- Do the Bulls have the worst starting C situation in the East?Plays with energy all day/better defender/better lob threat. Ultimately has limitations cuz of his size but so does Vucevic. Raptors - Poeltl - another 50/50 you could argue but i think if it was game 5 of any important playoff game and a serious head coach had to pick between him and Vucevic to start they'd all take Jakob. Much better defender ...
- Bulls/Wolves - RealGMVucevic can also replace some of the scoring loss of Randle, and he can shoot three pointers if MIN wants to play 5-out with Naz Reid. I have no idea what to expect out of Giddey. Prior to last week, I would have said that the Wolves #2 need was a back up PG, since neither Nickiel Alexander-Walker nor Donte DiVincenzo have done well in the role.
- Chicago rebuild finally happening: offers for LaVine and VucevicI don't think either has positive trade value. Chicago should just buyout Vucevic and let him go where he wants and trade LaVine for anything they can get. I suspect they'll have to add value to move him, but I'd be calling Brooklyn about a LaVine for Simmons swap if the Nets are trying to avoid giving up a lottery pick to Houston again.
