Hopefully this confirms the FO direction that this team isn’t good enough. Sell off Coby & Vuc, keep Zach if you really want to.

[meekrab]

It's incredible, every home game some random bench guy just has the best game of his life out of nowhere.

[kodo]

Who needs Cooper Flagg. Let's roll with this for the next 5 years.

[Bulliever2020]

Giddey is awful and will be the most hated player on the team next year when he is making 20+million/yr. Mark my words.

[Dez]

15 shots for 16 points, Coby has turned me from a fan to just flat out wanting to dump him for anything.

[HomoSapien]

Missed most of this game. Where's Pat? Did he get hurt or something?

He played like **** so coach put him where he belongs.

The Bulls are only 5 wins away from 5th place. You never know what could happen. Haha.

He is averaging 6/3 over the last 7 games. He isn't hurt, he is just invisible.

He has some good attributes but he has zero business being a starter in this league.

How you possibly start someone that can’t score at a high level, shoot at a high level and is a abysmal defender?

We’ll get the 7th pick and draft a solid role player whilst a handful of the top players become all stars.

It’s a story we’ve seen a hundred times. Looking forward to watching THT cost us a draft spot or two at the back end of the season too.

Too many tanking teams in the East. We may end up in the play in without even trying.

Philly is in the 11th spot and unless they get healthy they are gonna be there for a while. Their record against .500 and above teams is horrendous.. and 15 of their next 16 games are against teams at or above .500

[aguifs]

It's over. it's beyond dumb keeping this sh*T

[ImSlower]

This team simply is a failure. Maintaining this course is baffling. By course, I mean that AK hasn't even got his sail out if there were a wind to catch. We're floundering in the exact same place out to sea, only our captain and first mate keep spinning the ship around trying to pick a direction. If I weren't almost out of whiskey I think I could continue the ship lost at sea analogy going for awhile.

I could see that. Do the Bulls then go into the next season with the same roster, but with Giddey making 18+ million a year?

AK doesn't believe in tanking. And neither do many Bulls fans.

So there's no other options left. You don't get star players in FA, they 100% get traded before a team lets them walk for nothing.
You just run it back and pray you'll find the next Plowden.

[TheSuzerain]

I don't see how getting passed by Detroit doesn't get AK relieved of his duties.

[SirKaiser]

Uhh aren't most teams supposed to win one game of a B2B? Especially when both of those games are at home? And especially when that 2nd game is against a depleted team that was also on a B2B? This game is the latest "worst loss of the season" and there's simply been too many of those at the halfway point of the year.

I'm still not ready to say blow it all up, but to not make any moves (and soon) would be inexcusable.

[SirKaiser]

He is averaging 6/3 over the last 7 games. He isn't hurt, he is just invisible.

It was amazing to see that just before half he had a stat line of 2 points on 1-4 shooting, with 0 rebounds, 0 assists, and 0 blocks.

Invisible and/or he simply doesn't fit with this team but BD continues to force it.

[Red8911]

They should be ashamed of themselves losing to a bunch of bench warmers at home. Zero effort, zero defense, offense terrible all night. Just straight up bad overall.

Billy took some tough questions from the press as expected after a loss like this. He seems pissed off as well at his players even mentioned that they should have some sense of pride from losing hustle plays all game long. He’s right but he’s also at fault.

One reporter mentioned that this is rock bottom for this season. I think he’s right. Is AK fine with how this teams performing, how Billy’s coaching, or how Patrick’s playing ? If he is then it’s time for him to go.
