Should the Bulls Target a Wing in the NBA Draft? (w/ Corey Tulaba)

Swish Theory's Larry Golden returns to break down the guard class in this year's draft. We go through Reed Sheppard, Rob Dillingham, Stephon Castle, Nikola Topic, Isaiah Collier, Jared McCain and Devin Carter. Larry get into why Isaiah Collier isn't getting the attention he deserves in this class. We question the fit and interest of the Bulls in Rob Dillingham. Is Stephon Castle transitioning to point guard a wise move? Also, Edward pens another love letter to Bulls fans to explain why they need to get excited about Devin Carter. We also get Larry's thoughts on what direction the Bulls should look to go in with this class, our confidence in Peter Patton being able to rebuild a prospect's jumpshot, and much more. 

No Ceilings' Corey Tulaba returns to break down the wing talent in this year's class. First, we get into the recent rumors of the Bulls eyeing a tradeup in the draft. Is it worth it for the Bulls to move additional assets in this type of class? Then, we discuss Matas Buzelis, a rumored Bulls target and whether he has legitimate two-way upside. Corey explains why he is high on Dalton Knecht and why he has one of the safest fits in this class. We also talk Tristan Da Silva, and wonder if he's being overlooked with his smart, versatile, and experienced game. We wonder why there are no rumors about Cody Williams and the Bulls despite him being the prototypical AK draft prospect. We get into a few more G-League Ignite players, specifically Ron Holland and Corey's emphatic stance on why Holland should not be the Bulls target in this class. All that, and much more. 

Can the Bulls land a promising prospect for their frontcourt in the 2024 NBA Draft? No Ceiling's Tyler Rucker joins us to break down several of the top big men in this class. We discuss if Donovan Clingan is worth moving up for. We get into Kyle Filipowski, and whether the lack of excitement about his game is justified. We discuss two high risk, high reward players in Yves Missi and Ke'lel Ware, and Tyler tells us which player is more likely to pay dividends. We also touch the elephant in the room with Zach Edey. Can his game translate to the next level?

After a brief break, we're back in time for draft season! CHGO's Big Dave joins us for reaction to the NBA Draft Lottery. We try to figure out how the Bulls should approach the draft at #11, and if any trades could make sense. Can the Bulls move Zach LaVine for draft capital? We also discuss a few prospects who the team should consider and their fit. We also express frustration at the Bulls missed attempts to acquire more draft picks at the trade deadline. Then we get into the rumors of the Bulls working on a new contract with DeMar DeRozan. We explain why it's time for the Bulls and DeRozan to split amicably and move forward with a youth movement. We wrap today's show by going way off topic and giving our thoughts on the memorable Drake and Kendrick lamar rap beef. 

The Chicago Bulls are headed back to the Play-In Tournament. We reacted to the last stretch of games and gave our predictions for how we think the team will do in the tournament. We also talked about how the team's minutes load is adding up and whether it's realistic or not for veterans to rest in the last six games. Also, we continued to give Ayo Dosunmu some love and discussed whether or not he could make another jump next season.

Corey Tulaba of No Ceilings returns for reaction to the Bulls comeback win over Sacramento. We discussed the development of Coby White following his 37-point performance, and continue to wonder whether he can take another step in his development in the future. Then, we continued our discussion of the play-in tournament and whether the Bulls are giving us more optimism that they'll get one of the playoff seeds. Then, we got Corey's thoughts on the development of Julian Phillips and Onuralp Bitim. Finally, we wrapped the show with some college basketball discussion, as Corey dives into the top prospects in this class, players who could potentially be a fit for the Bulls, and more. 

The Bulls continue to be up and down following a loss to the Pistons and a win against the Cavs. We discussed where the team is headed for the remainder of the season. Will they come out of the play-in tournament? Following Onuralp Bitim's solid performance against Cleveland, we looked at how the Bulls are winning on the margins with young talent. We're also still salty the Bulls passed on deals at the trade deadline to move off veteran pieces. Then, on this week's "Project Pat" segment, we reacted to Patrick Williams season ending injury. We wonder if Williams will end up signing a team friendly deal or if the Bulls will have competition from other teams.

Full reaction to the Bulls uneventful trade deadline. We discuss the potential moves the Bulls had on the table with Golden State and Philadelphia involving Caruso, Drummond and DeRozan. Were the Bulls being irresponsible by not making these trades? Then, we tried to make sense of AK's comments and trade expectations at his presser. This led to us wondering if any recent NBA teams have been successful at using a strategy similar to the Bulls by treading competitive waters. We also have a converstion about Coby White and whether the Bulls are failing to maximize his play on a team-friendly contract. Then, we tried to figure out if the Bulls front office has a strength that can make fans optimistic for what's to come in the future. 

You know the vibes....Big Dave and C-Dub are back for our annual Trade Deadline episode. We start with a temperature check on the Bulls 24-27 record, and whether it's where we thought the team would be. We get into a discussion on the front office to see if we're still good with "letting AK cook". We continue to be marveled by Coby White's breakout season, leading to the question of whether Coby can be a franchise player and how the team could build around him. We transition into Trade Deadline discussion and wondered whether there's more urgency than ever for the Bulls to make moves on Thursday. Are the Bulls overvaluing their assets and potentially passing on reasonable deals? We went through the trade value of Caruso, DeRozan, and Drummond, and gave our predictions for trades, and talked about the deals we would love to see in an ideal world. 

CHGO's Mark K joins us after the Bulls road win against the Charlotte Hornets. Coby White puts in another great game, and we put his breakout in perspective and discuss the amount of responsibility he has picked up this season. Then, we shift to the much-maligned Nikola Vucevic, and why games like this show the nuance in his value to the Bulls. Next, we reacted to a report that suggests the Bulls will stand pat at the trade deadline, and wondered if it's more urgent than ever for the Bulls to make moves in the next few days. We closed with a discussion on the mysterious nature of Patrick Williams injury and what we're looking forward to seeing from Julian Phillips in his absence.
