Shams Charania on Nikola Vučević Injury, Bulls’ FUTURE & Trade Rumors 🚨
Shams we got scoop time we it’s the Bulls they don’t have any room for any big mistakes and it looks like now they’re out without vich for a minute what happened yeah nicovich has a growing strain and I’m told he’s going to be sidelined for at least the next s
To 10 days like you said Michelle this is a team without Zack LaVine right now they’ve had several different injury woses Tory Craig also out for the foreseeable future now Nico vich you hope with this growing strain over the next 7 to 10 days he’s able to get right
Get back on the court definitely a significant loss he’s been out of all their guys very very durable played all 82 games last season last night missed his first game all year he’s averaging 19 points 11 rebounds over his last 10 games but listen last night Andre Drummond 24 points 25 rebounds two
Blocks uh he’s he was a starter for them at Center and the numbers that he’s put up uh last night hakee ljan Charles Barkley Roy tarley Chris Weber Dwight Howard that’s the group that he joined so theyve won nine of last 13 they’re going to have to do it without V switch
At least for the next week or so all right that’s a big one it obviously changes the rotation a little bit you heard about Drummond there who else steps up in his absence Lou what are you saying was it got to be Kobe white you
Know Kobe white has to be the guy that’s going to be you know to Robin to demard De rozan obviously Demar de rozan is going to wake up he’s going to have 20 20 20 to 25 points a game that’s just who he is but Kobe white you know the
NBA is about situation and about opportunity you know he was a highly drafted guy and then boom you bring in two All-Star caliber guys and you kind of get pushed to the back of the bus and so now this is an opportunity for him to show and prove um his worth with this
Organization and this team and his teammates and going forward and another guy that we got we got to mention Alex Caruso got to play better for this group now um that he’s going to have an opportunity to play Big Time minutes as well so they still have the talent and
The guys that can keep this ship going um in a positive direction they just got to step up and do it at this point such a weird season for the Bulls of the way it started now you’ve got injuries they seem to be doing something together successful season for this team
Channeller when it’s all said and done what does that look like I mean if they don’t make any moves then it’s to get into the play and playoffs and and you know hopefully survive in advance but when you look at this team I look at Patrick Williams man
This is fourth what fourth year I think and this is a top five NBA draft pick who at this point now this should be his team right they should be so comfortable to be trading Zack LV and dear Rosen because they have this guy and it’s just
Not he disappears he’s two for seven six points this happens too much and he’s got all the intangibles he’s coming out this guy’s got Kawhi lard type guy you know Scotty Barnes he can defend he can score he’s big and strong and he just hasn’t panned out to what they thought
He would be coming out of Florida state with the you know the fourth pick in the draft so this to me is a golden opportunity for him your guys are out everyone’s on the trading block you’re one of the young pieces that they don’t
Really want to give up yet this is to me where he steps up and he can be that breath of fresh air and give them that just sigh of relief so yeah Zack LaVine we can move off from him because we have this guy moving forward and they just he
They for whatever reason system or style of play he hasn’t given them that that boat of confidence yet so does this seem a contender no no CH no not even close but they do have the experience they do have the Vets they do have the team to go and be a tough out
Playoff series but they’ve been trying I thought they were going to trade everybody last year now it’s this off then it’s this year it’s like pull the pull the plug already so help me Shams if we get to the trade deadline and the Bulls and Raptors do nothing I don’t
Know what I’m capable that’s all I’m saying I mean the one guy that we can say for a fact is they’re trying you know they’re GNA try to work on a deal with Zack L now if the deal doesn’t happen he’s he’s owed I think what 3
Years 140 million the next three years like that contract is a significant number for any team so it won’t be for a lack of trying now guys like demard rose and Nico vich those guys I’m less sure of because this team is playing better they’re competing uh for for at least a
Play in playoff birth right now love you oh this team is better off not making the playoffs sham and then going and getting lucky and getting a lively with the 10th pick or something like that you know what I mean they’re not going to contend they not going to
Win blow it up and prepare for the future man as they might end up higher than the Pistons in the ladder you never know oh God that would suck
