  1. Who didn't see that coming, other than KB?
  2. Oh, you know we'll go 17-17 batting or some horsefeathers, then get no hit for 3 games straight right after.
  3. I'm pulling for the little things now. We made the pitcher cover 1B, it'll help wear him down later!
  4. Eh, my guess is most of them are wishing death to players by now. We've turned meatball, meatballs turn way worse.
  5. He appears to be continuing it into the 2nd.
  6. He better get a really early start or else he's not making a postseason roster.
  7. Rice with an RBI single....... No idea what to think about him. Obviously, the bat is exciting. But he's basically DH'ing. Lending to Arguello's reports from scouts saying he's got lots of work to do behind the plate, if he's even capable. If he's a C, he's top 10. If he's a guy with no position, he's 20-30 probably.
  8. I wish some of these guys would get to Arizona, but my guess is we're SOL until fall. Super encouraging early returns on some of them though.
  9. Yeah, keeping Wade happy and healthy is the key for me. He can actually help bring guys here.
  10. How do we go into next year without Wade? I didn't here anything about an opt-out. I heard 2 for 47. 2nd year is a player option.
  11. Yeah... what's weird is that for the past few years, the Bulls have been this team of misfits that were good individually, but didn't fit together. We rid ourselves of Rose, Noah, and Gasol... and then go right back to making the team awkward again. I guess it should be no surprise. I'm honestly super excited about the move. Like I said before, I just really didn't want to watch the Bulls tank. This might be a total disaster, but I am anxious to watch and find out. If we can be at least kinda good, I'll be happy. Wade can opt out after this year too. Max entertainment for sure this season at least.
  12. We obviously disagree on the rebuild. This'll be interesting, no doubt. And yeah, I'm not sure whether this is a 30 win team or a 50 win team. If it misses completely, we'll see a rebuild though. We have discussed this I think before but a rebuild doesn't really exist in the NBA. The better and more accurate way to say "rebuild" in the current NBA is "not have multiple bad, expensive long term contracts on the books" and in the sense the Bulls are rebuilding because we don't have any of those. Considering we can go into next year without Rondo or Wade, I can't argue that. But a rebuild, in my mind, constitutes adding the picks and young guys obviously. Let's face it, if those guys aren't here next season, its likely Jimmy won't be either. Extremely wide range of outcomes now, which makes for entertainment.
  13. We're flinging poo at the wall and hoping it sticks. We're not rebuilding. lol that's exactly what "rebuilding" in the nba would be, only with a much higher chance of being terrible We obviously disagree on the rebuild. This'll be interesting, no doubt. And yeah, I'm not sure whether this is a 30 win team or a 50 win team. If it misses completely, we'll see a rebuild though.

  15. All of whom dominate the ball and none of whom are 3 point shooters. Perfect fit for Hoiball lol. It'll be interesting though. Square peg, round hole. If it blows up, Forman and Hoiberg go away probably. If it works on any level, having space for 2 maxes next year could conceivably be fun.
  16. I honestly don't know whether to laugh or cry.
  17. Well I saw Vickie Vallencourts boobies! And I liked them too!
  18. Woj via Twitter..... Sources: Bulls cancelled meeting, flight kept getting pushed back. If Wade is still serious, Chicago could travel to meet him on Thursday.
  19. Because he gave up a homer? Because he's sucked for several appearances now. So has your thought process before posting.
  20. Because he gave up a homer? In his defense, I'm 100% sure he was looking at fWAR and saw Starlin sitting pretty at -.2, while Warren was at -.3 PRIOR to the HR. I'm sure he was just updating that saga instead of saying the first thing to pop into his brain.
  21. Its a beautiful day in Zumunda!!!!!!!
