[…] or lefty, but usually righty) and even started shooting his awkward more frequently…and more successfully. In 2009-10, Joakim wasn’t going crazy from the outside, but he attempted 100 more outside shots […]

I must say when the Bulls drafted JoNo, I cringed and shouted OH NO! But now I love everything he bring on the court, including the “tornado ball”. And his free throw pct has gotten very respectable too.

I am excited about the coming season for the first time in a long time though I’m not as giddy as KennyKashVIII. Expecting a 50+ win season but they’ll still be fighting for 4th, 5th or 6th spot with the Hawks and Bucks.

These are going to be the longest two months before training camp.

Matt, would it be possible for you to do a post about Rudy Fernandez. I have heard so many things about him coming here or to another team. It would be good to have a concise argument for having him as a Bull and a concise argument against him. Thanks!

“s also refreshing to see a player that seems to to be unchanged by his success and financial situation. He is who he is and I really respect that. Especially when we have so many pre madonnas in the league (I won’t name names but we know who they are). It is going to be fun to watch him this year and for years to come!”

Im not suprised that fame and money havent changed him in the slightest. His parents are world famous, and at 7ft, he grew up in the spotlight being freaking obvious with his height. Add to this that he grew up loaded, so he has been used to money and lifestyle his entire life. Why would his persona change in this situation. The guy is great for the sport, as he doesnt talk in cliches, and has genuine passion and commitment. I hope he is a Bulls lifer.

I too found myself not liking him when we drafted him. But I got to say he is a true competitor with a lot of talent. The best part about it is he appears to want to develop into the best player he can be through hard work. It is also refreshing to see a player that seems to to be unchanged by his success and financial situation. He is who he is and I really respect that. Especially when we have so many pre madonnas in the league (I won’t name names but we know who they are). It is going to be fun to watch him this year and for years to come!

Just want to say about your 60 win prediction. D. rose is a great scorer and everything, but at this point in his career he just doesn’t run an offense as well as D. Williams. That and the system that J. Sloan runs is so efficient on offense, that even with all the weapons the bulls have they will have trouble matching Utah’s efficiency. I’m putting the over/under on Bulls wins at 53.5 this year.
