He will need to be replaced moving fwd.

He’s obviously tired. I think it’s more mental than anything.


Tired from what? Not scoring? Not defending?

Vuc is like having Coby your starting point guard. He does some things well but the things he doesn't can kill you.

Bane had a career half. Seems like I’ve seen that a lot against this team. Tons of career highs for opposing team players.

We can’t go deep in the playoffs or even win a series with Vuc on this team. Doesn’t matter if he drops 40 the next game. He just doesn’t have IT. even as a third option he plays like he’s on a 10 day contract.

Rather than piling on Vuc, I'm just going to say that we have an issue with how we respond when the opposition is playing active, intense defense. Most regular season games don't have that great a defensive intensity, but Memphis is playing D like a Thibs team; Brooklyn was amped for that game with us the other night; same with GS. Our offense doesn't respond well, and the team often looks panicked when that level of defense shows up.

You start out on Beale street then who knows where you end up. Lots of good music. Love the town.

Vooch and DDR combining for 10 points in 2 quarters is unacceptable when we’re this shorthanded. Everyone else is doing their job but we need way more from those two.

They're mentally soft, of course having Caruso and Green out there can mask those problems for a bit but eventually they will get exposed.

We saw that with Toronto in the third game of the season. It has absolutely been an issue.

I also really like Memphis. I have never been shy about my Ja love but I have always loved the Memphis culture before they blow it up for this rebuild.

Vooch is going to have a huge second half, and we're going to pull out a 3 point victory.

Bane has been playing like a top 20 player in the league for over a month now. Not really surprising. Chicago needs to find its offense.

I'm struggling to remember a quarter when so many players were open for unchallenged 3s, without anybody within 10 feet of them, as Memphis had in the 2nd quarter. We are really in a very bad way right now.

Normally, when players are out, the other star players on the same team step up big and same with some role players.

Vuc as much as I loved him in the Celtics game, I hate him so far today. Playing like a scaredy cat, losing his footing, turning it over, many missed assignments and just can't score at all.

I have no idea how he even made all-star teams and how was he able to score efficient enough previous years??? Or he has just regressed that much that fast???

Can’t wait to get Caruso, Lonzo, Zach, Javonte, DJJ back.
AKME got to go

Return to Chicago Bulls
