Why no Bulls fans?

Most believe that rebuilding without a plan is the way to go.

I doubt that's true. Most people who want to rebuild also want to do it with a plan.

The current plan hasn't been working.

Banned.

J/K these tank games are something else.

The Bulls can shoot at least. The Raptors are brick layers.

They're ass.

They have been hot and the Bulls have looked like dog crap against ass teams.

They're still ass.

Wow Billy just stopped our own fast break.

Did Billy really just call a timeout on a 3 on 1 break? Tired of this dude.

The Nuggest/Sixers game is close. I'm surprised that Yabusele has 28 points.

Its obvious Billy is trying to work in the starters up 17 with 2mins to play. The starters have been bad the last few games. I still dont understand though.

Bench Matas as he was about to get an alley-oop. Like, what?

Well he took all the bench guys out so no.

I don't know, Scottie Barnes just doesn't look like a $54M player to me.
He's a year older than Giddey.

Matas played 25 minutes so I guess that's fair, but the Bulls are so far ahead that the Raptors aren't going to catch up. Playing Matas to the end wouldn't hurt anyone.

Patrick Williams with 9 rebounds today. Benching him gave him motivation...?

I'm glad Billy gave Matas some decent burn this game, but he really should be starting. We're playing Ayo at PF which is bad for both the team and Ayo's production.

He found his role as a bench player that doesn't have the responsibility.

You mean per year? He'll make 41, 44, 47 and 53 after this season, but you're close.

Last year he played better, but his three point shot regressed. I wonder what happened?

Another question I have is: Was trading Siakam the right decision?

Most people want a trade for a trade. I am going by what they post.

I have watched numerous rebuilds that end in disappointment.

At 18 million he's paid too much for a bench player, but I'm glad that he found a role on this team and is doing better.
