the frustrating thing is that the Bulls already had Brand and Artest and all they needed to do was keep those guys, bring in some non-embarrassing role players, and then not have jay williams decide to ride a motorcycle and they probably would have at least been ok enough to make the playoffs in the East.

Yeah giving up on Brand when he was 21 and walked into the league as an immediate 20/10 guy was bizarre.

when he traded brand to put together an Eddy Curry Tyson Chandler lineup I thought it was the most brilliant move of all time. Move over Robinson and Duncan, here comes the new twin towers, and well...
Yeah. And they had just an insane number of really high picks in that time.

Deeply remembering the times on RealGM when the ideal lineup was supposed to have 2 natural centres and how, eventually, every player on the floor will be a 7 footer.

What teams have announced plans on reopening their gyms? Raps just announced their plans for opening their practice facility.

https://www.cbc.ca/sports/basketball/nba/toronto-sports-raptors-leafs-practice-facilities-1.5561224

Main rules are:

1. Only one player/non-Nick Nurse coach in the building at a time (rather than the NBA rule of 4 players)
2. Only access to the court, no weight/conditioning/locker room access. Players were given equipment for home workouts so it’s meant for shooting access

Apparently half the team is currently hanging out in town and might take part.

Every profound spirit needs a mask: even more, around every profound spirit a mask is growing continually, owing to the constantly false, namely shallow , interpretation of every word, every step, every sign of life he gives.

You apparently don't even need to @ him. Any Tweet with 'KD' in it gets sent straight to his alerts.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
I'm going to say a compliment to him without @ then because I know he'll read it and maybe smile for a second before going back on the warpath.

lmao loving same old bulls

quote:

However, the Sun-Times has learned that things are staying vague for a reason. Ownership, as well as former vice president of basketball operations-turned-adviser John Paxson, would like Boylen back and have told the coach as much.

save us, zach lavine

quote:

What will undoubtedly sink him, though, is a source said that several key players ripped Boylen to the regime, and then there’s the elephant in the room of a 39-84 (.317) record since taking over from Fred Hoiberg.

He's cheap, he's desperate to keep his job at all costs, he goes out of his way to flatter management and he personally put in the legwork to stop at least one season ticket holder from bailing. The perfect Bulls coach
