Kon is so darn good.
30 piece. He’s CHA’s best player already. By a wide margin.

Re: Around The NBA : 2025-26
I never wanted Noa, actually liked Newell and Sorber. I still don't really want and like Noa, he seems so far way from being 2 years away, it is not funny. He is not even good enough for a few mpg.Chi town wrote:WesPeace wrote:Cedric Coward again best player for Memphis in a win over Dallas. Maaan! He would be such a perfect fit here from day 1,but ..

Asa Newell and NOP pick sounds awesome right now.

I wanted Asa but I am content if dumars didn’t offer use what he gave Atlanta. Hawks screwed NO twice now

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.
NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

Coward went before Noa, so we'll never know. It's also less than 10 games into their careers.

Kon scorred 30 points last night. He's surprised me so far.

Trenton Watford with 20pts, 17rbs, 10asts for the 76ers.

Kon is what Doug McDermott was supposed to be.

Crazy stat line.
I looked at the box scores today and see that Asa Newell had 17 points, 5 rebounds and 4 steals. I haven't watched him play so I don't know how he's been overall, but I'm curious because of the New Orleans trade (or no trade in the Bulls case).

He was available last year I think as FA, many of us wanted him, but AKME was ignorant..

Doug is also why Bulls fans weren't much interested in Kon. Once burned, twice shy.

Not really close on upside.
Kon was a freshman. Doug was a Senior.
Kon was doing his thing in the ACC against the best competition. Doug was at Creighton before they joined the Big East and playing in the MVC against teams like Wichita State.
There was also a tweener problem, Doug did a lot of posting up in college and he couldn't be a PF in the league. Kon was keeping the same role from NCAA to NBA.
