Billy Donovan to Texas?

You have to at least call.

Donovan is going to take some of the heat for the Bulls failure (right or wrong). Could be a nice landing spot for him as opposed to a 2-4 year Bulls' rebuild. And, the Bulls new GM may not give him a choice.

If Texas is smart, they call Rick Pitino

Haliburton has 40 assists and 0 turnovers in his last 3 games.

Pistons and Pacers should have some awesome backcourts soon.

Damn.....Amare Stoudemire arrested for hitting his daughter? WTH.

Can someone explain how the Bulls were a 1.5 pt favorite tonight at Minny?

Timberwolves had an easy 24 point win.

Bulls giving up 150 to a T-Wolves team minus Towns & Gobert is definitely no bueno.

Ahhh... that explaines the line.

I'm getting the feeling the Bulls are giving up. Makes you wonder if there are rumblings of trades or firings in the locker room.

it's more than time for the Bulls to start over

Bold take: He’s a great player.

I feel he's going to need to average near that to get the MVP again.

You’re right. The NBA likes to take turns. I think it’s Luka’s turn this year, but Tatum could win if Celts end up with best record.

No need for Alvarado to hide in the corner of the court to keep Giannis from seeing him on this one.

Suns are selling for $4billion? And to think, Giannis and Luka own them for free.

This is low hanging fruit but very well played

Also, Mat Ishbia, the new Suns owner, paid about 20% of Mel Tucker's extension. So with that green and white shaded judge of talent, I look forward to the Suns offering a max to Draymond Green and probably an overpay for Gary Harris next year.

Jamal Cain has been showing out in the G League. Just got called back up to the Heat for the game tonight against the Bulls.

According to The Athletic, Zach LeVine and DeMar DeRozan aren't getting along. Additionally, LeVine is having a disconnect with Bulls coaching and management. There have been numerous meetings between the players, between LeVine and the coaches, etc.

Making it even more fun: LeVine is in the first year of the max deal he just signed.

Headliner nominees for the next Basketball Hall of Fame class:

Dwyane Wade, Dirk Nowitzki, Gregg Popovich.

ESPN says the Hornets are negotiating a new contract with Miles Bridges, who has yet to play this season because he allegedly beat the mother of his children right in front of the kids.

Criminal charges ended up being dropped and a large financial settlement was reached between Bridges and the woman. Bridges almost certainly will face a long suspension by the league -- similar cases have gotten 25 games or more -- but he then would be able to play again. The ESPN report said Bridges would agree to counseling and community service.
