Right exactly what we expected where the opposing team is laughing and cracking jokes. Great to be a Bulls fan (sarcasm). But its going to be worth it.

How the hell did this become a blowout. Not one Bulls players stepped up while GS went on a run. They all got scared and all played horribly after being up 24.

Billy took out all of the hot hands and tanked it.
Our run happened with Jalen Smith and Coby lighting it up and they either sat or the team went away from them.
If you wanted to win this game Jalen plays more minutes than Vooch, you don't play Huerter at all and you find minutes for JP/DT when you need some hustle out there.
We made our run on defense and then abandoned it.

Billy of course didn't call a timeout on a 12-0 run in 1:30... then he made a big sub. Decided to ride Tre-Coby-Huerter-Giddey-Jalen for about 5 minutes straight, which of course gave up a bigger lead.
Multiple rebounds were given up, and surprise-surprise: the defense wasn't good.

Billy don’t tank, he does it naturally. 40 pt swing losses get coaches fired, except for Billy he will never get fired no matter what he does apparently.

When we were playing defense he was incredible. He goaded Draymond into throwing him to the ground, had multiple dunks and made some moves in the paint to power to the rim.
Jimmy out-muscled him on the other end but other than that he was holding his own.
He had 13 in the first half but then we stopped playing in the 3rd and the game flipped with Curry waking up.
EDIT: Oh and Matas drew a charge. I think the graphic said he leads the team in them w/ 3...

I dont think you understand. How do you think we got Tyson and Eddy, then Luol, Ben Gordon, Kirk Hinrich, Joakim Noah etc etc. We tanked.
That left us with enough draft equity of good players to build something. Whether it be with trades or whatever. Those particular teams only got so far, until we finally got lucky in the draft and got DRose.
DRose adding to those other really solid players gave us 8 consecutive playoff years and one ECF and could have won a title.
The team we have now is a perpetual 9-10th seed. As we have been the last 2 years.
So this isnt about Jerry. This is just reality. If you arent a LA or Miami where top players come because they feel like it, we have to build thru the draft and get lucky.

Bulls are easy to beat if you attack the basket, and Warriors started doing that late 3rd and plenty in the 4th.
Teams that have figured out to just attack the basket instead of chucking 3s with us almost always win, no matter how bad/good they are.

It is easier to make people believe that the want to be true.
The Bulls will rebuild for 3 years and have a about 3 years where compete.
Then you have another plateau and rebuild.

Re: Bulls vs Warriors 7pm CT Feb. 8 2025
I didn't even notice that Dalen Terry wasn't playing. That isnt a good sign. Well to me these 29 games is one that you make that decision to keep him or let him go. No need to offer his 4th year QO
I really didnt think KH would play as much as he did. But he had a horrible debut.
When Zo returns, its really going to crowd this backcourt. I dont really care.
To me, Matas, Ayo and Coby should not be affected by any rotations. They should all get 30 mins.

Not trading Vuc was a huge mistake. He will have no value outside of being an expiring contract this Summer. He has fully regressed back to the guy we gave up our future for.
AK being a terrible GM as usual.

Zo will play PF and probably get injured again. You know how Donovan likes to play.

I am in LA, I watched pleeeenty of the Kings. Huerter has been bad for 2 years. He was hitting shots in the first Beam Team year but that was all he could do. His jumper was broken all of last year and then Keon Ellis showed up and not only shot it better but plays real defense.
Huerter shouldn't play if you want to win. Sacramento learned that last year.
He and Collins are dead weight. Not sure why Billy gave him so much burn when all he did was get torched and brick shots.
