We need our guys back so bad. Please heal up Melo, Monk and Gordo

It looks like they are trying, but just not clicking, as the other posters have said. It might get better as we go along, but there is no secret sauce (besides Rozier).

They are recklessly driving and passing the ball into clusters of defenders in the paint.

It wasn't even that though. It was a baseline inbound after a Chicago made basket.

They’re not spreading the floor and moving the ball. Bulls just stay in their spot and wait.

All of the Hornets' baskets have been assisted.

Just do more of that!

Miles Bridges is the best in game dunker in the NBA. Change my damn mind.

The Martin twins have really stepped up the defensive intensity, along with Bridges. That is keeping us in the game.

Miles is a freak

I am watching the Bulls feed. The announcers are a bit obnoxious, but they show good plays from both teams, including replays of the Bridges dunk.

TRo can't buy a bucket tonight.

Bridges is the Small Forward/Power Forward this team has been missing for years.

Nightmare half. JB will have plenty to talk about.

Rich4114 · Post #36 » by **Rich4114** » Fri Apr 23, 2021 2:03 am

Our team feels so hopeless right now.

Worst first half in a long time. Miles is becoming a hell of a player.

Yes, and the Twins are playing more within the offense. If they can develop a consistent 3 point shot, they will be the 3 & D player(s) we have discussed on here for a while.

They both have the same problem Monk did in his first three years here: the arch is too flat to be a high-percentage shot. It just takes a little practice and coaching. The footwork could be smoother, as well--their feet are too far apart.

Here is some highlights for Cody last season against the Spurs. Lots of nice drives and dishes--exactly what you are talking about.

Nineteen assists on nineteen shots so far. Good start to the second half.
