I don't think he has much of a choice to be honest - I think at this point - Pace will have no trouble coming down. Quite frankly, Jenkins is going to need the full 21 days so I see it more as a moot point because right now him learning from Peters will be good and 21 days from now is a long time in terms of who might get hurt (including Peters who isn't a spring chicken and has typically gotten hurt).

Whitehair is not a center - he has proven that on enough instances and they drafted Jenkins to play tackle. I'm playing him there. I am over the Bears and their musical chairs of lines and where guys play. Enough is enough, you have two guards (Whitehair and Daniels - that is where they play). I get it when injuries force a hand but this is not that situation. You also have two young tackles in Borom/Jenkins. When Jenkins is ready, he has to get a spot on the line and the only real question is going to be whether Borom or Jenkins slides to LT and obviously whether either of these guys end up any good.

Exactly this - no guarantees and he hasn't had a lot of practice, etc, but just to get that work in would be huge vs. a totally lost season.

One note from game: pat Williams was out on court (in cast), but found it interesting he was traveling with the team? Bulls need to sign Boogie and take a shot. Not saying Boogie is any good anymore, but he plays a crappier but similar game to Vuc and would be an upgrade over Bradley or Johnson (in pinch starter roles). Am excited to get White back. I know he will be rusty for first few weeks to a month but especially with Vuc out - you can see how this team needs another scorer and I expect White will be a much better version of himself this year where he will benefit from being around better players and being asked to be in a role I think he is more comfortable with.

That was awesome. Bradley was absolutely worthless and they still won. With Vuc they win that by 20 and I thought the refs were trash too tonight. That said - first time my son has ever seen the Bulls win in person and first time I have in a while. Loved it!

Was awesome. Beat Jamaica and I’ll be feeling a lot better in terms of positioNing.

Haha I came to post the same thing. Seems like a fun game to have been at though Tex!

Zero depth at the front court right now. It is what it is. Get back quick Vuc.

This - lets be realistic. Vaughn might get better and he was somewhat passable in left but that was relative to Eloy who was horrendous and our base line expectations for Vaughn which were very bad. The reality is he has still literally played 1 year of outfield in basically his career (or at least that was my impression) so it is a pretty big gap for him to evolve more than that. I get it if a SS moves to CF or OF and becomes a stud in time...because their pure athleticism, etc...but Vaughn will never be more than serviceable at best (and there is nothing wrong with that either).

Echo this - thank you all for your service!!!

Evidently it is 10 days or 2 negative tests. I think the Bulls just said 10 days to play it safe but it could change. I assume he actually has symptoms so that is why everyone is assuming 10 days.

Yeah they have some hard teams coming up. Warriors, Clippers, Lakers, and Nuggets. Plus Blazers somewhere in there.

Figures - let me guess - someone else will get added too just in time for when I get to watch them live. I am a curse. In all seriousness hope Vuc gets better fast

Another fantastic and fun game. Loved seeing Vuc olay big and use his post game later in 4th. Lavine, Caruso and Ball were crazy good tonight. I liked how Ball went in the paint. I hope with time Ball will learn a bit on how to improve his inside game from Demar and Lavine.

A total stud. Love Hendricks!

This - I probably rippped on White more than any person on this board for the past 2 years. But he still scored 15 PPG last year while trying to learn a new position on the fly on a highly flawed roster. I thought that had negative impact on his ability to play comfortably but on the current Bulls I think I see a much better fit as a 6th man microwave type option and I still believe he should be capable of being a solid defender (he showed it early his rookie season before turning into a total train wreck).

I am not a huge Coby fan - not as a PG and what they tried. However, I do think off the bench he will be pretty solid and unfortunately he didn't have an off-season due to his injury so will be interesting to see.

Just got my tix to the Bulls - Clippers game. Am excited and hoping to finally see a Bulls win in person. Will be there Sunday and Monday (once with family and once with work). Pretty damn excited.

He was cleared for practice yesterday. I'm guessing there are some rules of how you move players between squads to enable practicing (since he isn't technically a 2 way player)?

I like Conforto - but I think it is too much money for a player who is good, not great. The fit etc is not bad...I just prefer shorter term deals or saying screw it and signing Scherzer to something stupid for 2 years (not that he will take it).

I like this strategy.

I expect Pace will get promoted, they will than promote Champ (asst gm) to GM and will hire a new head coach. I could be wrong, but I don't see Pace getting fired. I think the McCaskey's think highly of him (even if we as fans don't) and I think they will give him a lot of credit for Fields (who is starting to flash). I think he gets to hire a new head coach. I think Phillips retains his title but no longer control over football decisions.

I am excited though - the cupboard is better than people give the Bears credit for. Glass half full - we have 2 legit running backs and I think the oline is significantly better than we think. It is young and if Borom can keep stacking games like this, I like our chances more. Jenkins has real upside so hopefully he can also pan out. Big ifs but Kmet has put together a few straight good games with this being a very strong game (both receiving and he's a very good blocker). Mooney is Mooney - which is a solid wideout. Fields showed real development the past 2 weeks and I noticed he started to bring out different clubs on his deep ball tonight. Shows me how quick he is to adjust. I also saw quite a few passes which were multiple read plays. This was a good defense on the road and he had a TD and a number of solid plays taken off the board from penalties. And this is with Nagy - who clearly has not figured out any way to run a decent offense since becoming HC, so take those skill players and combine them with a better OC and this offense is basically an upgraded WR corps away from having some pretty good talent (and young talent at that). The team will have cap space and while the defense is aging...right now I just want a good offense...than I'll worry about having a defense.

100% on the coaching. But you know what - Justin Fields, on the road, not a perfect game by any stretch, but back to back weeks of real progress and that was a pretty good 2nd half from a young kid, down on the road.

This - I looked at my wife and said Santos is okay (in the sense he is accurate) but he is beyond worthless past about 50 yards (no leg strenght). I mean can he even hit a 66 yarder in practice? You had to take a shot at a hail mary there.
