Him and Coby is a guaranteed Play-in team so I guess the Bulls are just gonna be happy with that exact result for the next decade just like the last.


One of the worst front offices of all time imo.

They had a 40 win team gifted DRose and thats the only thing they've "done" in 27 years post MJ. Almost 3 decades of scrub sauce.

He was having a rough game compared to how he has played recently. But even still, he 1) shot well from three and 2) drew a lot of fouls. He has All-Star upside if the shooting and foul drawing development is legit.

He had a rough game and casually put up a 25 point triple double. :lol:

Bro, he's just actually might be that good. The more impressive play was the initial steal that gave them the first lead. He's somehow always around the ball. 10+ steals in two games against the Lakers.

It's not the same FO the entire time you know.

Krause sucked after Phil/MJ were gone.

GarPax were decent all things considered and the Rose ACL tear hampered that team a lot in terms of contending. They made a big mistake firing Thibs though.

The Curry trade, hiring Thibbs, the Caruso signing, the Giddey trade, and drafting Deng, Noah, and Butler was were good moves.

Firing Thibbs, the Butler trade, and other trades and signings were bad moves.

They’ve made good moves and bad moves, and are now on their 3rd FO since 1998, but if you look at the average NBA team I’m not sure they’re better or worse.

I **** my pants on that play... Steal an inbound play from LeBron a la Larry Bird on the Pistons and drop a dime for a clutch Coby White 3.

And then a half-court buzzer beater on LeBron's grill.. that was a surreal experience.

Very similar play with Lebron playing the part of Isiah Thomas this time. Gotta say pretty lazy and careless inbound by Lebron though. I think Giddy is a bit more athletic than the eye test indicates in terms of his quickness and he clearly has crazy high awareness on defense. Teams will start scouting him differently I think moving forward.
