I'm gonna hate watching Coby fire up contested midrange jump shots while not even looking at Lauri or WCJ.

I'm not the biggest fan of White, but he should slot in very well. I'm very happy that the Bulls didn't give up future assets to move up though, but would have preferred if they traded down.

Only drawback for me is that I don't see him as a high ceiling player, but with a decent floor. It will make our backcourt really interesting and fun to watch at the very least, because he will push the pace and force players to run with him, which will be a refreshing change.

I don't see him as starting as a rookie, we will need to bring in a veteran point guard to start for a season or two.

He has the tools. If the shot translates, he will be OK. He has the speed and the motor to make an impact on both ends. Seems like he has the work ethic, too.
Also, if he wrote that Player's Tribune entry all by himself, that's impressive.

I Really like White, and I think most of you will also come to like him.

But damn, being that close to Culver really stings.
Constantly underwhelmed by the Bulls.

White and LaVine in transition should be fun.

Wasn't my favorite, but what do I know. I'll be rooting for him to make it.

Disappointing, not a guy I had very high.

But put in the hard work young man and you’ll be solid.

Get Rose or Brogdon in free agency and this stings less.

I've never understood why people rage before players even suit up?

Give him a chance before crapping all over the pick.

Bulls need a PG and got one. Not a bad shooter and is quick. Don't see anyone else compelling in that spot.

So follow the draft read up and watch players and then have no opinion?
