I think the idea that Lavine would willingly take a 30-40 mil paycut by leaving the Bulls to go be a 2nd star somewhere else was always a pipedream.
Dude also has said repeatedly he wants to win, which basically disqualifies any team that had a chance for him this summer.
I do think there's a conversation of how Klutch operates when it comes to their big FA stars. It's obvious they disseminated a bunch of those Lavine to LA rumors and kept stoking the fire of him leaving. Kinda gross. Glad the Bulls didn't blink.
