The brightest spot for the the bulls so far in their injury plague'd start of the season has been Wendell Carter jr. He only plays like thirty
minutes a game because he's still a teenager but I think he's one of those guys that the game naturally comes easy to. Both on offense and defense.
He's usually in the right spot on the court before things play out.

What do you guys think of the Jimmy Butler trade to the 76ers? Do you think he's worth trading Robert Covington, Dario Saric, Jerryd Bayless, and a future pick to the Minnesota Timberwolves ?
For me, it's premature to speculate on how the east will shift with Butler in the mix. I guess it depends on how he fits with the team and how coachable and willing he is to step up in a leadership role.

I heard he banged KAT's gf. As far as the x's and o's go, I think he'll fit in well with Embiid...but I don't see them getting along....still makes me worried, but I don't think Butler is a finisher

Butler never wanted to leave the bulls. That's the thing that put the chip on his shoulder in the first place. He handled being traded like a bitch
He's not particularly flashy or creative, more like a lunch pail type of player who shows up and does his job.
His shooting percentage isn't that great but he can defend any teams top scorer. Philly seems a good fit for him.
Some shitty calls by the refs near the end. Like when OG Anunoby was slammed to the grand, no call??
Van Vleet wasn't playing well last night and Lowry wasn't in top form either. JV didn't fare well with Baynes. I think his stupid man-bun threw JV off. Too many fouls too. Hopefully this little slump passes soon.

, Yeah....the refs are the worst part of the NBA. Kyrie is a victim too. He gets zero calls going downhill at the rim (all year long). By far our most exciting game of the year. I can't believe Brad is still going with Gordon...the first hitch in his coaching other than some confusion a couple of years ago in the playoffs. The east is a lot of fun this year.

Yes, most definitely! I can't wait to go the game in Feb. with the Cs.
