Bradley's shooting has improved tenfold as well since, say, 2012.

 

Nov 4, 2015

Everything has offensively. I remember when he came in as a rookie and legit couldn't dribble. He was a great defender but that's it, not shot and no offensive game at all.

I did expect him to take more of a leap last year after his 3 point % went up to almost 40% and he put up 15 ppg.

s-----y ending. Thomas with 27 & 7. Four 3 pointers. You know what you have to do, Brad Stevens.

This man can s---t lights out when he wants to.

Twolves are a sleeper team, got a shot at a 7 or 8 seed if they can still healthy which is a big if for them especially Rubio.

 

Nov 5, 2015

CJ McCollum and TJ McConnell would make a good back court.

 

Nov 5, 2015

Nah unless he continues to average 25+. He's already pretty established in the league.

gonna be a good game tonight. my boy whiteside vs. the rook. i hope winslow gets some good minutes guarding wiggins.

OKC vs Chicago is the game to watch tonight bruh. Bulls under fire atm, I think they're gonna have a great response.

 

Nov 5, 2015

OKC choked away a game last night against the Raps tho. I got OKC in this one. Gonna be a good game regardless. Rose gotta pick his s--- up soon or he's done in Chitown.

That s--- is all overblown my dude. Windhorst was asked his opinion on the situation. He wasn't reporting anything, just observing from afar. It's easy to forget that Derrick was out for 3 and a half weeks before the season started, not to mention he's still dealing with double vision. Hoiberg wants him to consistently push the ball, but he can't if he can't see well. We're only 5 games into the season and people are coming for this guys head. He averaged 20+ in the playoffs against the Bucks & Cavs, I'll think we'll see that version of him sooner rather than later.

If he stays healthy i dont see why not.
Wall=Best player
Beal=Best Scorer

Gotdamn just thinking bout them two starting in Toronto

 

Nov 5, 2015

Toronto?

 

Nov 5, 2015

honestly haven't even read any reports or anything regarding him leaving. it's just my observation and if i'm the GM, i'd trade him if he gets mildly hurt once more. not worth it if he's gonna play like he is now (i know he'll improve, but if not) and only plays 1/3 of the season or even half.

i really want him to get back to form because i think it's better for basketball, but i don't see it happening

 

Nov 5, 2015

He's definitely improved but it's not like he's coming out of nowhere. He was drafted high, he's just finally meeting expectations.

He's talking about the all star game, I think he forgot Jimmy Buckets has that 2 spot locked up though.

I don't really know his ceiling anymore, but I'm confident he can at least play to the level he was at in the playoffs. I don't think a trade is likely either. Nobody will take on his money if he's hurt like you're saying, but if he plays well then there's really no reason for the Bulls to move him. Everyone in that building wants this to work and believes it will. If he's playing like this in a month, then that's a different story. Patience is key in this situation.

 

Nov 5, 2015

i agree with what you're saying. hard to believe you and some fans can be so patient. it's been a few years!

I speak for a lot of Chicago when I say we've been riding with Derrick since his days at Simeon. We watched him grow and accomplish amazing things in this league at such an early age. If we ever want to truly contend for a title in the near future, we have no choice but to put our faith in him finding his game again. I'm all in with him for better or for worse.

 

Nov 5, 2015

We're talking bout a dude who didnt score more than like 16 ppg over a whole season.. partially cause of injuries, but to put up over 100 in ur teams first 4 games is pretty impressive
Haden't been done since agent zero on the Wiz
While shooting almost 50% from three, right behind curry
None of this is surprising if u watched any of the Wizards playoffs games last couple years, BUT this is first time we seeing it in the reg season
If he puts up anything over 22 by the all star break butler better watch out @Poohdini

 

Nov 5, 2015

Tbh tho lowry prolly getting a starting spot..

 

Nov 5, 2015

I think if we compare them offensively, it's a push. Beal gets the edge in shooting, but Jimmy is much better at driving and getting to the FT line. Jimmy gets the edge IMO because his defense is at an all NBA level. Either way it's safe to say both will be in Toronto.

@Big Mitch Tonight for example, I have no idea what to expect out of him. We're either getting a vintage performance on national tv, or he's gonna go like 1-15. Don't think there's gonna be any in between.
