Steve9347 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 01:49 PM) It's Cam Payne, Morrow, and Joffrey for Taj, McDermott and 2nd rounder. Ok, that's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Mike McGraw: Payne+Lauvergne+Morrow for Taj/Doug/2nd round pick. I see no reason why the hell we would give up a pick. Utterly stupid. Could always use it on a euro guy you want to stash for a few years. Doug was a disasterous move (revisionist history but man...giving up all those picks for him and getting very little back in return). I'd have asked for the 2022 1st round pick OKC could have offered. At least it looks like Payne is coming cause there is some small chance he could break out and become a useful player. Lauvergine is better then Doug...not great, but solid bench guy. We undersold on Taj / Doug though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Jimmy0 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I actually don't hate it. 1st rounder wasn't coming in return. They can miss the playoffs and trade Jimmy in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxsoxsoxsox Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 02:49 PM) Why would the Bulls do this? And dear god was McDermott a bust Nick Friedel The trade the Bulls swung to get Doug McDermott a few years ago just looks awful now. 2 1st rounders and 3 2nd rounders to make it happen.

Giving up the 2nd round pick is just dumb. This brings back some visions of when the Sox gave up Tatis Jr. for James freaking Shields. It is just unnecessary. Not comparing a 2nd round pick to Tatis Jr, but still, totally unnecessary. Good god...we have given up massive amounts of picks in relation to Doug. Freaking awful.

Dick Allen Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 So Payne will come in, be the first guy off the bench for a couple of games, then not play for a week, then someone will get hurt and he will,start....and we wonder why all the bench guys suck.

Yes. Just like Denzel and others. The coaching staff has done no favors from a player development perspective. KC is reporting that Bobby Portis will take on the starting role (if Taj is dealt). Somewhere you need to actually evaluate these recent young players and give them consistent minutes to do so (Denzel should be part of this conversation). I still can't fathom why Grant plays so much (he is clearly bad). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had been expendable as an asset for quite some time though. Remember how we couldn't dare part with Tajy for Melo. That we got him for two unsuccessful years and then trade him for back roster fodder is just such a great example of the mismanagement and lack of creativity of this awful front office.

chw42 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 This trade is beyond terrible. Why'd they give up the pick? It's not like any of the players we're getting back are better than Taj. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
