Podcasts about matas buzelis

Welcome to the **True Chicago Sports Fans Podcast** — BIG-Z and the boys have a LOT to talk about today!

The Chicago Bulls could be staring at a franchise-changing 2026 NBA Draft, and the biggest question may not just be who they take at No. 4 — it could be whether Bryson Graham tries to trade up from No. 15 to land Aday Mara.On today's Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down two major draft pairing possibilities: Caleb Wilson + Aday Mara vs. Cam Boozer + Aday Mara. Which duo fits Graham's SLAP philosophy better? Which pairing gives the Bulls the best mix of size, length, athleticism, physicality, rim protection, passing and long-term upside?Wilson + Mara would give Chicago a massive defensive ceiling, elite length, rim protection and transition potential. Boozer + Mara would give the Bulls more offensive polish, frontcourt passing, rebounding and half-court stability. Which direction should the Bulls prioritize as they build around Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis and Noa Essengue?Haize also reacts to the Darryn Peterson conversation after Sam Smith called Peterson a “nightmare” draft scenario for the Bulls at No. 4. Is Peterson really the worst outcome, or is the upside too high to ignore if he falls into Chicago's lap?Topics include:Caleb Wilson's fit with Bryson Graham's BullsAday Mara as a potential trade-up targetCam Boozer vs. Caleb Wilson next to MaraHow Josh Giddey and Matas Buzelis fit with each pairingDarryn Peterson as the possible wild-card pick at No. 4Why the Bulls' draft board could get chaotic fastThe Bulls are entering one of the most important drafts in franchise history. Could this be the moment Chicago finally builds a real frontcourt identity?

The Chicago Bulls are less than two weeks away from one of the most important NBA Draft nights in franchise history, and today Haize breaks down one of the most intriguing draft pairings on the board: Caleb Wilson at No. 4 and Labaron Philon at No. 15.Could Wilson give Bryson Graham the SLAP frontcourt piece Chicago needs? Could Philon replace some of the downhill guard creation the Bulls lost after moving Coby White and Ayo Dosunmu? Haize dives into how this pairing fits with Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, Noa Essengue, Rob Dillingham, Anfernee Simons, Collin Sexton and the rest of the Bulls' post-deadline roster.Plus, the latest on reports that the Bulls may only trade up from No. 15 for a small move — not a massive jump into the top 10 — and what that says about Bryson Graham's patience, draft strategy, and rebuild timeline.Haize also reacts to listener voicemails on whether Chicago should keep the 15th pick, use future assets to get back into the first round, the passing of Stacey King, potential trade-up pieces like Jalen Smith and Tre Jones, the Cam Boozer defense debate, and what could truly accelerate the Bulls' rebuild.

The Chicago Bulls may be closing in on their next head coach — and Bryson Graham could be moving faster than both the Portland Trail Blazers and Dallas Mavericks to secure his preferred candidate. Haize breaks down the latest reports surrounding Tiago Splitter, Micah Nori, Ryan Schmidt, and Wes Unseld Jr., while asking what type of coach best fits the Bulls' rebuild and player-development timeline.Then, could the Bulls quietly benefit from a potential Giannis Antetokounmpo blockbuster trade without actually trading for Giannis? With Chicago projected to have major cap flexibility, Haize explains how the Bulls could become a third-team facilitator, absorb unwanted salary, and potentially walk away with draft capital, young players, or a move up the draft board.Finally, the draft pairing series continues with a deep look at Darryn Peterson and Morez Johnson Jr. Could Peterson fall to the Bulls at No. 4? Would Morez at No. 15 give Chicago the toughness, rebounding, and physical identity Bryson Graham wants? Haize breaks down how that duo would fit with Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis,, and the rest of the post-deadline Bulls roster.The Bulls rebuild is starting to take shape — and this offseason could define the next era in Chicago.Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Join Sal Bass, Scottie B, and Dan Gracey as we break down the latest Ja Morant to Chicago rumors, discuss whether the Bulls should make a blockbuster trade, analyze Matas Buzelis' future as the face of the franchise, and debate who the Bulls should select with the #4 pick in the NBA Draft.

The Chicago Bulls draft rumors are heating up fast, and Haize breaks down the latest chatter that the Bulls could explore trading up from the No. 15 pick into the top 10 of the 2026 NBA Draft to target one of the top guard prospects on the board.With Bryson Graham now leading the front office vision, the big question is simple: should the Bulls use pick No. 15 as ammunition to chase another foundational piece? Haize dives into three possible trade-up targets — Mikel Brown Jr., Keaton Wagler, and Kingston Flemings — and explains how each prospect fits the Bulls' roster, Graham's SLAP philosophy, and the long-term rebuild around Matas Buzelis, Josh Giddey, and the No. 4 pick.Mikel Brown Jr. brings high-level shot creation and offensive upside. Keaton Wagler offers size, feel, shooting, and lineup flexibility. Kingston Flemings may be the purest SLAP-style guard with downhill pressure, defensive competitiveness, and force. But which one is worth paying the price to move up?Haize also breaks down realistic trade partners for the Bulls, including the Hawks, Mavericks, Bucks, Warriors, Thunder, Heat, Kings, and Hornets. Plus, the Bulls brought in Chris Cenac Jr. for a predraft workout, adding another intriguing big man to the draft conversation.Should the Bulls trade up from No. 15? Is this the first major sign of Bryson Graham reshaping the Bulls' identity?

The Chicago Bulls are officially entering a new era under Bryson Graham, and the biggest question now is simple: who actually survives the rebuild?

Širdyje žaliai balti marškinėliai!

The Chicago Bulls offseason rumor mill is getting spicy, and Haize is playing Facts or Cap on some of the biggest names being connected to the rebuild. Could the Bulls use their cap space to take on Ja Morant's contract and land draft assets? Should Chicago pursue Mitchell Robinson as a center upgrade? Could Colin Sexton or Zach Collins return as veteran bench pieces? And what does Matas Buzelis playing for Lithuania mean for his development heading into next season?Haize starts with the wildest idea: Ja Morant to the Bulls. The argument is that Chicago could use Morant's contract as “good bad money” if Memphis attaches real draft capital. But while Morant is still talented and capable of raising a team's competitive floor, Haize explains why Chicago may not be the right situation. The Bulls are still early in a rebuild, and Morant likely needs a team with a stronger established culture and a win-now structure.Then the conversation turns to Mitchell Robinson, who has been connected to the Bulls as a potential free-agent center target. Robinson's offensive rebounding, rim protection, and size make sense stylistically for Chicago, especially with the Bulls needing center help. But his availability, role, price point, and long-term fit all matter as Bryson Graham builds the next version of this roster.Haize also breaks down why a potential return for Colin Sexton or Zach Collins could make sense. Young teams still need veterans, and players like Tre Jones, Jalen Smith, Sexton, and Collins could help stabilize the locker room without blocking the development of Chicago's young core. The biggest question is whether Collins can stay healthy enough to fill that role consistently.Plus, Matas Buzelis is set to play for Lithuania this summer, and that could be a major development boost before training camp. International basketball has helped several young NBA players take a leap, and Buzelis could benefit from meaningful reps, added responsibility, and a faster rhythm entering the season.The show also features voicemail reactions on Tre Jones, Jalen Smith, Isaac Okoro, Caleb Wilson's leadership quotes, the Bulls' coaching timeline, Nic Richards, Guerschon Yabusele, Josh Giddey narratives, and how Bryson Graham may want to reshape the roster.

The Chicago Bulls own the No. 15 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, and new lead executive Bryson Graham may have a major opportunity to add another high-upside piece to the rebuild. With the draft class showing real depth beyond the lottery, could the Bulls find a steal in the middle of the first round?Haize breaks down four intriguing names who could make sense for Chicago at No. 15: Cameron Carr, Karim Lopez, Morez Johnson Jr., and Jayden Quaintance Jr. Carr has become one of the fastest risers after a huge NBA Combine performance, showing elite athleticism, three-point shooting, defensive tools, and real scoring upside. Lopez brings size, versatility, and international experience that could fit the modern forward mold. Johnson offers physicality, rebounding, switchability, and frontcourt power. Quaintance may be the biggest wild card of the group, but his defensive upside could be among the best in the entire class.The conversation also dives into whether the Bulls should be aggressive if Carr is their guy, how these prospects fit next to Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, and a potential No. 4 pick, and why pick No. 15 could become a major swing point in the Bulls' rebuild.Plus, Haize discusses Ebuka Okorie as a potential mid-first-round guard option, his scoring upside, quickness, shot creation, and why the Bulls could take a long look if they want another high-ceiling backcourt piece.

Could the Chicago Bulls make a blockbuster move for Chet Holmgren if the Oklahoma City Thunder ever made him available? Haize breaks down the full Facts or Cap debate on whether trading for Chet makes sense for the Bulls' rebuild, how he would fit next to Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, and Coby White, and why his elite rim protection, shooting, and age timeline could completely change Chicago's future.But there's a major catch: the cost.Would the Bulls be willing to include Matas Buzelis? Would multiple first-round picks be too much? And with Chet's future max contract looming, would Chicago be putting itself in a dangerous salary-cap situation before the roster is ready to contend?Haize also reacts to Kevin Young entering the Bulls head coaching search, why the BYU head coach's NBA background makes him a very serious candidate, and what his player development resume could mean for a Bulls team expected to add multiple young pieces this offseason.Plus, voicemails hit on Lu Dort's possible fit in Chicago, whether the Bulls should wait until after the draft before targeting win-now veterans, and why players like Brayden Burries or Yaxel Lendeborg falling to No. 15 could be an absolute steal.

The Chicago Bulls may have a massive opportunity developing with the Oklahoma City Thunder's future salary crunch. With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren, Jalen Williams, Lu Dort, Alex Caruso, Isaiah Hartenstein, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins, and others all factoring into OKC's long-term financial picture, could the Bulls benefit from the Thunder eventually having too many good players to pay?Haize breaks down why Cason Wallace should be on Chicago's radar, how his defensive toughness and young timeline could fit next to Josh Giddey and Matas Buzelis, and whether the Bulls should explore trade paths before Wallace's next contract becomes a major issue for OKC.The conversation also dives into whether Chicago should help the Thunder clear salary by taking on players like Isaiah Hartenstein, Lu Dort, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins, or even Alex Caruso — but only if draft compensation is attached.Plus, could the Thunder make a huge offer to move into the Bulls' Top 4 draft slot? And should Bryson Graham even entertain the idea of trading down in a draft where Chicago finally has a chance to add true franchise-changing talent?The Bulls have flexibility, draft capital, and a new front office direction. Now the question is simple: can they capitalize?Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: ‪(773) 270-2799‬Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Chicago Bulls offseason is getting more interesting by the day, and Haize breaks down another loaded edition of Chicago Bulls Central

The Chicago Bulls are making MAJOR front-office moves

This week, we put the spotlight on two Eastern Conference teams that fell short of expectations — the Milwaukee Bucks and Chicago Bulls.The Bucks' season unraveled in the most unexpected ways. A struggling defense, inconsistent guard play, and lack of depth led to a disappointing finish outside the playoff picture. While there were flashes from emerging contributors, the overall roster construction raised serious questions about the team's direction moving forward.Meanwhile, the Bulls leaned into a youth movement, with Josh Giddey stepping into a lead playmaking role and rookie Matas Buzelis showing promise as a two-way cornerstone. However, defensive issues and roster instability ultimately defined their season, resulting in another year on the outside looking in.We break down what went wrong, who stepped up, and what both franchises must address as they head into a pivotal offseason.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-baseline-nba-podcast--3677698/support.Visit: https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS and use code CLNS and get $50 in lineups.This show was sponsored in part by Raycon: Visit https://buyraycon.com/baseline for 20% off new buds!Get NBA League Pass: https://link.nba.com/LP19MG Looking to book a vacation?

Cam Smith and K.C. Johnson break down Matas Buzelis' continued rise after another great performance against the Grizzlies, including a career best third quarter. They also dive into the on-court back-and-forth between Buzelis and Luka Dončić and what it says about Matas' growing confidence and edge.

Gabe Ramirez and Cassie Carlson continued to discuss the top sports stories of the day in the Pick 6 segment.

David Haugh and Ruthie Polinsky continued to discuss the top sports stories of the day in the Pick 6 segment.

On this episode of On The Ball with Ric Bucher, Ric digs into the fallout from Bam Adebayo's shocking 83-point explosion against the Washington Wizards — and explains why the number itself is far less important than how it happened.Ric argues that the game was less a historic masterpiece than a glaring example of how stat-chasing, context-free analysis, and modern NBA narratives can distort reality. From Dennis Rodman's rebounding legacy to David Robinson's 71-point scoring-title push, James Harden's foul hunting, and LeBron James' record-padding accusations, Ric connects Bam's 83 to a much bigger conversation: Have NBA fans become too obsessed with numbers and not obsessed enough with what they're actually watching?He also breaks down why context matters more than box scores, why comparing eras has become increasingly dishonest, why Michael Jordan's fundamentals and degree of difficulty still separate him from LeBron James, and why today's NBA discourse often values viral stats over real understanding.This is a sharp, provocative episode about NBA history, media narratives, stat inflation, and the danger of trusting numbers without using your eyes.

Leila Rahimi and Marshall Harris welcomed on Matt Spiegel and Laurence Holmes for the daily transition segment.

Cam Smith and K.C. Johnson break down the Chicago Bulls' loss to the Sacramento Kings, where Collin Sexton poured in 28 points as Chicago struggled out of the gate. The guys discuss Sexton's potential long-term fit with the team and highlight Matas Buzelis continuing to make an impact defensively with an elite block game, fueling the conversation about his underrated sophomore season and untapped ceiling. Later, they react to Josh Giddey returning to the floor and recording his ninth triple-double of the season before looking ahead to the rest of the Bulls' West Coast trip, including a tough back-to-back in Los Angeles. Cam and K.C. also go around the NBA to talk about Jayson Tatum's return and how it affects the Eastern Conference race, while Cam weighs in on the recent Thunder–Nuggets matchup he's calling the “game of the year.”

Mike Mulligan and David Haugh reacted Bulls forward Matas Buzelis scoring a career-high 41 points in his team's overtime win against the Warriors, Heat center Bam Adebayo having a historic 83-point game and Team USA getting upset by Italy in the World Baseball Classic.

Mike Mulligan and David Haugh opened their show by reacting to a crazy sports Tuesday, with the Ravens backing out of their trade to acquire star defensive end Maxx Crosby from the Raiders due to health concerns. They also discussed Bulls forward Matas Buzelis scoring a career-high 41 points in Chicago's overtime win at Golden State and reacted to Italy upsetting Team USA in the World Baseball Classic. Later, they conducted the Pick 6 segment, where they debated the top sports stories of the day.

The Bulls use a stunning 27-0 surge against the Milwaukee Bucks to end an 11-game skid. Cam and K.C. break down how that momentum shift unfolded, and Josh Giddey records his first triple-double since December.  From there, the focus turns to what's ahead, including a challenging West Coast swing with late-night matchups against the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers. The conversation also highlights rookie Matas Buzelis and his steady presence all season, not just being durable but also embracing the learning curve and staying composed through the inevitable ups and downs.

In the third hour, Laurence Holmes and Anthony Herron were joined by Tom Fornelli of CBS Sports to discuss Bears quarterback Caleb Williams' progress in his second NFL season and which prospects would be a good fit for Chicago in the NFL Draft. After that, Holmes and Herron explained how Bulls forward Matas Buzelis seems really tired of losing as the team rides a 10-game skid.

In hour four, Crowder has fallen in love with F1 Racing. Hoch placed a bet on Matas Buzelis instead of Josh Giddey and also on tonight's Florida Panthers vs Buffalo Sabres game. Carson Beck will meet the Miami Dolphins at the NFL Scouting Combine. The PWHL women's hockey league's draft system for the first overall pick is discussed. Plus, we get the latest injury update on the Miami Heat.
