Not making it hard to trade him at all. Hopefully increasing his return though.

absolutely. He's been a key component for us winning the past 2 games. He's really turned it around.
It's uncanny how everyone on this team, from the starters to the end-of-bench guys, are taking turns having their best seasons ever.

It would have to be a nice return. If he keeps it up, scoring, playing defense, creating plays, he’s a huge piece of the bench. Trade him if a great deal presents himself but I wouldn’t dump him for any ol big

He has been quite uncharacteristic of late (7/13 last night I believe) with the misses. Hopefully he gets back to being basically automatic after that little session and some rest.

I'm all for trading him, but yeah the return has to be nice and something for the future. I don't want a one year bench PF rental for him.

He missed 3 vs Washington, then 6 last night.. so he's been off the past two games. He knows it at least and is putting in work. Exactly the opposite of Ben Simmons lol.

Zach, Demar and Lonzo all had off shooting nights yesterday but that's when guys like Coby become so important. It's encouraging to see the Bulls still winning games despite our best players underperforming (by their standards).

I just said I don't want a one year bench rental.
I'm not expecting an All-Star in return for Coby White.

I feel he has only increased his trade value and it couldn't be perfect timing. Look at what has happened in Houston. Maybe we could make a package to snipe both Wood and KPJ from them. People are so trained to the old GarPax ways. They fall in love with drafted players to easily and don't want to trade them to get better. The NBA is filled with Cobys.

He's young, and a gifted scorer. It was easy to say "trade him" when he looked like he was hurting us, But now he's helping us win games. It becomes more difficult to trade him. But these are good problems to have. That's why GMs get paid the big bucks.

It actually becomes easier to trade him the better he plays. Again, we’ve seen flashes of this from coby before…maybe he does sustain it this time, but I’d rather that be another teams gamble, personally

I’ve never seen him play this type of defense and making consistent good decisions like this before. I’ve seen him go on scoring streaks, but I’ve never seen him look so comfortable and play this well all around. Don’t think anyone said not to trade him but don’t just dump him for some marginal PF/C.

We only have one more game this week, I'd give it a few more weeks.

There's pretty much zero that could stop me from trading coby. If he plays well that's just a bonus in what we get in return. He will always be a defensive liability against good scorers. He'll also always be a solid scorer. Those guys are replaceable.

give it another week, means give it a week from today. That would be 3 games…but you already knew this…

Can’t say I agree with the definitive “he will always be a defensive liability against good scorers.” He’s only 21. Most youngins take time to develop defensively, look at LaVine. He’s turned himself into a plus defender, but it took a long time

I think it has more to do with size limitations than anything else. It will always hamper him defensively.
