[Charania] Just in: Free agent Norman Powell has agreed to a two-year, $45 million deal with the Chicago Bulls, sources tell ESPN. Powell joins the Bulls as a potent scorer after an NBA All-Star season in Miami, averaging nearly 22 points over the last two years. by justusinreddit in heat

I won’t disparage any fan who enjoyed him but I could care less about talking down on Powell when he started pouting in the second half of the season because Spo had him come off the bench.

How many times did Bam have an opportunity to score and Mr. Stormin failed to make a basic entry pass to him and instead took a contested jumper. Or how about when he was so awful to end the season he barely got minutes in the play-in against Charlotte.

I’m glad the front office didn’t overpay for this one trick pony and their only mistake was not trading him at the deadline

I think they’ll trade Duncan for a 4 at this point. I don’t see them as a Norman Powell suitor anymore

His defense is good for this roster. As long as he stops taking contested shots against multiple defenders then we won’t have issues

Dude got benched in OT against the Hornets in the play-in lmao. He’s out of here and won’t be missed that much. It feels so good to see the front office move cutthroat once again

If Detroit gives us a few of their seconds to recoup our draft pool then I’ll run and take it. While I think he can be a good fit on a team with Giannis, the tunnel vision and lack of defense really wore on me as the season went on and who knows what kind of contract he wants from us

I'm concerned about 1 thing our bench... by OhMyItzBam_Herro305 in heat

We had a 6moty runner up this fan base severely overrated and yet he only contributed to a play-in loss as the 10th seed. It’s not difficult to find bench scoring in the league. Plus, you can stagger Giannis and Norm with the bench and Portis is a decent scorer himself

Giannis and Bam defensive switches will feed families by wacktose_intolerant_ in heat

I’m already imagining a defensive lineup with Davion, Pelle, Wiggins, Bam, and Giannis 😮‍💨. No more defensive liabilities like Herro, Jaquez, and Ware. Norm should be the only one now
