How Ben Simmons Saga Could Affect Zach Lavine's Future, Bulls Media Day Expectations Sep 21, 2021

Show notes

On today's episode, Matt and Big Dave discuss their expectations for Bulls Media Day, and how the latest wrinkles of the Ben Simmons mess could provide insight into Zach LaVine's upcoming free agency. What questions will be asked of the Bulls front office and coaching staff? Will we get any updates on the NBA's ongoing tampering investigation, or at least hear AKME & Donovan's thoughts on it? Also, we break down the latest reports on the Ben Simmons drama as the 76ers star is prepared to hold out from training camp, and maybe even sit out games until he is traded. Is Simmons taking these cues from Rich Paul and Klutch Sports, and what might that mean for Zach LaVine's Bulls future and upcoming free agency?

Patrick Williams & Coby White Fall In Redrafts, Fair or Foul? Sep 20, 2021

Show notes

On today's episode, Matt and Big Dave discuss the recent Bleacher Report redrafts for the 2019 and 2020 NBA rookie classes, with Patrick Williams and Coby White both falling from their original draft spots. Coby fell all the way from 7th to 20th, while Patrick fell from 4th to 8th. Is this more about hidden gems in the late first and even second rounds of these draft classes that surprised most everybody with their early career performances, or are the ceilings of Coby and Patrick actually lower than we hoped? Also, we start the show with a quick chat about Zach LaVine's recent shows of affection for other Chicago teams and if it means anything about his long-term future.

Celtics Poaching Zach LaVine? And Zach Gets More Endorsements as Klutch Sports Client Sep 14, 2021

Show notes

On today's episode, Matt and Big Dave react to the recent report saying Zach LaVine could be the Celtics #1 target next summer, and Zach's growing brand with the NBA2K/Mountain Dew partnership. With Zach and Bradley Beal being the two biggest potential unrestricted free agents in 2022, there's lots of noise around which teams might try to poach Zach away from the Bulls. Would Brad Stevens throw the bag at Zach, and would he leave to play with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown? Also, Zach continues to grow his brand with the recent announcement of his partnership with Mountain Dew and NBA2K. This is likely because he joined Klutch Sports, and that's a good thing...right?

Tomas *SALT*oransky, Toni Kukoc Goes to the Hall of Fame, Bulls Add Training Camp Competition Sep 13, 2021

Show notes

On today's Locked On Bulls, Matt and Big Dave discuss the additions of Tyler Cook and Ethan Thompson to training camp, Tomas Satoransky's comments about Arturas Karnisovas's blunt farewell, and the legendary career of Toni Kukoc. With Alize Johnson and Stanley Johnson's contracts not being fully guaranteed, is there a chance that Cook or Thompson could steal a roster spot with strong play in training camp? Why is Sato so seemingly bothered by AK's "thanks for your time" text message, and should we be concerned about a player leaving the team with publicly hurt feelings? Finally, we take some time to give Toni Kukoc his due credit following his induction to the Hall of Fame. He was crucial to the second threepeat and opened doors for Europeans and all international players by proving he -and they- had what it takes to excel in the NBA.
