Ayo comes in, and in 30 seconds has 5 points. Are we sure Ayo isn't the microwave scorer we need.

Vuc has been a slug ever since coming back from COVID, almost like it has lingering impact.

Let me know what our record is in the last 5 games.


You mean the stretch where we went 2 of 5 and played 5 games in 7 nights?

I don't know what was going on earlier in the season but we have not looked very good since the Laker game on Nov 15th. Since then we've gone 3-4 and looked noticeably worse on both ends.

This also happens to correspond to Coby being back in the lineup.

Look at the way Ayo plays. He plays his heart out both ends of the floor. Comparing him to Coby, Ayo looks like an all-star while Coby looks like a 12th man.

Ayo.

Drills a 3.
Aggressive layup.
Great defense on Oubre and forces a brick.
Long pass to Lonzo which creates a layup opportunity.

He did 4 really good things in 30 seconds. Coby has been out there for a while and has done not a single positive thing, and a bunch of negative things.

And what drives me nuts is we have other options to use, but Billy just continues to let them get abused.

We haven't been playing Ayo his usual minutes.......

We are a much better team when Ayo and DJJ get a lot of minutes - not token 10-12 minutes.

At what point do we call Ayo a better 3 point shooter than Coby? His current year & final year rookie 3P% is better than anything Coby has produced. The volume isn't there yet though.

Ayo makes it really hard to see Coby in a Bulls Jersey for much longer

And I have been a fan of Coby and hope he has a good long career. He just doesn't fit the teams identity.

Neither does Vuc unless we get a solid defensive 4 next to him.

(20 or so games in an things start to make more sense)

Ok with Ayo scoring 5 pts and a great defensive stop in like 30 seconds, kinda puts pause on the Coby experience. lol

Coby has a role. Garbage man during garbage time.

Playing 5 games in 7 nights isn't exactly normal for ANY team. This "trend" means nothing.

I'm convinced the Bulls would have won the Heat game if Ayo and DJJ played more. But Billy is a hard-headed idiot....either that or he's receiving orders from above

3 plays in a row 2 offense and 1 defense Ayo is showing Coby how to play. Just such better instincts. If Ayo had Cobys stroke… well we wouldn’t have gotten him in the second round. This is also why outside of the top 3-4 players in most drafts it doesn’t mean much to me. Everything after top seems like a it is the luck of the draw
