KENNY COOKS THE CHICAGO BULLS

KENNY COOKS THE CHICAGO BULLS

What’s what’s the word y’all um quick quick video about the deadline okay um I I promise you I’m going get you a video about the winners and losers of the deadline um shout out to the Mavericks shout out to the Knicks who really dominated the deadline it was a it was

Not the best deadline we got spoiled last year and the year before that regardless I I’m G to put together video talking about all of those things and we’re only two minutes outside the deadline Corey Joe just got traded so we got a few B buzzer yeah for some context

If if I clip this up on YouTube I I was I was watching other people’s streams while I was streaming Ken he ended that [ __ ] at like 302 so this is this is fresh off of him streaming he has a lot of energy going into this video bro he just coming in I

Just streamed the last two hours of the draft of the deadline I’m I’m so upset and disappointed about my favorite team and and over the last couple years I’ve been trying to balance the content right I’ve been trying to talk about the league at large and not let a bulk of my

Content be about my favorite team right I have to now I had never seen that before bro oh [ __ ] because this is the second straight deadline with the people up top sat on their hands and did nothing dear hey Kenny talking [ __ ] dog I ain’t G to lie

I I need to see this side of Kenny Moore bro I need to see this side of Kenny Moore man and and and this is why I was talking about um the the NBA Community being toxic and things of that nature not to make it like a big rant but at

The end of the day we are all fans of the game at the end of the day we have favorites we have preferences show that [ __ ] dog [ __ ] want to take this basketball [ __ ] so serious people want to be so objective as much as possible that you don’t you don’t even like enjoy

Like the the enjoyment part of the game goes away you know not not saying that that’s Kenny but that’s for a lot of people that’s for a lot of people bro like this this [ __ ] is not that serious it is it at the end of the day it is a

Form of entertainment have fun with it you know have fun with it Rosen expiring contract well he had two years left on his deal last year we should have traded him then I I I love demard de rosen’s game I’m thinking about the grand scheme of this team right anything I say in

This video is not a personal attack on these players or their basketball playing ability because these guys DeMar rosen isn’t a phenomenal basketball player but I’m thinking about the future of the Bulls the now of the Bulls in this this team right Demar Rose should have been n that hey hey that’s a

Stephen A that’s a Stephen a uh preface right there man that’s a Stephen a preface right there now you do have to do a lot and I do think it says a lot that you even have to preface your statements like that cuz you you’re actually connected to these dudes you’ve had conversations

With these dudes but o okay okay I feel it I feel tra 34 years old last year of his contract the Bulls offered him an extension a few months ago he didn’t like the number right and he still hasn’t been traded so that tells me one of two things this offseason he’s going

To walk for nothing or we’re going to overpay to keep Demar de rozan on the team until he’s 37 years old right Alice Caruso is having a phenomenal phenomenal season he’s one of the best defensive players in all of basketball and this year he’s actually attempting to score

The ball last year he was a super valuable asset to potentially be moved and that was before he was shoot a 40% from three he has this year and next year on his contract personally because I see that this team is destined for another 36- 42 wins I I am team even

Though we love Alice Caruso and trust me I do that we need to capitalize on the value because Alice Caruso being on this team in this moment in time is not winning us a playoff series so let’s trade him while he’s at the peak of his

Powers while his Market is at an alltime high do you know how many contenders called about Alis guso to be shut down in the last every single goddamn one of them dog every single goddamn one of them dog gez and this is why my biggest pet peeve in in the League’s Purgatory teams

Dog and always has been always will be because in every single one of these situations there are actually quality NBA role players not not even not even role players there are quality NBA players that could be spending their time either being developed properly or playing high level winning basketball

But are just being withered away because their front offices do not know what the [ __ ] to do with them are in are and are incapable of making smart decisions the mar with how he’s playing right now should be playing high level basketball especially at 33 he should be playing highle basketball Alex Caruso

Should not be wasting these last two years on a team that cannot play highlevel basketball Zack LaVine same thing hell damn near Kobe white I would love to see Kobe white in a situation where he can develop properly but because this team is just laying in the middle can they be a

Playing team are they are they rebuilding now we’re even wasting that this [ __ ] is ass bro two weeks we keeping them and the next year I’m just going to assume based on the track record we’re gonna keep him then and he’s going to go he’s going to walk for nothing or we’re

Going to overpay him I’m just I I when this front off this new front office came in guard packs was gone boom I hated having guard PX as my general manager/ basketball operations guy they did a bunch of stuff that I hated I dropped a whole diss track on on this

YouTube channel I think because I wanted them gone and they left and I’m like yes we finally going to have a savior of Chicago it’s Mark everle it’s art Tunis Carney Chas they gonna come in they gonna write the ship boom immediately they trade for Nia vous they trade

Window Carter the pck that became France Vagner and so on and so forth I oh I didn’t know that I didn’t know that became France o ooh oh okay the moment of time enjoyed that trade because it was something that was vich was coming off an All-Star year

I was just you know what you know what Chicago was trying to do too and I I think I I’ll throw Chicago Bale in this front cuz I threw Atlanta Bale in a similar fashion I think what they were trying to do was build some sort of New York

Knicks what what the New York Knicks are right now right and they showed promise within like the the first 20 games of like lonzo’s healthy season right um sometimes you make deals on pay I I also think Chicago is one of those teams like New York that yo that that

Franchise is just looking for winning basketball for a couple of years they just want to be proud to be Chicago Bulls fan they want especially with the with the attendance thing that we were talking about they are a diard fan base that just wants to be proud to call

Themselves a Chicago Bulls fan so when they brought in Demar when they had Zack LaVine when they brought in vvi brought in Lonzo brought in Alex Caruso that was the idea is to build a fun team that this fan base could be proud of right but when Zack LaVine gets injured when

Lonzo gets injured you know all all of these things happen hindsight is 2020 and ultimately you have to deal with the cards that you’re dealt with but back then you made the decisions that honestly made made sense on paper and things just didn’t work out right just because the outcome is the

Outcome doesn’t necessarily mean that you made the wrong decision going into it does that make sense shout out to panic R for the prime but there’s certain things in life that are just like that like oh you know you you thought this was going to happen um on paper everything made sense but

What you went out there and actually made that decision the outcome that you wanted just it didn’t end up happening so you didn’t necessarily make the wrong decision made the right decision the wrong outcome just came from it so it’s excited for that trait we go get DeMar

Rosen love it Lonzo ball love it since then nothing has happened oh in the 2021 NBA season the 2021 2022 NBA season or maybe my years mixed up the Bulls went into the allstar break with the number one seed in basketball Lonzo ball is there the Bulls are hooping demard Rose is an

Allar level again everything is great we have Peak Vibes y but but under under the hood of this and and if if that team just kept on going the way that it was going I genuinely think Chicago Bulls fans would have been fine with that they would have

Been excited for that even if they were a real Championship Contender or not they just want something to root for it that’s what I’m saying Chicago pools you’re like hm this team is 2 and3 against teams above 500 should we worry about that n we good The Vibes are great

Lonzo ball goes down with his injury and now we fall down and we make the playoffs we lose in the first round next season come around they say hey zo’s goingon to be good we going to run it back and in this moment of time I’m like

Cool zo is a crucial part of the team running the back is not a bad idea we run it back and things get dramatically worse Lonzo ball is not coming back it’s now been two full seasons two full years since we seen Lonzo ball suit up and

Play basketball um shout out to Lonzo get well soon this team this organization this ownership group and these people in the front office are are hoping to rekindle the fire that was 2021 2022 yeah we are two full years away from that at some point you got to let

It go at some point you got got to let it go um and two years after the fact to to hold on to what Li just said a a stretch of games that ultimately was just a small sample size and two when y’all face good teams y’all weren’t playing that well y’all

Had to let it go let it go way sooner than this way way sooner than this that that streak where we were good against really bad teams and to see that not even the smallest asset Drummond is a player on this team that has been super valuable I’ve enjoy

Drummond’s time with Chicago Bull I’m pretty sure he’s not going to be on the team next year I’m pretty sure that the 76ers that the Warriors that a couple different teams the Dallas Mavericks before they traded for for uh Gafford were calling about drum and instead of taking these calls

And and taking the best trade package for him he’s going to be on the roster for the rest of the season again it’s not a attack on him because he’s been phenomenal this year that too they found a g Andre drumman too that had like

Trade value like he he he he op he upped his stock as much as he could given everything that we knew about Andre drumond going up to the season and they still held on to him dog what are we what not we what are they doing but he’s

Also playing a lot better than the contract that he’s I think I have that same futon in the back same thing I said about dear either we’re going to overpay him this off these people came the office I’m trades are still happing I assum so I’m just

I’m just yeah okay just the last one was a second round pick for Cory Joe these guys came into the front office and and told us a ball face lie we will not accept mediocrity you will not accept mediocrity okay I love that because the last front office was very okay with

Mediocrity you tell me he’s going crazy he’s going going in the last two years going he going what team has been more mediocre than the Chicago Bulls average than the Chicago Bulls it does not exist and we just walked into another deadline and did nothing the people in the front office

Have made one trade over the last two seasons one trade that’s 30th in the league the 29th they yeah they they are literally the definition of doing nothing is the wrong decision team has done seven so there’s a six trade gap between our front office in the second to last front office six

Trades and and Kenny what is the trade they did they traded two second round picks to get one second round pick no you hey Chad y’all see the pain in his [ __ ] eyes dog I feel bad bro I feel you he literally staring at our souls

Bro oh my God I feel so bad bro this is a broken man right NBA wise this is a broken fan right here bro this is a broken fan right here and shout out to Julian Phillips I’ve been enjoying him play but that is the deal that we’ve done

Like my job is to try to cover this sport in an entertaining matter and as objective as possible right this team is making me not want to do that you don’t you don’t have to Kenny you don’t have to bro you don’t have to I ain’t I ain’t going to

Lie sometimes you a lot of times you don’t have to be objective man and I think that that was your whole purpose with enjoy basketball too is is to bring that fun element back into basketball conversations um I and I I think the the whole purpose of

That movement is again to to get away from the toxicity of the NBA Community sometimes the less toxic thing you can do is to just have fun talking about basketball then Embrace her biases when you try to be as objective as possible obviously trying to have objective conversations I’m not taking

Away from from objective conversations but sometimes like the the the best thing you can do as a fan and to be as real as possible is to be subjective show your feelings man like he at the end of the day too A lot of the things

That we talk about is just opinions at the end of the day you know so just wait until the Celtics fail to win and Tatum signs for the Lakers you’re goingon to be just like him and I will be Silva I don’t I don’t know what you want me to to to

Do if slash when that [ __ ] happens I I will be and it is fine because I am a fan of something I have preferences sometimes you just got to embrace that [ __ ] team that that got me into loving the game of basketball that it is become my whole career one of the biggest

Things about who I am as a person is the Chicago Bulls in this team it’s making me not want to do that bro there I went on this a small rent a couple hours ago during the deadline about this front office and I feel like a broken record

Because this video I made four or five years ago about the previous regime the previous regime is better than these guys oh wow better the one thing about the previous regime even though they also were okay with mediocrity at least they drafted well at least they brought

In Jimmy Butler with the Third 30th overall pick at least they found Bobby poris and in the end of the first round at least they found this guy that guy they did things well this team a these guys have not drafted well they have not put together really good

Trades the two good things that this front office has done is get Alex Caruso away from the Lakers beautiful beautiful thing Alex kuso again is a stud one of the best defensive players of basketball one of the most valuable pieces that was potentially being moved and he wasn’t

Moved they get that all of the credit the second thing was bringing in Lonzo ball right these dudes cheat they they got caught cheating to do that so you got two really good moves two really good moves and one of them the NBA told you you did illegally and four

Years Kobe white is in running for most improved player he’s been killing the game right that’s not their pickup they extended him that’s not their pickup think about that and and and it all starts from up top Yep this ownership group does not care I will say this a a thema this

Year for a lot of the blame game conversations that we have it starts up top bro it starts up top and I’m I I think this is the the evolution of of that conversation you know for years we were blaming the players ah this this player can’t get it

Done ah ah and then we moved on to coaches oh my God his schemes are uh uh uh uh uh he can’t manage his rotations he lost the locker room this this that and the third um but ultimately it does it it does boil down

To the front office at the at the end of the day I think um more often than not the the the party that should get a majority of the blame is the front office it does take an entire organization and I am not saying that even when I say this that the front

Office deserves 100% of the blame but again I will bring it back to content creator terms you can blame as you can blame an editor as much as you can but at the end of the day who vetted out that editor at the end of the day

Who hired that editor at the end of the day who put their trust into that editor and made the decision that yo this is my guy right when when they had options when they had time to choose um you know who’s the right person for this job if

If I hire some if I hire someone and he is the wrong person for the job while there is accountability to be held for that employee for not performing a task asked from him it is at the end of the day up to uh um on me for hiring the wrong

Person you know they and and people keep tweeting at me Kenny the Bulls are top three in attendance where y’all need to boycott and maybe that’ll do something bro oh you just in the spam chat that doesn’t matter spam chats because the year that the Bulls were 22 and 60 we

Were top dur in theend Stand they’re not keeping this mediocre team together to sell tickets because it doesn’t it doesn’t matter what product they put on the court US Bulls fans We R for our team we’re one of the biggest markets in the in the world so whether

The team is winning seven games or 70 games the United Center is going to be packed I was a season ticket holder the year they won 22 out of 82 games damn I drove 40 minutes to United Center doing a [ __ ] blizzard oh because I love the

Bulls so the people that’s saying oh they’re being mediocre to sell tickets they’re going to sell tickets regardless so what is the other reason to be mediocre other than the front office is afraid to look like jackasses again and guess what they have you still look like

It every other person in the Indian world is looking at the bus like he’s going off bro what are they doing what are they doing there’s I don’t understand it nah the first game of the NBA season happened and the team had a players only meeting

That was the moment in time where you should have been like all right these next three months we’re going to evaluate our talent and figure out who we want to build with that was what I convinced myself you were doing no ww no w w they want they want

To be Danny a without putting in the work to be Danny a you have to accept the fact that the some of the trades you’re going to do you’re going to walk out as losers in the moment they want to trade all of their assets for seven first round picks

Plus three competent players that’s not the reality of the league bro it’s just not these two in other words Kenny calling them [ __ ] man I I I ain’t gonna lie man not he not he’s not being direct with saying it but yeah this this ront office is [ __ ]

D Tim Connelly drafted Nia yic and aruni Carney sis was there and now he runs B what are you going to do with the Celtics a poverty franchise I know he’s going to out I he’s goingon to do something crazy everybody want to know what I would do if I didn’t

Win I guess we’ll never know type [ __ ] that’s what I’ll do that’s what I’ll do it’s my favorite team I I’m I’m I’m about to go upstairs shower I’m taking a trip to Milwaukee I’m going to watch Bucks versus timberwol today and I’m not even going

To think about the Bulls for the rest of the night but I had to get out this video and there’s a lot that I ain’t even say it but I had to get out this video back to the normal schedule stuff starting tomorrow where we talk about

The Knicks we talk about the Mavericks and we talk about some of the real people that made real moves I appreciate you for watching damn damn man listen listen Kenny maybe you know there’s protections that you you know you want to protect and I get it cuz even even when um people were

Spamming that that chat in your chat I said on my stream like yo you think Kenny wants to ruin his relationship with the Chicago Bulls what we got bills to pay But ultimately you can you can still get your [ __ ] off without doing that you know what I’m saying like it’s okay to

Be a bias fan I think every every everyone has biases at the end of the day every everyone has biases at the end of the day and it’s okay to lean into them um it is part that that is a part of enjoying basketball is to to root for

Something you know is is to let your emotions get the best of you so shout out to Big Kenny man
