Bulls claim Kay Felder off waivers

[DASMACKDOWN]

I love it! Just like how Chicago loved Nate, the will love Felder. He will be a crowd favorite.

[weneeda2guard]

Felder has a lot of isaih thomas and nate Robinson in him, this is a dangerous move for those who want to tank.

We can't underestimate how bad the league is on the bottom. It's a legit 10 teams that want a top 3 pick, and many of them already stopped showing effort in the preseason. The last thing you need is a team getting wins over teams that have quit in march and april. Felder, lavine, markennen, holiday and lopez could be stealing wins late in the season if they continue competing. Don't know if it's a smart move to add a guy who can come in and score in bunches.

bulls said they will anything to win lottery. I dont trust them, but let's see it. I must guess they will try move lopez or holiday or both of them soon opportunity comes. Or cut their minutes if we start winning games. There is no point in trying to win lottery if vets on this team play big role and major minutes.

Holiday is on a nice cheap contract. I'd hope they could snag an early 2nd round pick. I won't dream to think they could get a 1st rounder for him but he could be a nice pickup for a Western Conference team.

This is garpax, it would not shock me to see the team totally switch the plan mid season. They can't stick to anything.

I'm not totally convinced anymore that the jimmy move was simply to tank. A part of me feels they really didn't like jimmy , def didn't want to pay him and felt jimmy was stunting the implementation of hoiball.

So if lavine comes in and shines very bright, holiday is already looking like a light version of jimmy, and something good comes out of markennen, Felder and even niko, this team could def say screw it, tell those guys fight for the playoffs earn they millions from playoff revenue and add a couple players in free agency. I wouldn't be shocked at all if that became the plan , hell a part of them would love it to be that way to rub it in everyone nose they are a quality front office and it was just jimmy holding them back.

Why are we calling Ryan Arcidiacono "Archie" ....it's 1/3 of his last name for goodness sake.

Unless that's his real life nickname?

I don't understand the fascination with Felder.

I don't understand the pessimism with Felder.

C'mon now..you have been on this board long enough to understand that the Bulls could pick up the next Magic Johnson and half this board would blast them...simply because the Bulls FO can be given no credit. We have uproars over who we invite to camp spots when we know they will never see an NBA court.

(Of course, Felder is no Magic Johnson. That was a hyperbolic name drop for effect as some don't seem to be able to be able to differentiate).

No. I understand...

Shame that our players will be devalued because of who brought them here. But that's reality I guess.

Not to say that I like or support GarPax either btw... But I hold no grudges on their players because of them. The players can create my grudges all by themselves...

I do it just because I'm not a fan... So I guess your point is correct...

I can never remember how to spell his last name. Archie is easier. I even called him by his initials one time to shorten it up even more

[Stratmaster]

So **** happy cam Payne is gone!!!!

You know the old saying "Gone but not forgotten"?

In this case he is forgotten, but not gone.

[rtblues]

Felder >>>> Archie
Period, the End.
He can bring the ball up against pressure, leap, and get his own shot, three Archie can't do.

[Jeffster81]

Not going to lie never heard of the guy. Quite frankly i thought Kay Felder is a name of a jewelry store chain.

[donaldtrump_00]

Kay Felder, could we be interested from him?

https://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/247602/Kay-Felder-Unlikely-To-Make-Cavaliers-Regular-Season-Roster

Just what i wrote in the trade thread 5th of October , will be fascinating to see what he will bring as he is really feisty and bouncy with a 44" vertical. High energy guy.

bulls front office is just pg crazy. is this fire for kris dunn. hes our starting pg of the future. I guess chi is expecting a injury.and why is everyone so critical of cam payne. the man has scoring skills.felder is definently the fourth pg off the bench. its really arcidiacono who is last. regurardless of his pg skills I don't think the fo has any intention on playing him in the regular season.so now its grant and felder as the backup. dunn comes back hes the backup then wins the starting spot during the season

[League Circles]

I think his great vall handling and shiftiness will be great for our other PGs to defend in practice.

[Evil_Headband]

Kind of weird that the Cavs threw in cash and picks to dump Felder and Jefferson when the Bulls had interest in Felder. Cavs and Bulls should have worked out something better.

[fleet]

This team just got a lot better.

I am 100% serious.

It's all relative, of course, going from "pretty, pretty, pretty horrible", to "pretty, pretty horrible". Or possibly "pretty horrible".

[sco]

I feel like this is my fantasy basketball team. You know how when you don't draft a good guy at one position, you end-up picking-up a bunch of "potential" guys, hoping that one of them pans-out. It is likely we don't have a good PG on the roster. I'm all for try-out everyone we can find until someone sticks.

[SimonFish]

Chicago Bulls - where you have a million of point guards but none of them are good.

[ChiTownHero1992]

Wish we had kept Stone and waived Payne...but idk, i'm not high on Felder either but i'm willing to see what he has in the tank

[Chi]

Not sure why he wouldn't be in the competition with Dunn and Grant...

I think he has as much if not way more potential than both of them...
