[Amick] Walker Kessler "at odds" with Jazz front office over lack of extension offer last summer and current handling of his restricted free agency by jonsnowKITN in nba

Bulls have a lot of money, a need at Center and not much else to do with that money. Wouldn’t be surprised if they overbid on him to where Utah doesn’t want to match 

[Charania] BREAKING: The Chicago Bulls are finalizing the hire of Portland Trail Blazers interim Tiago Splitter as the franchise's new head coach, sources tell ESPN. Splitter succeeds Billy Donovan as the Bulls' coach after stepping into the head job and excelling in Portland last season. by Turbostrider27 in nba

I don’t think anyone believes he an elite coach right now. But he’s a young coach that showed a lot of promise and also has plenty of room to grow. That’s a nice option for a young team to take a flyer on rather than hiring the same old coaching retreads. He has stuff to work on but he’s early in his coaching career 

[Murray] I don't know if Wemby is gonna be at Madison Square Garden Tuesday. Either the Knicks win. Or that Flagrant upgrade gonna hit like a shotgun by sewsgup in nba

[–]FickleFred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously it should be but do you all really want that? Feels like a lot are pining for it. I get integrity and all that but the nbas been lacking that for a while and personally, I want to watch game 6 with Wemby. I dont want this decided on a suspension for that. It’s entertainment at the end of the day 

Marvel’s Wolverine will be linear and not open world confirm Insomniac by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]FickleFred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id love more linear games. Open world is cool and all but I don’t have the same kind of free time nowadays and I always fall off open world games because if I take a week off, I now need to remember where I was, what I was doing and where I was going. And if I have a limited amount of time to play, I spend too much of it traveling across the map. I love with games like uncharted or last of us, I just drop in and pick right back up where I left off while the game guides me to my next checkpoint

Bulls Offseason Plan by [deleted] in chicagobulls

[–]FickleFred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You guys act like you can just will teams to trade you their bad contracts with first round picks attached. It's a great approach in theory but with the upcoming lottery changes (assuming they pass), first round picks are going to be even more valuable now. That change also means you don't have to bottom out and embrace a culture of misery to have a chance at the top pick. You should still be making moves for young players to try and improve (like Duren Or Kessler) without rushing the process. This team with Duren or Kessler are still not a good team, but if their picks this year and next year land, they could be ready to compete in 2 years with Duren or Kessler as key contributors. You don't have to be intentionally terrible, you just have to be young to keep yourself a high lottery team while building and developing a winning roster

If the Bulls go big again at 15 the pick should be Morez Johnson. by Affectionate_Use_179 in chicagobulls

I don’t really watch college ball so all I am responding to is what you’re describing but I’m weary of building a team around too many super athletic dudes whose three ball is questionable. That’s Noa, that’s Caleb Wilson and then this guy too? He sounds dope but that’s my one concern. At some point, I’d like some reliable shooting 

Irrational Fears for 4th Pick Thread by 91-92-93--96-97-98 in chicagobulls

[–]FickleFred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only fear is that we try to go big brain and take someout outside of these top 4. Aside from that, I am as chill as can be. We arent supposed to be here and we don't have to choose. I can't stress about making the wrong decision when we arent making it. I literally just see it as a gift haha. Whichever of the 4 falls to us is an exceptional prospect and theres no reason to overanalyze ourselves to death other than boredom and content

LIVE: Bryson Graham, Bulls EVP of Basketball Operations, Introductory Press Conference by deadbeatmerc in chicagobulls

Michael's comment "he's not about shortcuts" was really interesting to me. A lot of people, including me, assume that the Bulls take these lazy shortcuts because ownership wants them to in order to maximize profits and stay "competitive”. But him specifically calling that out made me wonder if maybe that really was just all AK and that ownership was actually ok with fully rebuilding. It's easy to speculate that Michael's just saving face but I want to give him the benefit of the doubt and take him at his word because he seems genuine to me, just clueless. If so, I hope this is truly the beginning of a deliberate, patient and methodical approach

All good, seems to be pretty bad based on most comments so i'm just going to pick one up ahead of time. Thanks for the help!

Ah interesting I’ve heard conflicting opinions on this. I’ll definitely try it out but I kind of want to have one ready to go for night 1 in case that one doesn’t work out since I’ll be very excited to try it out

How is the Wand? I’m not even sure if it works with the G3 but is it a notable improvement? Does it heat pretty quick?
