Draymond is having just as good of a season as last year, if not better.

If you had to remove one Warrior, it should be Thompson.

Butler is 9th in the NBA in FTA per game, and was 2nd in the NBA in FTA per game in January, to Giannis.

Butler got to the line 9 times per game in January. And his FTA per game has gone up each month this season.

The report of his death was an exaggeration.

Once Nas stops predicting him to break down it will all be down hill. Luckily for Wolves fans Nas is one of the more stubborn men I’ve ever met.

Interesting note I just read - first time since 2009 the Bulls haven’t had an All Star on the team. I guess it hasn’t been quite as bad as guys like vegan say the past 6-7 years.

The Hoiberg era has been miserable. Worse than the Del Negro era. Bad teams send guys to the ASG every year - not a good indicator.

You wanted the Bulls to be bad this year and they are. It seems like you just like to complain.

When did I say i want them to be bad? Our difference is what makes for a meaningful season. You seem to be fine with basketball hell as long as there is a playoff run/appearance included. I am more or less firmly on the side of those who say "in it to win it."

Do I really need to find posts of yours saying you want them to lose as many games as possible? You’ve said this like a hundred times in the last year.

I’m not sure you know what basketball hell is.

You’re wrong. I wouldn’t love it but I’d accept it. If you are unhappy every time your team doesn’t win a championship you’re setting yourself up to be an extremely miserable fan.

I’m not confusing you with anyone else at all. You’re firmly on the “I want my team to tank and rebuild if they aren’t one of the best teams in the league” wagon. I don’t think any poster here has held that position as consistently as you over the years. Maybe rfdc or imu.

For the hypothetical quote of mine up there, I wouldn't say I want my team to tank and rebuild. I just want them to go for it. Trade for a star, sign a star, set yourself up to draft a star, etc. Not necessarily tanking, though tanking at times may be a tool you could use. By the way, your revered Spurs only became the Spurs because they tanked to get Duncan. I know Robinson got injured but they made sure to lose as much as possible.

That logic has been disproven by their continued success post-Duncan, which almost never happens in the NBA.

And given your explanation above, you should be happy with the Bulls current path. Their rookie is on his way to being a star.

Well "success" is a stretch there

Big picture wise the Bulls should be setting themselves up to make a pitch to Anthony Davis when the time is right, or seeing what they can do to build a solid core.

No it isn’t. Last year’s warriors team was universally regarded as one of the best teams of all time and when Kawhi was healthy the Spurs owned them. They had to resort to using a no-talent goon taking a cheap shot to beat them. These are the facts.


Of course. Every team in the league is attempting to do this.

Bulls tanked in order to draft Jordan. Longtime Bulls know this.

No we don't... Portland selects MJ the Bulls are fucked

They tanked in order to draft higher. Drafting higher allowed them an oppprtunity to draft Jordan. Do your research.

Portland had no use for Jordan.
