Bulls don't do anything well.

Seriously, I don't see a single thing that they do well. I don't see what impact if any that Billy Donovan brings to the Bulls and you better believe it I still think he's an upgrade over Uncle Fester.

Bulls just play with this weird lax energy. Nobody is developing, guys are regressing and for whatever reason Williams keeps starting. I don't remember the last time any team was just so hell bent on starting a completely useless player.

They suck quite nicely.

Bringing in vuc as a focal point broke them. They at least had elite offense going for them before.

I dont understand what happened to running different plays, moving the ball etc. Suddenly all that has disappaered. Did Billy just give Lavine and Vuc free reign of everything that happens on offense?

We did pretty well at losing?

I'm having doubts on BD as coach. Eating crow when I thought he would be the one to right the ship.

They were still a losing team and even before the trade the offense was starting to slip.

They have nobody on this team that can QB the offense.

Failing to bring in a pg at the deadline is costing them. Ball would have really helped.

You can't do anything well without decent dynamic PG. Bulls simply lack one for years, soon will be decade without one.

We can pretty much pencil Lonzo or Schroder in. I'm not crazy about either, but they'd address some problems.

Not so sure about that. The team had some pretty bad losses leading up to the trade deadline. That Cleveland loss was pretty bad.

Not true, they're great at breaking our hearts.

i think part of it is that BD's system apparently took time for guys to learn, even with the benefit of training camp. and Vuc is a much more significant player to integrate into it with less time to do so.

zach has also been slumping since the ASB despite a career high in points. hopefully the covid rest serves him well

The key to them doing things well enough next season to be a playoff contender will revolve around having a better starting PG, improvement from P Will and Coby on both ends, a solid vet that can shoot and defend, running plays that matches each player's role, and the team as a whole knowing how to look for mismatches on offense. If these things occur, better consistency should occur, which should allow Billy to stick to a consistent rotation. At the moment, it seems like once they find something that works like pick n rolls with Vuc or finding him in the post, finding Lauri on mismatches or when he's open, P Will cutting around the lanes while the primary playmaker is looking for him, having Coby at the SG spot, Zach playing balanced with passing and scoring, etc., they go away from these things eventually during the game.
