Didn't see the game, but..... I'm guessing the minutes distribution was closer to what we can expect in the regular season than any other game so...
Don't think this moves the needle very much.
I can imagine Mirotic getting 12mpg when everyone's healthy, but once you assume injuries I think his mpg is almost certain to go up. I'd bet on him...
If Doug displayed an ability to score in isolation that'd really top the cake for his rookie season, assuming his defense translates once the season...
I personally won't be upset if Doug starts the season off the bench for the following reasons: 1). Thibs hangs his hat on demanding consistent...
Yeah, after getting halfway done through the article I was thinking to myself "Man, this is vintage Thibs." You gotta hand it to the guy, he's...
I think Gasol will generally take the bigger, less mobile defensive assignments that make it easier for him to camp out close to the basket. Noah...
I can see Jimmy becoming a reliable shooter with his feet set, but I can't see him being a high usage player. The best thing about his offense is...
His defense is definitely what's most surprising. I thought it'd be a gaping hole, but I can't believe how good it's looked. I was never worried...
Two observations: 1).I wouldn't be at all surprised if Kirk's time is split between backing up Derrick and playing alongside him to ease his load on...
I think this offseason was an attempt to allay Thibs, not piss him off. Thibs doesn't have a problem going deep into his bench. He has a problem...
I'm expecting both of them to have very respectable seasons. It'll be a bit of a build up, but they're both being put in very good situations to do...
This is a stab in the dark, but: Doug: 9 ppg 45% 2P 39% 3P 4 Reb 1 ast 0.4 stl 0.4 blk 57% TS Mirotic: 8PPG 5 RPG 46% 2P 37% 3P 55% TS 1 APG 0.7...
McLips, it's your time to shine.
This is the DefRTG ranking for the Bulls under Thibs: 2010-2011: 1 2011-2012: 1 2012-2013: 5 2013-2014: 2 Predicting #1 isn't outlandish. We're 4...
One of the biggest surprises in preseason for me is how McDermott's defense looks more NBA ready than his offense. Didn't see that one coming....
I agree with Transplant. The more talented you are the easier it is to judge how much of a Bball IQ you have so it's hard to gauge these things....
Rose PPG - 18. It'll be closer to 15 at the beginning of the season and closer to 20 at the end. Team defense rank - 1. We were second only to...
Obviously you don't want to take too much from one game, but I was pleased with the team. Rose looked good, Niko looked great. I was also surprised...
Me likey. He looked good out there.
