Is there a way to sim to the end so we can skip this whole year and get to this part? All we need is a patch from 2K.

Do we have to select the prospect in the draft or can we let the assistant GM do it for us?

Only the suns? You got Brooklyn(who lost Lin for a year on top of that), Knicks, Indiana, Atlanta,Detroit,Dallas, philly(haven’t proven anything yet)who are also bad.


I only mentioned the suns because they started off with the worst opening game loss in NBA history. That is going to be tough to compete with. They are showing they can be serious contenders. I agree the rest of that group has potential - except for Philly who I think is going to win a few more games this year. They gotta start winning a few games sometime.

Will be interesting to see how much energy they come out with. Considering all that happened.

I expect a good beat down loss. Down 25 early to a vet team at their place on opening night. They will let us back into the game though. We will go on a run and still lose by 12-15.

Its a beautiful thing too if Lauri can bomb away and play well.

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've got a good feeling about Lauri. I think the Bulls got themselves a player on draft night.

Here's to hopefully the beginning of a fine career, kid.

All that said, let's hope this is the first loss (of many) and we get him a hell of a teammate next June.

What makes a good Bulls tank season?

-65+ in the loss column
-couple of dubs vs lebron
-maybe one dub vs the dubs
-a few highlight wins in exciting fashion sprinkled throughout
-young players developing
-additional assets obtained during season
-players play hard for the coaching staff every night i.e. positive locker room culture
Be curious, Not judgmental
