CHGO Chicago Bulls Podcast CHGO

The CHGO Bulls crew begin their Player Evaluations for the 2023-24 season with DeMar DeRozan. The crafty vet had another strong offensive year, putting up 24 points and 5 assists per game while leading the NBA in total minutes played. Matt, Big Dave and Will give their grades for DeMar’s season, and contemplate his potential future with the team as he nears free agency. Could Arturas Karnisovas find a sign-and-trade deal for DeMar? Should they consider letting him walk to actualize some of the needed changes to this mediocre roster? Plus, the guys take a trip down Bulls playoff memory lane and review Monday night’s action in the NBA Playoffs.

The CHGO Bulls crew discuss what lessons Bulls VP Arturas Karnisovas can learn from Chicago Bears GM Ryan Poles and his rebuilding strategy that has the Bears on the cusp of contending. The NBA and NFL operate differently, but Will Gottlieb believes there are still some hard truths AK can learn from Poles, who just had a unanimously successful 2024 draft. But getting to that point took hard work, zero shortcuts and commitment to a specific plan. Can Karnisovas make similar steps to get the Bulls back on a path that actually leads to something good? Matt, Big Dave and Will also react to the latest scores and storylines in the NBA Playoffs.

The CHGO Bulls crew discuss what the Bulls' biggest need is with their first round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. Should Arturas Karnisovas and Marc Eversley be drafting to fill a specific need, or just take the best player available in what is widely agreed to be a weak class? Matt, Big Dave and Will break it down, and also touch on some specific prospects including Zaccharie Risacher, Donovan Clingan, Kel'el Ware and Tyler Smith. Plus, the guys wonder if DeMar DeRozan was snubbed for Clutch Player of the Year, and if the award was even a necessary addition.

The CHGO Bulls crew review potential trading partners as the Chicago Bulls will again shop Zach LaVine this offseason. NBC Sports Chicago’s KC Johnson affirmed that trading LaVine will be a “focal point” for Arturas Karnisovas this summer. Given the cold market for Zach at the deadline, his existing contract and injury issues, and the Bulls’ cap situation, which NBA teams could feasibly make a deal for LaVine? Matt, Big Dave and Will discuss possible destinations for the restless two-time All Star. If the Magic flame out in the first round, will they want Zach’s scoring prowess? What about the Kings, who got bounced from the Play-In Tournament after a promising 2022-23 campaign? What kind of return - if any - should AK be seeking for LaVine? Or will he be willing to attach an asset to Zach just to move off his contract?

The CHGO Bulls crew discuss Tuesday’s news that Chris Fleming and Maurice Cheeks are leaving Billy Donovan’s assistant coaching staff. Cheeks will remain with the Bulls in an adjusted role, while other assistants like John Bryant and Josh Longstaff could be in line for promotions. Will we see any outside hires made also? And how could these changes impact the team’s offensive and defensive identity next season? Matt, Big Dave and Will also react to Coby White finishing second for the Most Improved Player award, and some of the wild NBA Playoffs action from the first half of the week.
