This could be a good tank W but I am also looking at Coby. It feels like its been weeks since Coby has had a good all around game.

Good Vuc take some time off. Your backup has missed more games than you

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

Coby just is who he is at this point. Coby's best version is probably a 6th man/Ben Gordon type.

He is definitely overdue to get on one of his shooting streaks. I'm not sure that Ciby dominating the ball translates to winning with this team though.

I've been saying that since day 1 with him. Now if someone could just let Donovan in on the secret...

Yeah if we ignore the Wizards game where everyone just showed up and still stomped them, last good game was vs DET Nov 18
Last 10 games he's been 16 points 4 assists, 41% FG 34% 3P.

But overall Coby's had a very efficient scoring season so far, up from last season in TS%.
Defense is still terrible, now worst on the Bulls. Take Giddey, defensive EPM -1.6, and get significantly worse and you have Coby (-1.9). I doubt that will change, 6th year vet now.

Coby just looks horrible. I thought he could be a super 6th man. At this point he is playing himself out of the rotation. Ayo is so much better overall as a basketball player. So is Lonzo (when he can play). And of course Lavine. Even Giddey.

A fan with a Felicio jersey will be the highlight of this game.

I appreciate White trying his best to get us Flagg.

Embiid falls down way too much as a big. Its why his knees always fail him as the season goes on. Hes been on the ground twice already.

Guess they woke up outscoring the Bulls 39-17 in the 2nd quarter.

Coby is still in strugglesville so far in the first half.

The messed up thing is that it has seemed to also suck out the aggressiveness of Ayo. Ayo no need to take a back seat.

Too many ball handlers. He's deferring to Coby and Ball.

That and the Bulls thought it would be cool if they took 8 straight 3s till THT finally made one to start the 2nd quarter

Vuc left his hands at home again.

Coby has affected everyone on the floor negatively since he came back. As mentioned Ayo has become much less aggressive.

Return to Chicago Bulls
