1000% Agree Ange! AK47 Knows what he is doing! Everyone talks about DeRozan not shooting the three well. Yes, that is why he doesn't do it often. As a matter of fact, on average once per game. Who did people think was going to play the 3 spot for us anyway? Lauri? Here's another thing. People are saying that Lonzo is not a good shooter. Are people aware that he had his career highs in points, FG %, 3 pt FG % and Free Throw %? Also, he made 25% MORE 3pt. field goals than Trae Young last year and everyone loves that stiff. Lastly, the strides made by Zach Lavine last year beg us to sit back and let Billy Donovan coach this team and see what happens.
The 3 point splits on DeRozan are what made me less excited about the signing than I would be. I think there will be a whole new identity this year though- for both Derozan and the rest of the Bulls.
He’ll be in a position where he is not the primary or even secondary scoring option. Billy will make it work and we have such a nice mix of scorers and elite wing defenders (Coby/zach/demar and Caruso/Pwilly/Lonzo).
Interested to see if a Lauri Sign and Trade is still in play.
