did some research last night. Aaron Gordon isnt really like Derrick Williams or Wesley Johnsonm imo. way higher IQ than both, more athletic than both, much better defender than both. they have similar physical tools, but Gordon is a better basketball player than both of them right now for various reasons. Just has a better feel for the game. great court vision, understands off-ball movement, etc. not a safe pick but could end up being a championship caliber player, ala Lamar Odom

Vonleh is growing on me too, but he's def a project.

Taj Gibson told he’ll start; Carlos Boozer exit imminent - Chicago Sun-Times
:leon: Cupcake needs to hit up the Bulls for Snoozers contract for one (more preferably both) of the Bulls draft picks. Aaron Gordon & Zach Lavine could be a nice haul actually if we get the Bulls 16 pick. :manny: Getting Snoozer's contract would mean there goes our max contract spot, but fukk it, need to build for the future, plus Snoozer could be a good expiring contract at the trade deadline.

By the time we pick there is a high chance smart and randle will be off the table. Instead of gordon or vonleh, how do people feel about zach lavine?
