Damn. I was just thinking that tomorrow is my birthday and I turn "Scottie Pippen years old". Same age. Can't imagine.

Good to have speed, but I'd imagine he's still roster bubble material. With another deep draft I'd put a decent sized bet on Pace drafting a WR again.

What if I told you there was a new King of the North https://www.instagram.com/p/CNoX5XDrwlH/?igshid=f104a7msil9g -
Rob comes through and pulls out of Georgia

Yes Senator, please go after the billionaire sports owners to own the leftists. -
I have so many questions. I looked up the picture and it didn't even look like there was much blood. Like how... What... I'm so confused

Hopefully organizations are using this as a talking point with their players. They can't force anyone to get vaccinated, but they can let them know that anyone who chooses not to get the vaccine is putting their team at risk. These guys are largely just complete morons. They already tried incentivizing them with the being vaccinated/85% of a team thing with loosened restrictions in the clubhouse/travel/around the stadium, not being an auto sit/quarantine if you are vaccinated and around someone with it with contact tracing, more freedom on the road/allowed to see family more, etc. I hope these guys start losing pay if they continue this nonsense with the vaccine readily available to them. Yea that's never gonna happen.

I mean, George is right. by the looks of it, the players aren't in favor either, So if Geo is the only owner on their side (let's just stretch an assumption) then that can only bode well for the Bears, right? right? That Andy Dalton extension is gonna be so team friendly.
-
Possible political reasons for that answer aside, the existence of the MLB Player Union actually probably makes that a practical response, they would fail to force it on a player.
-
Sure, but most guys aren't. As a mid-round prospect he seems like a somewhat interesting candidate. You have faith that Pace isn't going to do something stupid and draft him in the first round. I do not have that same faith. Yes - I do tend to err on the side of "Pace is an aggressive bet taker who does otherwise very conventional GM things" than "lol Pace".

Don’t want Mond? No, I don’t think he’s going to be a good NFL QB. Sure, but most guys aren't. As a mid-round prospect he seems like a somewhat interesting candidate.

More like Marcus Dumb, amirite
-
I don't get it He's very bad at football
-
The amazing part of that story is that another team wanted to sign Coward.
-
Okay, fine, a 5th rounder for Darnold.

AKME learning early the key to staying in ownerships good graces.

Well their bigs suck and they have no PG either With last year's version of Zach they'd have about 10 wins, if that. Their bigs are now Vucevic and (allegedly) Theis, which doesn't suck. They still have nobody to really distribute, so that's still a major deficiency. Yes if it wasn't clear I was taking about the new version of this team. There's obviously tons of teams in the PO mix, but from a "games behind" metric they were in the thick of it before adding Vucevic.
-
Damn, that leaves PG and big man depth as 2 areas of weakness for the Bulls. We can get by with Sato and Coby for this season and still make the playoffs I think but we'll see. I mean after the top 3 seeds it's wide open in the East. I'm an NBA idiot, but how is this team not at least playing playoff basketball? And it sounds like they'll have some cap space. Not necessarily max cap space, but that can always be engineered if the opportunity arises.

Fans expect GMs to create a market out of thin air. The best you can do is be opportunistic, really. AK was ready to strike always.
-
Okay I'm so NBA dumb, I don't even know who those Wizards guys are. Eta: Nevermind I remember who Wagner is at least.
-
I also just read that the pick this year is top 4 protected, so this prevents us from really getting burned if the Bulls cant make the playoffs Both of the picks are top-4 protected, apparently. This feels like a surprise - after last night's ridiculous loss to Cleveland I would've bet on another tank - but I guess with LaVine only signed one more year, AK was going to have to pick a lane pretty soon anyway, and this is the more interesting one. Kind of crazy that I was annoyed when the Bulls matched Sacramento's 4/78 offer for LaVine and now he's the cornerstone and almost certainly getting a max extension in a few months. I thought I read an extension for him would be a ton less than if he waits it out and signs a new deal after next year. Not sure what Vucevic does with the cap space they were set to have, but presumably they still want to bring in a third "big" piece before Lavine has to get paid.

How does NSBB feel about this trade? I don't follow the NBA that close these days. I like it. He's a scorer (24.5 per game) that will take some pressure off of LaVine. A little older than I'd like, but I think this makes the Bulls a playoff team this year, which means the picks won't be lottery picks. They are still after Lonzo, and if they can pull that off, I'll feel really good about this team. While, i would be interested in Vuc and Lauri together, I think a lineup of Lonzo, LaVine, Williams, Vucevic, and whoever at the 3/4 with Coby off the bench would be solid. Looks like his usage exploded this year. Next to Lavine he's probably a high teens scorer. But the advanced stats seem to like him over his career.
-
Lauri straight up? Supposedly they offered Sato+2nd rounders for him already.
