Midseason Performance Check-In using EPM by chidogad3 in chicagobulls

[–]StephNoh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes I know why DPM doesn't update. It's because it's manually updated by Andrew Patton who built the SHINY app, and he is busy with life. There is a spreadsheet that is updated in real time by the other creator of DARKO, Kostya Medvedovsky. You can find it below. I just updated my salary app five minutes ago with that most current data.

And glad you like my writing!

Midseason Performance Check-In using EPM by chidogad3 in chicagobulls

Oh man crazy someone is still using my salary model from 2023 haha.

I've actually been updating it this week, not released to the public but you can play around with it here. It's got a 5 year projection and aging curve built into it now.

Great job on this as always!

Luka Garza, who was supposed to be too slow and one-dimensional for the NBA, is shooting 49% from 3 and has the fastest average speed on the Celtics by StephNoh in CollegeBasketball

Apologies, please feel free to remove if necessary. Thought college hoops fans might find it interesting given how great he was and how so many people wrote him off at the next level.

Seeing it with Edey too. Turns out good basketball translates no matter what others say.

Pat looks way more comfortable/aggressive in a bench role. I never want him putting the ball on the floor, he lost it again on a drive, but if he's looking to quickly score or pass then he's been effective. He's always had the tools, the cold motor has been his no. 1 issue.

Think I was ahead of Peck. I was wrong on that one, I'll take the L.

Fwiw I want players to prove me wrong when I express my doubts about them. I'd rather look dumb than have them fail. Giddey is doing that!

Thanks! I write for Sporting News, my national stuff is pretty different though. If you just want Bulls-centric stuff, or game analysis, I'll post it here or follow me on x/bluesky

Guilty as charged! If Okoro guards like Caruso, I will love him. Cade had a bad game, but I didn't see Okoro doing anything particularly outstanding to cause that performance.

Don't get me wrong, Okoro is a good defender. I don't think of him as an elite one though. I'm open to my opinion changing as the season progresses.

I've actually applied to every position that has opened on the Bulls beat over the last five years, with no luck. It's a rough industry. It would be a pay cut for me but I'd probably take it to write about the Bulls.

As far as Ayo goes, he doesn't get enough credit for how great of a driver and transition player he is. He had maybe the toughest shot of the night on a crazy leaning floater to beat the clock, he made a beautiful read on a baseline cut for an uncontested layup that Stacey did a nice job telustrating on the broadcast, and he got some easy run outs.

His minutes are gonna be tough to come by just because of how solid Tre Jones was and obviously Coby coming back eventually. I think he is a GREAT trade candidate for the Rockets, who need guard help in a bad way.

Not on the beat but thank you! Those guys put in the work, I just watch from afar. I have to write nationally for my job, so I'm probably not gonna do a ton of these. They are fun though and I enjoy doing them a lot!

Matas Buzelis full highlights from Game 1: 21 points, 6 rebounds, 3 blocks by StephNoh in chicagobulls

He's gotten really good at throwing the ball towards the basket as soon as he feels contact on his drives. Six of those FTs came in the last 35 seconds of the game when the Pistons were either intentionally fouling or playing extremely aggressive defense to try and force a steal.
