The Chicago Bulls have not gotten off to the start that anyone in their organization had hoped to see.
Coming into the season, many people hoped the Bulls could compete in the Eastern Conference.
They have two All-Star-caliber players in DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine.
Also, they have a solid group of role players around them.
But, through 11 games, things could not have gone much worse.
The Bulls are 4-7 and they seem ready to start a rebuild.
It has been reported that the Bulls are open to trading a few of their stars.
LaVine’s name is the one that most teams are interested in.
You can assume most Bulls players are frustrated with how their season has gone.
But, LaVine has been the most vocal about it.
According to Jamal Collier, LaVine said: “I’m frustrated we’re not winning. I think if you’re not frustrated then that’s a problem.”
LaVine: “I’m frustrated we’re not winning. I think if you’re not frustrated then that’s a problem. It’s nothing more than that. It’s just an upsetting thing when you’ve been trying to do the right thing the last 3-4 years and it seems like we’re in the same place.” https://t.co/Iws8bqRFxb

You can tell by these comments that LaVine would be open to a trade.
He has spent the last seven years in Chicago and has only made the playoffs one time.
Plus, he has averaged 20+ points per game every season but his first with the Bulls.
This team is simply not structured well enough to compete over an 82-game season.
But, it would be interesting to see LaVine go somewhere where he can make an impact.
Some teams that may be interested in him are the Los Angeles Lakers, Miami Heat, and Philadelphia 76ers.
Each of those teams could use another scorer and that is what he brings to the table.
There is still plenty of time until the NBA trade deadline, but it would be a surprise if LaVine was not moved at some point.
