On the previous trade deadline day, Chicago Bulls , which was close to a playoff berth, couldn't wait to complete three trades.
1: sent away Otto Porter + Wendell Carter + 2 first-round picks, got Vucevic + Aminu from the Magic.
2: sent away Gaford + Chandler-Hutchison, in exchange for Troy Brown + Wagner from the Wizards.
Three: Send away Wagner + Cornett, get Daniel Theis + Javint Brown from Celtic .
In that 7-for-5 trade, most people believed that the Bulls were the biggest winner in the trade. They not only got an All-Star-level center, but also further enriched the team to a large extent. depth.
However, after the transaction was completed, the Bulls' record was always unsatisfactory. Not only did they not get closer to the playoffs, but on the contrary, they were getting further and further away. It was a total loss.
After the deal was concluded, the Bulls played a total of 15 games, but only achieved a record of 5 wins and 10 losses, including losses to the Cavaliers, Timberwolves and other underdogs.
In addition to the poor record, the Bulls locker room also began to appear discord.
The friction between Vucevic and LaVine has been delayed for a long time. Theis has never been able to integrate into Donovan's tactical system. Minu was directly used and abandoned, and the team was in chaos.
Maybe, the Bulls management should think about , whether it was a mistake to sign Donovan to a 4-year, 24 million offseason contract from the beginning.
There is no doubt that the Bulls are the biggest loser in the transaction, but they indirectly fulfilled their opponents, the Celtics, allowing the latter to reap the benefits.
In the 14 games after the transaction, the Celtics had a record of 10 wins and 4 losses, rising from eighth in the Eastern Conference on the deadline day to sixth in the Eastern Conference.
Although it has nothing to do with Fournier, after sending Theis away to get Cornett, Green Army suddenly don't have to worry about the height of the inside line, and at the same time, he can logically send the potential teenager Robert Williams was pushed to the starting position for cultivation, forming a chain reaction.
On the one hand, the Celtics finally found the right way to play after the deal was completed, and on the other hand, after they sent Theis to Chicago, the instruction manual remained in Boston, and they made a profit.
Lavin has set career highs in a number of data this year, and has broken a number of team records in a row. In addition, the contract year is approaching, and the maximum salary in the offseason is basically impossible to run.
But the question is, will he get this max salary in Chicago, or will he choose to switch to his team.
The Bulls' poor record is obviously unacceptable for a young player like LaVine, after all, no one likes the taste of losing.
A series of operations they carried out on the free market were most likely aimed at retaining Lavin.
As a result, now I have lost my wife and lost my army. This offseason, I am afraid that the call of LaVine's agent will not stop...
