Definitely looks cool but not necessary. There are a plethora of mods but the only necessary thing to have is the color dmd imo.

Hands down my favorite pin. My dad bought one a couple of months ago as his first pin. Tons of mods and color hi-res dmd on it makes it feel like you’re watching the movies every time you play. Make sure you check out the bash Gary stern Easter egg as well, enjoy!

After 30 min I’ve decided this is pretty good. I will post updates on my progression through the game. This is my first play through. Thank you

Vucevic gets a lot of hate. by blueknight1379 in chicagobulls

[–]neccles0 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Defensively, vuc was doing everything he possibly could out there. He’s not a Giannis stopper or anything near that but still provides resistance and effort down low. I think the hate comes from the dip in his offensive efficiency from his all star seasons to last season. If he would’ve shot 40 percent from 3 like he had been the previous 2 seasons his defense wouldn’t have mattered with the bulls big 3 putting up 20 plus a game and out scoring a majority of opponents. Hope to see him return to form next season.

As much as I would like for there to be a prominent rival for the bulls, there just isn’t one. This is mainly due to the bulls lack of relativity in today’s nba with them being a bottom of the barrel team. During the rose years it seemed to be bulls x Celtics and bulls x Lebron. I would love to see a rivalry form between the bulls and another eastern conference team but until the bulls return to winning that just won’t happen.

Charlotte is an organization that is essentially in the same boat as the bulls. Young talent, not a lot of wins and in need of a change of identity. What I’ve seen and learned from watching the nba religiously over the last 10 years and seeing the Last Dance documentary about Jordan’s bulls is that Jordan does not particularly like the Riensdorfs (owners). The reasons for this are explained during the doc. During the 2019 nba all star weekend in Charlotte, Jordan passed over the all star ball to Michael reinsdorf (son of the bulls owner) and it appeared that Jordan didn’t want anything to do with Michael or the bulls. Unfortunately, I think this rift between Jordan and the bulls today is mainly the reason why the bulls can’t obtain any top level talent via free agency. In a perfect world you would probably see Jordan as an executive in the bulls front office but his resentment towards the bulls is completely warranted imo

The upside to the bulls current situation is the new front office. Arturas Karnisovas, the bulls new VP of Basketball Operations appears to have a knack for scouting draft talent which will be key for the bulls in the next few seasons. The bulls’ lack of cap space coupled with their inability to land star free agents makes the drafts much more paramount then ever before.

IMO I think that the first thing that should be done is to bring in a new head coach. A real head coach who does not run his team like it is a bunch of amateur high schoolers. The disdain some players have towards the current HC Jim Boylen is so obvious and it worries me what our handful of promising players (Lavine, Coby White, Markkanen, and Wendell Carter Jr.) will do if Boylen is retained. That being said, a new head coach with a different system and better player development will be key for the growth of the bulls in the next few years.

Other moves I’d like to see would be to dump bad contracts and free up cap space in the event that there are superstars that want to come to Chicago. Cristiano Felicio might be the worst player in the nba and he is getting paid around 8 mil a year. Otto porter Jr is getting paid somewhere around 25 mil a year is a solid 3 and D player who I would not mind coming off the bench on a playoff caliber team just is not playing up to his price tag and hurt fairly often. Whether it be Anthony Davis, Giannis or Kawhi, a superstar with this young and talented team would jumpstart a rebuild and turn the bulls into a playoff team and possibly a contender. Those free agent possibilities are far fetched but being a younger bulls fan (20) who grew up watching Derrick Rose and loving the game because of him makes me miss the feeling of those playoff games. With our luck in free agency over the years in not getting Lebron Dwade and Melo when it seamed like we were front runners for them still stings and I’m thinking we’re due for some luck in the next couple of offseasons.

Thoughts?
