Vuc obviously a huge difference maker. Unfortunately now Carter turning in some good games. Had he done that earlier this season it may have saved the Bulls some picks in that trade.

Forbes White Sox evaluation- #14 worth $1.685 Billion
Soxbadger replied to Dick Allen's topic in Pale Hose Talk
If you look at the way Forbes structured their estimate its based on: 9. Portion of franchise's value attributable to revenue shared among all teams. 10. Portion of franchise's value attributable to its city and market size. 11. Portion of franchise's value attributable to its stadium. 12. Portion of franchise's value attributable to its brand. They really arent taking the private finances into account, because a franchise isnt a normal business valuation. There are only X total, only Y available at any time. So the valuations are based on comparing other teams and their figures. When you look at the list, the Sox at 14 makes sense, although you could easily argue they should be higher. Every team lower than them wouldnt really present a better purchasing opportunity. -
Johan Santana wasnt an asset.

Came close a few times through Walgreens, but was finally able to get it today through Cook County. The system is pretty terrible even once your in as the appointments disappear/ reappear randomly. Was able to get 2 at the same site within an hour of each other so not the worst. Im assuming they will schedule the second appointment after you get the first. If anyone is using the Cook County site, you basically just have to click instantly as soon as it appears. Once in the waiting room you really have no idea when you are going to get picked (the first browser actually got into appointments second). Once you can pick the appointment, you actually have to click dates, they dont automatically generate. Then half the times you pick will say not available, but if you keep trying more show up. Some were available over 30 minutes later, so definitely seems like they are increasing availability.

Yeah I assume its just a luck/dedication. I went on at 12 based on your information and unfortunately the app isnt even working right now. Probably are getting overwhelmed because its 1C today. Just a horrible system, and I can only imagine how someone who cant sit in front of a computer all day would feel.

When I try it always says none in 25 miles. I just tried right now. (It says available but when I click I get a system error on phone. On website it says none)
-
Im finally eligible and I feel like this is one of the dumbest things I have ever been apart of. I really cant believe that the expectation is that I refresh multiple websites every minute to hopefully get a chance.
-
Worst fear was always giving up a high 1st rounder in a pretty loaded draft. Im willing to give them a few games, but when the trade was made I was worried, especially next years class.

Coby's value is directly tied to his ability to put a round sphere through a hoop. Until he can do that consistently it doesnt matter what position he plays. His problem is he shoots under 35% too often to be relied on to do anything. In college he shot 42%, in the pros he is at 44%. In the last 10 games he shot 33% or worse 6 times, he shot 50% or better 2x. Its hard to see a future for him if he doesnt dramatically increase his shooting percentage.
-
Yeah I think they have to be submitted by 3 est. So there can be a slight backlog of the information being released.

Lauri has the same issue. Plus teams trading for Ball arent going to want to pay a huge premium to then have a RFA.
-
Yeah the coin flip is the worst. But I really think if the Bulls went crazy, they could have gotten Luka.
-
Im hoping somehow they get Brogdon instead of Ball, but I feel like they used all of their capital for Vuc. Now that they have Vuc, Ball makes more sense because you have mroe offensive threats and a PG can make a difference. How good can they be if you have to ask? Mo is like Lauri, except for not as well regarded. Maybe they are going for the all international big man squad.
-
Woj reported it so id say yes. I think you are about to get your boy Ball for Lauri.
-
No because I thought Carter could be something and it hurts too much to think what if the Bulls tried a crazy offer for Luka
-
More Bulls stuff allegedly: Wizards receive: Daniel Gafford Chandler Hutchinson Bulls receive: Troy Brown Jr. Mo Wagner
-
Too bad they never had a chance at Brogdon/Sabonis, that would have been worth overpaying for.
-
If Vuc was 25 Id be fine with this. But at 30 it makes no sense and seems like making a trade to make a trade. This years first and Carter would have been my max offer.

2020/2021 NCAA Basketball Thread

Wisconsin game was just not what I expected, they always lose to UNC early. So now its hilarious that Wisconsin will be only 1 or 2 teams to ever beat UNC in the first round. -

There really is nothing unpredictable here. Pace is a horrible GM, believing he was going to be different was the equivalent of believing in magic. When they signed Dalton with no cap it didn't make sense, but Pace always gets his QB. -

Disney flexing huge on streaming. They could easily just put NFL at normal prices to grab users to start. -

Im not sure why people are shocked that one of the worst GMs is making bad decisions. I guess the silver lining is that had he gotten Wilson he probably stays as GM, now maybe we can move on next year. -
Vaughn has always reminded me of Bagwell. Who was a guy that a team regretfully traded.

If you arent the con, youre the mark.

So GME back to doing strange things again.
