I'll be paying attention to the pro tankers who don't show up when the Bulls struggle to win 20 games.

Sorry to break it to you, but Dunn can't shoot.


Dammit! Just let me delude myself right now.

Why did they give up the #16? :lol:

Thibs is not only a better coach than Fred, he's also a better GM than GarPax.

This is on par with a Chicago Bears move.

Lopez plus Grant might be able to get something decent

Or will they be like 7 pages long, because in reality, few people care to watch a garbage team.


Tough call. But I'll take door #2.

Don't know if the Bulls will land the #1 next year. Time to ship out guys like Lopez and Wade for... whatever. Let Cam Payne play 40 mpg so we get the #1 pick guaranteed.

I could give a **** about 16. That would have projected as a third string guy for us with all the mediocre quantity of youth we have now.

I'm enraged at the return

When does he even come back? And will he be the same player pre ACL?

That's great but irrelevant now.
