Low? Guy was utter garbage in Bulls uniform. Almost great as Stacey King.
uh...that's what selling low means. getting the least return because the player is at his lowest value when dealt
selling high, for example, is sam hinkie trading reigning ROY michael carter williams at the trade deadline in his 2nd season because he has regressed, getting a 1st rounder in exchange

it happens. who knows if he doesn't get traded maybe the spark that led him to actually work his ass off this offseason never fires and he just continued to be a mediocre player. happy to be 13-7 and happy that Carter Jr has found some good form.
thats what happened with Oladipo for us. really blossomed efficiently after being traded. (that was dumb trade for us though)
Enjoy Franz. He's such an easy player to root for. Michigan is really missing him right now.

Wagner is way better than I gave him credit for. I have always been an Ann Arbor is a whore guy though lol. I’m eating me crow kid looks really solid. He can ball and will get better. He is one of those position less players too. Great footwork.

just seems to play smart. better than some people thought after his summer league play.

We did not! Sorry I have irrational WCJ hate but no we did not. Paid too much for Vuc yeah we did but that facilitated other good moves. WCJ was going to be nothing in Chicago. He might be great in a non winning team but he was never leading the bulls to the promised land and he was never attracting other players. Lol I hope the best for him but I was never a WCJ fan.

Wagner and WCJ isn't making this team better because the Bulls don't have the off season they did if the Vuc trade didn't happen. Idgaf about Carter, he was not doing what he is doing now in Chicago, though It helps when he has no pressure on him. The trade for Orlando was about long term clearly, the trade for Chicago was for both the short and long term. Help win now and change the culture, which hopefully attracts future stars(Hi Jokic).
Chicago-Bull-E wrote:Bulls were +12 in the 3rd today after being -17 against Houston. Billy probably made that a point of emphasis, and the team was great defensively in that quarter, especially Ball.
Steals typically aren’t an interesting stat, but the Bulls were +7. That means though that stat some they took away 7 possessions from Orlando, which is enormous.
Ball is great when he’s this aggressive defensively.
I hate Coby, but this was his best game. Looked comfortable on offense, had some mini moments of shot creation for himself and others. Didn’t try to do too much which gets him in trouble.
Wendell looked great. That trade isn’t looking good as Wagner looks great too and would be perfect at the 4 for this team.
Demar got his shooting touch back, which is critical.
If they can win tomorrow, all of a sudden the garbage basketball from earlier in the week will be out of people’s minds.

coby was great, not good. if this is what he's been working on before the injury then wendell isnt the only player who looks totally different. and i know he's under performed as a rookie and the little he did play this season but patrick williams is still on the roster. he still can play. im more afraid of him then vuc.
vuc is out of shape and legs need to be up to standard but im sure he will get there within a month. patrick williams now needs to come back a new man. I feel like he will be back earlier than said. they just said season ending injury to keep bulls fans from checking his status every single hour i bet the more this team wins he will start to open up about it more.
im beginning to put confidence in ayo. he's slowed down on the shot attempts and wild plays. making the extra pass. that was his problem so far. coby looked like a new player. i was suprised he didnt try to do to much. his defense was just as good as lonzo today. i would like to see him continue to do this for a string of games before i give him to much credit.

WCJ played a good game tonight but I wouldn’t let it fool anyone. His per 36 numbers this year are pretty much consistent with his Bull years. The only difference is that he seems to have found a 3 point stroke. Other than that he hasn’t changed his game at all and he’ll go on to have a long long career as a bottom 10 starting centre. Throughly mediocre.

Exactly. He’s a #1 option w Anthony out.

Yeah it was such a talented draft and he and well Barnes were kinda overlooked. He isn’t a 1a but who is at that position really? Suggs looked like a 1a in college and you got him too. Hell my hated WCJ and or Bamba plus Isaac makes that a team to grow if they don’t blow it all up. Orlando has always known how to get the beat out of big men that’s for sure.

I surely hope so. I'm excited to see this whole team in sync.
G Ball / Caruso / Ayo
G Lavine / White / Ayo
F DeRozan / Green
F Jones Jr. / Green
C Vucevic / Bradley / Jones Jr.
Trade deadline is feb 10th, 2022
13-7, 2nd in the east. We're in good shape. Having assets like DJJ (expiring), Coby (two months to showcase), Javonte, Brown, TBJ, Bradley, draft picks etc. could put us in position to get to a conference finals this season. I like Miami, BKN & Milwaukee as much as the next fan but you never know what could happen. Go for it AKME
