I think it is.Wait is that the right dropping dimes… there is a dupe.
Unless there are picks in that, that's ****ing horrible for Utah.Completely stupid trade idea based on dropping dimes rumor. Picks from Warriors and Clippers (maybe?) coming to UTA.

I don’t think so, the original was 20 not 50.Wait is that the right dropping dimes… there is a dupe.
If Lonzo plays at all and he looks good, his Bird Rights are worth plenty (happy as I am to take more). Also, the expiring itself has value if Lonzo doesn’t play/sucks.The Bulls replace a relatively expensive player that doesn't play with another relatively expensive player that actually plays and puts up decent stats? I would think the Bulls would have to give up a pick to make something like that happen.
I suggested something similar when we were discussing Lavine to the Jazz. Bulls pay one additional year of salary, but they get a serviceable big for their troubles and get off of a contract of a player likely not to play. Giddey replaces Ball. Coby White makes Ball seem like baggage. I am not sure the Bulls want to make the playoffs, but Ball does nothing for them.Trade idea: John Collins to the Bulls for Lonzo Ball. I don't expect (or want) Ball to actually play for the Jazz, but it gets us off a year of JC and clears the way for Walker and Hendricks to grow.
Looking back on this, it would have been an elite trade for UtahView: https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10114883-1-trade-idea-for-every-team-not-in-the-2024-nba-finals
Kind of an interesting proposal for Cade Cunningham. It's a ton of picks/players, but it gives you a legitimate young big 3 that fit together well.
