Forget the Bulls... read up on Jen Swanson's CV prior to the Bulls. It's very very very impressive. _________________ "He may say it's not you, it's him.... but it's really you."
Don't care much about Jens competency, just mostly about her level of attractiveness which imo is very acceptable.
So the rehab exercises I was given led to me not only setting back the original injury, but also blowing out both knees, but it was cool, because the chick was so hot.

“It really speaks to both Luke and Jesse — just their willingness extend me that opportunity to really grow and be in that seat, which is completely different,” Robertson said. “Get my feet wet and lead that group. ... From a competitive standpoint, I had a blast doing it. Just looking forward to another opportunity to do so."
In the meantime, Robertson will trade in the clipboard for some sneakers, as he is tasked with "on-court skills development" for the Lakers.
Keeping up with L.A.'s young roster will be a challenge, but certainly isn't a deal-breaker for Robertson, who ended his five-year collegiate career at California in 2010.
As a senior, Robertson was named Second Team All-Pac-12, led the league in 3-point percentage (44.0) and helped the Golden Bears to their first conference title in 50 years.
In this Chinese Yi interview, there is really interesting footage of the coaching staff working with the peps:
some things I noticed:
- Zu is expanding his perimeter game quite a bit.
- Coby Karl is working actively with some of the players/coaches, which would imply he'll be more than just the d-fenders coach. They view him as an integral part of the Lakers organization already.
- The coaching staff is on the court showing where the ball needs to be moved. I guess that's the upside of having a younger coaching staff - they can get on the court and show how it's done.
I don't know bout you guys but hiring Jud Buechler (shooting coach who cant shoot and has no bball coaching experience) and Jen Swanson ( blamed for Rose and Noah reinjury) makes me nervous. _________________ “God knew they couldn’t be on this Earth without each other.

Just to lighten up your mood:
Jud has connected with the young players from everything I have read, and is closely doing a good job of working with Ingram, he is not a waste on the staff and is actually more valuable then Tracy Murray or Mark Madsen.

With Jud, can't say for sure he's more valuable than Murray. I mean, lot of our players have better FT% than Jud ever did, so what pointers can he impart them? And I seriously doubt he is more valuable than Madsen. Officially, Luke has assigned Madsen the bigger position as an Asst Coach while Jud is only a player devt coach.
With Jen, I do realize she is being hired as an in-house PT to replace Judy, and not for the athletic director position which was her last job for the bulls. But I only know of her work with Bulls players, which other NBA players has she worked with? Man I still wish we have kept Alex McKechnie. _________________ “God knew they couldn’t be on this Earth without each other. He had to bring them home to have them together.” – Vanessa Bryant

Not knocking on Murray, but this year's coaching staff made more progress in just a few weeks than Murray did all of last season.
I believe Jud and the coaching staff played a big role in Ingram's progress throughout the summer league - he was working closely with Ingram and the other prospects on the team. Ingram broke out in his last game because his stroke was actually better than what he displayed in his previous games. Yi also appears to have a quicker release than what he displayed in the Olympics. I can only assume it was something the coaching staff pointed out.
They've impressed from the little I've seen from them. I expect huge strides in everyone's game. I think we'll find out why Luke hired Jud during the season, but I still trust his judgement in hiring him.
The only question mark for me is Jen. I believe Thibs is as much as to blame for Chicago's injuries.

Don't underestimate Jen, I know she didn't handle the Rose and Noah injuries well, but her overall track record is very positive.
Jud shouldn't get criticized cause he's not the main proceeder in wins or loses, he's just there to work with players and help them evolve.

I don't think Jud Buechler has been designated as a "shooting" coach. I think he's just a coach. You don't need to be a shot doctor to run shooting drills.

Right. Official roles/areas of expertise on the staff hasn't become public knowledge as of yet. _________________ “Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God. And people who would be happy in heaven if Christ were not there, will not be there."

“I’ve been told I’m the most positive person on the planet,” Buechler said, beaming. “I don’t know if I am or not, but I think positive energy’s huge, especially with a young group of guys. We’re not going to win every game, and losing is really tough on young players and on teams in this league. So we just need to stay the course, (think) more big picture and enjoy the process of getting better.”

Political answer, The staff has no idea how the young players are gonna do, until then there is gonna be some question marks, but if the young players show there star potential this year, then the whole game changes.
