Most teams are already resting guys. We don't need more than 3 preseason games imo. Hard to get too excited. Just watching to see Buzelis for a quarter or two. Regular season starts I'll be posting at least first few months. Hard to find another Bulls forum honestly, even tho this one isn't what it was when I was a youth.

I'll go ahead and make a sig bet that Mikal is better by RPM this year than Zach.

Prolly play a bit, they got some new pieces and he's such an iron man.

I know it’s only preseason, but Buzelis box scores look impressive and that he may take a larger step forward.

I haven’t had the chance to watch preseason play…. October is always a busy month work wise. Can someone tell me how he’s looked?

Like a budding star TBH. His shot looks pretty wet for a guy that came in with work to do and his driving game is better than ever.

I'll watch some.

Even though the outlook is extremely bleak...I cant help myself, even for preseason. Matas is going to end up as "the guy" here very shortly. Im enjoying this time right now because we still dont know his ceiling, and just that unknown makes him super fun to watch.

At least we know Giddey is capable when he's locked him. I don't think I've ever seen a locked in Vuc on defense.

I'm OK with the Matas TO because he's still learning. But Vuc causing 2 TOs because he just doesn't care is inexcusable. And offense is why he's even on the floor.

Just let him walk. I would rather have the cap space.

Talking about the rotation. Both were watching on 3 straight plays.

Giddey still making his 3s and shooting with confidence, great to see. Hopefully it keeps up.

The starting lineup sucks. Vuc is a problem, preseason or not.
