Huerter may be the worst rotation player in the league. He legit makes the entire five man unit on the floor MUCH WORSE on both ends.

Starting to think AK was trolling us with the play in talk.

Huerter is no long an NBA level player.

It's crazy...when his contract is up he'll make 76 million in career earnings.

Yeah idk what happened to this guy, he’s only 26 too. Has he completely lost his confidence, is he not a hard worker and caused him to get worse or did the monstars take all his talents ?

He used to be a very good shooter, now most of shots are bricks.With what we’ve seen so far I agree not an NBA player but he’s in the right place to try to turn his career around even though he will lose his spot to Terry if he plays this bad.

His shot is a flat missile.

Athletically he may be the worst rotation player in the league.

Coby is such a failure as a passer. Julian Phillips 46" vertical with no defenders on a fast break, nah I'll keep the ball and get nothing out of it.

Coby just is proving he is truly limited and there is nothing special.

He will never be an all star and is a future bench player.

Not trading Coby and Vuc for whatever value they had is pure organizational incompetence.

[Dominator83]

I feel more confident that the Raptors would pass us more than the Sixers. They are truly pathetic.

Paul George v the Nets - 2 PTS / 6 RBS / 4 AST / 2 STL / 3 BLK /1/7 FGM / 0/5 3PM
No Maxey, no Embiid..

Stick a fork in him

AK’s gonna trade something like Vuc, Pat and Carter for George this offseason, isn’t he?

I've been saying since the Zach trade....

This summer will be Vuc/DDR part deux when AKME trades 3 of our next 5 1sts for PG13 and Julius Randle. Watch.

Shut him down for a month or two. People can say players don't tank but you can take steps to tank.

The issue is neither will the damn Sixers.

I don't know why on earth someone thought it was a good idea to sign him to that deal after the last seasons. Clippers are laughing out loud.

[WesPeace]

Not sure why Huerter is getting so many minutes at expense of Matas, Williams, Terry. He's 0-6 with 3 fouls.

Tired of Billy.

Why is Billy Donovan still employed here?

What has Donovan accomplished that justifies not only 1 full roster turnover but 2 full roster turnovers? What has Donovan done to earn the ability to be the guide and developer of all the new young talent we will be getting for the next several years?

Greg popovich has earned that
Eric spolestra has earned that
What has Donovan done to earn that?

Its looks like family business,his son with Windy City.. they ALL should be gone, Arturas, Eversley, Donovan and his boy.. ALL

I agree that it's a bad contract and Philly shouldnt have signed him. But...last year he was an all-star. I doubt most people thought he'd drop off as much as he did.

I think the Sixers are the allstar break away from saying Embiid is out for the year. I am sure they are thinking that now but I will give it 5 games post allstar for them to decide play-in or tank.

[Ice Man]

I remember when shooting 51% from the field in a game didn't mean losing by 18 points.

[SfBull]

Another tank win.Sixers and Nets are close,more losses are necessary.But I can't be optimistic,the only chance of improvement would be losing a lot of games firing AK ME and Billy at the end of the regular season.I don't believe these guys can do a good work even winning the lottery for the 1st overall pick.

Off topic, but the 76ers might be the most screwed team in the league if they don't get lucky in the draft. Embiid and George might both be nearly entirely dead salary at this point and are owed collectively 276M over the next four seasons.

It could have worked out otherwise, because the Sixers have had a lot of playoff nailbiters, but nevertheless The Process ended up being a huge flop. All those years of losses to build a team that never advanced past the 2nd round, and now a whole lot more losses are on the horizon, because this squad is irredeemable.

To Doug's point, I would also add the Suns. Basically they were the worst but the Sixers said hold my beer.

The significant difference between the two is that Suns can still trade KD and get something for him. That is their only out.

The Sixers on the other hand, are in an impossible situation where they cant even trade Embiid with that injury history and contract. What makes it worse is they also have a 35 year old Paul George, who looks washed and has 3 seasons max money left with a player option.

I haven't liked our situation over the years, but man that situation is what true worst case scenarios look like.

[Ice Man]

Another side note, but when he isn't pouting Jimmy can still play. Same age as PG, far less valued entering the league, and neither more skilled than PG now is nor more athletic. But Jimmy crushes PG on BBIQ, on court hunger, and on court discipline. (Off court. Jimmy sucks.)

Which is why I dissent from the PWill optimists. Skills can be improved, at least partially. But heads are heads. They don't change.

[ChettheJet]

I'm fine with losing to a better team, even at home. Losses at this point are next year's benefits. Several, maybe more than several, Bulls had bad games, that happens but at least the effort was there and they cleaned up some, not all, of the just plain stupid turnovers and passing laziness.

Let's just have everybody soak in a hot tub, play with the kids and sleep until they've got a game to play.

[MrSparkle]

Baffled why Coby’s playing so many minutes on a bad ankle, but nothing new. Now that he and Pat are out, I can see the Bulls playing better.

Maybe. He received 3 bad players to sprinkle into the crowded rotation, so we’ll see. But I know settling into a simpler, taller rotation (Ayo/Giddey/Matas/Phillips or Terry) would result in better defense and more consistent offensive play from those guys.

Not saying we’ll win games… but we’ve been getting blown out, which is more a sign of total confusion and disorganization.

I wish Huerter and Tre were re-routed or even bought out. Buying out Tre should be considered. He could help some playoff teams. We do need a small PG at all. Huerter too.

Billy is very annoying. Just stick to Terry, Phillips, Matas and Jalen. Play them high minutes! What is he doing?? I have never seen a more incompetent rotation manager on the Bulls. He gets new BAD players and just throws them together out of position. Mainly cause their salaries are high. It’s stupid.

Getting worse after the 21 deadline wasn’t a fluke. This idiot coach just doesn’t know how to pick rotations when he has 12 players of similar caliber. He has no vision other than to “run fast and play hard.”

Most “ processes” end up being a flop if the goal is championship or anything close. Just look around the league. Even teams who improve into playoff level teams will most likely not become anything more.

Good examples Atlanta, Orlando,Detroit, Indiana, NO, Minnesota… These teams rebuilt into playoff teams but they are still a long way from contending. That’s where the Bulls ended up after rebuilding so many times and I guess they are trying it again.

Sam Hinkie wasn't able to finish The Process and once they got rid of him the front office made a series of bad moves.

Had he continued with his plan...who knows.

I agree that right now their team is a mess.

Embiid chose personal glory over getting prepared for the season.
