Giddey/Coby/Okoro/Buzelis/Collins is a much more balanced lineup.


Collins is normally a foul machine, but as a starter he tends to calm down a bit. He was great last year as a starter.

You will still want someone better and someone for the future but he is an alright stopgap till we do.

Billy always knows how to get a starting line-up into double-digit negative ratings.

Buzelis really showed up to play today.

And the ease at which he's scoring is the biggest thing. He doesn't look like he's pressing at all. He might approach 20ppg this season

first game or two made me extremely worried we were going to see Bad Giddey this season but he's steadily gotten better as the preseason has gone on which is nice

early returns suggest the foul drawing ability hasn't disappeared, which is very important

Gotta remember he wasn't playing with the team over the summer since he was technically a free agent.

It does kind of irritate me that all these years no one ever gets on Vooch for his trash defense on TV.

Turner now has hit 3 straight 3s on Vooch and no one says anything. Let it be anyone else they would be ripping them to shreds.

I am a bit concerned about how we will start the season.

Coby would only play 1 game and will be on a minutes restriction. It going to be another adjustment with the starters.

Collins is the perfect C for a developing team. Mature body with experince, solid on both sides of the ball, high IQ and most importantly doesn’t take away touches from more important pieces.

It’s a stopgap but he should be playing 28 minutes per night.

Well at least it keeps BD from putting him back in the game.

Prince should have been ejected. Since they didn't the NBA needs to suspend him.

Return to Chicago Bulls
