My wife told me sitting through a Plain White T’s and Hanson concert was payback for making her sit through all those Bulls games Thinking back on how bad that last game was I can’t argue that the punishment fits the crime
What was the bigger prayer This shot or Giddey asking for 30 AAV?
I haven't talked Bulls on here in a while so let's change that. I don't hate Josh Giddey. Have never hated him. I think he can play. I think he'll be better this upcoming season as well. The Bulls should not give him $30 million. They have all the leverage and I hope they use it.
I think the most damning thing about the Bulls’ front office is not that they make bad decisions. Every team does that. But they don’t give themselves the margin to make bad decisions. They reduce their number of decisions down so that every decision is critical to their success.
Personal news- December 2025 the worlds getting another hoops junkie I grew up idolizing Kobe, so it’s only proper I become a girl dad 🙌🏻

Forgotten legend of the day ALLAN HOUSTON 2x All Star 2 20+ ppg seasons 5 40% + 3 point seasons One of the purest shooters we’ve ever seen. Another victim of microfracture surgery who was taken out just as he was coming into his prime Houston was a BUCKET
Today’s preview The Minnesota Timberwolves I think Anthony Edwards is so good he makes their floor higher than most in the west Listen here 👇🏻 youtube.com/shorts/xLScJxI…

2 of my favorite buckets of all time on the same pod? Yeah this is about to be a good hike

Forgotten legend of the day GEORGE GERVIN 12x All Star 7x All NBA 2x All ABA 4x Scoring Champ 8 25+ ppg seasons 2 30+ ppg seasons One of the greatest scorers we’ve ever seen. Should be on everyone’s top 10 shooting guards of all time list
6 am hoops Maybe the worst games I’ve ever played this morning, but any day playing ball is better than a day not playing ball

Kings and Portland are champions if Tmac is replaced by Kobe.
That old Jeezy so powerful even racists had to give him his 10s
Hulk Hogan's first reaction to Young Jeezy in 2006, he had to run it back 3 times
Giddeyots keep saying Bulls need to pay him so future FA’s will see the Bulls take care of their players 1- noone is saying “they paid Giddey, I want to come to Chicago” 2- noone is saying “they did NOT pay Giddey, I will NOT come to Chicago” 3- no one comes to Chicago anyway 😂
Give me ALL the Paolo Banchero stock The reason I love this kid is he shows up when the games matters most 24 playoffs - 27/9/4 (and shot 40% from 3 on 6 a game) 25 playoffs- 29/8/4 (44% from 3 on 5 a game) He will be a 1st Team All NBA guy someday
There’s something peaceful about the sound of a swish on a chain link fencr
Today’s NBA preview MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES I’m not high on them this year Listen to the breakdown here 👇🏻 youtube.com/shorts/3jXBq28…

Michael Jordan still had an ELITE mid range game with the Wizards 🐐
New Bulls Gold out now. We had @Bulls_Peck on and talked about Summer League, expectations for Matas and more Giddey contract conversations and much more. Give it a listen if you get a chance. @BarroomNetwork 🟢: bit.ly/3IHeDr3
Is this a safe space to admit that the older I get the more I like LeBron 🙈
Shout out @KingJames
