No defense, no boxing out, no rebounds.

After a solid start for the reason, I think I might be done watching this team. There’s not much reason to be excited about anyone.

The defense is a disaster. It's one thing to be unable to stay in front of guys but you shouldn't be getting beat on cuts over and over again. Complete lack of awareness.

Lineups without Lavine, Vuc, or Giddey. Billy just wants the teams to score 0.

The Bulls have been ass to start games for 3 straight seasons. The starting lineup has the worst net rating on the team. At some point it's time to look at the coach. If he's not man enjoys to bench William and move Coby to a 6th man role, find someone who is.

This is so much deeper than not having Caruso out there. We have just completely lost on defense right now.

Why is Carter playing? There’s literally no point to him seeing one single minute on the floor.

Seriously what is this lineup? Our 3 best scorers are sitting on the bench together.

Julian Phillips and Dalen Terry are like the only guys who hustle on this team. The issue with Dalen is that is all he offers. Dude scores 3.7ppg on 44%

I wouldn’t really call this basketball anymore. More like two teams running up and down like headless chickens with Atlanta doing a much better job at it than we do.

Beyond this team just being built to fail (the 4 best offensive players are some of the worst defenders in the entire league, especially at the 2 crucial spots: rim, on-ball - no dirty puns intended)...

Billy's rotations are crazy. For the 5th year in a row, he just has no idea what to do when he has too many options. He's fine when the top-5 hierarchy is clear as day (he'd literally play his 5 best players regardless of position, which I respect, but also question: Caruso/Lonzo/Zach/Demar/Vuc, an undersized combination). It's like you take the NBA2K ratings and play the top 6 guys about 80% of the 48 minutes. Then you scratch your head and randomize the rest.

But the second you have un-proven NBA players, or struggling scrub vets, or emerging players, it becomes this game of musical chairs. Nobody can come into an NBA game with no rhythm and shoot, defend "on a string" and move the ball well, let alone a mediocre team with a bunch of sub-25 year olds. Horrible chemistry for the 5th year. I don't know what the **** these guys did on their kumbaya trips, but it sure wasn't playing basketball.

Billy would need 12 challenges to get the officiating right.

The officiating tonight has been embarrassing.
