Quick lil back story on these two:

Rob can still be a real good spark plug off the bench. I still believe in the pedigree. Itโ€™s not his fault he got drafted to a team whose coach never liked him. Heโ€™s small and canโ€™t finish. The defense has gotten better. He tries. The offense is what went to shyt. He needs time to get in rhythm and Finch never let him have that chance so Rob lost all confidence. Iโ€™m rooting for him.


Leonard Miller is a AAAA player. G League legend but watching him play is like buying tickets to see Sade only to find out that she got replaced by Playboi Carti. Aesthetically it hurts watching him play even though in G league he always put up numbers. He was simply blocked by KAT/Randle/Naz.

The potential issue here is that Donovan is not really any different from Finch in terms of playing vets over young guys.

At least Finch has a Superstar and a contending team. Billy Donovan has been scrapping out wins for the Play-in and isn't pressed to develop anyone during the season or sacrifice winning for any youth movement.

Bulls are loaded at guard so there's no guarantee Rob will see the floor in any meaningful way.

Bulls need to move on from Billy as well and fully commit to tearing everything down. They really need to try and lose every game for the rest of the season. I'm deadass serious too.

I'm fully prepared to see Tre Jones and Giddey out here in March fukking up the lottery odds winning meaningless games in March

Rob is nice

But they still got about 6 or 7 guards

That's a great and under the radar move that people will be like, "who is this guy"... I actually liked Julian's game. I think Dalen had untapped potential as well.

I understood clearing house and being bad while letting those guys play. But what it looks like is happening is that this team is gearing up to make another Play-In run like they did last year after trading Zach and picking up all those role players
