One quarter of the 2020-21 campaign is now gone, and it has flown by. In a season where Artūras Karnišovas and Marc Eversley are evaluating the Bulls’ roster, what do they think about this team? Which combination of the core should stay? To help answer these questions and join in on the fun with Jason, K.C., and Rob, The Athletic's Zach Harper stops by. The crew also dives into the "gunner" narrative around Zach Lavine and the improvement the Bulls have made under Billy Donovan.
