Talk about how AK will further dig the franchise into an inescapable hole and how the franchise needs to be burned to the ground /s

I’m hoping they can find a reasonable deal for Coby. I’d send Ayo packing without thinking twice. Coby should have got like half of Ayo’s minutes. Love Ayo, but yeah…he’s a huge negative out there

Trade future first round picks for a player who can't shoot threes
Be careful, some here REALLY REALLY LOVED that acquisition despite being told the non 3 point shooting would hurt

Y'all think Ime Udoka coaches Boston next season?

Should've hired him first go round, and should make a run at him now.

I admit I liked the trade at the time just because they actually did something. I am scared from years of GarPax inaction.

Pretty sure Udoka is done with Boston. I think they named Mazzulla their official head coach and not just interim head coach.

In a perfect world, Ime would be coaching the Bulls next season, (Actually in a perfect world those accusations are never made against Adrian Griffin and he's going into year 3 as HC) but since we are fans of a Chicago franchise we're not allowed to have nice things. So we'll have Billy D for at least another season. Which is fine, he's a good coach. I don't happen to think he's an NBA championship coach.

I don't think there is anyone currently on the roster, Medium-3 included, that is going to bring back the draft capital that you desperately need. So light a candle, say a prayer, sacrifice a goat, or whatever it is that you do and maybe the Bulls hit that 8% chance.

tl;dr: The word of the offseason is: "bleak."

LaVine should study Jimmy Butler this offseason. I watched a piece of the Miami/Bucks game and Jimmy fully orchestrated a run. It was like 5 consecutive plays where he was involved in some way. I'd like to see Zach have that level of impact.

Generally speaking, Zach needs to improve his decision making in those kinds of situations. Obviously there's no issue him getting involved, it's what he does in those situations. We're just as likely to see him take a bad shot or turn the ball as we are seeing him involved in a score. Arguably more likely to see the negative outcome, especially if his shot is not on that day.

Zach had his lowest turnover season as a bull this season. 2.5 turnovers a game isn’t some atrocious westbrookien level for his usage as people here like to make it out to be

Houston hired him.

We're stuck with mediocre Billy.

Blazers shopping the #3 pick. Bulls should happily trade Demar for the #3

Worth a try but i think they are hoping to land Siakam or similar with #3.

For sure. That said, siakam would take more than just #3. There would be more first rounders attached to it, gotta imagine
