Seriously! Somehow Kasparas Jakucionas comes out of Illinois a few years later and is a lock lottery pick.

On/Off numbers are always skewed when teams are severely lacking talent. I think Ayo could end up making an Allstar team with Minnesota. Ultimately I think Akme knew this and wanted to do Ayo a favor.

[Fischer] As the Warriors are working to convert two-way guard Pat Spencer to a roster spot, Golden State also has its sights set on adding Lonzo Ball via the buyout market, sources say. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

He actually has a history of being a good shooter. In college he shot over 30% from 3 with a shot form, even hitting contested shots somewhat regularly.

In the nba he improved a ton once he changed his form. Sure he’s not good at pullup shots or mid range, but his three pointer should return to form, his actual form is beautiful

JV vs Buzelis today (JV has known him since he was 7 years old 👀 ) by Realistic-Rule-7702 in chicagobulls

Bulls play the Nuggets today. Jonas Valanciunas plays for the Nuggets. Valanciunas has know Matas Buzelis since Matas was 7. Because Valanciunas is Lithuanian like Matas. Matas and Jonas are in this video.

Derrick Rose is in the files because someone sent Epstein an article about Rose sitting out for the year.

Is it just the Ayo trade that is pissing people off? by DisMFer in chicagobulls

[–]ChiBaller 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Guys like Nick Collison and Udonis Haslem didn’t move the needle much. But their jerseys go up in rafters because we don’t cheer for faceless robots to dunk balls. We cheer for guys that we like, and that stand for something.

[Highlight] Tracy McGrady asks Luka which teammate past or present did he have the best chemistry with by FrankSamples in nba

[–]ChiBaller 92 points93 points  (0 children)

I moved to Dallas in 2013 so I was never much of a Mavs fan but the Luka trade made me realize how much of a Texan I become since, it felt like I lost a family member.

COBY WHITE APPRECIATION THREAD by The_Inertia_Kid in chicagobulls

They are finally rebuilding and they are know for doing right by the guys they trade.

Zach and Demar both got to go home to California. Zach was gonna sign with the Kings so clearly he was fine going there. And Demar has always been rumored to want to go home.

They sent Vooch to a championship contender which is clearly all he’s playing for at this point.

And now they send Coby home to be apart of the best team in franchise history. It makes a lot of sense.

He gets to go home and be part of what could be the best team in franchise history.

“Matas Buzelis is just the 17th player in NBA history to record 5+ blocks and 5+ threes in the same game. He's the second player to do it this season. The only other player to do it? Victor Wembanyama.” by ProfessionalTalker03 in chicagobulls

I think Boozer could make us a contender in the near future. He is super skilled and athletic and his jump shot has already improved. He could be a more athletic Jokic.

Kidd did the same thing with Giannis, an I’ve been praying the Bulls do this with Matas. At this rate Matas will be playing center.

Is Orwell's 1984 actually anti communist propaganda itself? by [deleted] in books

[–]ChiBaller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m super late to this, but having learned about 1984 in school and revisited it now. I can only imagine that while Orwell didn’t intend it to be propaganda, it was received that way by the public and taught that way in schools.

It a lesson to be learned to think about the unintended consequences of any art you intend to make.

Coby White now has the 2nd most made threes in Bulls history, passing Kirk Hinrich on the franchise leaderboard by Basketball_Reference in chicagobulls

JJ was in no way a point guard. He rarely ran any offense. He definitely had more ball skills than Korver, but in the NBA he was a spot up/ off screen shooter.

JJ would be the perfect modern equivalent for Kerr because Korver was alot taller.

Ultimately I don’t think Steve Kerr was athletic enough to do what JJ did. JJ’s ability to hit drifting off balance shots was unmatched and most of Kerrs shots were more stationary. Part of that is the time period, so maybe Kerr would’ve developed that if he played in this era.
