The CHGO Bulls crew discuss the rumors that if Minnesota Timberwolves GM Matt Lloyd lands the Chicago Bulls lead executive job, he will hire Micah Nori as the next Bulls head coach. Lloyd and Nori have worked well together in Minnesota for several years, with Nori even filling in for Chris Finch as acting head coach for the Wolves in the 2024 NBA Playoffs. Does Nori have a sufficient resume and the right character to lead a Bulls rebuild and young roster? Peck and Big Dave analyze the hypothetical pairing in this CHGO Bulls minipod!    Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The CHGO Bulls crew discuss a report that the Chicago Bulls pursued Denver Nuggets rising star Peyton Watson at the deadline, and could do so again in free agency this summer. Jake Fischer reported that the Bulls and Lakers inquired about Watson’s availability at this season’s trade deadline, but were rebuffed by the Nuggets. Will things change this summer as Watson is due for a big payday and Denver’s books are already stacked? Peck and Big Dave weigh the likelihood of a new Bulls front office pitching big names like Watson or Mark Williams in free agency. Or, will new management look to add draft capital by taking unwanted contracts from salary cap-stressed teams? Plus, the guys react to the latest action in the first round of the NBA Playoffs.

The CHGO Bulls crew discuss the NBA’s new proposal for Draft Lottery reform and its impact on the Chicago Bulls rebuild. The new system, being called the “3-2-1 lottery”, has support from a majority of NBA teams according to Shams Charania’s report on Tuesday. Peck, Big Dave and Will Gottlieb weigh the pros and cons the new system could have on the Bulls as they begin a rebuilding phase. If the Bulls stay true to their organizational identity and refuse to “tank”, could they avoid being one of the relegation teams at the bottom of the standings next season? Can they land in that 4th through 10th in the lottery sweet spot? Plus, the guys discuss the potential negative impact it could have on the league’s truly bad teams that aren’t tanking.

Peck, Big Dave and Will Gottlieb analyze the updated list, and the seemingly quick progression in the Bulls’ search.
