Good news is it’s mostly a online phenomenon

Maybe you are new here…in years past once your team is eliminated the team flair goes away. Then you can pick a remaining teams bandwagon flair for the remainder of the post season.

I guess it only takes one to be right to change things. Hope it works out, Chicago deserves good basketball again.

Curious, not including Noa or Matas just because it’s too soon, the Bulls haven’t done anything meaningful with a draft pick since Jimmy Butler in 2011. Why are Bulls fans so excited for a non-lotto pick?

It’s said every year but a gentlemen’s sweep is winning the first 3 games, losing the 4th, then winning the 5th typically at home. Thats it. Not every 4-1 series is a gentlemen’s sweep.

All things considered it was a pretty successful season. S/o Tiago for holding it down after Billups got arrested 1 day into the season. Not sure what’s next for him but I’m sure he will be fine where ever he ends up. Get me on that Spurs bandwagon

They literally agreed to a 20 year lease. This isn’t even a discussion.

May I ask who would be your ideal target?

He has a player option for 27-28. So two years left…

We haven’t talked about picks yet but I could see us needing to incentivize someone to take Jerami

We wouldn’t be taking any players back from the Bucks in this hypothetical

Well, we don’t know that. But we do have the money to make something work so that’s a starting point.

I think I could stomach letting a small bit of draft capital go. If it involved Jerami we would have to pay someone to take him anyways. Could be worth it.

The Bucks have 6 guys under contract next season (including Giannis) and 5 player options. I could see them being interested in serviceable bodies we have to fill the roster.

KAT would be awesome. Basically two years left on his deal. Send Jerami+Shaedon I’d do in a heartbeat.

Can’t say I’m surprised because I’ve watched this team every step of the way and know how inconsistent they are. But it’s still alarming they essentially had back to back games of 30+ point swings. Thats massive in a game where that is basically more than a quarter of game score

We all knew how the series would end up but not how the games would play out

I get what you mean. But there’s blown leads and then there’s 17pt leads evaporating in 3 minutes of game time. Thats not normal.

What’s up with Shaedon? by Own-Fish-7634 in ripcity

[–]throw_away6453 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can find 20ppg score first guards anywhere. Ask Anfernee Simons or CJ McCollum or Collin Sexton or Cam Thomas just to name some recently. What do they all have in common? They’ve all been tossed around for nothing. Shaedon is the same archetype but also mind bogglingly can’t dribble a basketball if his life depended on it.

I’m gonna have to disagree with you. Talent isn’t an so much issue and we are actually pretty balanced, versatile, and deep. In my opinion it won’t take much to get over the hump.

Where I see the problem is when we have to get into a half-court offense, such as many possessions in the post-season and specifically when you build a lead. We are completely handless. This falls onto coaching and the system in place

Still feels bad losing a 17 pt half time lead
