The Bulls have to feel the pressure after teams like Charlotte, Atlanta, and New York all made jumps last season.

What's going on with Coby White? Is he no longer part of the Bulls future?

He's injured his shoulder at the start of the off-season. He's a quality scorer but struggling as a PG ball-handler. He might still grow to ball-handler but his floor is 6th man microwave scorer off the bench.

Like a Jordan Clarkson type, gotcha. What's the thought process if you guys sign Lonzo? Compete for the playoffs?

The Bulls traded for all-star Nikola Vucevic (C) late last year. I believe that move signals they want to compete. They've still got some major holes to fill & roster flux though.

Coby is not a garbage player. You need to watch more Bulls games I guess. He is not a starting level PG as he doesn't have good handles and when pressured, turns the ball over too much for my liking but he is a pretty good catch and shoot 3pt shooter and a pretty good scorer - can give you 25-30 on any given night. He is best suited to be coming off the bench like Clarkson and Rose now-a-days.
