I can't believe this guy has even played multiple all star games.

His value was to be a stretch 5, but his good 3pt shooting was an outlier not a standard. He now only offers rebounding. I mean whoever replaces him will actually be worse than him, but that player will have less expectations and be less frustrating.

Yep. That player will shoot less threes and less jump shots. And that will make everyone happier and more sane. We won't have to see shot after shot leave his hands and just deep down know there's no way he's making it, even though it's always wide open. I don't think he should be a starter anywhere in the league any more.

If that just leads to more DDR iso's I am not sure I am super excited about that outcome either

Why did we wait until we have no shooters to start bombing threes? I’d have loved to see this volume earlier in the season.

When they are clicking they are fun to watch, but this is one of the most mentally softest playoff team in our Bulls franchise history. This team lacks fight or any dog when things go south, they’ll lay down and die pretty easily.

Not even a whimper.

11-45 from three. 24% . That feels like it's almost impossible for an NBA team to do.

Cause they get disappeared to the bench if that happened. And now, well, full circle.

At this point, I’m not sure if anyone from our bench should come back aside from Caruso.

Ayo with another missed layup, cmon man. Jevonte at least picked it up on defense.

Coby for Seth Curry. Which side says no?

The bucks also gave them that all game. Zach out is a bit of that but teams should have done that all season to this team.

Usually a sign of poor depth on a team.

This game will end up looking closer than it should. It should be a 50 pt loss

Post #333 » by **HomoSapien** » Thu Apr 28, 2022 1:34 am

If this was any other team, I’d be talking about how 16 points isn’t much and there’s still a lot of time left for a run. This team just doesn’t have much fight.

Pat looking good

Pat Williams and Coby are still our 2 leading scorers tonight. I really hope that holds up

Ayo for sure. Everyone else? No issues them going

Post #337 » by **HomoSapien** » Thu Apr 28, 2022 1:35 am

Well, at least Pat was pretty good.

Unfortunately, he may be our only tradeable asset outside of our draft pick.

Everyone on this team is tradable right now... Will they all go, absolutely not but everyone on this team should be on the block

Wouldn't read much into who looks good on the Bulls tonight when
A) It's been a blowout since opening tip
B) the Bucks have been doubling and tripling DeRozan and letting anyone but him beat them.
