What are the five sports topics on the hosts' minds today?
It's time for five on it. Rahimi Harrison-Roney. Bring you five topics on their minds today. On 104.3 The Score. I got five on it. Number one.
Yesterday was Bulls executive VP of basketball operations, Arturis Karnaschovas. Best day since when?
The day that they traded for Vooch on the midday show. Okay, so like he wasn't on the midday show, but Dan and I were interviewing Casey Johnson. You know, because everybody's like, ooh, Layla won't be good for the show. What does she know? Well, what you forget is that I worked here every day for over a year previous to that. And in that time, Kevin, Casey Johnson was on our show. And it was, I believe it was the day of the trade deadline. And it was in 2021. And we had found out that Arturas Karnaschovas had traded for Nikola Vucevic. And Dan and I went crazy. And I believe we were both wearing black turtlenecks at the time, which was a strange thing because we always tended to match. And we were like, whoa!
And everybody talked about it and they laughed. But that's how I felt. So I think, me, that this was his best day and his most effective day since then. And that's an easy one for me to say, but for the Midday Show listeners, if you know, you know.
Very specific of you. I'm going to be a little bit more specific.
To the hour? To the minute?
Yeah.
For the career?
Immediately following the Bulls' 125-118 win over the Kings on February 17, 2022. With that win, the Bulls guaranteed they would go into the All-Star break in first place.
You in first place.
That was the peak of the Arturis Karnaschovas era. He is fighting so hard to get back to that. Don't know if he will. Clearly, he's been given an opportunity to do so. But that, to me, was the best day of the era because that was the day his whole realized vision came to fruition. Unfortunately, that team did not remain 17 games over .500. They had won five straight at that point. That was when DeMar DeRozan became the first player in the 75-year history of the NBA to score 35-plus in seven consecutive games while shooting over 50% from the field?
Wasn't there also—that was the stretch where that January— the game winners had happened. The late December, early January.
Yeah, he had some game winners in there as well. So that was it. That was the prime Bulls in the Karnaschovas era. AK. And ever since then, it's been quite downhill.
Whoa! There it is. Number two. Hold on. But it went like this. So Casey was talking and then suddenly he paused. And then Dan and I were like, wait, did we lose you to the Cylons? And then he's like, no. Arturis Karnaschovas just traded. The Bulls just traded for Nikola Vucevic. And we were like, oh, my God, it's center. And then that's when we heard the whoa.
Whoa.
Number two.
What was your favorite moment of the Nikola Vucevic era, a.k.a. the Vucci main era? Shout out to Stacey King.
I mean, I was going to say it was that stretch that Marshall talked about where the Bulls at one point were in first place. And I'm pretty sure Chief Moosher, Danny, Danny Parkins. I'm pretty sure. And I'll ask him this in an hour. I think he made a bet on the Bulls to win the East at the time. Don't you guys remember that? Because the Bulls were not quite in first place when he made the bet. I want to say this was about late November, early December-ish. And he was like, I'm going to put a bet on the Bulls to win the East. And then we're like, wow, that's a bold choice, Danny. But that was it. They were absolutely at that time where they were winning games. DeMar was hitting game winners. They were incredible.
What impact did Joe Thuney have on the Bears in 2025?
They were the cardiac Bulls. And the concept was fully realized. They had had the center they wanted. Center was more offensively minded than defense. We know that. They had Lonzo Ball healthy. He was making everything go. He made it all make sense. DeMar was shooting well. Zach Levine was shooting well. Everything was great. And yes, they were a legit contender at that time in the East. It was at December 2021, January 2022-ish time. So that was my favorite time of the Vooch era. That's when I feel like he got there and immediately you understood the picture that the Bulls wanted to paint.
