Lol what just happened? That was insane. Well done, Zach.

It takes 13 three pointers from Zach so the Bulls can beat a crappy team at the buzzer. I just cannot feel good about things right now. Sorry. Kill me.

Jimbo tried to lose this game for us with his dumb defensive schemes but Lavine and Coby are like hell no, we are going to win this.

Not the way we're going to win these games, long term, but Zach always had my one game pass to fo for full Kobe tonight. Jimbo deserved it.

Now we just have to invent some kind of actual team ball and find out what in the earth there's to do with Lauri. I mean, this was the team he was doing well against. Give him a week just playing with his kid and if no one finds reasons and ways to help this out, they might have to consider trades... But at this point, it would be selling too low most probably.

I'm still upset about why the coach didn't sub the right players for defensive purposes? What exactly was the thinking behind that? I'd love to know. Again props to Zach but the coaching decisions were inexcusable. Your Center is hustling and sweating out there and you don't bring any help? Boylen needs to go.

Hell of a response from Zach here considering what transpired last night. We'll see if tonight's game propels the team.

Still very concerning that Lauri is essentially non existent playing with Zach. They rarely ever have good games together.

Love Coby's reaction to the three.

Love Coby and Zach playing together. Having 2 players on the floor that can get their shot off is so rare for us. Feels like we're cheating or something.

So what. It was a once in 200 times that will happen. It's not like this is good for the Bulls right now. It was great..It was a miracle win. Won't happen often though and it's not like it was a team win or anything. This is actually terrible for the Bulls and Lavine. Anything that encourages hero ball is team killing.


You don't have to be so miserable dude.

Enjoy it.

It was a highlight in a season of lowlights.


Sorry I'm not delusional. Listen dude, you've been as hard or harder on Lavine as anybody here. That's fine. He's deserved it. But, if you think this is somehow a good thing for this basketball team.. sorry, that is delusional.

“That game winner doesn’t happen if I didn’t call him out yesterday and sub him in at the right time. Just great coaching all around.”

Boylen subs are still annoying at times but Zach brought the killer instinct tonight. If he plays more where he is a volume 3 pt shooter and dribble driver within the flow of the offense like tonight, he wouldn't be making bad decisions like poor bail out passes and early shot clock attempts.

Not like this is good for the Chicago Bulls or anything.


The thing is, Zach didnt get into his rhythm with hero ball - he was playing within the offense - especially when Sato was excelling early at the PG spot.

In the 4th after Boylen's 'Scary Squad' had lost the lead and built up an almost 10pt deficit - then Lavine turned to hero ball - which was successful because he had rhythm from earlier in the game.

Hero Ball isn't the answer. However, setting Zach up to be successful and get him in rhythm is a great recipe for success.

Maybe I shouldn't have turned that game off.

So the name of the game for the season is to try and keep our heads above water until markkanen and boylen can figure his garbage out.
