Weird takes in this thread as if it's a fully healthy Bulls team getting decimated by the reigning champs not a team missing four key players. Every team would struggle in this circumstance, all the more so against the better opponent.

Giannis and them boys have DeRozan in jail. I think this is over.

They need to get some bodies, otherwise they can't compete with any of the Celtics, the Bucks, the Sixers, the Heat etc. The Cavs and the raptors have better defenders too. The Bulls roster is one way and it's not even elite on their best end.


The Bulls broke down since Game 3 30p loss at home. The Bucks are mostly coasting on defense too but it doesn't matter because they miss too many shots.

he was never a mvp candidate. casuals just see his big ppg and think hes a superstar. but like i said he was peaked in toronto and masai decided to dump him. he is a ringchaser at this point 3rd option on a title team.

Vuvevic as your leading scorer is a recipe for bad news. That's three games in row they've been blown out.

I think we shouldn't say that exactly. His scoring skillset is limited but he's a great ball handler and above average passer for his size. We've never before seen his combination and length, strength, speed and coordination in the open court.

So yeah, he does have "skill", just a little different than what we expect from our superstars.


I’m obviously exaggerating. But if he was 6-7, I don’t think he’d be starting on an NBA team. He just plays bully ball. Constantly driving into your chest. It’s his only move and you’re shocked if he makes a jump shot or makes a field goal that’s not a dunk

There was a point where he was hitting game winners like every game and scoring 40, it was a feel good MVP but we all know what Derozan is like in the playoffs.

This is Raptors 7 years ago bad Wizards bad.

Don't you have some lasagna, err pizza, to go eat? This narrative is old and clearly exposes people that haven't actually watched him play much.
