southsider2k5 Posted October 17, 2013 Author Share Posted October 17, 2013 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 10:37 AM) It was the 29th pick of the draft. Of the 2012 draft. Look at the hot garbage that went behind him. What do you expect. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_NBA_draft And with their history of turning low picks into gold, I am good with them missing once in a while when drafting there.

Kyyle23 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Teague was "best available" at the time. He didnt make sense for the Bulls, but like Steve pointed out, it wasnt like they missed out on something big. If they can flip him for a pick or a player that Thibs can use, that would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can flip him for a pick or a player that Thibs can use, that would be great IMO he is still a good option as a backup PG for some teams. He lacks offensive ability at this point and seems to not know the offense very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No s***. Look at Taj, Butler and Asik (and hell, even Mirotic who has ascended to legend status and they should deal before he comes over and proves to be a chucker who can't play D). We could even bring up Snell given how nice a fit he's looking to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenksismyhero Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Yeah, you guys are right that there wasn't a lot else to choose from, but Teague just never struck me as an NBA player. Guys like Taj and Butler you could tell would be at minimum decent 8-10 minute role players because of their size/athleticism and basketball IQ. Teague doesn't really have anything that sets him apart, on top of still being lost while on the court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) Jeff Taylor was the rumored pick and best available after Perry Jones went off. He would have been a lot better pick but you can't win them all. Not like he's too great anyways. Edited October 17, 2013 by Buehrle>Wood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I'll defend Teague. College PG to pro PG is a lot harder than other transitions, and he came in as a 19 year old (He's only 20 now). His learning curve was going to be a lot higher but he has gotten better. Problem is bulls don't have time for projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 09:14 AM) I'm not sure I care about such things. Based on the Heat/Bulls playoff series, at least for now his job is "when you get a wide open 3 don't pull a Kyle Korver and don't bleeping miss every one!". That is gonna be Dunleavy's job, I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, they were running the Korver run the baseline back and forth through a million screens until you get open play for Snell last night.

Steve9347 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I threw this together because I wanted one. As you can see, I already bought one, but I need nine more so they'll actually print it.

Steve9347 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Derrick is unstoppable. He hit 4 threes and had a ton of dimes and went through Roy Hibbert like 6 times tonight. 32 points and 9 dimes in 31 minutes. The only thing that will stop this team is health.

Unsurprising response is unsurprising. If the Pacers can make a series out of the Heat, the Bulls (if healthy, f***) will crush them. Also, Kirk has a concussion, Joakim "glass" Noah has a groin, and Jimmy Buckets is struggling with knee s***. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
