Let me ask you, do you think Niko is playing up to his potential?


I'm a Niko fan, and it's getting really hard to defend him. He's far from projection... wayyyy off..


I guess I think the standard that's being set for him is absolutely insane. He was a late-first-round pick - a spot where a lot of players wash out of the league - and he's been a (borderline?) starting-caliber player. Yet people say because he's not the all-time steal the Bulls and fans expected - an All-Star drafted in the late first-round - he's a failure. That's nuts. Appreciate what you have - a quality rotation player - not what you don't - an insane draft steal.

That dirty work RoLo did that secure the second possession that lead to Butler 3 was really underrated.

Jimmy's pick and roll defense has stunk this quarter. Luckily he wasn't involved in the last possession.

That's fine but he's no longer untradeable assets that's worth keeping if the right deal comes along.

Randle plays like a possessed bull. He just tries shoving every single thing.

Niko overplayed the right there, if Randle makes anything going to his right there, tip the cap; can't allow Randle to force you middle then drop to the dominant hand.

Randle is built like a truck, no way Niko winning that matchup on the block.
