The salary dump reason is a pretty stupid reason to make that trade btw. The advantage of it is that he has a 12M team option for next year which means he basically works as a 12M expiring in a follow-up trade this year or even next year as well, which is very valuable.
Only reason I can see the Bulls doing this is if they really want Markannen and Portis to get all the PF minutes and they really like JV for some strange reason.

Right now, he's been playing mistake-free basketball, which for a rookie, is a remarkable accomplishment on its own. But he hasn't established himself as a future superstar.

It never turned out well for the Raps when we give away young assets for one guy, it always end up being an addition by subtracting and it either evens out or become's a bad deal. This is a bad deal and it doesn't make us better then the Cavs.

Not saying I would do it, but that's probably a more farer deal for both sides. If we value Miles too much then it's better to just stand pat.
Miles is definitely our best trade chip this season though. He's got a good contract and has a skill every team would want. The problem is we want his skill set as well.

The OG-infused starting lineup, with Serge getting into form and JV seemingly regaining confidence, is currently the best starting 5 in the league and one of the best lineups period. I'm thinking we should keep rolling with it.

Grizzlies Get: Jonas Valanciunas, C.J. Miles, OG Anunoby
Toronto Raptors Get: Marc Gasol, James Ennis
Notes: Toronto’s really good, third in the East, and upgrading from Valanciunas (age 25) to Gasol should more than offset what they’d lose on the wing given the rest of their perimeter talent. Add Gasol to Kyle Lowry/Demar DeRozan/Serge Ibaka and you can talk yourself into being able to battle Boston and Cleveland for both playoff seeding and advancement. Valanciunas (a younger Gasol replacement) and C.J. Miles (you’d hope to flip him to a different contender for a shorter-term contract/draft pick) would have to be the foundation for any Gasol deal with Toronto. OG Anunoby (age 20) is your “first round pick” in this deal.
