OUTSTANDING🔥💋
You have to speak for yourself cuz the fans was not expecting the bulls to trade Zach lavine for none of the damn people you was talking about
What's the point of drafting players if Billy won't play them?
Phillips has the size and athleticism, but definitely needs an outside perimeter game. I can see him being a starter in about a couple of seasons, but it will be restart at that point. I can see AK in the route he’s going drafting long players with upside. Dalen Terry will be the point, P Will the four and Phillips as the wing and whoever else in the lineup at that point.
Adama Sanogo is 6’9” 245 lbs won final four MOP for UConn sets solid screens is a good rebounder has good defense and you guys have nothing to say about him 🤔
He can allow P.Will to play his natural position at SF and let Vuc linger on the perimeter like he always do. Idk what you 2 are smoking/drinking but put it away. Bulls need size and I think he will be a good fit
The Bulls will tear it down after next year when they again fail to finish above .500. Will AKME still be around to fix their screwups?
I watched probably 2 dozen UConn games last year. Such a big fan of Sanogo. Aside from his obvious strength, he really has great footwork, great touch in the paint, and moves well without the ball. Not a high jumper, but comes in with many huge blocks.
AK is a terrible GM
That press conference was pathetic. They sound like they have no idea what they're doing
Low key bring back Rob…Tony is too cynical for my taste….
Welcome to Bulls Nation Julian Phillips! #seered
Sign Cameron Johnson RFA…Wow! WOW!
Go into the luxury tax. If it doesn't work out shed salary next summer.
Ak sucks
