Need A Legit 2nd Option? Holla at Us... 2017 Bulls Off-Season Thread

[jwinfield]

we signed Diamond Stone, I liked him coming outta college, he was always a project and probably wont amount to much, but at least we picked up a flyer on somebody

This whole thing is just only for the fact that we gave up Jordan Bell for money because Pax said we had too many bigs, then we grab Stone

Those are the things that let me know that these dudes don't know what the hell they are doing. Which is why I feel a little better about the doug Collins hire because I just don't trust those clowns leading a rebuild. Maybe a fresh voice, fresh pair of eyes , helps this go right.

Do the bulls ONLY hire people that are butt buddies with the organization already?

What does this move even mean? Doug Collins wanna get fired from the bulls a second time?

Everyone the Bulls hire will inevitably be from the Good Ol' Boy network, but at this point we just need a guy who isn't a yes man and has a different perspective. I'm not sure if Doug is that guy but if Gar is being phased out I can't really be mad at it. Either way they can't mess this rebuild up and I'm thinking they're using Doug, who is a real basketball guy, to make sure they don't miss on a few moves. Garpax has made it clear that they always cared more about generating revenue and filling up the united center rather than competing for championships and improving the roster year to year, now that they're putting a garbage team out there attendance will lower, and that seat will keep getting warmer.

What makes you think he won't be a yes man? Remember him coaching the wizards? He was brought in specifically to be MJ's yes man. I'm sure he'll tow the garpax company line here as well.

Well I said I didn't know if Doug was that guy or not. At least the Wizards thing was just him coaching, which is an entirely different animal. It's fine though because if they blow this rebuild he'll be the first one out

Paxson was on the radio earlier he said gar aint goin no where and has done a good job.So I don't give a fukk about them hiring doug collins, it's business as usual wit the bulls.Paxson is basically in charge and taking the reigns more.They can't fukk it up if they get a top 2 pick and draft porter jr or bagley.Don't want that euro doncic he's hedo turkoglu 2.0 with elite passing ability but he's gonna be food defending 3's in the nba and can't create space or his own shot without a screen and that's in europe.Porter/Bagley,Markannan and Lavine with 40-50 mil in cap space is better than super maxing jimmy butler who woulda been pushin 30.

If dunn plays like he did at providence that makes it even better

NBA mock draft: New lottery picks for Cavs, Bulls, Knicks


1. Chicago Bulls


Luka Doncic
Real Madrid
Age: 18
SG





Doncic rockets up to the top spot on our board after a tremendous showing at Eurobasket, as detailed by Mike Schmitz. He was named to the All-Tournament team after holding his own, and then some, against numerous NBA players, setting the bar extremely high for the other NCAA-based candidates at No. 1.

Doncic will play a featured role for Real Madrid with the injury suffered by their star combo guard Sergio Llull, and will be scrutinized heavily for how effectively he's able to carry the scoring load in a go-to role.

Doncic posted historic numbers in the Euroleague, Spanish ACB for a 17-year old, thanks to an incredibly high basketball IQ and polished skill set that allows him to play both backcourt positions. He will now be asked to take his game to the next level, as he's finally NBA draft-eligible, which won't be an easy task. Scouts wonder if he's athletic enough to guard his position and create his own shot quite as seamlessly in the NBA as he does in Europe.

they need to capitalize and trade him when he gets his value up early on

the second year should be good selling point

There goes bulls winning them extra 7 meaningless games during March/April when Niko plays wit some consistency..

 

[j7thirty]

the same niko who was out the rotation multiple times last year and
the same niko who plays the same position as 2 of your last 3 1st round picks
the same niko who had no leverage at all you give him a 1 year no trade clause
