We whine about the Rockets not getting any shine, Raps on top of the east and I forgot Toronto had a team.
Kris Dunn has really improved. He's a serviceable rotation player with an unknown upside. Playing for Thibs last year was probably the worst possible scenario for him (or any rookie for that matter).
Nikola mirotic is on the trade block...dude prob plays no D but he shooting lights out and better than Ryno atm
they're in canada, perennial ECF flop vs the Cavs, have pretty much the same core for years now, lowry/derozan choke in the playoffs, i don't think it's unreasonable that no one cares about them. maybe if OG becomes a stud then they'll get the respect they deserve. i've always said he could become a less athletic john wall, but with a better shot. they have extremely similar physical traits, and game-wise, he's not too much different from a younger john wall. i think most scouts said his floor could be devin harris, and his ceiling was john wall. he has really been playing well this year. if lavine can get back to his previous level or better, and lauri keeps getting better (i'm pretty sure most thought he would not translate to the NBA but he's probably been the 5th best rookie this year), the bulls won't have looked so foolish after the butler trade after all.
