Zach LaVine has always made it a point to shoot down trade rumors, and sticking to the idea that if it wasn’t coming from his camp it wasn’t true. That’s no longer the case, as the Bulls are now a broken product.

The Bulls are officially broken.

Their max-contract, face-of-the-franchise player made that clear on Wednesday.

Speaking with reporters after the morning shootaround, guard Zach LaVine sounded like a player who knew trade rumors and a pending breakup with the Bulls isn’t just smoke this time. It’s fire spreading from both sides.
