The games where I had to watch MCW and jerian grant play. Woof Grant started a playoff game and looked like he has never played basketball before.

I'm convinced that Jerian Grant made $7.7M NBA dollars off this dunk: Also, everyone is forgetting Marquis Teague. Who GarPax took despite the fact that Thibs was begging for Draymond and the fact that Draymond (and players like Sato and Middleton) fit GarPax's drafting MO (more advanced than one and dones) and were on the board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was bad - but he never started. As much as I'd like to knock Gar Pax, drafting players over their tenure was pretty low on the list of reasons to dislike them. And missing on the 29th overall draft pick is not such a big deal, especially when you think of the Butler/Taj picks. Obviously the fact that they ignored Thibs who wanted Draymond - that hurts.

Stinky Stanky Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Identifying a point guard has been a problem since forever with this team. Passed up HOF Walt Frazier to draft Clem Haskins, a SG they tried and failed to convert to PG. Drafted the terrible Tate Armstrong by passing on Mo Cheeks. So it's not only Gar/Pax. Since the guys that played with Jordan (Kerr, Armstrong, Paxson, Harper) didn't have PG responsibilities most of the time, is the best PG they've ever had Guy Rodgers from Season One?

Good penetrator, but not an instinctive passer once he got inside. Almost as tough as Sloan. Speaking of Derrick, this was not a triumph for the FO. He basically fell on their heads from out of the sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They drafted one superstar, and gave up on another, in how many years? Drafting or acquiring just one single superstar in their entire tenure in a superstar league is not good.

I’m getting other better players around him who I think I’m building around. If Lavine keeps going and getting better awesome - worse case I move him next year. Really just want to see Bulls find one real good big and one real good point guard to go with Lavine and Williams plus a first rounder next year.
