No way it was drawn up so he would converge with Vuc and take a contested, long 2 pointer, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love This. Shame he was a Bulls long timer. He was such a good coach. Players love playing for him. Upper management tried smearing him on the way out of course.

My guess is it was a read react play that could have gone to either. Williams played aggressive for a few minute - hurt again. He has good touch and mid range - needs to get health and come back with anger and aggression. This was a game where White would have been huge. They needed another guy to space the floor and hit buckets and a hot White would have been exactly what the doctor ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than what they turned out getting, true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I could watch live but at least have set for DVR. You were right the first time, but he made himself into something he wasn't when they drafted him by a lot of hard work. They could use a few of those old timers back right now to protect the middle and get a few rebounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quin Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Re: P-Will, anyone think Harry Giles might be worth a flier? Talent has always been there, he's just had but injuries have hampered him, so he'd be a low risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fair question regardless of his dual roles. He should have been able to at least get Butler to help him out a bit, instead he gutted the team from inside and got himself traded, and Thibs fired.

Chisoxfn Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Wow - Is that really an injury that takes that long to recover or Bulls being conservative on timeline? Poor guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Oh man - I just read something and this sounds like an awful awful life impacting type of injury. And on a flagrant foul. Total crap. Get better Pat and hopefully you come back and are able to put it behind you and take the league by storm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 This sucks because as much as I complained about Williams I still thought he was one of those guys who could have gotten a lot better as season went on and as a cost controlled piece/asset going forward. In short term this obviously hurts and slows that trend but long run he is still super young and should still be able to work on his quickness but obviously won’t be able to shoot etc for a while. Tough how many of the Bulls recent picks have had a lot of trouble staying on the court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) I heard his injury was a perilunate dislocation of his left wrist which is really serious. @ptatc is there a chance his career might be altered with this? I know that is the most serious wrist injury you can have. I believe this will effect his passing, dribbling, etc. for the rest of his career. Thank god he shoots right handed though.
