Did the Bulls play tonight
I’m tired boss
Can’t be mad, the better team won tonight…..sigh
This team is so fucking unlikeable. No effort. And I love how every promising rookie on the bulls just turns to complete ass in year 2
I’m taking that appreciation post back
Ran off our homecourt by OKC, who is coming off of a b2b against the 76ers… jesus fucking christ.
Our future looks so grim compared to OKC
Asked it earlier at half and I still want an answer!!
>What does coby have to do to start over Ayo? I’m seriously asking.
>Ayo isn’t as much of a PG as you think he is if that’s the excuse. I still think both should have high minutes / equal minutes. By Ayo/AC is such a horrible way to start games imo. Coby/AC seem far more fluid together. Sure Javonte might take AC’s spot some nights but either way. Ayo on the first substitute rather than Coby would be far more effective. Let Dragic pick up the scraps from those two with DJJ if one is lacking off the bench.
Yeah, lets trade Demar…we don’t need him. We can unintentionally tank without him.
AKME high-fiving, congratulating themselves on extending Billy Donovan.
I’m just glad the players had fun out there
I don’t even feel that angry about this L, I’ve just accepted our fate
Can we bring back Zipser to show these guys what heart and hustle actually is?
Billy got outcoached and outplayed by his protégé, how embarrassing is that
This team is truly a tank team without lonzo and demar, imagine trading all your assets to be a bottom feeding team, thanks akme 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Even Will Purdue doesn’t bother showing up in postgame show anymore. Team lacks consistency.
Hard to watch or be excited anymore
Takeaways from tonight’s game:
* Zach had a rough one and was definitely forcing shit come the fourth quarter. Just wasn’t great on either side of the floor. With Deebo out we have another volume scorer and this isn’t the end of the world, but with Deebo out we’re winning very few games without Zach playing at least pretty good. To his credit, he did attack in the 4th quarter to push us into the bonus, but ultimately it was far too little too late.
* Vucevic was getting swarmed every time he touched the ball. He had a pretty mid game, but I wish against a smaller team he’d assert himself a bit more. He definitely wasn’t great on defense tonight. A lot of shaky close outs.
* Pat was active on both sides of the floor and was probably our best player tonight. What sucks is every time we put him on SGA, Giddey ruined us. Every time we put him on Giddey, SGA ruined us. I would’ve liked to see us try and run Pat and DJJ at the same time a bit more this game with Vucevic on the floor. One on each…AC is a good defender, but he just gives up so much size to both of those guys.
* Coby played fucking awesome imo. I would honestly consider him starting once Deebo gets back. Ayo has been pretty rough in recent memory and Coby offers so much more offensive ability. The handle looked really fucking good tonight and his defense has improved massively. He even facilitated super well tonight.
* AC looked like his usual self again tonight. Decent on offense and was a menace on defense. There was a few times he overhelped and left his man open, but at the end of the day, 5 steals makes up for getting back cut once or twice a game.
* Ayo had a shocker. Not a lot else to say.
* DJJ was solid as hell tonight. A lot of high-effort plays on defense that worked out. Man was getting blocks, breaking up lobs, and getting physical with SGA/Giddey.
* Dragic shot decent and facilitated well.
MVP’s for tonight: Coby White and Patrick Williams, with HM’s going to Derrick Jones Jr. and Alex Caruso.
I need to stop planning my nights around watching these pathetic ass games
Just once I’d like to see one of OUR role players go off for like 28 points. It never happens, our whole team is comprised of Championship contender end of the bench guys.
Put Benny in at this point.
This game was like playing your 8yr old nephew in 2k and realizing he’s better at it than you.
Guys it’s OK
Golden state is coming to whoop our ass on Sunday
So we have a very good shot at doing the most Chicago Bulls thing and bullshitting another head scratching win
Warriors will rest Curry, Thompson and Pool on Sunday because they saw the Bulls on the schedule.
20-year-old G-League MVP Nobiznas Indisleek will start his first game after averaging 5/3/2 in 5 games.
It’s not over yet for some fans. The bulls will go on a 2 game win streak and the fans will be back claiming “we are one piece away from being the 9th seed. Stop being so negative” 😂😂😂 give it up we suck ass
is dalen terry just complete garbage or something
Fire akme,
Goddamn we are lost without DeMar
Billy Donovan drives me nuts.
“Oh Pat is having a good quarter? None of that, can’t him getting too confident – bench him.”
“Oh Ayo is playing like complete ass? Let Ayo cook!”
His rotations sucked balls tonight. This team makes no damn sense, I swear to God. Bad coaching night after night after night.
Start over fam… fuck this shit
lmao it’s almost like this team totally forgot about that minnesota game.
When you gonna blow it up akme?
