      ​@HeadStartNFL I don't think this has much of an effect on sanogo. I feel Smith will play more as a PF, sanogo I don't feel like van play the 4 at this level. Sanogo is most likely vuc's backup if they don't pick anyone else up

    I like Jalen Smith. I'm not saying he will be an All Star but he has lots of untapped potential. As his role increased so did his production at Indy. At Phoenix, he was stuck behind Ayton, and Indy was behind Myles Turner. 9 mill per yr is a gr8 contract for someone on the upswing of their career. The Bulls will need his rebounding, help defense in the low post, and a big who runs the floor well.
    AK is doing a good job so far with drafting Matas, and signing Jalen. Now he has to get a good return for Zach and DeMar and the rebuild will be complete.

      As much as I'd love to see Gafford back in a Bulls jersey, I just don't see any way Dallas moves him, especially now that they lost DJJ to the Clippers. A big reason for their success last season was the hyper athletic good defender type players they had, such as DJJ, Gafford and Lively. They can't afford to lose Gaff after losing DJJ

    Thaddeus Young vibes. Solid offense IQ, would be a great energy guy off the bench but in the grand scheme, the Bulls aren't keeping up w/the trend back to bigger front courts. Wanted Wiseman for that very reason.

    I'm not feelin a full rebuild, but in this case, we definitely need to do something different. Problem is the front office, especially our head joke (coach) have absolutely no player development skills. Billy Dickhead Donavan has actually shown that he has absolutely no common sense when trying anything to help the younger guys, he actually stops them from doing what they do best on the floor!! TF?? I've actually seen him stop them from making any real steps forward or progression with his lack of knowledge & lack of game time he actually gives the young guys. He only likes to play his starters and the other players just sit and stare wishing to get more opportunity. He never uses the young talent unless one of the starting 5 gets injured. Even then he don't like to use the young bloods, if he can get away with running injured players. He'll literally play a crippled starting 5 if they can still limp down the floor, and he could get away with it.!?!? 😂😢

You also sign the mediocre and low-motor Patrick Williams to a bargain deal, too. It's sad, and I wish the owners cared about winning. Williams and Smith will be part of the most passive front line in the NBA.
