With the way the Chicago Bulls roster is currently structured, it seems like the Larry O’Brien trophy won’t be making its way to United Center anytime soon. Their core is solid, but barring major changes, it will only be good enough to push for the playoffs. Nothing more.
However, Arturas Karnisovas is determined to make things work with the current core. And while it’s a respectable position considering the Bulls were a rebuilding team just a few years ago, the current team has no future. Chicago might be better off shaking things up, and a trade proposed by Greg Swartz of Bleacher Report would see them do that.
Swartz suggested a trade that would send DeMar DeRozan to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for D’Angelo Russell and a myriad of other assets.
