Game 51 Bulls (22-29) @ Wolves (27-23)

4 offensive rebounds and a timeout by the Bulls before they ever go on offense. That must be a Wolves first.

Luka Garza just got exposed. Any time anyone says play Luka over Miller, I curse them to watch that 6:26 minute stint again and again until they can defend it.

Can't watch (at work) but keeping an eye on the box score - What's the "vibe" like from the guys? Playing with hustle or going through the motions?

Yeah Garza is a complete defensive liability. Other team just attacks him constantly. He also hasn't done anything on offense the last 3 games. There's no point playing him anymore, we need a backup center.
This team is sleepwalking again. 1st night of a B2B as well.

Luka showed in the first half why he will probably never be a regular rotation player. The Bulls whole offensive approach while Luka was on the floor was to go at him in isolation and I think they went something like 7-7 on those possessions (layups and uncontested 3s).

I just noticed how quick Bulls call timeout in the third quarter when things don't go right. Finch would had waited until 3 min mark when we are down 20. So, if the team is not playing the way the should, you just sit back and let them figure it out? Finch at best is too lay back.

+1 This team have chemistry issues but mostly at that stage have a serious coaching issue...

Finch is not the man to lead this team anywhere, it’s so obvious.

Where is Ball or JMcL? We struggle when Conley and Dilly don't play well

So record is the only way to judge a coaches ability...?
The Bulls coach can be good at something ours isn't without it turning into opinion bashing for the hell of it - TimberKat has a point with the timeout calling from Finch, this cannot be denied and has been talked about ad nauseum ever since his hiring.

Jaden playing 37 minutes seems to be too much. He looked dead on his feet. Mike had a better game by this years Mike standards. Unfortunately that still includes 9 points on 10 shots. Dilly really needs to hit his shots to get minutes. 1 of 6 for 3 points why also being bad on defense is hard to give more run too. I herby declare that Luka Garza should be permanently traded to the Iowa Wolves. Leonard Miller needs minutes at C. I don’t understand how anyone can think Miller could play worse than Garza after that performance.
