Word word you right I got it confused

But yeah Lauri should be 2nd in scoring after sexton on this team at around 19-21 ppg if everything goes right with the rest of the roster

playing for a bad franchise in the bulls who don’t know how to properly develop and then going to Cleveland to play in a loaded frontcourt makes ppl think he doesn’t have it in him but he’s already shown from his 2nd season he does

Yeah man none of it was on the bulls…we been through this



“The Sun-Times reported several times that Markkanen grew unhappy with the Bulls under former coach Jim Boylen. He didn’t like what his role in the offense became and privately let the media know that, especially during the 2019-20 season.

Markkanen once joked about being a 7-foot decoy under Boylen and complained the front office and analytics department stripped him of his mid-range game.

But when Donovan took over, that should have meant new life for Markkanen. He was getting a coach who appreciated his complete offensive arsenal, as well as a system in which the ball moved.

In his first 12 games under Donovan, Markkanen scored 20 points or more in half of them and twice reached 30 or more. But a shoulder injury in February sidelined him for more than a month, and he returned to a team that was about to change. The Bulls added big men Nikola Vucevic and Daniel Theis at the trade deadline, and Markkanen was headed to the bench.”
 
the bulls punted on development for multiple players for VUCEVIC

the bulls gave up a great draft pick for VUCEVIC

The bulls lost in the 1st round and some don’t even have the bulls making the playoffs with VUCEVIC

and again you traded lauri for DERRICK JONES JR who’s probably the 10th best player on your team

Like I was telling AX lauri had bad luck playing for a bad franchise

Lauri just a bum who don't have it. Didn't have it with the bulls and didn't do anything when he left. It's him who couldn't hit wide open shots and it's him who can't seem to stay on the court because he's hurt.
 
Ehh this was the first game towns and Gobert played together

towns on the perimeter is a bit ehh but way too small of a sample size to make a determination

but with opposing 4s scaling down in size and increasing in mobility and perimeter scoring it’s gonna be difficult

It won't be a problem until the playoffs, Gobert is good enough to clean most of that shit up....but Anthony Edwards has been showing a lot defensively as well. This is already the most defensive talent Gobert has ever played with when you throw in Kyle Anderson, Rivers, Mcdaniels and even Prince is solid. That's saying a lot because none of them are great but it's better than anything he played with in Utah(Your boy Royce O Neal and Favors is the best he ever played with)

Pretty much why I think Minnesota should be really good during the regular season and I think they can be a top 4 seed
