What’s the rules there I wonder? In some countries, stealing is no joke.

Rumor is he stole a pair of 'BBB' sneaks thinking some knock-off market was selling their shows, but they were actually Beijing Basketball Brand.

On the bright side, if the lawyers can't get him out of some jail time, Lavar will just speak his freedom into existence.

Get em Lavar. Big ballers don't let big ballers go to jail.

So Kyle Lowry's scoring volume has dropped dramatically, he's complaining about the new offense, and his back is acting up. Seems like we made a smart move in staying away from him.

I'm sure Bryan will trade for him at some point.

Monk went off in the 1st half against the Knicks. 18 points in the first half and 4 3 pointers.

So is Jeremy Lamb finally breaking out? It seems like he's always on a breakout watch list. Maybe this is finally the year.

The jumper might not be real, though.

Porzingis is doing well, he and Kanter are a good combination, so far.

I get that Kanter is an established NBA contributor, but I think New York is messing up by not continuing to develop Hernangomez.

He was very strong defensively and he was scoring at a legit rate last year.

Kanter is very good, he's just completely unplayable against most of the top teams in the league. If you're the Knicks that's not really going to come up.

Hernangomez is nothing special, only 2 years younger than Kanter too.

I know a lot of people hate it because he's fun to **** on, but Kris Dunn has put together a couple of really good games recently.

I know I already brought this up, but Brogdon and Snell are shooting out of their minds from 3 this year. That has to be the Giannis effect. I know Snell has a shooting reputation, but Brogdon?

Denzel Valentine sucked as a rookie, but looks to be developing into a legit rotational player.

I think that's what the Bulls as a whole are right now, a bunch of solid rotation players.
