GarPax stole SEC Player of the Year Bobby Portis with the 22nd pick in last year’s draft. Portis is a relentless and hardworking stretch-four, who can develop into another Kevin Garnett in the future.
But, picking Portis may have cost the Bulls plenty of games this season because of injuries to both Derrick Rose and E’Twaun Moore, while adjusting to a faster pace and a passing game implemented by new coach Fred Hoiberg. The Bulls only have Aaron Brooks left at the guard spot after trading Kirk Hinrich for Justin Holiday (another steal).
