Both Zipser & Felicio are gems the FO has found.

Doug getting burned on every possession. Christ Doug, you have to get at least passable on defense.

Zipser can shoot but also put the ball on the floor. He's smart and plays under control

Niko looking like he realizes his future in Chicago is fading away in front of him.

Bulls best actual lineup is playing no PG, just can't do it for 48.

We need more Zipsers and Felicios. How many 2nd round picks can we get for Niko?

Nice win. Pretty much lead from start to finish. Heck of a game.

On that play we see what Doug can do when he dribbles...basically take two steps in and then quickly hot potato the ball back to Jimmy

I wonder if Zipser will be able to maintain this shooting - he's been shooting really well and some tough looks as well. I question the sustainability. Love what we've seen from him though.

Zipset is legit player. Would provide some nice depth on a legit team off the bench. Felicio too

Now all he needs to do is remove Grant from the rotation and get Valentine back in.

He had guys ahead of him. He fought his way there and coach has rewarded him

Like you said buy time with Rondo with the 2nd group and go no PG other times

His play also gives us a bit of flexibility to include Doug in a deal at the deadline.

Yeah, he waited his turn and now he is being rewarded, that's the way it should be. Same situation with Jimmy. Then there is players like Portis who basically got force-fed minutes for over a month and didn't improve at all, if anything he regressed every single game.

Sometimes a player just isn't ready but once given the opportunity they make the most of it. If Paul can become a really good bench player that's a huge win. If he ends up being our starter next season, we scored another draft gem.

I disagree. Like you said, Portis was being forced minutes, yet Zipser was wasting on the bench.

But how do we know Zipser was ready then? Fred went with him out of the blue so he must of proved himself
