What an utter disaster of a season for Bogdanovic. He took less money than his market value to end up with the Hawks, never got comfortable and shot like crap, and now he's probably out for good after a freak injury.

Things are going downhill fast at Atlanta. Trey's numbers are down across the board from last year, they've lost 5 of their last 6, Collins is unhappy and the new core is injured. Ugh.

Things change fast in the NBA.



I wonder what has caused Trey's numbers to go down. As he goes, so goes the rest of that team, and you've seen it. Is it because Steve Nash called out what he was doing vs. Brooklyn, and the refs stopped allowing it. That's pretty much when the serious decline in play began for them.

Stupid Silver canceled Boston game with 5 of their players in protocol while Bulls played 7 games with 4 guys out. Not regular season imo.

The Celtics don’t have 8 guys available, I don’t know why people insist on making this an anti-Bulls and pro-Celtics move by the league. It sucks, but it’s just the reality right now.

If the NBA were to interfere by helping teams, so as to improve its popularity, making the Bulls better would be the league's second priority, after helping the Knicks. We would benefit from an actual conspiracy.

So apparently Jerami Grant is averaging 25 ppg, 6 rpg on good percentages!?!? I must have missed this. This guys career high is 13 ppg and was known for his defense.

Good for Detroit I guess.

Ive been a big Thibs backer in his years in Chicago. Some people complained about him "overplaying" his players but didnt feel it was hurting them too much cause they were still young. I dont blame him for Derrick's injury for instance.

But it can be said, he did affect the career life of Luol Deng and Joakim Noah. Those both were essentially retired at 30/31 years old.
I would say he easily knocked off 5 years of their careers.

In reality, it was only Jimmy that stood the test of time/minutes. The issue with Thibs is, not everyone is Jimmy Butler. We will see how many years RJ Barrett and Randle hold up playing 38 mins a night.

butler never plays a full season. He always has knee and ankle issues. This has been the case for years.

An off night for LaMelo as he shot 3-13 with 8pts. But then you see he had 14reb, 7ast, 3stl and 1blk with only 1TO. He's four days older than Project Pat. Unbelievable what this kid is doing already.

i think roses injury was directly related on the brutal practices he would put them through i think that weakend him and made him susceptible to the injury .....but either way only god know ....i think rose going down broke alot of us since we all saw the amazing years ahead and felt robbed of them and robbed of watching the most spectacular player ive seen since jordan and even in some instances to me he was better because he was our superhero and yes i know jordan was our also but rose felt like my generations Version of jordan and i speak for bulls fans only atleast
