"We need to suck and get Flagg"

"This team sucks and has ruined basketball for me"

What exactly do people want? We're losing and still fun at times while sucking defensively. We all knew this is what it would be, I don't understand the outrage?

2nd night of B2B.

Billy with some great tank coaching to start the 4th quarter.

Will give Giddey another 15 games to get some chemistry and play back into this high pace shape…

But I’m seeing a great guy to trade for a 1st in this draft. Don’t see him as a piece moving fwd without D, 3s, and ability to get his own shot. He can get FTs and get tough shots in PNR but he can’t really get his shot.

cumulative damage.

I sure wish I never had to watch Dalen Terry play another min. Kid has literally not improved at ANYTHING. No added muscle, IQ, better shot or handle. Have no idea why not as he posts workout videos all the time.

He had a nice strip on Edwards at the rim. Def not a fan, but he does have some more bulk to him.

I think you'll find those are 2 different types of fans, not the same.

Personally, I'm fine with the losing as the next 2 drafts are stacked and the Bulls need someone who could be a potential cornerstone for yesrs to come.

Watching this team always make me think of the ideal talent to build around Giddey.

Bulls played well for most of this game and looked like they would possibly pull out a win but Minnesota picked it up in the late 3rd/ 4th and they ended up getting an easy win .

Edwards was the difference maker, that’s why stars are needed, bulls do not have a player in that level.

I’m not outraged. This is what needed to happen for any hope of long term success. We need draft luck.

The only Bulls highlights I watch are on this channel and are just for laughs.

Watch on YouTube

Thought they played really well on a B2B against a WC conf finals team.
If it makes anyone feel better, that's probably a close game or win w/ Lavine replacing our bench guys.

This is just a bad team that can get hot some nights. Trade Zach & Vuc (our best player this season) at the deadline and we’ll be firmly in the mix for Flagg & a top 5 pick.

All well said, this team has no future with this terrible roster & BD. Get Zach healthy and trade him & Vuc.
It is going to be very complicated though to get an FRP unprotected unless we take garbage back. Zach better stay healthy & keep lighting it up. Maybe Vuc gets an FRP with protection.

Yeah I don't get it either... If there was one season to be care free and just let it be surely this was the one...

I'd be more concerned if we kept winning

So, let's take stock of where we are. The team's best players this season have been a 34-year no-defense center who is borderline untradeable and a 29-year old no-defense guard who is borderline untradeable. Meanwhile, none of its young players projects to be a star. In fact, it's not even clear if anyone projects to be an above-average NBA starter.

Do I have it right?

What you don’t have right is vuc being untradeable. I think a lot of teams will want him. I think he is worth a FRP for sure with how hes playing. But the problem is AK won’t trade him because of how well hes playing, lol.

OK, I will clarify. He was borderline untradeable entering this season, as an old, bad defense center who bricked his 3s. This year, he's certainly valuable if he continues to play at this level.

Vooch is basically playing to the level when he was an allstar. Which is really saying to me that Demar really did hurt Vooch the most. Its just hard to have 3 players equally giving you their most optimal self. It was the same for Bosh and Kevin Love.

I'm usually critical, but c'mon, we're complaining about a loss on a B2B w/o Zach and Ball? Where are all the Kudos for Billy playing Matas 17 minutes? At least the "Tank Thankers" are here

I would not be bothered a whole season of this to give the guys on this roster a legitimate shake in terms of demonstrating if they are keepers in a future core. The other goal is to pump of the trade value of Zach and Vuc to get something of value back. Maybe some contender finds themselves in need of a starting level C, mid-season and we miraculouly nab a late, future 1st for him.

2nd night of B2B.

Billy with some great tank coaching to start the 4th quarter.

Prime example of what Dallas did to get luka. Play worst lineups in the 4th. Only issue for us is we are also the worst team in league with 1st quarter starts.
