PreSZN GM 2 – Modern Basketball


It looks like more members of the team have started to pick up Billy Donovan’s system. Pat and Coby stand out in this regard.

Also noticing more 5-Out sets.
Coupled with the noticeable uptick in 3pt attempts I think it’s safe to say the Chicago Bulls are finally playing modern basketball.

This play in particular stood out for a couple of reasons:

Initially Demar passed up an open corner 3. Which is a huge Taboo.

However, the ball finds its way to Vuc in the post and flows into a CobyxVuc high P&R, leading to a layup.

Best spacing I’ve seen since Lonzo was healthy. Refreshing off all movement with intent.

However, Demar MUST become a reliable shooter deep shooter if this team wants to make a playoff run.

What are you guys thoughts?

    We actually shot way less 3s than we should have last game especially in the 1st half. our starters took them at a much higher rate vs the bucks.

    We’re also always pretty spaced out the last couple years. its just the ball getting stagnant and not finding the open guys.

    I disagree. The spacing in previous years hasn’t been great. It was very congested when Lonzo went down and we played Ayo/Caruso heavy starter minutes.
