New Bad Boy Bobby Portis?

[tmorgan]

I'd rather have a nutball (Portis) than a wuss like Mirotic, but I don't think we'd consider bringing in either right now. We're clearly just fine without Leuer playing, so as long as Stanley is back soon, we don't have any real holes to fill except a quality backup center, and Moreland is doing OK there, too.

Who is the better PF prospect, Bobby Portis or Henry Ellenson? Maybe we could swap.

How is attacking one of your own teammates ANYTHING like the Bad Boys? They were a tight team that loved and stood up for one another. Portis isn't a high character person by any measure.

You did hear about some of the behind the scenes stuff, didn't you? Isiah punched Laimbeer once for sure, and I'd be shocked if Rick Mahorn didn't rough some guys up on purpose in practice to prove a point. Unified on the floor, yes, but just like Portis/Mirotic, some crazy stuff definitely happened in practice.

Both of our backup centers Moreland and Boban are solid.

Depth at SF would help but our bench is performing wonderfully.

Crazy eyes? Who might he punch on our team?

We just talked to your boss and he said you are going to work closely with Biff. Dude is a bit rough around the edges. He is very arrogant and rubbs people the wrong way. Likewise, he is a loudmouth who likes to tell you when you are wrong, but will rarely admit he done wrong. He farts alot and thinks it is funny when you take offense to his shenanigans.

But, the good thing is, by putting you with him to work closely together, your office team will have better potential to excel and make the company some more money. You and your other co-workers will just have to suck it up and take one for the team!

For what it's worth, it sounds like the Bulls teammates are backing Portis. From what I've heard/read, it sounds like Mirotic came into camp with a terrible attitude, acting like everyone on the team was below him, while Portis worked his butt off to improve all offseason. Basically Portis threw the punch the entire rest of the team had been wanting to throw.

So you're using rumor, and straight up blind guessing to support your opinion?

Rumor? Don't be a fool.

Port is is another stretch PF that would work perfectly here and as a matter if fact his offensive game is complete. Back to the basket, three point shot, and he's a passer. A version of Rasheed. Defensivly he would fit perfectly as well as he's a shotblocker and moves his feet well.

Absolutely perfect fit.

Alas, he's **** crazy so it would be a big gamble. The starting 5(as he should start)would be;

Jackson
Bradley
Harris
Portis
Drummond

That's a killer, and versatile as hell lineup.

Yooooo long time I haven't seen you post mannnnn. Love the Sheed comment. Yoooo I remember Stuckey in his rookie season, that was a horrible era. Look where we are now!! #2 in the East! Damnnnnn
