Supposedly he had offers for "better jobs" so if anything it's an endorsement of the Bulls young talent. 

I'm not giving up on Markkanen yet so hopefully a real coach can get him going. 

I still think he has a chance to be the best player on the current roster. 

It could be OKC is strapped for cash and he headed for higher ground.  And what you posted.

Are people giving up on Coby as a PG? 

Certainly not comparing the 2 but Donovan did well with Rus at PG. 

 

All that said, it sure would be nice to have him in a Lou Williams role. 

I know a guy who is giving up on Coby at PG.  Oh Hell, it's me.

Watching Thunder highlights, ya know who I'd be totally ok with Lauri becoming??? A taller Danillo Galinari. I see Galinari doing a lot of things I think Lauri should be doing.

I could be wrong here, but Lauri is a free agent in 2021, so hypothetically speaking can't the Bulls sign 2 max guys and then go over the cap to resign Lauri? 

Dream scenario would be Coby and Lauri both panning out and Lavines 3 ball being legit. Then you add in AD and Giannis. 

 

White-Lavine-Giannis-AD-Lauri

He could start by geting a rebound.  Or learning to play in traffic without getting the ball chopped away by the guards.  The Gallinari II post is right on.  He ain't gonna be the new Dirk.

It's amazing what Jimmy Butler and the Heat are doing. Lakers are by far the more talented team (with 2 top 5 players leading the way) and they are making this a series.

 

Butler absolutely deserves MVP regardless if the Heat lose the series.
