Had a 20/20 game last year. Gotta have some talent to do that. Love that he made a Rodman post on Twitter when he found out he's coming here..... Probably the best forward available right now. I dig it. Lots of versatility on this team. I was hoping for an Ibaka type to do the frontcourt things that Vucevic can't do and this guy is 6'7". The signing can't hurt, I guess.

Stinky Stanky Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Apparently Tony Bradley is their "Ibaka type." I don't know him. Any good, if someone who is familiar with him sees this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any good, if someone who is familiar with him sees this? I don't know much outside of what the numbers tell me Per 36 minutes Ibaka averaged 17 points and 10 rebounds while Bradley averaged 17/12. Bradley is also just 24 and still could have some more upside..... He had 1 game last year where he played more than 30 minutes and all he did was score 18 points on 8 of 8 shooting and grabbed 11 rebounds. Also had a 7 for 7 game against the Bulls. Looks to be a solid backup big. I'd still prefer Alize or even DeRozan at the 4 if Williams misses time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything he shoots is under the basket thus the shooting %. He looks like just what you said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scs787 Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.rotoballer.com/player-news/demar-derozan-could-move-to-power-forward/939540%3famp=1 Looks like the DeRozan to PF thing might happen while Williams is out. A quick "DeMar DeRozan Power Forward" search just told me that DeRozan, and the team defense, thrived with DD at the 4. Teams with two offensive BIGS are few and far between these days, and the modern 4 is more like DeRozan or Lebron. I'd start Ball-Caruso-Lavine-DeRozan-Vuc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will eventually get the money, probably minus some fines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinky Stanky Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Denzel signed with CLE for cheap non-guaranteed money. I always liked the guy, hope he gets some playing time and can continue his career. In the USA, of course. Oh well. if not he's already made 5 times what I did in my working life. Good luck, kid.

Best passer on the team, nice hands on defense, shot the three a little bit. Overall no loss, you're right. But I liked him for no reason at all.

ron883 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) Denzel embodies the typical Garpax pick. "Safe" pick from a big named program, very little upside and little athleticism. Good riddance to Denzel. He was absolute trash. Edited October 3, 2021 by ron883 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chi Town Sox Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) Preseason/Cavs or not, No Bulls team the last 4 years would put up this many points in a game. 36 assists which is more than any game last year. This is a different team. Edited October 6, 2021 by Chi Town Sox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scs787 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Yeah, that was fun. I wish all of Matt Thomas, Alize, and Green were taller. I've grown really fond of Thomas as a Reddick type but the Bulls are just so loaded at the guard position that I'm not sure he's gonna find the minutes. Dude can flat out shoot the 3 ball....To steal a football term, Alize is just a ballhawk. 11 rebounds today in 17 minutes. He may struggle to defend so bigger guys though, though in today's game there aren't too too many BIGS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
