They should be fine from 3
I think the Bench is going to be as good as it was the 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 seasons
Taj, Hinrich can keep the defense maintained
McBuckets, Mirotic and hopefully Snell, will keep them from having those 4+ mins scoring drought
Only thing that still missing is another go getter like Rose, kinda wish they would have kept DJ

Bulls Nation lets goo the east is ours for the taking!!!
Rose gotta stay healthy is the main key once again
Mcbuckets and Mirtoc gotta live up to potential
and Jimmy B gotta step it up more offensively give us at least 18 ppg
I still think we need one more wing player though mainly a Point Guard. Who is left on the market thats in our range?

Honestly if Jimmy could get 16ppg while being more efficient would be great. With a healthy Rose, something resembling an inside post game, those shots should be wider open than they've ever been. Shoot maybe 48% from the field and maybe 39% from beyond the arc. And there's no reason for him to not shoot at least 80% from FT. All those percentages are more than doable when he basically shot that his second season.
Just like Derrick when them shooters are on the floor that lane should be open, draw contact and hit those shots.
As I said in the NBA thread.. That rotation between the big men should have the first and second units eating, especially in the East. Between PF and C:
Gibson 26
Mirotic 16
Noah 28
Gasol 26
If the conditioning is on par and that shot is falling for Niko and Dougie they should get near 20 mins a game by ASW.. Noah and Gasol to a certain extent should be properly rested come post season.
I really appreciate the idea of Gasol being able to mentor Niko with his post game while he adds more muscle.
This nigga Snell just needs not to hesitate and play defense. If he's being aggressive and allowing Derrick to trust him no need for him or Hinrich to shy away from him when he wide open for that corner 3.

He is a stretch 4 Kinda reminds me of Dirk for real though, If he can play like this in the NBA our front court is gonna be deadly. All he needs is some time under thibs to improve on defense

Our depth in the front court ridiculous, so many different lineups Thibs can put out on the court. Definitely going to be our advantage over the rest of the East.
gasol may not be the most physical player and his 'toughness' will only go so far but you cant deny his talent and his height he is better than boozer on both ends of the court at half the price --- cant have rose be the sole individual stressor of defenses this year so i hope they play similar to how they played when rose went down and let noah or pau handle some playmaking
it would have been cool if they addressed the wings but understanding how the cap works its better to roll the dice on your first round pick from last year tony snell making the jump that jimmy did in his second season than throwing money to players in FA that has proved to benefit low level players while handcuffing high level players
every team is gonna have a weakness not just chicago it just so happens their issues will be on the wing but they probably have one of the best frontcourt situations in the nba
no team is perfect except maybe s.a
and im not giving up on jimmy either he was the opposite of rose from years ago when rose was the only option on O except jimmy was the only option on D --- if he wasnt asked to score it wouldnt have mattered but they had him out there putting it on the floor and trying to make something happen which is not his strength all the while dogging out the other team best perimeter player
he can hit the corner 3 and slash with the best of them which is why snell needs to step up so they can move jimmy to the 3
cant forget my dog white melo
i caught some games of doug in college and seen him score in a lot of ways
seen him drive it
seen him step back
seen him do the dirk fadeaway
and i seen him score from the post
defensively i see him picking up thibs system faster than most rookies because everything i read tells me he is a great team defender which is the system thibs runs + the best thing that can happen is for the bulls to have 2 defenders down low and their weak defenders up top so thibs can easily hide doug if jo and taj are out there
and i wont even get into how hyped i am about the boy niko cause my fingers tired but im glad pau said one of the reasons he said he chose the bulls was so he can help mitotic out i forgot they knew each other from spain
so much happening organically who needs free agency bad teams rely on that
