To saying they are worried about him that he is not going to stay healthy not sure why the FO got him in a matter of a few preseason games lol
I personally love PG but right now he's looking like Shawn Bradley. A big in the paint, blocking shots, clogging up the lane and not moving particularly well. I know he's frustrated and he's gelling with his new team (only been 8 games) but it's hard to watch.
Doug is going to need half the season and the player with the most promise, Mirotic, won't play much this season. So the Bulls are relying on the development of two rookies & Mike Dunleavy to take our league worst 3-pt shooting to what? 5-6 spots higher?
This season really comes down to Jimmy taking a leap forward (the leap he was expected to take last season per Thibs). I think he'll be improved but he's not a scorer, he's a do-it-all forward.
You're not getting past Cavs, Spurs or OKC trying to hold them under 85 ppg.
It's all on D-Rose again, THIS alone is my problem. Oh, and Tom Thibs putrid offensive scheme. It's predictable and it sucks.
Oh and we lack a serious amount of athleticism.
I'm not being a negative nancy though, I just realize we aren't of the tier yet.
Love the Bulls regardless.
