Billy D basketball.. you open game hot,then you get to sit 10min and you get 2 shots in next 7min, of them one was accidental lol.. If we dont get next coach anytime soon, this rebuild will be wasted.. same as AKME wasted 3 years for nothing and could do 2 more at least.. mediocrity

Bulls are losing (so far), Matas and Giddey are having good games (so far). It's a good day (so far).

Currently he is 2-8 for 4 pts.

Its just for me like I said weeks ago, Vooch is so zoned out that he is basically chucking at this stage. He is overly frustrated too which makes this worse.

But instead of Billy just cutting his minutes down, he still has him playing 30+ minutes.

vuc is the tank commander at this point I don't see why he needs a reduction in minutes .

Less minutes, less shots. Which could be Matas taking a few more shots.

Oh no Coby hurt.

Our guys are dropping like flies. That usually means the tank is super strong.

Yep that's pretty much the only reason to watch for me, some Julian Phillips he's only 21 but no real expectations.
Would also love to see a full game for Jalen Smith, he's 20 & 13 per 36 and still pretty young. They should give Vuc a rest one game and just see what Smith can do as a starter.

Billy Donovan just does dumb things. The rotations, the plays, everything. There was no reason to rush Coby out there. He clearly isnt moving well and has 4 fouls.

We are No defense and 3pt chucking team! Zero system, zero logic..

Huerter had 2.5 seconds to much better spot to shoot 3pt now, but he shoots it from middle of court lol.. well you cant buy smart! :banghead:

Why does Huerter have more minutes than Matas?

Defies every bit of logic.

Actually he has the most minutes in the whole team haha

They should've traded him at the deadline, even if it wasn't for much (say a 2nd round pick or two plus an expiring). If his stats continue to trend down then what will his value be in the off season? I guess he'll have value as an expiring contract...

Really smart of AKME to upgrade from Lavine to Huerter

Nothing gets me through the winter quite like 12/9 on 5-14 shooting and 0 rim protection from my center

It’s really hard to overstate how little they got for Lavine. Their own pick back they would likely have anyway and three absolute scrubs.

We are doomed as a franchise. He takes Matas out from one defensive play that isnt really his fault.

And people expect the next rookie front court guy to play major minutes. Just watch.

I really hate this team. I want to lose with Matas playing 30 minutes not with Huerter playing 30 minutes trying to win the game.
