My prediction will be Derozan if the Bulls keep sucking and we keep hearing reports about Lavine being unhappy with his role

Don’t think DeRozan is the answer. He operates in the same space as Butler. We need to really go all out in supplementing the front court with real size


My dream scenario not including stars is still Turner, Buddy or Bojan, and Bey or Naz. There are tons of options though outside of those guys too.

Bamba
Kuzma
Collins
KP
Morris
Covington
Wood
DFS
Kleber
Lauri
Vanderbilt
Ko
DLo
OG
Trent Jr
Oubre
PJW

And even more.

I'd like Nikola Vucevic. We'll keep playing small ball with BAM at C and Vucevic as a PF. He scores and shoots 3s.

Getting him and Dragic would be solid additions from the Bulls. Need someone to add some scoring

Derozan wouldn't be my first choice either but when you factor in Butler missing 20+ games a season and then if we want to keep him fresh for the playoffs like a Kawhi lite, then Derozan starts to make sense. Not my first choice but it could work.

Not sure if mentioned here, Herro is currently 5th in the NBA for 3s made per game with 3.3, right behind him M.Beasley at 3.2 per game.

Looking at the rate of 3pt made PER36 for Miami and their NBA rank.
13 - Herro at 3.4
17 - Robinson 3.3
21 - Strus 3.2
83 - Lowry 2.3
138 - Martin 1.7

OKC has the #1 3pt made of qualified players in I.Joe at 4.7 3s made a game in 403 minutes and he's shooting 3s at a 45% clip. Beasley is tied for 2nd at 4.4 with Hyland and Thompson.

I do not agree with this, they are almost identical in the shot chart, regardless of games played by Jimmy you don't add another guy who clogs the paint even more to make Bam less efficient. You either trade jimmy for some size, while taking on Derozan as well but you don't replicate our **** azz offense to greater heights.

If they were playing the same position but DeRozan has been playing some PF in the last few years so if Spoelstra wants to continue the small swarm ball, DeRozan would be a huge upgrade over Martin in the starting lineup playing the 4. Are there better fits out there? Absolutely but don't ignore how much it would help to add a nearly 27 ppg player the last 2 years at the PF position.

Vucevic used to cook us when he was with Orlando. He's cooked us with the Bulls too

Duncan Jovic 2/3 1sts and Dedmon for Lauri and Vanderbilt


The time to get Markannen was last summer. Back then, he was looking like a depressed asset, another middling lottery pick who can score a little but not much else. I don’t think anyone predicted he’d break out this hard when given greater offensive freedom on a team with no expectations.

What we need to do is find the next Markannen.

Nah for arguments sake say we got Markannen, Spo would bench him for one of our G-Z league players. He would want Markannen to go play in the G-league for the year before even considering giving him a shot. This is not our first rodeo with Spo. No what we need assuming Spo is still here and has complete freedom, we need players that he will actually play.

That could be someone like Naz Reid.

I need Riley to wake up and turn Butler and Lowry into Russell, Reid, Bridges, Crowder and picks.
For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?
