. If LaVine is healthy he'll score ton of buckets off Giddey and rebuild his value.
All I can think how he robbed Gordon out of the dunk contest
He needs to go to like the hawks or pacers at this point lol
Can we get one of those tech billionaire owners? It starts from the top down.
Perk breathing in the mic man smh
Trade him to the lakers
Can't trade the guy without a partner.
Why trade him for pennies on the dollar? They don't win with him anyways. Just keep tanking with him.
Caruso and DeRozan were the heart and soul of the Bulls. Lavine and Vucevic are not. As a Bulls fan, I think we're screwed
Zack needs to go to the Knicks
Everyone in this organization is dipshit. Lavine included. He took the MAX Contract. He wants to be the Superstar but doesn't want the criticism that goes along with being the guy. Whoever called him out is NOT wrong here.
He's often lazy on defense, a blackhole on Offense, doesn't run in the flow of the offensive system. He tends to stat pad, often shoots the team out of the game & makes terrible decisions with the ball in the fourth quarter.
Does that sound like someone worthy of a SUPERMAX Deal? The team gave him a fortune because they thought they were getting some version of "Kobe Bryant 2.0" and instead they got "Dollar Tree Kobe" or "Kobe-Lite" (without the defense, IQ & late game heroics). The team bought the lie, and LaVine sold them the hype.
This bulls team has been riddled with injuries that’s real person to blame… this bull team when they were healthy was a problem in the East
Lavine to the hawks
