Chisoxfn Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 28, 2015 -> 12:24 PM) He only played most of those guys because injuries forced him to. Asik and Taj were coming together at the same time. I don't recall injuries forcing him to give them minutes. Niko was part of the rotation from the start of the season. When he won rookie of the month, he had an even greater role due to injuries, but he still got minutes. Butler might have gotten some additional minutes due to injuries, but he came through as well. I'm just saying, Bulls have a great track record of drafting under Paxson and Gar and Thibs also should get credit for the record of developing. Their were misses but given where they were picking, what they've done is pretty impressive, imo. With exception of Pax dealing Aldridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't like they weren't getting played / weren't going to get minutes based upon the construction of that lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I cannot imagine how jaded I would be if I was a bball fan in New York right now. Is there a less watchable team than Brooklyn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching rotations yesterday and now close the game was, I didn't see room for him yesterday. Hope tonight is a blow out and we can see him.

He also let Brown score on him fairly easily. His line for the game is decent though. Edited October 29, 2015 by chw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has had a very good game overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) Butler, Rose, Gasol, and Mirotic were all spectacular tonight. Snell, Noah, and Moore were decent.

Mirotic's 3-point shot already looks more efficient than last year's (from these 2 games and the preseason). I can tell he worked on it over the summer. he was onle 30/31% last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kristaps might have been a good Euro player, but he REALLY needs to bulk up if he wants to play with the big boys. He's essentially a taller version of Chris Sale haha.
