Yeah, I might be actually concerned if he was talking us up as a serious contender. And/but I love that him and others like him will continue to keep that chip on our guys' collective shoulder growing.

Wouldn't that depend on Ressler's willingness to go over the cap? We own both Cam and Dre's bird rights. 

I do agree that it's tomorrows problem.

Ressler isn't going over the cap THAT far. We are already something like a projected $8 to 9m over the cap next year with only 10 or 11 players under contract. With Delon, Dgieng, and Cooper not even included.

I think at the end there he basically says we are the #6 team in the East.  (Not better than the Bucks, Nets, Sixers, the Heat or the Bulls.)  Wish I could take your money from you and bet that they will finish the #5 seed or better this year, Chuck.  The Bulls, lmao.

The Bulls,

They are in trouble. The bench is awful, if a starter goes down, bye bye.

[RandomFan]

The Bulls with DeRozan are better than the Hawks y'all.

With all due respect, Mr. Barkley and his turtle waxed head can shut it.

I don't do the hate on Luka thing on here because he's a terrific player and a good dude. So this isn't Luka hate. Honest question: did Luka look fat to anyone else? It isn't like he was looking like Dwight out there with big shoulders and biceps. He looked like he put on 20 pounds of pure fat in the offseason.

I remember this came up last year.  It seems like Luka lets himself go in the off-season.  He plays his way back into shape.  Glad we have Trae.  I think Trae’s mindset is more positive.  Better teammate than Luka.

I said it in the live chat....so yeah. It seems to be his thing to start every season.

Agree, there's no need to do the hate thing.  No point to it.  Weight/size seemed about the same as last year to me.  But he looked fat then too.  Played well despite it.

However, that's not a good thing.  Why put roadblocks onto your own path by choosing not to be in optimal shape?  He's young, so he's getting away with it.  Playing a dangerous game though 'cause if injuries happen this won't help his recovery.

He’s prolly thinkin Chuck was a top 50 player of all time, 75, and fat throughout, round mound of rebound.

Excited to listen to McM talk about how our depth allows guys to not have to pace themselves, but to go all out for all of their minutes. I've dreamed for years, not even kidding, of a roster with this kind of depth for the express purpose of seeing what could be achieved with a legit two-unit rotation, and 10-12 seeing the floor every game instead of 8-9.

This is how I've killed teams for yrs in nba2k...

People were wondering why I always blew them out before the game was over no matter who they had.

My team was always fresher and capable of the 3 & D. Ahead of my time I guess but that's another reason why I see a dynasty.

Excuse me ma'am, but you lost me with four little words.  So, um, WHAT?!?!?!   There's a LIVE CHAT now?    IS that why the game thread was only 9 pages??  How does one access such a thing??
