Tiago Splitter wants to use a deep Chicago Bulls rotation, Nic Claxton is out for the preseason, and Patrick Williams is once again entering a season with something to prove.<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down three questions that could shape Chicago’s preseason.First, Splitter has indicated that he expects to use roughly nine to 11 players, believing the pace he wants Chicago to play makes an eight-man rotation unrealistic. That sounds good in theory, but 240 total player-minutes still have to be divided with purpose. If five starters average 30 minutes, that leaves only 90 minutes for the entire bench. Pasted textThat creates real competition.Tre Jones has to organize the offense. Buddy Hield, Jordan Hawkins and Jaylin Sellers compete for shooting. Isaac Okoro and Dailyn Swain bring perimeter defense. Jalen Smith, Zach Collins and Tobe Awaka provide frontcourt support, while Patrick Williams, Leonard Miller, Noa Essengue and Swain fight for forward minutes. Pasted textThen we get into Nic Claxton’s hamstring injury.Claxton will miss the preseason and be re-evaluated after two weeks. That does not guarantee he returns immediately after that evaluation. With Josh Giddey, Norman Powell, Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson already confirmed as four starters, Chicago still has to decide who handles the center role while Claxton is unavailable. Pasted textThis becomes a major audition for Jalen Smith, whose impact must go beyond scoring. Can he communicate coverages, contain the ball long enough for guards to recover, avoid fouls and finish defensive possessions with rebounds? Pasted textAnd finally, it’s FACTS OR CAP:Does Patrick Williams deserve another fresh start?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Williams averaged </a>7.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 20.5 minutes last season while shooting 37.2% from the field, and he still has three seasons and $54 million remaining on his contract. A new coaching staff should evaluate him fairly, but his contract cannot guarantee his minutes.

Tiago Splitter Wants an 11-Man Rotation?! 👀🐂 + Claxton OUT & Patrick Williams’ LAST Chance?

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/10/5/11/7493abcf-deca-4ddb-ac7a-790542ba4dbb_cbc_1948.mp3

Jordan Hawkins is suddenly available, Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson are being asked to grow together as Chicago’s new forward pairing, and the NBA’s changing lottery rules are forcing Bulls fans to rethink what rebuilding should actually look like.<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down three major questions facing the Bulls.First, Jordan Hawkins.Memphis waived Hawkins shortly after acquiring him from New Orleans. Once he clears waivers, Chicago could potentially pursue him without surrendering trade assets. But there’s a major question: does Hawkins actually fill a need anymore after the Bulls added Buddy Hield and Norman Powell? Hawkins has shot 34.8% from three across 174 NBA games, which complicates the idea that Chicago would simply be adding a proven shooter. Pasted textThe more interesting option may be Chicago’s open two-way slot. Hawkins could become a low-cost developmental bet if he accepts that role, but a standard roster spot should require stronger evidence that he can help the rotation immediately. Pasted textThen we get into Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson.Matas has already called the pairing potentially “dangerous,” but Chicago needs more than highlight plays. The Bulls need to learn whether Matas and Caleb can create space for each other, share offensive responsibility, communicate defensively and function alongside Nic Claxton without clogging the paint. Pasted textHaize also breaks down several two-man actions Tiago Splitter should test this season, including handoffs, inverted screening and off-ball actions designed to develop their chemistry without overloading either player. Pasted textAnd finally, it’s FACTS OR CAP:“The Bulls need to lose more games to rebuild properly.”<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">The new lottery structure complicates that argument. Beginning in 2027, the bottom three teams have roughly </a>5.4% odds at the No. 1 pick, while the other seven non-play-in teams sit around 8.1%. Losing more no longer automatically gives Chicago the best shot at the top pick.

Jordan Hawkins Is AVAILABLE 👀🐂 + Matas & Caleb Could Be DANGEROUS | FACTS OR CAP: Bulls Need To Lose?

The Chicago Bulls may have more young rotation depth than fans realize. Dailyn Swain, Jaylin Sellers and Noa Essengue are all fighting for NBA minutes, but each one has a very different pathway into Tiago Splitter’s rotation.On today’s Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down what each young Bull must prove to force his way onto the floor.First, Dailyn Swain.Summer League could hardly have gone worse statistically. Swain shot 4-for-31 from the field and 0-for-7 from three, while struggling with significant point-guard responsibilities. But training camp has reportedly looked completely different. Splitter described Swain’s improvement as “night and day,” praising his confidence and aggression attacking the paint. Swain has also made it clear he wants to guard the opponent’s best player.  Pasted textThat may be his fastest route to minutes.At 6-foot-7 and roughly 220 pounds, Swain gives Chicago another large wing who can defend, rebound and push in transition. He does not need to outscore Norman Powell or Buddy Hield. He needs to prove the Bulls can maintain their defensive pressure when Isaac Okoro leaves the floor.  Pasted textThen there’s Jaylin Sellers.The undrafted two-way guard led the Big East in conference scoring at 19.6 points per game, averaged 18.3 overall and showed legitimate scoring flashes in Summer League. His challenge is turning that scoring ability into efficient NBA offense without monopolizing possessions.  Pasted textAnd finally, Noa Essengue.After a difficult Summer League in which Splitter questioned his physicality, training camp has brought more encouraging reports. Splitter says Essengue has become more aggressive, is fighting for rebounds, protecting the rim, getting stronger and following instructions.  Pasted textThe challenge for all three is simple:Potential will not put them in the rotation. Repeatability will.  Pasted text🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:- 😳 Why Swain looks “night and day” different- 🔒 How defense could get Swain immediate minutes- 🎯 Sellers’ pathway from scorer to NBA rotation guard- 👀 Why Sellers may be Chicago’s emergency scoring option- 💪 What Noa must prove physically- 🛡️ Essengue’s small-ball center potential- ⚔️ Who each young Bull is competing with- 🧠 Why repeatability matters more than upside- 📞 Bulls Central listener voicemails💬 Which young Bull earns the biggest role this season: Dailyn Swain, Jaylin Sellers or Noa Essengue?👍 LIKE🔔 SUBSCRIBE🐂 Tap into Chicago Bulls Central with Haize!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

DON’T SLEEP On These Young Bulls 👀 Swain, Sellers & Noa Are COMING

Is Caleb Wilson really the Chicago Bulls’ best incoming prospect since Michael Jordan? And can Buddy Hield reverse his recent decline and become a dependable scorer again in Chicago?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize dives into two major Bulls debates before closing with listener voicemails.First, it’s FACTS OR CAP on Caleb Wilson.Sam Smith recently said Wilson is as good an incoming prospect as he has initially seen while making it clear he was not calling Caleb the next Michael Jordan.That creates a much more interesting debate:How does Caleb’s pre-NBA profile compare with Derrick Rose, Jay Williams and Elton Brand?Haize evaluates the comparison using what was known before each player made his NBA debut:🔥 College production💪 Athletic tools🧠 Offensive creation🔒 Defensive potential📈 Projected ceiling⚠️ Identifiable weaknessesWilson averaged 19.8 points, 9.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists at North Carolina and then opened Summer League with a 35-point performance.But Rose entered Chicago as the No. 1 overall pick with elite speed, strength and proven ability to create advantages with the ball. Jay Williams and Elton Brand also arrived with major college résumés and National Player of the Year credentials.So is Caleb already clearly ahead of them?Then we turn to Buddy Hield. 🏹Hield’s recent three-point shooting drill showed the touch is still there, but the larger question is whether he can regain consistent production after his minutes, scoring and three-point accuracy all declined over the last three seasons.Chicago may have a path to helping him.Josh Giddey and Tre Jones can create timely shooting opportunities. The Bulls’ bigs can screen for him. And Norman Powell could become especially important by creating actions where defenders have to choose between staying attached to Hield or helping on Powell.🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:<ul><li>😳 Caleb Wilson vs Derrick Rose as incoming prospects</li><li>🌟 Why Caleb belongs in the conversation</li><li>🌹 Why Rose remains the strongest counterargument</li><li>🎓 Jay Williams and Elton Brand’s cases</li><li>⚠️ What Caleb still has to prove</li><li>🧢 FACTS OR CAP verdict</li><li>🏹 Buddy Hield’s three-year statistical decline</li><li>📊 Why fewer minutes explain part of the scoring drop</li><li>🎯 How Chicago can generate cleaner Hield attempts</li><li>🔄 Powell–Hield two-man actions</li><li>🔒 The defensive requirement Hield must meet</li><li>📞 Bulls Central listener voicemails</li></ul>💬 Using only what was known before their NBA debuts, who was the better Bulls prospect: Derrick Rose, Caleb Wilson, Jay Williams or Elton Brand?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">👍 LIKE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔔 SUBSCRIBE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🐂 Tap into </a>Chicago Bulls Central with Haize!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

FACTS OR CAP: Is Caleb Wilson Bulls’ Best Prospect Since MJ?!

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/10/2/11/df97155c-4007-42d5-a666-7749dccd9d19_cbc_1945_mixdown_1.mp3

Could Karl-Anthony Towns eventually become a realistic Chicago Bulls target? Could Nic Claxton actually start possessions guarding point guards? And can Tiago Splitter build an aggressive defense without Chicago constantly putting opponents on the free-throw line?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down three major questions surrounding the Bulls’ future and the defensive identity beginning to take shape under Tiago Splitter.First, Karl-Anthony Towns.Jake Fischer’s reporting has New York and Towns apart on extension value, while Towns holds a roughly $61 million player option for 2027–28. The important distinction: there is currently no credible reporting that Chicago is pursuing him. The Bulls angle is a roster-building scenario about whether Chicago’s young core could develop enough this season to make a major veteran addition sensible next summer. Pasted textTowns averaged 20.1 points and 11.9 rebounds while shooting 36.8% from three, giving Chicago a potential pick-and-pop center who could open the floor for Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson. Pasted textBut before Chicago even considers that level of investment, Matas, Caleb, Giddey and the young supporting cast need to prove this roster is ready for an expensive win-now addition. Pasted textThen we get into one of the wildest defensive possibilities Splitter has discussed:👀 Nic Claxton guarding point guards.<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Splitter did not announce that as an everyday assignment, but he floated it as a matchup possibility. That creates fascinating options for cross-matching, switching and using Chicago’s length to disrupt an offense before the first screen even arrives. Pasted text</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">And finally…</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">😤 Chicago wants to become more physical defensively. But the NBA’s officiating points of emphasis on push-offs, screening contact, freedom of movement and driving lanes mean aggression has to come with discipline.

Could Jalen Duren’s contract situation eventually change how the Chicago Bulls view their long-term center position? Could Patrick Williams find new value as a small-ball five? And which Bulls have actually earned long-term extensions?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down three roster-building questions that could shape Bryson Graham’s next phase of the rebuild.First, Jalen Duren.Detroit’s contract standoff has created an interesting future possibility, but this is NOT a report that Chicago is pursuing Duren. The Bulls angle is simple: if Duren eventually reaches the market, should Chicago preserve enough flexibility to seriously consider a 22-year-old center coming off an All-Star and All-NBA season?And there’s an important deadline distinction: October 1 is the qualifying-offer acceptance deadline—not an absolute deadline for Detroit and Duren to negotiate a long-term contract.<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">The bigger Bulls question is how much better Duren would actually make Chicago compared with </a>Nic Claxton, who is already under contract and now gets an entire season to prove whether he can become the defensive anchor this young core needs.Then we get into Patrick Williams. 👀With Dailyn Swain improving, Isaac Okoro earning major defensive praise, Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson locked into developmental priority and Leonard Miller/Noa Essengue competing for opportunities, Patrick needs a defined reason to be on the court.Could that reason be small-ball center?Haize breaks down what the experiment would actually require—screening, switching, rebounding, quick decisions and physicality—and why simply writing “C” next to Patrick’s name does NOT solve his longstanding issue with passivity.And finally…💰 Nic Claxton, Leonard Miller, Jalen Smith and Isaac Okoro are all extension-eligible.<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">But being eligible is not the same thing as earning a long-term commitment.</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Chicago has to decide:</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔥 Is Claxton worth securing before his current deal gets closer to expiration?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🌱 Can Leonard Miller turn upside into a dependable NBA role?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🎯 Is Jalen Smith’s shooting too valuable to risk losing?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔒 Does Okoro’s perimeter defense outweigh his offensive limitations?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Every decision should come back to one question:</a>Does this player make Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson better while preserving Chicago’s ability to address a bigger weakness later?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:</a><ul><li>👀 Why Jalen Duren belongs on Chicago’s long-term watchlist</li><li>💰 What Duren’s contract decision actually means</li><li>🐂 Claxton vs. Duren as a future roster-building question</li><li>😳 Patrick Williams at small-ball center?</li><li>🔄 A lineup that could give Patrick a clearly defined offensive role</li><li>💪 The rebounding problem with P-Will at the five</li><li>💵 Four Bulls eligible for extensions</li><li>🎯 Jalen Smith’s unique value</li><li>🔒 Isaac Okoro’s long-term case</li><li>🌱 Leonard Miller’s upside vs. guaranteed money</li><li>🧠 How Bryson Graham should approach every long-term commitment</li></ul>💬 If Jalen Duren eventually becomes unrestricted, would you prioritize him—or spend that money on a high-level scoring guard?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">AND…</a>Which extension would you do first: Claxton, Miller, Jalen Smith or Okoro?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">👍 LIKE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔔 SUBSCRIBE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🐂 Tap into </a>Chicago Bulls Central with Haize!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Jalen Duren’s $200M STANDOFF Could Change Bulls Future 👀 + Which Bulls Should Get PAID?!

Chicago Bulls training camp is only getting started, and Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson, Isaac Okoro and Noa Essengue are already giving Bulls fans plenty to talk about.On today’s episode of Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down the biggest takeaways from the latest Bulls practice availability—and the early signs that Tiago Splitter’s vision for this roster is beginning to take shape. First, Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson. Matas says Caleb already feels like his “brother” and “twin,” but don’t mistake that chemistry for a lack of competition. The two young forwards have already played together, matched up against one another in camp and, in Matas’ words:🔥 “We try to kill each other on the court. That’s how we’re gonna get better.”That may be EXACTLY what Chicago needs. Matas also said he expects to defend positions 1 through 4 this season, while the Bulls’ increased size with Nic Claxton, Caleb Wilson and Leonard Miller is giving the defense more freedom to be aggressive. Then we get into Isaac Okoro. Tiago Splitter called Okoro probably the Bulls’ best perimeter defender, described him as “relentless” defensively and made it clear he expects Okoro to play significant minutes and help Chicago win games.That has major implications for the Bulls’ rotation.PLUS… 👀 Noa Essengue has reportedly been extremely aggressive through the opening two days of camp.After all the offseason conversation about Noa’s motor, development and possible Windy City assignments, that is exactly the type of early response Bulls fans should want to hear.And Matas had high praise for camp overall, calling the first practice the best training-camp day he had ever been part of—and saying the next day was even better. 🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:- 😳 Matas + Caleb already battling in practice- 🤝 Why Matas calls Caleb his “brother” and “twin”- 🔒 Matas expecting to guard 1 through 4- 💪 How Claxton and Chicago’s size can unlock an aggressive defense- 🧠 Why Matas is loving the competitiveness and attention to detail- 🔥 Tiago Splitter’s BIG praise for Isaac Okoro- 👀 Noa Essengue reportedly attacking camp aggressively- 🩺 Zach Collins continuing individual work and cardio while not yet ready for contact- 🐂 What all of this says about the Bulls’ new culture under Splitter💬 What’s your biggest takeaway so far: Matas + Caleb pushing each other, Okoro’s major defensive role, or Noa coming out aggressive?👍 LIKE🔔 SUBSCRIBE🐂 Tap into Chicago Bulls Central with Haize!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Training Camp Day Two: Matas & Caleb Are Already Going AT IT 😳🐂 + Splitter Gives Okoro A HUGE Role

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/9/30/11/21c14a5f-5363-40a4-82bf-66d8379d758e_cbc_1943.mp3

Shaquille O’Neal believes Matas Buzelis could become “a force to be reckoned with” in roughly two years—but what does Chicago need to accomplish before Matas gets there? And should the Bulls be monitoring Jalen Suggs if Orlando eventually shakes up its core?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize dives into three major Bulls storylines that could shape both the short-term rotation and the long-term rebuild.First, we discuss Jalen Suggs.ESPN’s recent preseason reporting raised questions about whether Orlando could revisit larger roster changes if its new coaching direction fails to improve how the group fits together. That does not mean the Bulls are pursuing Suggs or that Orlando has made him available—but it creates an interesting basketball question:Would Suggs make sense as a long-term backcourt partner for Josh Giddey?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Suggs is 25, has already earned All-Defensive recognition and averaged </a>13.8 points, 5.5 assists and 1.8 steals last season. His point-of-attack defense could take pressure off Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson and Nic Claxton, but a 33.9% three-point mark and his availability would need to be weighed against the major financial and acquisition cost.Then we get into the BIG Matas conversation. 🌟Shaq recently praised Buzelis’ work ethic and development and predicted:“In about two more years, he will be a force to be reckoned with.”<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">But becoming a “force” can’t just mean scoring more.</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Haize breaks down the four things Matas needs to prove:</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔥 Can he create advantages against set defenses?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🧠 Can he consistently make the next pass when help comes?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">💪 Can he handle NBA physicality?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔒 Can he impact games when his shot isn’t falling?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">And Chicago has responsibilities too.</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">If the Bulls truly believe Matas can become that type of player, Tiago Splitter needs to give him meaningful creation reps, allow him to play through developmental mistakes and figure out whether </a>Matas and Caleb Wilson can eventually create offense for one another instead of always depending on someone else to manufacture advantages.PLUS…🩺 Zach Collins missed the opening full practice with a quad soft-tissue issue.<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">The current information does not indicate a long absence, but it immediately puts Chicago’s frontcourt depth under the microscope.</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Can </a>Jalen Smith establish himself as a dependable backup?

Bryson Graham made one thing clear at Chicago Bulls Media Day: this roster is NOT guaranteed to stay together. So which veterans could be moved first—and will Chicago’s new development philosophy extend to Noa Essengue the same way it does to Caleb Wilson?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down three major questions surrounding the Bulls as training camp begins.First, we look at Bryson Graham’s comments about Chicago’s veterans and future roster flexibility. Graham said nobody currently feels like he is “on the chopping block,” but acknowledged that the Bulls could change direction as the season provides more information. Chicago also still has its room exception and the February trade deadline as opportunities to continue reshaping the roster. Pasted textThat means players such as Norman Powell, Nic Claxton, Buddy Hield, Isaac Okoro, Jalen Smith, Tre Jones and Zach Collins may all be auditioning for more than minutes—they’re showing whether their value is greater helping Chicago’s young core or eventually being converted into future assets.🔥 Norman Powell could potentially bring back Chicago’s strongest return because of his scoring, shooting and playoff experience.👀 Buddy Hield may be the easiest deadline fit if his three-point shooting rebounds.🧠 Nic Claxton presents the most important philosophical decision: is he Chicago’s long-term center or simply a bridge to the next one? Pasted textThen we get into SLAP basketball—Bryson Graham’s preferred identity built around size, length, athleticism and physicality. Chicago clearly has those traits throughout its young forward group, but the backcourt is more complicated. The Bulls’ best defensive combinations may struggle offensively, while their best shooting lineups could become vulnerable at the point of attack. Pasted textHaize breaks down how Tiago Splitter can balance those lineups, why Isaac Okoro or Dailyn Swain may need to accompany weaker defenders, how Josh Giddey can be used in cross-matches, and why Nic Claxton cannot be expected to erase every perimeter mistake.And finally…🌱 Does developmental grace apply to Noa Essengue too?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Chicago has made it clear that Caleb Wilson will be coached through normal rookie mistakes rather than immediately pulled after every turnover. But Noa is still only 19, essentially lost his rookie season to shoulder surgery and remains one of the rawest players on the roster. Pasted text</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">The real test for Chicago’s new regime is whether it can distinguish between </a>developmental mistakes and standard-breaking mistakes—giving young players room to learn while still demanding effort, communication and professionalism.

Bryson Graham Put Bulls Roster ON NOTICE 👀 +Bulls Have Shooting OR Defense…Can Splitter Actually Find BOTH?!

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/9/28/11/718ce09c-6ab6-43a2-8c94-18462772399c_cbc_1941_mixdown_2.mp3

Chicago Bulls Media Day is here—and the time for hypotheticals is over.<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down the FIVE biggest questions Bryson Graham, Tiago Splitter and the Bulls must answer before training camp officially begins.First: Why did Chicago move on from Rob Dillingham before Splitter ever coached him? The Bulls traded the 21-year-old guard before camp, and that decision could tell us a lot about how Graham evaluates inherited players, developmental upside and roster fit.Then we get into what may be the MOST important Media Day question:What is the actual development plan for Dailyn Swain and Noa Essengue? 👀Both are first-round picks—but their paths should look very different. Haize breaks down why Swain needs NBA role discipline mixed with G League creation reps, while Essengue may need more sustained developmental minutes after effectively losing his rookie season.PLUS…🔥 Who actually holds offensive developmental priority between Josh Giddey, Norman Powell, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson and Nic Claxton?Should Matas get the most advanced creation reps? Should Caleb’s touches be more structured? How much offense should still run through Giddey and Powell?And then we go X’s and O’s. 🧠Tiago Splitter has previously described a fast decision-making philosophy built around shoot, drive or pass within roughly half a second—what he’s called “organized craziness.”<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Haize breaks down what that could look like with:</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">⚡ Josh Giddey pushing after rebounds</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔥 Matas attacking moving defenses</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">💥 Caleb Wilson running, cutting and screening</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🎯 Buddy Hield and Norman Powell creating movement</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🧠 Nic Claxton flowing through screens and handoffs</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">But this system could also expose players who hesitate, overthink or struggle making quick reads.</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">And finally…</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">😳 </a>Is the Caleb Wilson hype becoming dangerous?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">A recent Bulls article invoked a “1984 vibe” around Caleb’s arrival—not to compare him directly to Michael Jordan, but to describe the franchise excitement surrounding a potentially foundational rookie.</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Haize breaks down why the hype is understandable, why Caleb’s confidence is part of his appeal, and why Bulls fans still need to leave room for normal rookie mistakes.</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:</a><ul><li>👀 Five Bulls Media Day questions that NEED answers</li><li>🚨 Why Chicago moved on from Rob Dillingham</li><li>🌱 The development plans for Dailyn Swain &amp; Noa Essengue</li><li>🏀 Who should receive offensive priority?</li><li>⚔️ Development vs immediate performance</li><li>📈 How Chicago should define progress</li><li>🧠 Tiago Splitter’s “organized craziness”</li><li>⚡ The Bulls’ potential 0.5 offense</li><li>😳 Is Caleb Wilson hype going too far?</li><li>🌟 Why Chicago shouldn’t make Caleb vs. Matas a competition</li></ul>💬 Which Media Day answer matters most to YOU: Dillingham, Swain/Noa development, the offensive hierarchy or how Chicago defines progress?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">👍 LIKE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔔 SUBSCRIBE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🐂 Join </a>Haize every day on Chicago Bulls Central!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Bulls Media Day Is HERE — 5 Questions Chicago MUST Answer | Splitter’s “ORGANIZED CHAOS” Could Change EVERYTHING

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/9/27/14/81a20263-5939-4829-ab24-7eefcd8906f2_cbc_1940.mp3

Did the Chicago Bulls give up on Rob Dillingham too soon—and could Buddy Hield’s shooting actually make life significantly easier for Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down the Bulls’ reported decision to send 21-year-old Rob Dillingham to Charlotte for veteran sharpshooter Buddy Hield and cash considerations. Dillingham averaged 9.6 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 30 games with Chicago, but also shot 30% from three and carried significant questions about turnovers, defense and his pathway to minutes. Pasted textThe uncomfortable part? Dillingham is still only 21, and Chicago is supposedly rebuilding. Haize examines whether Bryson Graham sold too early on a former lottery pick before Tiago Splitter ever had the chance to coach him—or correctly identified that Chicago needed movement shooting and cleaner role definition more than another ball-dominant developmental guard. Pasted textThen we get into the fun part. 🎯Buddy Hield is a 39.5% career three-point shooter, and his value goes far beyond standing in the corner. Haize breaks down how Hield’s movement shooting could create easier driving lanes for Caleb Wilson and Matas Buzelis, improve Nic Claxton’s roll opportunities, and give Josh Giddey another proven relocation target. Pasted textPLUS…Chicago may have solved one issue while creating another.Who creates offense when Josh Giddey sits?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Tre Jones can organize. Norman Powell can score. Matas needs real creation reps. Dailyn Swain can eventually connect possessions. But replacing Dillingham with Hield changes the bench’s offensive hierarchy in a major way.

Did Bulls GIVE UP On Rob Dillingham Too Soon?! 👀 + How Buddy Hield Unlocks Matas & Caleb

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/9/27/12/29850479-cf71-4335-b4ea-e0b16db3ad7e_rob_trade__mixdown_1.mp3

he Chicago Bulls are reportedly trading Rob Dillingham to the Charlotte Hornets for veteran sharpshooter Buddy Hield and cash considerations, adding another proven perimeter shooter just before training camp. theScoreOn this emergency episode of Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down the trade from every angle.Why did Bryson Graham decide to move on from Dillingham now? What does Buddy Hield bring to a Bulls roster built around Josh Giddey, Norman Powell, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson and Nic Claxton? And could Hield’s movement shooting finally give Chicago the spacing weapon we’ve spent the entire offseason saying this roster needs?Hield has shot 39.5% from three across his NBA career, although he dipped to 34.9% last season. That makes this a bet that his shooting gravity and track record can still translate into a valuable complementary role in Chicago. Basketball ReferenceThe financial side matters too. Hield is making roughly $9.66 million this season, while the reported trade structure allows Charlotte to create a sizable trade exception and reduce salary, with Chicago also receiving cash. Basketball ReferenceAnd Bulls fans are already going to ask:What does this mean for the Ayo Dosunmu trade?Remember—the Bulls originally received Rob Dillingham, Leonard Miller and four second-round picks from Minnesota for Ayo Dosunmu and Julian Phillips. Dillingham becoming Buddy Hield doesn’t erase the remaining Miller-and-picks portion of that return.

Bulls TRADE Rob Dillingham For Buddy Hield! 🚨 Chicago FINALLY Adds Shooting

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/9/26/12/1e85f914-e8da-46ae-9245-674e76ee2123_cbc_1939.mp3

What should Chicago Bulls fans expect from Nic Claxton this season—and who is actually going to survive a loaded training-camp battle?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize continues the 2026–27 player preview series with a deep dive into Nic Claxton’s first full season in Chicago and why his impact could go far beyond points per game.Claxton averaged 11.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.1 blocks last season, while the episode projection has him around 12.8 points, 8.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.7 blocks in a larger Bulls role.Haize breaks down how Claxton can become a more efficient finisher alongside Josh Giddey, Norman Powell, Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson, why his communication may be just as important as his shot blocking, and whether he can prove he deserves to remain Chicago’s starting center beyond this season.Then the training-camp competition heats up. 👀🔥The Bulls’ confirmed camp invitees are Brandon Boston Jr., Orlando Robinson, Drew Peterson, Peter Suder and Marquel Sutton, while Chicago currently has one standard roster opening and one two-way opening available.Who has the clearest path?Can Boston’s scoring translate into a lower-usage NBA role? Can Peterson’s passing separate him? Does Suder’s shooting survive NBA length?

Nic Claxton Could CHANGE Everything For Bulls 👀 + 5 Players Fighting For 2 Spots

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/9/25/10/bee2462c-c070-4626-b387-18398119ef69_cbc_1938.mp3

Caleb Wilson has already said he wants to become an All-Defensive First Team player—but how aggressively should the Chicago Bulls test him during his rookie season? And could Norman Powell become one of the keys to unlocking Matas Buzelis as a creator?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize dives into three major Bulls development questions heading toward training camp.First, we break down Caleb Wilson’s defensive ceiling. At North Carolina, Wilson averaged 9.4 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 1.4 blocks, giving Chicago a real foundation to work with defensively. But NBA defense is a different challenge, and the Bulls have to decide whether Caleb should immediately take difficult individual assignments or begin primarily as a disruptive help defender next to Matas Buzelis and Nic Claxton.Haize discusses why “guard the other team’s best player” shouldn’t automatically become Caleb’s nightly job, what he needs to learn about screens, physicality and foul discipline, and how Tiago Splitter can gradually increase his responsibility as his recognition improves.Then we get into the X’s and O’s. 🧠🔥What if Norman Powell setting screens for Matas Buzelis becomes one of Chicago’s most useful developmental actions?Instead of Matas simply getting more isolation possessions, an inverted ball screen could force him to read switches, traps, help defenders and passing windows—while Powell’s shooting gravity creates consequences for defenders who overcommit.And finally…👀 The New York Knicks’ camp roster could eventually produce veteran cuts including names such as Bruce Brown, John Konchar, Ochai Agbaji, Drew Eubanks or James Wiseman. But that does not mean Chicago should automatically fill its remaining roster opening. The Bulls should monitor the situation and only add someone who clearly improves either the NBA rotation or the development environment.🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:<ul><li>🔒 Should Caleb Wilson guard elite scorers immediately?</li><li>🧠 How Caleb can develop as a help defender</li><li>🐂 How Matas, Caleb and Claxton could work together defensively</li><li>🎯 Norman Powell screening for Matas Buzelis</li><li>🔥 Why inverted ball screens could accelerate Matas’ development</li><li>👀 James Wiseman or Drew Eubanks to Chicago?</li><li>🏀 Which Knicks camp cuts actually fit the Bulls?</li><li>💰 Why keeping the roster spot open may be the smartest move</li></ul>💬 Would you rather see Caleb learn by guarding elite scorers—or become the type of help defender who makes the entire Bulls defense better?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">And…</a>Would you use the Bulls’ final standard roster opening now—or wait until camp exposes a clear need?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">👍 LIKE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🔔 SUBSCRIBE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🐂 Tap into </a>Chicago Bulls Central with Haize!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Are the Chicago Bulls further along in their rebuild than people realize? And did Bryson Graham miss some affordable opportunities to improve the roster this offseason?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down THREE major questions surrounding the Bulls heading into the 2026–27 season.First, FOUR Chicago Bulls made ESPN’s Top 100 player rankings:🔥 Josh Giddey — #80<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🎯 Norman Powell — </a>#86<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🌟 Matas Buzelis — </a>#88<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 👀 Caleb Wilson — </a>#97<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Matas was unranked entering last season, while Caleb makes the list before even playing an NBA regular-season game.

Norman Powell has his sights set on All-NBA—but what would it actually take for him to get there with the Chicago Bulls? And if Jalen Duren becomes available, should Chicago make him its next major investment?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize dives into three major Bulls storylines heading toward the 2026–27 season.First, we break down Norman Powell’s All-NBA goal. Powell averaged 21.7 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists last season while shooting 38% from three, and he made his first All-Star team. But making All-NBA is a much tougher challenge, especially with only 15 spots available league-wide.Haize breaks down what Powell would realistically need to do, including improved availability, elite scoring efficiency, a bigger offensive burden and enough team impact to separate himself from the rest of the league.Then we get into the bigger Bulls future question:If Norman Powell plays at an All-NBA level, should Chicago KEEP him or use that production to maximize his trade value? 👀The Bulls hold a $22.575 million team option for 2027–28, giving Chicago flexibility in deciding whether Powell remains part of the rebuild or becomes one of its most valuable trade assets.PLUS…🔥 Jalen Duren to Chicago?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Detroit has reportedly offered Duren a massive deal, while Milwaukee and Sacramento have been identified as interested teams. One article floated Chicago as a possible mystery suitor, but that Bulls connection remains speculation rather than confirmed reporting. </a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Still, the basketball question is worth asking.</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">Would Duren’s rebounding, interior finishing and physicality complement </a>Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson—or would another non-shooting center make the Bulls’ spacing problems harder to solve?And finally, Haize breaks down Drew Peterson’s opportunity to compete for Chicago’s final two-way spot, what his passing and shooting could bring to Windy City, and why the Bulls should think about more than just raw G League production.🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:🐂 What would Norman Powell need to make All-NBA?📈 Can Powell raise his scoring without losing efficiency?💰 Would a huge season make Chicago keep or trade him?👀 Should the Bulls pursue Jalen Duren?🏀 How Duren would fit with Giddey, Matas and Caleb⚠️ The spacing concerns with another interior big🔥 Drew Peterson’s case for the final two-way spot🧠 How Chicago should evaluate its developmental roster💬 If Norman Powell is playing at an All-NBA level while Matas and Caleb are progressing, what return would be enough for YOU to trade him?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">And…</a>Would you rather invest big in Jalen Duren or use this season to decide whether the Bulls need another perimeter creator instead?👍 LIKE🔔 SUBSCRIBE🐂 Tap into Chicago Bulls Central with Haize!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Is Matas Buzelis really playing his way toward a $155 million extension? Could Caleb Wilson realistically enter the Team USA conversation by 2028? And is Jalen Smith about to become one of the most important supporting players on the Chicago Bulls?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">It’s time for another </a>FACTS OR CAP edition of Chicago Bulls Central with Haize! 🔥First, Haize breaks down why Jalen Smith’s value may go far beyond his own box-score production. Smith averaged 10.2 points and 6.7 rebounds while shooting 37.3% from three last season, and his ability to stretch the floor at center could create more space for Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson to develop as creators.But this is also a contract year for Smith. He is entering the final season of his deal and is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in 2027, making this season a major audition for his long-term future in Chicago.Then we get into the BIG money conversation. 💰Matas Buzelis becomes eligible for a rookie-scale extension in summer 2027, and recent deals for Peyton Watson, Ausar Thompson and Amen Thompson provide some major reference points. Could Matas eventually land something around five years and $155 million if he makes another major leap this season?Haize breaks down what Matas would need to show as a creator, shooter, defender and running mate alongside Caleb Wilson before Chicago commits that kind of money.And finally…🇺🇸 Caleb Wilson on Team USA in 2028?!<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">There is no reported invitation or commitment from USA Basketball, but the idea gives Bulls fans another way to measure Caleb’s development. By the 2028 Olympics, he would have only two NBA seasons under his belt, meaning he would need to develop FAST—but the role he could eventually fill alongside stars is worth discussing. </a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">🐂 Can Jalen Smith unlock Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🎯 How Smith’s floor spacing could change the offense</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 💰 Is Matas heading toward a $155M extension?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 👀 What Matas must prove before the Bulls pay him</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🇺🇸 Could Caleb Wilson enter the 2028 Team USA conversation?</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🧠 What Caleb needs to show without high usage</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🔥 FACTS OR CAP on three major Bulls storylines</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">💬 </a>FACTS OR CAP: If Matas Buzelis makes a clear third-year leap, would five years and roughly $155 million be good business for Chicago?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">And…</a>Could Caleb Wilson realistically become a Team USA-level player by 2028?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">👍 LIKE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🔔 SUBSCRIBE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🐂 Join Haize every day on </a>Chicago Bulls Central!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Matas Buzelis $155M Extension?! 👀 | Jalen Smith Could Become WAY More Important Than Bulls Fans Think

Is this Isaac Okoro’s final chance to prove he belongs with the Chicago Bulls? And could Tiago Splitter turn offensive rebounding into a major part of Chicago’s identity?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down THREE major questions surrounding the Bulls heading toward training camp and the 2026–27 NBA season.First, we dive into Isaac Okoro’s make-or-break year in Chicago. Okoro averaged 9.3 points while shooting 33% from three last season, but his defensive value could become even more important if Tiago Splitter uses him as Chicago’s primary perimeter stopper. With Okoro set to become an unrestricted free agent in 2027, this season could determine whether he has a future alongside Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson, Norman Powell and the rest of the Bulls’ young core.Then we ask one of the biggest schematic questions facing Chicago:Will opposing teams simply dare the Bulls to shoot? 👀Haize breaks down how Chicago could attack zone defenses using Josh Giddey in the middle, Norman Powell as a perimeter threat, Nic Claxton around the rim and Caleb Wilson and Matas Buzelis attacking gaps. These are potential solutions for the current roster—not confirmed Tiago Splitter plays—and they illustrate what the Bulls need when defenses take away the paint.PLUS…Could offensive rebounding become the Bulls’ secret weapon? 🔥We examine how Nic Claxton, Caleb Wilson, Leonard Miller and even Tobe Awaka could help Chicago create second-chance opportunities—and why sending too many players to the glass could leave the Bulls vulnerable in transition. The real question isn’t simply whether Chicago can rebound more misses. It’s whether the extra possessions outweigh the defensive risk.🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:🐂 Isaac Okoro’s make-or-break season🎯 Can Okoro become Chicago’s best perimeter defender?🏀 What happens if opponents dare the Bulls to shoot?🧠 How Josh Giddey could attack the middle of a zone💥 Norman Powell and Nic Claxton’s role against packed defenses🌟 Caleb Wilson’s potential offensive-rebounding impact👀 Leonard Miller’s path to more rotation minutes⚠️ The transition-defense risk of crashing the glass🔥 What Bulls fans should watch during preseason💬 What matters more for Isaac Okoro’s future in Chicago: becoming a dependable shooter or proving he is the Bulls’ best perimeter defender?Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Should the Chicago Bulls send Noa Essengue back to the G League—and could Tre Jones actually become TOO valuable for Chicago to trade?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s episode of </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize continues breaking down the biggest questions surrounding the Bulls heading into the 2026–27 season.First, we dive into Noa Essengue’s development plan. After a difficult Summer League and an injury-shortened rookie season, Chicago has a major decision to make: should the 19-year-old forward spend meaningful time with the Windy City Bulls, or would practicing every day with Tiago Splitter and the NBA roster accelerate his development more?Haize breaks down what a successful season should actually look like for Noa, the skills Chicago should prioritize, what would earn him NBA rotation minutes and why his development shouldn’t be judged simply by points per game. 👀Then we turn to Tre Jones.After averaging 14.1 points and 5.4 assists while shooting 55.3% from the field last season, Jones enters this year with a different role behind Josh Giddey and Norman Powell. But his ability to organize the offense could be especially valuable while Chicago develops players like Dailyn Swain, Rob Dillingham and Leonard Miller.Could Tre become so important to the development of this roster that moving him at the trade deadline would actually hurt more than help?🔥 On today’s Chicago Bulls Central:🐂 Should Noa Essengue spend significant time in the G League?📈 What would actually make Noa’s season a success?🧠 The specific skills Chicago needs him developing👀 What could earn him more minutes under Tiago Splitter🔥 Why Tre Jones may be essential to the Bulls’ bench🏀 How Tre could help Dailyn Swain and Rob Dillingham💰 What would make a Tre Jones trade worth it?📞 Chicago Bulls Central listener voicemailsPLUS, Bulls fans weigh in on Max Strus, Jalen Smith trade value, Josh Giddey’s future and what watching Bulls basketball will feel like without Stacey King.💬 Would you consider Noa Essengue’s season successful if he spends significant time with Windy City but finishes the year looking ready for an NBA role?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">And:</a>What would another team have to offer before YOU would trade Tre Jones?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">👍 LIKE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🔔 SUBSCRIBE</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow"> 🐂 Join the conversation every day on </a>Chicago Bulls Central with Haize!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Should Bulls SEND Noa Essengue To The G League?! 👀 + Tre Jones TOO Valuable To Trade?

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2026/9/19/12/09090030-ae48-4048-be74-b81c081fef3f_cbc_1932_mixdown_1.mp3

Could Leonard Miller eventually become the most valuable player the Chicago Bulls received in the Ayo Dosunmu trade?<a href="https://twitter.com/CEOHaize" rel="nofollow">On today’s </a>Chicago Bulls Central, Haize continues the Bulls player-prediction series with one of Chicago’s most intriguing young forwards.Miller averaged 11.7 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 23.1 minutes during his 27 games with Chicago while shooting 55.5% from the field and 35.6% from three. The production was real — but this season brings a much different challenge. Miller must prove he can remain impactful without guaranteed touches, regular starts or a huge offensive role.His pathway is straightforward: run the floor, cut behind help defenders, attack offensive rebounds, finish against unsettled defenses and provide energy without requiring Chicago to run plays specifically for him. That skill set could fit naturally around Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson.But three questions will decide his season: Can Miller defend consistently enough for Tiago Splitter to trust him? Will defenses respect his jumper? And can he maintain his rebounding, cutting and energy when his touches fluctuate?Haize gives his full Leonard Miller prediction, including a projected 20 minutes, 9 points, 5.5 rebounds and roughly 35% shooting from three while establishing himself as a regular reserve forward.Then we dive into one of the most overlooked weapons in Josh Giddey’s game: inbound passing.Giddey has previously demonstrated elite creativity as an inbound passer, and Chicago now has intriguing options around him. Norman Powell can fly off screens, Nic Claxton can slip toward the rim, while Matas and Caleb can punish defenders who overplay passing lanes.The Bulls could even use inbound possessions to flow directly into their normal offense, allowing Giddey to enter the ball and immediately become part of the next action rather than resetting from scratch.🔥 Topics include: Leonard Miller’s season prediction, his long-term Bulls future, his competition for forward minutes, the Ayo trade return, Giddey’s inbound passing, Powell movement actions, Claxton slips, Caleb and Matas backdoor cuts, and Bulls mailbag reactions.🎧 Tap in with Haize on Chicago Bulls Central for the full breakdown!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/BullsCentralPod" rel="nofollow">@BullsCentralPod</a>Phone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬ Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>
