If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

I'm 87.3% sure I'm going on July 8th and 9th. In case anyone wants to meet up and act obnoxious.

Not sure Grant play, but I'd like to see him do so.

Payne will play I'm sure, of course draft picks #16, #38 also.

It'll be interesting if Zipser decides to play.

I don't think Zipser will play. I think it will be Payne, the draft picks and some summer pickups, like that guy from Valpo the Bulls had in for a workout.

He is a rotation player at this point. I don't think Niko ever played in summer league and Zipser is playing as much as Niko did his rookie year. The Bulls will want to how the new rookies play more than Paul.

I enjoy summer league. Lived in Vegas for 11 years, used to go every summer. Easy to sit court side if you get there early enough.

Zipser should definitely play, and it looks like he is.

Zipser showed flashes, but he is a long way to becoming a consistent contributor and that's what we need him to be. If it will help for him to play in the summer league and gets work on the skills he is currently working on, even better.

I'd like to see him work on his handles this off season, because he has proven that for his size, he is deceptively quick and has a pretty darn good first step.
Why so serious?

Let's re-claim the crown!

(one of Fox or Josh Jackson on the squad would go a long way to helping that, wink wink).

Hopefully the existing young guys go alright, though. They've definitely been talking the talk on Instagram about their hard work. Let's see if it translates to better play, because we really need some of these guys to step up.

PG Dunn / Payne
SG Valentine
SF Zipser
PF Markkanen

Will Grant play? My guess is not. I wonder who we sign for frontcourt and wing rotation. Teams around the league already signed majority of undrafted high-ranked prospects so my guess is we are left with leftovers and unknowns from small colleges.
