Arturas Karnisovas, speaking after the Bulls did not make any additional moves after trading away Zach LaVine, vowed that there is "more to come" and said the team is "not OK with being in the middle.

“Karnišovas clarifies this: Says he won’t stand in way of young players making playoff run, said that’s sign of development and growth,” K.C. Johnson said in a post. “Understands if they don’t make playoffs, their draft pick can be better.”

Following the NBA trade deadline coming and going Thursday afternoon, it was obvious that Karnisovas did not convey the urgency or true plan that was going on behind the scenes. But that needs to start showing itself quickly as the ship continues sinking.

As has become tradition, Bulls executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas failed to clearly outline the organization’s direction as another transaction window came and went.
