scs787 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 (edited) Bulls add another solid 3 and D role played in Torrey Craig. Again nothing flashy and won't "Move the needle" but a good add nonetheless. He actually started 60 games last year for the Suns. Edited July 3, 2023 by scs787 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scs787 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Hoping the Ball exception goes through and the MO Bamba rumors are true. That'd be yet another 3 point threat and some much needed rim protection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scs787 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Vuc is criminally underrated. He gets unfairly tagged as a bad defender merely because he doesn't block shots. I hope they do change the offense to give him more touches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on now man, he is slow in the paint and is awful against the pick and roll. They abused him all year last year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They abused him all year last year I don’t think anyone is really worried about him not blocking shots. It’s the slow feet, lack of rotation, lazy effort, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 It is amazing how the JR franchises are run and so spot on with the carrot theory of JR only interested in having a team good enough to be interesting but never going all in.

You say that now, but once Javon Freeman-Liberty, Carlik Jones, Dalen Terry, Onuralp Bitim, Julian Phillips, Justin Lewis, Adama Sanogo, and Jontay Porter destroy the Summer and G-Leagues, they'll become the next Heat.

Quin Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 It is almost White Sox-esque that the Bulls cut Dinwiddie for Cameron Payne/Michael Carter-Williams and then lost Max Strus because of an ACL tear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 I do have moments of wanting to believe. It requires believing this shooting coach turning around every single athletic single dimensional wing into a top 3 pt shooter with ferocious defense. But that lasts a few seconds.

Based on a highlight reel, which we all know are absolute gospel, I think we can safely call Bitim a Turkish Lavine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure how we make it happen but I feel like it has been a long time since we had a knock down 3 point shooter as a role guy Front court size and rim protection are also lacking. That's a lot of deficiencies. You wouldn't know who constructed that roster, would you?😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's ever gonna be great, but he was a good rim protector and definitely adds size. They've added shooting and if you squint real hard Carter looks like he could be a starting level PG. Has the Ball exception gone through?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
