Westbrook left one mess why would he come to another mess
We're excited to have Pat back home but K.C.'s kind words made this signing sound even more inviting.
Pat Bev will add a ton of grit to a team looking to make a playoff push. This type of grit can win the Bulls some close games down the stretch
I just hope Pat bring the best outta them
Tough break for Lonzo. Hopefully, he fully recovers and is able to play at a high level again. However, AKME has to move on with a new plan for the next yrs roster. This patch n play PG by committee is not working, and there are very few pass 1st PG's in the league anymore. So where do the Bulls go from here?
Lonzo Ball signing looking like a disaster now and can only hope for an injury exception.
Hopefully coaching puts them in a position to make a run.
I know the narrative is bulls have a top ten defense because of teams are missing good looks the bulls give them but I’ve watched every game this season and I have never witnessed the way teams get hot against the bulls and the ridiculous shots they make I’ve honestly never seen anything like it especially at the beginning of the year
Why not John wall or pat bev soooo confusing 🤦🏾♂️
All we need now is Draymond Green
WHY NOT DROSE MAN…I hope next season he comes:)
I think they like Dragic at the 3. It sounds crazy but he’s usually pretty decent with 2 other guards on the floor.
Karl Malone made a bad decision a long time ago and this guy is still trying to hold him to something he did that was terrible at 19. I don’t get that.
His number 1 one job should be getting to know Ayo and Dalen teaching them his defensive schemes to pass to them. Number 2 put a fire under P Will to be greater.
Done-zo. Signing a guy with Lonzo’s game, without his injury history would have been cool. But knowing his long list of lower body injuries prior to signing with the Bulls, AK and Eversley should have known. I get the feeling that they wanted to build a winner so bad, they locked in on big names who were available, and they paid top dollar with total disregard for fit and future flexibility. I don’t know what this team is going to do
with alex caruso struggling with his shoulder this season pat bev should be solid to have in case
This should be the end of an era in Chicago. The Billy Donovan era. Missing Lonzo does not add up when you added Drummond and Dragic and have P Will healthy. Adding P Bev gives them a boost defensively and depth at guard. Before they bust up this roster we will see a new staff on the sideline
Bulls 2022-2023 season goals
– Get the young guy's more playoff experience.
—————————–
2023-2024 if Lonzo is healthy, Eastern Conference Finals.
—————————
Walking into this season we didn't expect to win a title. Just try to make the playoffs to develop Ayo, Williams, etc. and keep this team together. This team, when healthy can make a finals and beat anyone. But in order for the bulls to be at full-power, we need Lonzo or for Jason Kidd to go into the Lazarus pit then play for us.😅
Trade nobody, wait til next year, with this team, we gon be a problem next season.
————————-
And any fan asking for us to tank, please trade them to the Philly 76ers fanbase. We don't do that in the Chi. We play with heart and go down swinging. Let the young guys get that do-or-die experience. Every championship team had to get knocked down a few times before they became a champion.
Consider a healthy Bulls team with Caruso, Pat Bev guarding the wings coming off the bench? Bruh, who the hell scoring on our 2nd unit?!
Be patient, we got all the pieces we need. Especially if we keep Drummond and get long-term grit and grind type of big man.
P-Bev is a veteran version of Ayo
I will say this regarding the Lonzo injury. I'm at the point that I don't give a damn about what it does for the franchise. I just want to see him get healthy as a player and person. Obviously, there are financial ramifications, but that human element is most important to me.
