    If you are running the front office are you bringing back Valentine next year? He's been a total failure of a pick. He and Dunn both have 5m club options

    That’s funny because I just spent the last 10 minutes looking at FA’s after next year, thinking they’d be the easiest to trade for...yeah I got nothing.

    Yeah I hadn't seen any rumors on PG deals... But that doesn't mean something can't happen.

    The more I watch White the more i'm ok with taking him if Ja and Zion are out of reach. Kid is 6'5 has a good shot, nice vision and is only improving at PG.

    Maybe a sign and trade would work for an upcoming FA but I’ve also got nothing for that. Maybe we can sign a guy like Rubio or Collison and then draft BPA at 4.

    Even if you go this route... I don't think outside of Zion you are drafting anyone at 4 that will replace a starter on this roster.

    I think we draft best PG at 4 and exercise the club option on Dunn to be the backup. Hell i'm almost higher on Acri as the bPG but I don't think they would let Dunn walk without one more season to take a look at.

    Can't wait for Gar and Pax's incompetence to be rewarded tonight when the Bulls get the 1st pick.

    This ownership doesn't deserve success.

    I hope the fan base turns on it and stops packing the united center.

    Those have to be ticket sales, not attendance. I went to 5 or 6 games last year, and the place was maybe half full towards the end.

    However, to your point - ticket sales matter more than attendance.

    The NBA gods gave us Rose and have decided we wasted that gift and thus told our ownership to fuck off

    Bulls are going to make the mistake of drafting Garland over White and double down on that by giving Patrick Beverley a stupid contract in a effort to land the 7th seed

    James Wiseman - 7'1 center going to play at Memphis
    RJ Hampton - 6'5 combo guard
    Anthony Edwards - 6'5 shooting guard
    Cole Anthony - 6'2 point guard
    Kahlil Whitney - 6'7 small forward

    Probably the top 5 prospects at this point

    For emotional reasons... sure.

    To be a six than off the bench... sure

    But the Bulls need a starting PG and a very good one at that. He's just not that.

    7th
    2020 unprotected 1st
    Kris Dunn

    For

    2nd pick ( Ja Morant)

    Seen this floated and would absolutely love it.

    Similar to what Dallas did last year

    I’m not entirely sold of Ja. I do believe he’s probably the second best prospect in the class but I’m not sure there is a huge difference between he and some of the other PGs like White and Garland.

    With that said I rather roll the dice on White/Garland vs taking a broken down vet

    I really like upside of Ja, he rebounds really well for a PG. then he is not a slouch on defense, very active on both ends of the court.

    for a slashing PG he's needs to bulk up. He's pretty skinny. He's a tough kid I wont deny that. He's not afraid to get in the action. This class as a whole has a lot of question marks outside of Zion

    On pace to give up 150 points, we’re in mid season “defense is optional” form...

    Guys this is the NBA. They don't play defense till the final 5 minutes of the 4th quarter. Relax
