I’m glad the Bulls finally did something. Seeing Zach Lavine get traded feels good. Finally not settling for being the 9-10 seed in the East is overdue. Sure, the Bulls may be worse than that in the short term, but they may not be. Either way, as a Bulls fan, I feel refreshed.
Yeah, I know… the owner’s last name is still Reinsdorf, and the AKME combination in the front office has been subpar to be kind, and our coach is somehow still Billy Donovan; hey, I was feeling refreshed… now I’m just depressing myself again. Who’s next is what I say? Sell them team? Fine. It won’t happen, but a guy can dream. Tell AKME to get packing? Fine. Better chance than Reinsdorf selling the team, but still feels unlikely… although why not? And Donovan? What kind of spell has he put over these guys? Get rid of everybody from the coach upwards; I wouldn’t blink a single eye lid. In fact, I’d feel even more refreshed if any of those components were to happen.
Most likely, what’s next is some more player movement, and my feelings remain the same; I don’t care. Do it! I always had my list of guys that I wouldn’t want the Bulls to touch; Zach was never on that list btw. Coby White was on it; I don’t care now… although, if you recall, when Zach wasn’t around last year, Coby blossomed; will history repeat itself? Can Coby White maintain some kind of consistency, and be a #2-3 on this team? Vooch? Gone…. I’ll never forget this guy I work with; he was furious about the Vooch trade when it went down, and man was he right. What another horrible move by the franchise. Lonzo? Nice player, lots of promise at one point, but with all the injuries… who can rely on him staying healthy for the long term; not I. Bye. Patrick Williams? Please… please send this dude packing, although… lately… because he sees a rookie outplaying his ass, he has stepped up his game a bit, coming off the bench at that, but still… still a bust at #7 overall pick, and of course we paid him like idiots, so… if nobody wanted to take Zach’s contract… We may be stuck with him. Giddey? Young guy… just got him… leave him alone. Ayo? One of my favorite Bulls. Will never be THE guy, but on a good team, could be so, so valuable. There’s nobody else that I’m interested in keeping other than, you know… one of the best reasons to watch the Bulls lately.
If there is one player that will/should get more opportunity with Zach being gone, it’s Matas Buzelis; I think I can finally spell his name without checking. Tuesday night against the Heat will be the first game post-Zach. With Thursday being the trade deadline, I think we’ll see some more changes. It’s about time. Go Bulls!
