Hopefully Vuc is gone this offseason. Under competent management he would be.

Vuc did not want to be here any longer. Leave him out.

Vuc should be gone with Billy and AKME this offseason.That would be a dream coming true.

Meanwhile the 76ers made it interesting against the Knicks but will probably lose and the Nets are up on the Thunder.

Collins has lowkey always been a pretty productive player. Injury issues, but career per 36 of 15pts, 9 rebounds, 3 assists 1.3 blocks not bad damn good for a sixth man type player. Looks like he hustles, too, good energy.

These young guys are going to look pretty good next year. Expect Huerter to get back to shooting better too.

Collins is a good passer too, which is a nice feature in a big.

This is pretty much what I want out the team. Play well, the young guys lead the way, and preferably fall short. There isnt anything to complain about.

Feels like every game Billy is taking a timeout in the first minute of a quarter, why is the team never ready to play, Coach?

They can also play next to each other.

Could we target Cam Thomas in the off season? Ala Ben Gordon 2.0 for these young Bulls…

I think what is different as well is that with Collins it forces them to cut. He isnt a give him the ball and watch him work. Like Vooch. So all Collins offense is from activity.

He probably wont do this every game but if we move Vooch, he is enough for now.

Better coaching. Being put in better positions.

Someone kept saying Huerter was done. It was obvious he had a stroke he would refind.

Ball and Giddey are so much fun to watch on the court together. Little while ago, they were both pulling down the same rebound, lmao!

Zach has always been a solid pro, he is just injury prone meaning that you can't rely on him to be a pillar of your franchise. He is a good backup to have on your roster, but he should never be your starter.

It was me. Huerter hasn't hit 4 or more 3s from March to the end the of the season for the last two years. His jumper dies after February.

I am hoping Peter Patton could help him get it together and we move him this offseason to someone desperate for a shooter.

*FWIW never said he was 'done' like out of the league 'done' just said that Sac found guys who could defend good to great and hit shots at a better rate. He was a shooter who wasn't hitting shots and they couldn't keep their 3nD guys on the bench.
