What happened to pat
Jalen Smith needs too start.
Vuc is gone NXT year. We have too see what we have in the 2 young guys
Hayz you should have guy more often he is very good 👍
Vuc is not being traded. They want the salary cap space 14:09
Big Kev AKA 7'4"
Wow we do have 3 guys from the 2020 draft #4 #5 #10 wow
Collins is bigger, stronger and meaner than Smith. He also has more BB IQ (very good passer) and is a real center. Smith is really more of a four. His per minute numbers are really good, but his defense is poor. PWill is in NO way a PF. The Bulls are loaded at the 2/3, so Dalen just can't crack the top ten.
Calling 2 fowards double bigs is retar*e* how about having an actual Center
My man sound like James Earl Jones
45-37 with improvements on both offense and defense.
Tre Jones was in the 2020 draft too. P. Will went 4th Okoro 5th Jalen Smith 10th or 12th and Tre fell to the 2nd rd. Tre Jones is going to be the 2025 version of DeMar DeRozan. Mr 4th Qtr. He's a gem of a signing for the Bulls.
Bulls have a lot of mediocre depth at every position it seems. Billy has to almost be ready to spread the wealth and let them play. It’ll be good for the season but playoffs, you’ll need best 8-9 players.
⛽🌴🔥😶🌫️💨Coby playing Ayo level defense early would be impactful, bulls will probably end up with a lot of trade offers by the first 20 games+pre season if the development(barely year 2 for the staff) shows. Tre,Ayo,DT,JP,JS is a line up that I would like 2 see in preseason. Bulls NEED a starting center, all 3 current ones aren't tough enough when it's all said and done and JS has to get stronger and show he can be a stretch 5, his rebounding solid his defensive awareness needs to level up to be wanted here when the smoke clears.
I wonder if all the threes Jalen Smith took was a way of trying to prove he should be on the floor because of them. But I think he took WAY too many early in the clock bad ones
He should have pat c dub and big kev too
