Is there something wrong with Nikola Mirotic this year? Or is there something wrong with Fred Hoiberg? Because it has to be one of the two. One of the two has to be to blame for Nikola’s semi-struggles this year. Blame must be allocated. To one or both of them. It’s easy to say Fred…

Nikola Mirotic 25 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2015)
I’m pretty sure Stacey King just spent the entire broadcast talking about Nikola Mirotic “punishing” C.J. Miles. Like, the whole damn thing, whenever Nikola was in the game. I get that the Bulls should have maybe exploited the matchup advantage more heavily, but was it as simple as just passing the ball to Nikola every…

This is why we don’t hand out the end-of-season awards based on one good month near the end of the season. Nikola Mirotic killed it in March, scoring tons of points and inviting people to say things like “He contributes to a winning team, what has Andrew Wiggins done? Nikola should be Rookie of the…

I like to imagine Nikola Mirotic’s beard as a little black kitty all curled up on his face who purrs whenever he makes a shot.

Damn, Nikola Mirotic has really been killing it lately. I take back what I said about Wiggins being a lock for Rookie of the Year. Given the basketball media’s massive recency bias, I’d say that if Threekola can keep this up, he has a great chance to win it. Not that it matters, really. Who…

It took a whole bunch of injuries to almost all of the Chicago Bulls’ roster, but Nikola Mirotic is finally getting decent playing time. What took so long? Tom Thibodeau might be a good coach, but his minute allotment is just crazy, and when he gets fired it will be understandable. Niko has taken it…

It’s weird that Nikola Mirotic hasn’t been getting a ton of minutes, considering his coach is Tom Thibodeau, he who runs his players into the ground. What’s the deal here? Usually when Thibs finds a player that he likes, he gives said player 40 minutes a game until they get injured. We could be talking…

Nikola Mirotic stared blankly at the flickering, flashing TV in front of him. His eyes saw the pointless images on the screen, but his brain did not comprehend them. Instead, his mind dwelled, as it had for the entire preceding week, on loneliness and homesickness. Yes, the Bulls had won the Christmas game in front…

In the previous installment of the continuing series “Watch Nikola Mirotic Score Points in NBA Games”, I detailed in the description the case for Nikola being voted Rookie of the Year. Intangibles were my main point of emphasis; he has a great set of intangibles, one of the best in the league. Now it turns…

With Jabari Parker out for the season, the race for Rookie of the Year has just been busted wide open. None of the rookies so far are impressing with raw stats, so the winner will have to possess intangibles to make him appealing to the voters. Nikola Mirotic has a bunch of ’em, presented here…
