In your rotation players calculation you neglected to count Mike Conley Jr. So yes, we’ve upgraded considerably, but you can’t discount MN Mike’s contribution to the rotation this year. Although granted, he struggled…
Should have just kept NAW and offloaded Conley and Dillingham last offseason after they were pretty bad the year before. Instead ate any value they might have had traded NAW for not much and let Minot and Garza walk and play key roles on a 3rd seed team. Where is the teams depth? I wonder… Bad choices.
Mike Conley has been waived by charlotte! I hope they sign him back tomorrow 🤞🏾
Bulls fan here. Can I be a Wolves fan too? Really hoping Ayo can make a positive impact for the team.
With all the guards Chicago had I thought Ayo was going to be the one they kept, honestly really surprised they were willing to deal him. Absolutely love this move though, even better we were able to dump Rob too. That pick hurts a lot less when you can flip it for a player like Ayo. Honestly no idea why the Bulls even accepted that offer, but I'm not complaining 😂
5:02 Ayo is a MUCH better ballhandler than DDV. So much so, that if you want to ensure no dumb turnovers in the clutch, you let him handle it. He was the PG at U of I
