Jimmy Butler traded to Philly for Robert Covington and Dario Saric. Jimmy plans to re-sign.

[Lootpack]

he never burned a bridge with the bulls. the ONLY reason the bulls moved him was cuz they didn't wanna pay him a supermax when a team led by butler cannot lead you to a deep playoff run. had nothing to do with his attitude.

There were definitely rumblings in the locker room at the time. I get it, you're a Jimmy fan, but c'mon now.

We really gonna act like Butler got along with Hoiberg? Starting a clique with Wade sabotaging games in spite of the coach? This nikka has complained about three separate rosters basically and seems like he's just never happy. High maintenance.

By being lucky. Not by losing on purpose. Neither one of those guys was top 5 picks. The team didn't tank to get them. How about you win and attract a Iggy? How about win and attract a KD?

The bulls didn't lose on purpose until after the all star break, before that they just sucked.Just like the warriors when they had beidrens,monta,kellena azubuike,maggette etc.I remember those teams homeboy you frontin

and kerr stealing phil jackson and pops offensive schemes and starting draymond is the real reason the warriors took off.They wasn't no title team before that

No offense fam, but you might want to study the Warriors. The Warriors didn't purposely miss the playoffs to get where they are. The start of the change came via free agency when David Lee signed here after Steph's rookie year. Everyone says he was overpaid, the team drafted Klay after missing the playoffs. Then traded Monta and Udoh for Bogut and made the playoffs after drafting Barnes and Draymond.

After making the playoffs, Iggy signed here which led to a title 2 years later. It wasn't like the team lost on purpose to miss the playoffs. Free agency and trades is what turned shyt around.

What the hell that got to do with the Bulls keeping Butler versus trading him? You brought up the Bulls record as if it were suppose be bad thing considering they're rebuilding. You spewing a bunch of nonsense that aint have nothing to do with what I said.

what's funny is lavine would've fit perfectly with him. he was clearly the hardest worker on the wolves and would not have let jimmy punk him in practice. jimmy would've loved him.

When the Warriors had all those players you named they actually was trying to compete. That's why they paid Biedrins all that money. That's why they paid Maggette all that money. That's why they paid Stack Jack all that money. The front office was just inept at the time.

Thibs probably still thinks he can change his mind

I guarantee he convinced Butler to practice with them after their last minute meeting the other day. Butler went yea I’ll practice with these nikkas alright

Bulls fans not wanting the team to make the playoffs is some dumb shyt.

Rachel Nichols just so happened to be in Minnesota of all places and of all the days.

This shyt was staged and Jimmy is a phony ass nikka

You gotta keep in mind he started watching the Warriors play during the 2015 season.

Yeah Lavine had that dog in him regardless of whatever faults he has. Miss his shooting too. Shoulda sent Wiggins to Chicago

Not wanting to pay Jimmy 190M with mediocre talent around him is dumb shyt

i'm talking strictly attitude/motor/work ethic. you never have to wonder if he's going to try or put in max effort or be coachable. wiggins on the other hand...

Speak on what you know fam. Most Bulls fans were not pressed to trade Jimmy cause they wanted to miss the playoffs. They wanted him gone so that team could go in another direction. Like I said before nobody wants to be stuck being an 8th seed forever.

Not if you make the playoffs and attract another star via free agency. Chicago is a top 3 market, players would want to play there if they can be the missing piece.
