Looks really smooth out there. Not forcing much, but picking his spots and making plays.

Pretty good. Nice passes, surprisingly good on defense. A few selfish shots but he fits in real well with the team.


Gonna be watching a lot of bulls games this year. Hopefully Thomas and Stanley make the team as well.


Lol i totally forgot about the other Johnson

I say it without any malicious intent, but driving on Lauri is the easiest 2pts I've ever seen in the paint. I seriously hope this isn't the reason we won by 40 tonight. I think Matt Thomas should take a stab at driving on the switch.

I had some second thoughts about Lauri, thought he would've made a good $12-14m bench shooter... but this is a great reminder that he is indeed dead money. Guy should've gotten $6m - seriously. He doesn't belong in the NBA, he's a Euro star cause no NBA defense can cover his ground. Maybe if they play him with Rubio/Okoro/Allen it'll work out, but he's a problem in the paint.

He’s probably feeling rejuvenated knowing he no longer needs to carry Lebron..

Ayo playing well.

Depth looking like it may not be as bad as previously thought.

If we can trade a few pieces for a real solid big on the bench, I'd be really happy.

Ha! Everyone is hyped. This team believes in itself and they have seen the rankings. Looks like they might play this season with a chip on their shoulder.

And so do his players. We got some dogs on this team. Good model. Pax used to value mental toughness.
