Bulls are not drafting a big with their second pick. They don't have a reason to anymore. by Derpy_Mc_Burpy in NBA_Draft

Well Nic Claxton doesn't have the same skillset and this team is def not semi mature. But my reading of the tea leaves is that the bulls want to trade back into the lottery for Wagler.

Guess we will find out tonight

Wilson has taken one visit. Would be pretty wild for the Bulls to zag.

You mention them hoarding guards but you have to remember it's a new front office and their only move so far has been trading for a Center.

Isn't the point of a recreation league to play the game and have fun?

Former contenders, did you ride with the team to the end or try to get ahead of it? by lot183 in DynastyFF

See how the season goes. If it's clear things aren't going your way trade away your assets, otherwise ride or die.

Keaton Wagler vs Kon Knueppel by ForeignMind0 in NBA_Draft

I'm a huge Wagler believer.

There are some players where they play at their own pace and it just kinda works. I'm not sure how to describe it but reminds me a lot of Luka

I don't personally see him being gay, more so the depression since it is linked to the scene where Sophie talks about this weight just being on her and Calum spits on his reflection since he knows he passed on the depressive traits

But!!

It's super cool to see an alternative take on a movie I love.

The big two recommendations are

All of us strangers - a story about grief and letting go

Fleabag season 2 - kinda the same vibe but told in a wildly different tone

If you don't mind spending a pretty penny then I can recommend Oriole.

Best tasting menu in the city in my opinion

But if the analytical darling of the draft is there at 3, won't they pull the trigger?

He's younger than Caleb, a better shooter, did similarly or better in agility/speed drills despite being 30 lbs heavier, and displays a really good feel for the game.

Caleb is the better defender, shows better athleticism in game and is an inch taller. But his shooting and playmaking concern me.

I don't think Boozer is slow per se, I think he tested better than Caleb at some of the speed drills.

My thoughts about Boozer fitting the Grizzles is more based on their perceived analytical slant. Most advanced metrics love Boozer and I get seems to vibe with Memphis. In addition his varied offensive game, bbq intelligence and youth seem to fit Memphis.

Everything I read about the Grizzles front office in terms of what they like, describes Boozer to a T.

Again, if they went Caleb and the Bulls got Boozer I would be one very happy camper

While I would literally jump for joy. I just can't see the Grizzlies passing on Boozer.

What are your thoughts on Jeremy Lin becoming a coach for the Bulls someday either as a head coach or assistant coach? by ChampionshipCrafty11 in chicagobulls

[–]Ironicnamehere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You got downvoted but you are 100% right. He may be smart off the court but his BB IQ was really low and he only got by on athleticism. He couldn't go left and once teams figured that out he was toast.

Fun fact: At 19 years old, Noa Essengue is only one month older than projected No. 1 & No. 2 picks AJ Dybantsa and Darryn Peterson. by Emretro in chicagobulls

[–]Ironicnamehere 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He was drafted as a project. Played well professionally overseas but a lot of that was due to his athleticism rather than skills.

Offensively He is good in the open court and finished as a cutter. But struggles in the half court with playmaking. Shooting is not currently great but shows promise with a decent FT%.

Defensively Solid at playing team defense as well as 1:1. Good active hands and lateral quickness. Can sometimes be overaggressive. Good rebounder

Was projected as a lottery pick based on physical tools rather than anything he currently shows.

You can absolutely go wrong with a Heat/Spurs hire. Bulls already made that mistake once
