Bulls really can't move much closer than 7. They are 5 games behind Orlando for 6. Toronto a half game back of Bulls for lottery.

Idk what it is about the Hornets, but we seem to suddenly become a competent team every time we play them

Back to a trash team for the next game though, book it

We need them to blow it here and get back into the 7th lotto slot.

yeah, but Zach and Vuc are both back. Harder to lose games now. Boston is trying to come back and take it from them

Gotta say, it’s nice to see the bulls respond when Boston cut it down to single digits. Bulls have folded a lot of those games, so it’s nice to see them faced with that situation yet again but this time have an answer. Coby, Zach, and Vuc took over there and ran it back to 20

Watching ZL and Vuc play together is a lot of fun. The future is bright

Unfortunately a bit late it the season. The good news is we only have 5 guaranteed contracts and one player option (Aminu which is unfortunate) and with a cap projected at 112M, we will have about 73 million to play with and build a really good team around it. Possibly one max and a bunch of good role players. Can't forget we also got Marko Simonovic ballin out in Europe who looks ready to come over and could become one of those unicorn type players (6'11 with handles, great passing ability, athletic and good shooting ability ).

Max wise, I doubt we could get Kawhi or Paul but would we take a shot at Lowry? Not sure he's worth 30M at this point.

Can we convince Rose to come home? Or get in bidding war with New Orleans for Ball?

If we stay with what we have, and drop only Lauri (9M qualifying offer)and Arch (3M team option), it still gives us 25M to work with. that's where the Aminu contract hurts because there is no way he's turning down his 10M player option. 35M would be really nice to have to fill 5 spots.

*Not a cap expert by any means. Wrote this as if the team wanted to stay under cap.

Simonovic is from the same team/academy as Jokic.

Yeah I definitely ate those words didn't I lol

Nice to see the team string together wins, but it's gotta be too little too late at this point. I guess we'll see, 2.5 games out of the 10th spot now

oh I’m sure it is too little too late. If only Zach hadn’t had the covid that kept him out for those 11 games. I like that the team seems to be going for it and trying to win out to see what happens anyways. If they were to make the play in tourney, I could see them advancing thru it. Of course, get ready for some posters to get all pissy about that and act like it doesn’t matter, “wE gEtTiNg BoUnCeD 1st rOuNd!”

Yeah Zach being out for that long hurt their chances big time. I can't see them catching Indiana for that last spot, but if it happens, great. Whatever helps us to give Orlando a worse pick lol

Man, coby and lauri are such a negative on the defensive end. It’s brutal. Lauri looks like he’s never boxed out a day in his life

Zach is big time. Not only getting it done on offense, but he’s playing some great defense. Love to see it.
