If we stay at 6 (or even drop to 7) I think we will end up with Bamba.

Pax clearly wants a wing, and has a huge crush on Robin Lopez. If MPJ is there he will be taken before Bamba. Guarantee it.

[HomoSapien]

I totally forgot this was going on. We won the tiebreaker??

We won the tiebreaker between the Kings and lost(ish) the one for the Pelicans pick. We officially have the 22nd pick, and have the tiebreaker for the 6th pick.

[TheFinishSniper]

Fair point...but...

I dont think Lauri NEEDS the ball...Mikal doesn't need the ball IMO...and we wouldn't know who #6 would be?

Dunn and LaVine are more ball needy that not...so I guess #6 pick would tip it one way or another.

Valid concern though.

If Dunn needs ball I am more than welcome give PG starting spot to Cameron Payne. I am not passing on better talent because Kris Dunn needs ball in his hand. Still too early to talk about this.

[NecessaryEvil]

So u dont want to give the ball to a player who is only getting better and can get to any spot on the floor he wants?

ok

[R3AL1TY]

Dunn just needs to get better at making shots in the paint and in protecting the ball. His ball usage still isn't ridiculous like some of the top players in the league. He at least has proven with more playing time he can be serviceable and make more shots.

But this is good news that the Bulls have now finished at #6. It seems like this is a sweet spot to get a player that slips or to trade up a slot or two.

Lopez is 30. I would like to keep him as Bull for life, but he will be past his prime by the time we are ready to compete. He has a future here, but not as our starting center past the next couple of seasons.

[DuckIII]

Awesome! So we have #6 unless someone jumps us (including the kings)!

Which means we have a 96% chance of picking no lower than 7.

I think u guys read way too much into insignificant statements.

the draft isnt until the 21st of June. We need a wing, that doesnt guarantee he'll take one though.

No offense

[DuckIII]

Im uneasy about that 1 in 3 chance of getting leapfrogged.

Rest easier: there’s only a 4.6% chance we fall to 7.

[fleet]

More importantly...has MPJ put out the Bulls signal yet...

I wonder if we'd be able to trade into the top 4 if we dangled 6/7, Denzel, and the 22nd pick.

I got news for bulls fans. We probably shouldn't have to trade denzel to move up. Just let the magic take trae young which I clearly see them taking. If Im right were really the 5th selection. Were not drafting young period so him being off before we pick opens up more of a chance at either porter, bamba, bagley. So if everything plays out were still picking top 5. Even with mikal bridges being on paxsons radar I doubt we pass on those 3. Even with bridges I'm happy. I personally think he's a top pick and could turn out better then all of the preferred picks.

Statistically speaking, the Bulls have:

* 5.3% chance of #1
* 6.0% chance of #2
* 7.0% chance of #3

* 44.0% chance of #6
* 33.1% chance of #7
* 4.5% chance of #8
* 0.1% chance of #9

When you put it like that....

44% only. What is our chance of finishing 6 or higher?

If Bridges ends up the best player it will be the worst draft since Kenyon Martin went #1.

At worst we drop one spot to 7th. Not bad because I think someone will draft Trae Young earlier than expected.

Also you should be asking what are our odds of finishing top 3 and those numbers are right in front of you. We can't finish 4th or 5th.

[fleet]

So, generally like 62% chance of 6 or higher, 38% chance 7 or lower?

Yes.

For sh**s and giggles we should ask DRose to represent the team at the lottery drawing. That would be wierd based on history.

To represent the team at the lottery you must be member of organization. That's the rule.
