I know the Bulls won't do anything so it's not necessarily a suggestion. But Fizdale is a way better coach than Hoiberg, right?

The Bulls need to trade Niko before he wins them too many games.

ok i know i said this a few days ago but this Rockets team is legitimately incredible right now. They have not lost a single game with Chris Paul playing. The team is clicking incredibly well. The backcourt rotation with Harden, Paul, and Eric Gordon is working ridiculously well. Harden is having an insane year and Paul clicks with this team so well. Clint Capela took his game up another level too, dude just had 24 points and 20 rebounds tonight. He's actually number 7 on Basketball Reference's MVP tracker list (which goes purely off an algorithm from stats). The team is also actually playing defense this year and doing it really well. Luc Mbah Moute and PJ Tucker were super underrated pickups that add a ton to the team.
this team can compete with the warriors easily if they stay healthy. dont sleep on them.

wild that if you replace "rockets" with "bulls" and "chris paul" with "nikolai mirotic" that post still works

Let's walk this back a bit - both the Celtics and Sixers were without their best players. Also can't wait for Niko to be traded for a pick the Bulls can't use until 2022.

I will admit that Dunn has looked better than I figured he would, but a lot of that is on volume shooting. He's easily the best PG on the team, though.

I've been surprised at how competent he is defensively.

You think the Heat, Sixers or Pacers have the same kind of depth as the Hornets? You checked out our rookies by chance? They're currently 6th place at 5-4 with two rookies getting significant minutes and MKG and Batum out. They've beaten the Bucks and the Grizzlies. Scored 126 on the Bucks even. Sure, Dwight could wear down, but he's an absolute monster right now. You funny. What's going on with your Hornets? They have two more wins than the Bulls right now.

As soon as I started talking them up, they started shitting the bed... hard. They're fucking awful. They should have gotten better, but seems they didn't. *paper bag*

Maybe this is just who the Bulls are now? Maybe they're like last year's Miami team who started out super shitty and before turning it around and just missed the playoffs by one game, only because BKN decided to bench all of their starters on the last night of the season and basically give that 8th seed to the Bulls?
I'd rather see that than a full tank season from the Bulls, largely because I don't trust they'd do the right thing with a top 5 pick anyway.

Woj cites Utah as a possible destination for Mirotic, which makes sense given the trouble they have when trying to play Favors and Gobert together.
What gets this done for the Bulls? Is the expiring Favors contract and a future (likely protected) first rounder enough?
I also like Mirotic in Portland as another floor spacer to open the floor for Dame and CJ, while also leaving the middle open for Nurkic. It's the same principle as the rumored Ryan Anderson trade that didn't happen last summer, which I didn't hate as much as most, but Niko is basically a cheaper/better version of Anderson at this point.

Portland already has several dozen versions of Mirotic (Aminu, Leonard, Davis, Collins, Vonleh, Swanigan, etc) but Utah sounds about right.

One or two of those would likely go to Chicago in my hypothetical deal, likely Davis since his $6.3 mil expiring contract would be attractive to the Bulls in terms of salary matching. Vonleh is also a restricted free agent this year, but he and Davis work exclusively under the basket.
Swanigan is a cool story and works hard, but at 6'9", he is an undersized Center and just doesn't look like an NBA level athlete. Collins has shown flashes, but he's probably 2-3 years away from being a reliable contributor. He still hasn't adjusted to the NBA 3-point line, and his shooting was supposedly one of his best attributes coming out of college.
Don't even get me started on Leonard. He's trash.
Aminu is decent, but he's probably better suited as a backup combo forward. His shooting has been decent this year (40% on 3s), but he's every bit as streaky as Niko so I'd wager that number comes down quite a bit by the end of the year.

I’m wrong on this, I know I’m wrong on this, but I’m not entirely convinced that dinosaurs existed. I’m not. I’ve come across some weird websites in my Google searches. For example, the word dinosaur didn’t exist until like 1842. There was no word for dinosaur.

I really like how well the Bulls/Timberwolves trade worked out for both teams. LaVine has been pretty impressive in his first two games and it's pretty crazy to see Minnesota tied for 3rd in the West
