We'll lose a lot with this **** D.

66 points allowed in the paint. WTF


The silver lining, our tank survives!!!

Didn’t everyone have the Nets being awful? They don’t seem awful to me.

Our defense is a pathetic joke.

Matas DNP. Does he go to the G league the first chance they can send him there? What are the Bulls doing with his development? If theyre not going to play him then why draft him?

More this but that's expected. We're lucky we don't get thrashed by 30.

No reason for not playing Matas at this point,he could have helped on defense.

No he couldn't have.

Excellent result, last thing we need is this team staying over .500 in the early season. Vuc played great, Zach played well enough with 5/9 from 3 and only 2 turnovers. They are the players we need to look good, anyone else is just a bonus.

I definitely don’t think it’s wise to let Jerry and Michael to start believing this is a play in quality team.

If Billy is gonna play this style he cant go half way in Ayo and Paw didnt have then you play Smith next to Vooch . The whole point of playing this many guys is that in a game like this youve got to be willing to throw a wrench into a the scouting report .

Our bench got outscored 48-25 and its like we are faking the play style.

For what? For keeping the pick and screwing up in the draft?No thanks,I prefer rooting for the best possible record, play in or not.Tanking didn't give us nothing so far

So far is just so far. Derrick Rose happens. Jimmy Butler does too. We need darts, as many and as good as we can get, as far as I can tell, for this year at the very least. Winning or losing 4 games could be a big difference. We need some more talent, and I need the Bulls to strive for something better than an eventual second round exit one day, or else there's not much reason to hang around.

THT is an absolutely awful defender. I guess you missed minutes early in the game. He reminds of that other fat Chicago born bum we gave $50 million. It’s easy to see why THT was fighting for the last roster spot at such a young age. He’s garbage.

Because he sucks at defense.

Matas has played 25 minutes so far this season. That’s a joke. Billy needs to get him minutes.

Our defense guarantees that the play-in will be our ceiling. I’d rather not lose our pick for that. Especially considering that we are again winning games because of players that won’t be here long term. Our two best players so far are the two players we want to trade. And we are not going to get equal value back.

You're right,I began watching at 3rd .

Bulls aren't realistically a 67% win rate team, a L was inevitable. I like the Ws vs Bucks, Orlando, Memphis. They had solid entertainment value. A Nets vs Bulls game, nobody cares about and another L for the tank.

If hypothetically you're trying to win every game, than you either need some rim protection out there or you go all offense / no defense which means the bench also has to provide offense. Nets bench had 48 points to our 25, that's more than the margin of the loss. Going all offense means the bench is included as well.

I wonder what's going on with all the crappy starts, Nets had a 17 point lead in the 2nd. 91% chance to win by that point.

Chicago is the 4th highest scoring 3rd quarter team in the league. 24th highest scoring 1st quarter team.
1st/3rd are the same players, players are rested. Kinda weird.

They were 1 missed FT away from being a fully healthy Denver team. They didn't look awful to me that game. And it wasn't a stinker form Denver, they were hitting their shots, 52%/42% shooting.

Brooklyn looks like a much better team than I was lead to understand. Tough loss, we could have pulled it off but it didn't happen. Thomas... he can score, dam..
