farmteam Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 So most mocks seem to point to Jenkins or Barton (assuming the Bulls stay at 29), though a few still have Teague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/nba/story/_...-pick-pau-gasol Gasol would seemingly not be an option for the Bulls unless there is a 3rd team involved. Even then it wouldnt really make sense. Article mentions Artest is available, I dont believe the Bulls would consider him under any circumstances.

Steve9347 Posted June 27, 2012 Author Share Posted June 27, 2012 I loved Ron Artest a lot when he was here. He's had a tumultuous journey since being traded, and under no circumstances would he be welcomed back to Chicago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 10:38 PM) I don't, really. He got so frustrating to watch giving up point after point on defense and then heaving up shots to try to make up for it. He sometimes did, but against good teams he would be fully exploited playing defense and couldn't get a good look on offense. Except, that really didn't happen his last few years here. Or do I have to bring out the 82games stats for defense as well as the fact that Ben had the 2nd least shot attempts for someone averaging 20ppg his last year here. He was only 2nd in the league to Dwight Howard. But continue on with your bias...I think I have a good Ben debate in here with me. BTW, even if the Bulls didn't want Ben who is better than Korver and Brewer, that draft pick would've been worth it as they need to stockpile assets and get rid of deadweight.

Will you quit bringing up that awful stat about the 20 point average? Why in god's name would you completely ignore that many of those players scored considerably more than 20 points? It's not even accurate, Paul Pierce and Devin Harris both averaged at least 20 PPG while taking fewer shots than Gordon the last time he did it.

soxfan49 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I'm not really an NBA guy, but if New Orleans drafts Tyler Zeller and Anthony Davis, and Eric Gordon is healthy next year, you have to figure that they'll win at least 35 games next year, right? That's not good by any stretch but much better than the mess they were this past season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I dont know how long he worked there, but he definitely worked there. And in an interview he said it was for the discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHarris1 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Vin Parise @VinParise According to league sources, the Chicago Bulls are drafting Tyshawn Taylor from Kansas tonight with the 29th pick -- backup for Derrick Rose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I dont hate it, I dont love it. He most likely will be a solid role player (good defense, solid PG), but ideally I would have hoped the Bulls went for either a combo guard or a SG/SF who could shoot and do something off the dribble.

I hope the other teams see this Tweet, so they don't try to draft him with any of the first 28 picks and realize he is already gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Listen. I'm not going to make this warning more then once. If people want to talk at TalkBulls they can, if they don't, they don't have to. This thread is open for discussion of all NBA related things (Bulls or Non Bulls). Anymore discussion or this self moderation, everyone go here, needs to be cut-out. Soxtalk is what it is and it has great sports discussion (not just baseball). If people want to talk about the Bulls in this thread, then they are 100% entitled to do so (and no one should tell them otherwise). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 The hard part about 29 is you are depending on what other people do. Its so hard to try and mock 28 picks to get a real sense of what the Bulls will have a shot at. The biggest problem with Tyshawn is whether he can play SG with Rose. If he can, it actually could be an ideal pick, hes a little shorter than you would want, but he is considered a good defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 So I take it all the trade Deng or Noah talks is over and we are just going to continue with this core and hope Rose can carry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Face it, none of the deals anyone has talked about involving either of those 2 really make sense for the other teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I think some Noah deals could make sense, the problem is then having to replace Noah. If the Bulls were going to take a risk, you could move Noah, try and get a big at 29. I just dont see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
