He can't read but thanks for trying

Perhaps Scott Drew could read it to him over the phone during one of their nightly chats.

After Scott's trips to the brothel

Nobody wants DeRozen. I think he is still a top 35-40 player in the NBA but can't find a home. If you could get him at $20-25M, he seems to be a better value than Harden at $35M.

By all accounts he's a great team guy, always plays with 100% effort and a smart player on the court. Just strange he can't find a home.

I guess, paired with the fact that LaVine and Vuc are untradable, this speaks volumes about the Bulls' FO skills to evaluate talent. The Bulls built an "all-in", championship or bust team around 3 players nobody in the NBA likes.

Rumor, or maybe fact, is he turned down like 2yr/ $40M from the Bulls earlier this year. I don't think the Bulls have any offer for him now as they begin their tanking.... youth movement.

[WhiteTrash]

Bronny got 4yr, $8M contract. How much is TK going to get? 4Yr $10M?

TK came in at 4Yr / $9M. Not too far off.

And people thought I was hating on the Lakers. I was just using Bronny as a measuring stick (just the facts).

Isn't he the deeply Christian guy that covered up rapes at Baylor and moralized about affairs while having his own extramarital affair?

Oh wait, no, that was Ken Starr. I get the Baylor faux Christians mixed up.

3 years/$74 million with the Kings.

Great city, mediocre city, great city, now another mediocre city.  Hopefully he can get a token one year with the Clippers to end his career in a high in his hometown.

In basketball terms, not sure how he fits with the style the Kings play, but veteran star leadership to help Barnes guide Sabonis, Fox, and Murray can't hurt

Kolek is 10x the basketball player Bronny is. So using Bronny as your measuring stick, Kolek should've got a much larger contract.

  always seeing the good in people while painting with that broad brush.  maybe if you stayed closer to home, check yourself, then re post.  don't think any of these showered with their daughters or took in millions without paying their "fair shares"

once again you continue to reveal your idiocy

In my humble opinion, no school represents the true values of Christianity better than Baylor

So now the Bulls are officially in tear-down-and-rebuild mode. And that's probably long overdue.

The really good news for Bulls fans is that the team is reducing prices for tickets, concessions and parking to reflect expectations of less competitiveness on the court.

These are all free will transactions that the public doesn't have to engage in if they don't want to pay.

Beats watching them compete for the play-in-game

True. Nobody should b!tch about, poke fun at or comment on anything about which they have a choice. Which means social media, including Scoop, cease to exist. Probably not the worst thing.

Yes. Trotting out the tired old sports-writer's trope of "BUT THE TICKET PRICES!!!" is so much better.

Yes.  Finally.  Apparently they received my memo.

Good for DeRozen. Good for the Bulls.

Looking strictly at draft positions, TK's deal makes sense.
