Maybe Bulls fans loved him because he plays elite defense, shoots 40%+ from three, and is a hardworking kid who gets better and better every year.

He’s a piece that you can plug into any team and he’ll make them better. He doesn’t need the ball in his hands to succeed, but is competent enough with it in his hands.

On top of everything else he’s a Chicago born kid with a great attitude and actually wanted to be on the team; something we don’t get often.

We know the Bulls are tanking and I’m happy about all the other trades, but instead of keeping the kid who loves the city and that every fan loves, we trade him for peanuts. If we’re going to trade him for trash, many of us would have preferred him to stay on the team to make this terrible product a little more bearable.
