thing with niko is he should rarely play the 3 because he loses the advantage of having him draw a big out of the paint and the average 3 can stop nikos drives with ease while a 4 will have difficulty doing so -- which is why he draws so many fouls on them
taj should really be the back up c and niko the back up pf from here on out -

watching niko play since the all star break has been like the first moments of when the drugs kicking in
hes a weird stretch 4
not really a pure shooter like dirk
not really a ball handler like kukoc
but he gets to the lane and has great court vision he really sees the floor really well -

Haven't been catching too many games lately, but I saw the 2nd half tonight. Has Snell been quietly elevating his game?

Tony Snell has shown much improvement in his game since he cracked the rotation. 3 point range, mid range, driving to the bucket, defense. Working out with his HS teammate K. Leonard over the Summer is finally starting to pay off -
Snell just needs confidence and be assertive on a consistent basis.

Do we have enough "playoff" minutes for Noah, Gasol, Mirotic, & Taj?
It seems like they all play better individually when given max minutes. -
no doubt the ? tricky you got 4 players sharing two spots that all deserve 30 plus and whats weird is how none of these guys duplicate each other strong point
its so thibs to talk about effort while underselling the necessity of talent/production (e.g playing bogans over korver and hinrich over anybody else) even when they werent the most talented they still won by sacrificing themselves and their bodies to playing d and chasing after every loose ball -- it was their trademark/identity but now the roster is the deepest/talented its been since he been here
personally i think thibs prefers it how he had it where he can play checkers -- where youre not good enough to get minutes from the guy ahead of you until the guy ahead of you gets injured and now plays 40 minutes -- hes gonna have to play chess now whether he likes it or not though because thats what the roster calls for as well as what playoff basketball is all about
adjustments
bulls need all four bigs hopefully thibs puts them in where they match up best -- ignore starting and finishing minutes go 100% for match up -- closing with noah at c and niko at pf would be ideal though -
Niko can play some 3, I would have him take Dunleavy's closing the game minutes, if Dunleavy isn't effective.
-
No ?
-
the bucks have a bunch of guys that can deal with strech 4s if the bulls get them in the playoffs they will need to take advantage with taj
if its the wizards -- niko
but this is thibs though so he will probably do opposite and hope for the best rather then to adjust what the game is dictating -

Good ? .
Three surgeries to his knees, yet he keeps fighting to get back up & suit up for the Chicago Bulls. His heart & love for the city should never be questioned. -
for the record i should have worded my ? differently
it does take a certain kind of drive an inexplicable obsession to put yourself through the physical and mental grind that rose injuries have put him in -- i was more speaking on his play on the court and the level of ? indecisiveness he has played with that hasnt been there in the past
just play the position
point guard
drive kick, create openings and most importantly stop shooting 3s and i will take my chances with any team in the east this year (wont put any money up on it though) -
good to see my dawg Rose back

@1:45
lmao
i dont understand how the answer is anything but niko (or rose for that matter)
niko can score 20+ on any given night and can be a matchup nightmare on the offensive end -- hes the definition of x factor but they pick a guy who cant catch the ball and another who should be retired -
Playoff start Saturday ? barely talkin
-
Better get they ? together
Noah
Rose
Gibson
Kirk
...all better be healthy by Saturday
Rose pulling himself out the game last night after 10mins was discouraging -
Need that sweep so we can be rested for Cleveland
-
Playoff time
Throwback Thursday
-
We are 13-3 when Kirk doesn't play
