Changing of the Guard (with Stephen Noh)

Stephen Noh of The Athletic Chicago joined us to discuss the Bulls NBA Draft. We talked about 1st round pick Coby White and how he fits with the Bulls lineup. We also asked Stephen about how White can further influence a change in offensive style for the Bulls next season. We looked ahead to free agency to discuss the options the Bulls will have to further upgrade the position in the summer. We also wondered about Kris Dunn's future with the team and if the team will eventually move him in the offseason. We also discussed the Bulls 2nd round pick Daniel Gafford and the role he'll play off the bench for the team. 

On The Clock: 2019 NBA Draft Preview

This week we gave our final thoughts on what direction the Bulls will go in during the NBA Draft. We discussed Coby White, Cam Reddish, and DeAndre Hunter among others. We also talked about Jaxson Hayes and tried to make sense of why the Bulls are intrigued by him. We reacted to the Zach LaVine trade rumors and the Bulls interest in Lonzo Ball before news broke of the Anthony Davis trade. We also discussed whether the additions of Chris Fleming and Roy Rogers to the Bulls coaching staff makes us more optimistic of Jim Boylen. We also made predictions of who the Bulls will select in the draft. 

2nd Round Knockout (with Michael Walton II)

Michael Walton of Bulls Confidential and NBC Sports Chicago returned to breakdown his favorite second round draft prospects. He told us how Jontay Porter can bounce back from his ACL injuries, the value Ty Jerome can bring to a team, and why Shamorie Ponds can be a nice flyer for the Bulls if they miss out on a PG in the first round. We also give our predictions for the direction we think the Bulls will go with the 7th and 38th picks in the draft.

See Reddish? (with Corey Tulaba)

Corey Tulaba of the Hardwood Herald joined us for a very detailed look at some of the Bulls potential draft options. Corey explained some of the allure behind Cam Reddish and the pitfalls that contributed to his underwhelming season at Duke. We also talked Darius Garland and Corey broke down why Garland could end up becoming one of the best players in the draft. We closed out with a discussion on Coby White and Corey explained some of the encouraging signs in White's game. Corey also gave us his sleeper choices in the first round, who the Bulls should target in the second round, and whether trading the pick for Lonzo Ball would be a wise move for the Bulls. 

Making A Point (with Big Dave Watson)

Big Dave Watson of Bawl! Sports and Bulls Outsiders joined us to discuss the latest Bulls news coming out of the NBA Draft Combine. We went in depth on the Bulls options to find a point guard in the draft or free agency and Dave explained why Coby White may be a sneaky good pickup for the Bulls. We also discussed the Bulls interest in signing Terry Rozier or trading for Lonzo Ball. Dave also gave us his thoughts on which player he believes is the key to a Bulls turnaround, who the team will draft, and much more.

Lemon-Aid

The Bulls are finishing the 2018-19 season with one of the most injury-depleted lineups in team history. This week we discussed the injuries that plagued the Bulls this season and the organizational backfires behind it. We also talked about Walter Lemon Jr. and some of the other players who've stepped into the rotation to fill those shoes. We also wondered whether Zach LaVine is accurate in believing the Bulls will be a playoff team next season.
