iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

The Bulls aren't going to have a talent advantage every night. So where can Tiago Splitter find advantages elsewhere? “Tagging up” is one place I'll be watching.

Matas Buzelis has never lacked confidence. In Year 3, I want to see whether he can do more with more — more freedom, more responsibility and more opportunities to create.

A completely unscientific Caleb Wilson shooting extrapolation: He went 13-of-31 (41.9%) from three in four Summer League games. Over 82 games, that’s 267 makes on 636 attempts. Forget the percentage for a second. How many threes is he actually going to take?

Matas Buzelis talked a lot about freedom yesterday. He expects “a little more leeway” and “more freedom to play how I want.” He even mentioned “not over-coaching” when asked about Caleb Wilson. Like Bryson Graham’s flexibility, Buzelis’s freedom will only be as good as what he makes of it.

I thought the hardest part about stepping away from covering the Bulls and Sky would be losing access. I was wrong. One last piece for @thebigs.bsky.social. www.thebigs.us/single-post/...

The Best Part Was Never the Access

As I step away, I find myself thinking less about the games than the people who made covering them such a rewarding experience.

Bryson Graham traded a young guard whose developmental minutes weren't assured for a veteran whose specific skill makes the developmental environment better for the young players he does appear to prioritize.

Michael Reinsdorf said Bryson Graham “understands what it's going to take to build a winning organization.” As Graham brings former New Orleans colleagues into the Bulls' front office, I'm interested in what he believes they got right there despite the results.

These aren’t power rankings. I’m grouping teams by how plausible I think their path to a championship is this season. The further down I go, the more subjective it gets, especially when seemingly half the league can talk itself into a postseason spot.

Pina's fake Norm Powell trades had me trying to come up with a few of my own. The more I tried, the more I kept coming back to the same thing. Powell could be useful to a contender without being valuable enough for that contender to give the Bulls anything exciting.

The Bulls may have finally put Josh Giddey in an environment that accentuates what he does best. That should also give us a clearer picture of where his game has grown. More from yesterday’s conversation with @bawlsports.bsky.social.

This Bulls season should be about information as much as anything. What do we know in April that we don't know now?
