I think someone posted it last week that he was like 27th in minutes for rookies. Just insane.

Even more insane is just this week someone said he needs to stay in the G League until after the ASB and someone else said he doesn't need to play to develop because he goes against NBA players every day in practice.

This has nothing to do with Matas I'm a huge believer in him.


Yeah King do be firing up the Hype train for every rookie we have had in existence lol. So yeah I can understand people being numb to it. But a broken clock is right twice a day :)

I was suuuuuper skeptical about Ayo. Local kid, Illini player and the announcers were hyping him up.
I was even asking folks on the board like "you sure he is good? this isn't the local kid bias?"

Is it fatigue? But seriously Ayo, Zach, Coby better get their heads out of their butts. 3-16 combined?

If Ayo, Zach, and Coby don't shoot like ass, we win this game easy.

Ayo is missing shots but none were bad looks. On the other hand Zach is forcing it and Coby is drunk.

It’s really, really easy to see why Matas was the #1 projected pick in the draft this time a year ago. God bless the Ignite. May it rest in peace.

Also, from a distance the Bulls uniforms kinda look like someone peed on them and the stain never quite came out.

The thing for me, I am not even advocating that Matas gets 25 mins a night and take others out the rotation. No. I just wanted him to have a consistent 10-15 mins until things get ironed out.

Some nights are going to be bad, but some nights are going to be amazing. But you wont know that unless he plays.

Two weeks ago Matas was going to be firmly placed in the G League. Zach being banged up was divine intervention that prevented that. But Matas had to jump on that opportunity, and he did. Thank goodness.

I have been calling them gilded toilet paper. So that makes sense to me.

Buz did more in one quarter than Pat has flashed in his career.

Well, there's plenty of objective room to be skeptical about him. He's been putting up terrible numbers this year, frankly. I really hope we see him start hitting his shots at his career rates. I'm a big fan of his story as well, but I am perhaps more bearish on him than most here.

10 minutes was never enough at least after his first few outings. He had shown it was time to play him more many games before now and they just wouldn’t do it.

15-20 though should be a lock and should have been for awhile now even when Pat was playing.

Oh no, I meant when he was a rookie and how the announcing team was hyping him up. I love the kid. His shot will come around. He was awesome last year.

Hell after losing Caruso he is the last dog we have at the guard slot. I would play Ayo all the minutes if I could.

None of the guards are defending at all.

Pippen Jr is the best guard in the game tonight

Zach is waking up but we need to defend

Is Coby drunk or something? He looks absolutely terrible on both sides

Regardless of anything else, Giddey sure can pass.
