Nah, the first draft said "thx" while simultaneously flipping him off.
Yeah but post Kawhi era has seen a third of our salary cap tied up in dead cap every year and this needs to end.

I liked zach energy and he always hustles, just that the results are pretty bad. Like that kid on the JV team who runs around and gives his all but just make things worse.
You have to respect his at ude though. And he’s way richer than I will ever be.
Imagine the meltdown here if the Bulls cut Zollins and the Spurs re-sign him for the minimum.
Yes, I know this can't happen. It's just funny to think about.
I mean he'd probably be worth it in that case.
Zollins is an elite level Towel Waiver. Would love to have him on a vet minimum.
still cant believe we were able to unload this contract in the Fox trade. dude was literally our Nurkic (non-impactful center fallen out of the rotation, under contract to earn 18 mil next season), and the suns had to give up a first just to get off of him. we got to ship him off in a deal where we landed in Fox
Exactly this, not even having to see his name on the depth chart next year will be a gift that keeps on giving. I'm hoping the Hawks pick can jump a few spots and get us one of the big 4 in this coming draft class and perhaps our pick can be used on a mid to late lottery big.
Same, Collins was such a bad contract.
Meanwhile, Spurs got Harrison Barnes and a Sac Swap for assisting. That is not much less than-
Bulls in:
2 2nds + a $6M expiring
Zollins bad K, Tre's $9M expiring, and their own top 1/3 protected '25
Josh Giddey with a trade exception
Bulls Out: DeMar S&T, Lavine (salary relief, but still he's a 24/5/5 guy on 45% today), and Caruso
That's, ugh, not great value. One of these FOs is better than the other. We should talk to Chi before the lottery...
See if we can get Buzelis and their '25 for Keldon and the Sac Swap![]()
Brian keeps getting it Wright
Is it possible for Zach to end up back here this year? Like could he sign with another team, get cut, and then get picked up by us.
I'd rather have Bamba, but the Spurs love their corporate knowledge
No. Not possible. Teams did this for years, but as soon as the Spurs did it with Brent Barry, they outlawed it. I believe it’s a full year at a minimum before you can return to your trading team.
I believe if he signed with another team and gets waived, then the Spurs can trade him. Another option is if the Bulls traded Collins to another team and that team waives him, Spurs can sign him.
The bad man can't hurt us anymore. We are safe.
Dude this guy sucked.
He had half of a decent season when we were tanking and then sucked at all other times.
That we managed to unload him at no cost in this trade is his best contribution as a Spur.
God speed Zach Collins!
He was a good dude that showed some promise as a reclamation project. Seemed he could be a solid modern stretch big. When his 3 PT% tanked and injury bug reemerged it was time to cut bait. No hard feelings about that, he was a well intentioned Spur who kept a good team at ude until the end. We had cap money to blow at the time. No harm no foul going forward.
Only way Zollins would get any playing time on the Bulls is if they were down 40... which they are right now. Imagine being a franchise that gave him minutes otherwise.
He was objectively having a good season, what you talking about?
And if he didn’t have such a large contract the Spurs would have had to include another rotation player in the deal.
Jesus Christ, I don't think I have ever seen a halftime score of 71-29.
Also Zollins in a Bulls jersey; just inject that straight into my veins.
No class from the Bulls though, not letting Zach keep his number. Also feels bad seeing Tre there.
I think a change.org pe ion to unretire #23 for Zollins is in order
Hey now. We should give kudos to our fine tank-commander for his time here, he got the job done.
Now I need to find somebody else to complain about.
Good to see Collins and Jones brought their infectious losing ways to the Bulls.
That was so clairvoyant of our front office![]()
