Sit half the roster...still win games. What is wrong with this team?

Janero Pargo refuses to come out of retirement.


In all seriousness, if there was EVER a time for the Bulls to sign Ben Gordon on his failed comeback, it would have been after the break.

Had we not gone on that ridiculous three game winning streak we'd have a legit shot at a top 3 pick.

Even though a top 3 pick would be nice, we still have a shot at a good player. This could end up going down as the best draft ever when it's all said and done. I wish we could get Ayton or Doncic, but I'm cool with a player like Mikal Bridges.

I don't know where the cutoff is between franchise-changing talent is and "good" talent. I'm just saying it would've been nice to get one of the more sure things. If that can be had at 7 then no harm done. I just don't know where that cutoff line is.

Also, WTF, New Orleans? I for sure thought their pick would turn into a lottery pick for us once Boogie went down.

Wasn't that said about last year and the year before though?

Every decent draft might be the best ever. These agents do a great job at pumping player hype. But yes 100%, we still can come out of this draft with *another* franchise player. I only say another, because we have a ways to go with the development in two guys that could take that leap to another level.

They didn't fail to lose. Yay.


Minnesota Bulls also made it to the playoffs. Ride the Thibs train... at least for that first round loss. LOL

Based on what John Paxson said at the press conference, it sounds like he's targeting Michael Porter or Mikal Bridges.

Porter may be a long shot, but he's the guy I want. Bridges is a nice consolation prize.

I see Porter as possible at 6.

So, don't we still have a shot at top 3? I thought that was just tie breakers. I think we could get lucky and get one like with D-Rose.

Yes, as with any lotto team we have a chance. I doubt lightning strikes twice though.
