Maybe enough of the defense leaving people open on 3?
Ball will have the game of his life this way

And refs again are against us

Every man for himself, pass the ball when you get in trouble offense.

Springer is one of the few players in the league that I just love to watch play defense. He's elite.

Brad needs to pull a lever. Idk what lever that is...but this team ain't right. This is hideous basketball aside from KP dragging 4 corpses around the floor. If White, Jrue and JB are just going to fire up lazy bricks and turn the ball over every possession we may as well just give Springer or even JD a shot. We all know they can do the same thing.

Springer has done a good job out there. Not everyone on the floor needs to chuck threes. It’s nice having an energy guy and the whole team has started playing harder since Jaden checked in

Bulls aren't a good defensive team. Cs offense stunk. It was just Porzingis hitting threes early then basically junk afterwards even with JT on the floor.

Joe preaches “spacing” yet keeps throwing Luke Kornet out there in a double big line up.

I’m sick of seeing Kornet get so many minutes.

Even though JB is missing, he's not playing around with the ball.

He's been playing well.

I was also not a big fan of Kornet, but he's an improved player.

Cs will need him in case KP or Al can't play.

Stuck watching the Bulls broadcast. The size difference between Stacey King and Adam Amin is hilarious.

That's what I mean by not playing around with the ball.

JB gets the ball, 1 or 2 dribbles then boom!

I don't mind JB wanting to score, just be decisive.
