bmags Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I wonder if that's why Thibs left Draymond Green open to hit 15 3's in that first game vs. warriors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 28, 2015 -> 03:06 PM) Eh, both were projects, Teague more so. He had potential, just never got there. Green has clearly overachieved. It's their jobs to determine which "projects" will reach their potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One problem though is that another part of their jobs included keeping their coach happy even at the expense of finding the best players. I could tolerate that for a while, but this year that got kinda excessive (hinrich). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like there was a lot of "go f*** yourself" moments from thibs, and Hinrich was one of them. And I don't know if I wouldn't feel the same way if I was Thibs.

From what mocks I've seen, there won't be a pg or c worth a damn when the Bulls pick. I'm a big Rondae Hollis-Jefferson fan. Ideal wing size with freakish athleticism/length. He's got all-league defensive potential. Of course, his jumpshot/3-point shooting is lacking. I'd love it if the Bulls picked him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way in hell Booker make it to #22. I forgot about Wright. Certainly wouldn't be a bad pick, as the Bulls do need a PG. You're right. We have to wait and see who the next coach is (hopefully he'll reveal what type of system he wants to run, etc) and we'll get a better feel of what type of player we hope to select.

2nd_city_saint787 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Wright, RJ Hunter, Tyus Jones, and Rashad Vaughn in that order are the guys Im looking at. Hollis-Jefferson looks like a freak, but a freak without a 3 point shot. Based on what I've read about Hoiberg, we're gonna see a lot if 3 point shooting.

Swingandalongonetoleft Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 As a Bulls fan, I can't say that I hope this explodes in their face, but I hope Forman and Paxson are held accountable (on Christmas Eve, because it would be fitting) for letting a great Head Coach go if the immediate results (one season) don't make this look like a great move in hindsight.

caulfield12 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball...coaching-rumors How Fred Hoiberg got to big for Iowa State Didn't realize he was also a football player and was recruited by Nebraska/Osborne? What position? WR? S? QB?

I hear the rumors swirling around here but I just don't see him going back to the college he walked onto 30 years ago as long as he's an NBA head coach.

It would be interesting to see what recruiting strategy he would take....following in the Hoiberg path of JC's and transfers and international signings or doing things more traditionally? There's just not much of a track record. One thing's for certain, in Iowa....where you have guys like Self or Roy Williams or Bo Ryan to compete with just for your best in-state players, then you're sharing the state with UNI, Drake, Creighton, Nebraska to an extent, you BETTER have a plan that extends outside the state (for example, more Chicago Public League players)...Milwaukee...KC...Minneapolis, St. Louis, etc. Edited May 29, 2015 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently last off season the Warriors were interested in Hoiberg but he wasn't ready to leave so it ended quickly. I know a guy that works close to Hoiberg so if I happen to hear anything I'll pass it on but you guys will probably know before me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) Kirk Hinrich=Juan Uribe Love him or hate him...very few "in between" opinions.
