He wouldn't be terrible but the issue is a lot of the FA point guards will likely be expensive relative to value. 36 Y.O. chris paul would be taking a huge personal paycut. Jrue Holiday or Dennis Schroder...Mike Connelly, etc. PGs come up enough that you probably don't want to force that position. It would be interesting putting a strong wing with Giannis.

Not giving up on him but not penciling him in for him as a piece of the future either. Not really high on any bulls player now but we’ll see what a real coach does

The best news is being very confident that Karnisovas can get the info needed to judge a draft where you need good info from Australia, France and Israel.

AK should not get credit for this but man what a run of drafting in denver holy crap. https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/DEN/draft.html 2018 (14) - Michael Porter Jr. 2017 (13) - Donovan Mitchell (all star) 2016 (7) - Jamal Murray (all star) 2016 (12) - Juan Hernangomez 2016 (14) - Malik Beasley (traded both this year for a 1st round pick, napier, gerald green, bates-diop and salary) 2015 (7) Emanuel Mudiay (traded to new york, draft bol bol with it) - Worst pick by far 2014 (11) - trade pick (Doug McDermott) to Chicago for 16, 18 2014 (16) - Gary Harris (starter) 2014 (18) - Jusuf Nurkic (traded to Portland for plumlee, got useless with Nokic) 2014 (41) - Nikola Jokic (all star) 2013 (27) - Rudy Gobert Holy. Crap. Here is the bulls drafting since 2013 2019 (7) - Coby White 2018 (7) - Wendell Carter Jr 2018 (22) - Chandler Hutchinson 2017 (7) - Lauri Markannen (trade jordan bell in 2nd round) 2016 (14) - Denzel Valentine 2016 (48) - Paul Zipser 2015 (22) - Bobby Portis 2014 (11) - Doug McDermott 2014 (48) - Cameron Bairstow 2013 (20) - Tony Snell 2013 (49) - Erik Murphy Bolded was Bulls drafting ahead of Nuggets. That org can draft. Let's hope we got a guy that was key to that success.

This is nice to get tid bits on building out an international operation. It's been a while, but AK probably has a lot of connections in those NBA scouting gigs internationally (I believe he ran that), so he could put together quite a staff there.

I think so? Removing all team options and keeping all rookie deals and team options (arcidiacano, white, hutchinson, carter, markannen, gafford, puts them at 49.5 mill according to this: http://www.basketballinsiders.com/chicago-bulls-team-salary/ That's about 60 mill compared to 2020 cap space and who knows if it grows considering revenues next year. But they could easily get rid of hutchinson. That wouldn't be enough for all max guys but would get them close enough where if its a package deal they could probably make it work. But yeah...interesting year. Do we think AD leaves LA? I doubt it. Is Kawhi opting out? Giannis + Oladipo could be interesting. Team desperately needs a good point guard. Giannis + PG with Lavine at the 2. Would be fun if Ball fell to 4 then. With a coach players like and an exec team that's not a joke, suddenly these posts don't seem that crazy.

COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
Good news, and the knee-slap pile-on for U of I despite them being the most well-planned college re-opening in the country was (unsurprisingly) too harsh. Mass testing does not mean no outbreaks can happen, it means you can respond to it quickly.

White Sox to participate in 2020 Arizona Instructional League
Nice, when I scanned this yesterday I thought it was just referring to sox holding their own camp in AZ, not that it was organized ball. Glad we'll get to hear reports more freely.

We’d lose our minds, but yeah, the twins not gaining any ground the last two nights probably clinched it.

I didn’t see him beat 91 but probably missed it. Very paranoid about injuries before playoffs now.
