it happens. who knows if he doesn't get traded maybe the spark that led him to actually work his ass off this offseason never fires and he just continued to be a mediocre player. happy to be 13-7 and happy that Carter Jr has found some good form.

thats what happened with Oladipo for us. really blossomed efficiently after being traded. (that was dumb trade for us though)

Low? Guy was utter garbage in Bulls uniform. Almost great as Stacey King.

uh...that's what selling low means. getting the least return because the player is at his lowest value when dealt

there is no selling low when you have guy on roster who is worthless even at rookie deal. guy was getting each night outplayed by bench centers, let alone starters. he killed his own value. i am absolutely suprised that he even functioning let alone playing well for Magic.

He is definition that God exist. Blind can see, deaf can hear and wcj can play basketball.

I think the big diff for us, and something i have been preaching, is our perimeter D/pressure. I think it is undervalued. Little guys being annoying....

Enjoy Franz. He's such an easy player to root for. Michigan is really missing him right now.

Glad to see Coby show off a bit of everything with his offensive game. If he could ever learn to finish I think he'd be a 6th man of the year kind of player.

Best part of Coby's performance for me today was defense. A sentence I did not expect to be typing in 2021. He stayed attach to his man the entire game and only committed 1 foul.

NecessaryEvil · Post #49 » by **NecessaryEvil** » Sat Nov 27, 2021 3:59 am

Coby fitting takes this team to another level. 4 scoring options? Excited. I really hope it works out. 8-)

13-7 after 20. Proud, bad losses and all. It's a new group and a long season. Memphis got thrashed by 32 today vs. the Hawks. You just have to expect those things will happen in an improved NBA. We might be talented but there's a target on our backs now as well.

The Miami showdown is BIG.

#2 vs #3 in the east. I expect our squad to rise to the occasion.

Just glad our guys were finally able to get some rest and can have fresh legs for miami

For all those Bulls fans who expect blowouts against bad teams, look at other teams - Utah with close game against Pelicans - at HOME. Wizards barely beat OKC - OKC had a chance to win the game. Heat lost to T'Wolves. There are many examples in previous week/month.

I am glad we beat Magic like that after getting mad for getting beat back-to-back. But we should not expect a blowout every game we play against bad teams - especially on the road. You will be disappointed more often than not.

WCJ played a good game tonight but I wouldn’t let it fool anyone. His per 36 numbers this year are pretty much consistent with his Bull years. The only difference is that he seems to have found a 3 point stroke. Other than that he hasn’t changed his game at all and he’ll go on to have a long long career as a bottom 10 starting centre. Throughly mediocre.

That's great news.

Exactly. He's been averaging 12/9 for Orlando. Today was a hot pan moment playing against his old team.

Good win. BD's small ball lineups make my eyes burn a little, but I'll take the W.

Check out this account's post history, you'll have a good laugh or two, or ten.

NecessaryEvil · Post #57 » by **NecessaryEvil** » Sat Nov 27, 2021 4:34 am

Listening to post game, Coby says the team is so good defensively, he has to make that his focus to fit into what they're doing.

Good to hear.

Anxiously awaiting the trade deadline/buy out market. Troy Brown Jr. + Alize Johnson + Filler/pick?

We have very little trade options at this point, but that's a good thing. We're kinda loaded.

An efficient 12 and 9 with good defense is better center play than we've got out of Vuc since the trade.

I like this one way more. Never understood why Hoiberg was always in it

Yeah honestly, I’d rather have the drummer or the cat as a coach.

I'm still routing for the buyout market where I hope we can snag a veteran PF with size. At the moment, the cupboard looks pretty bare, but maybe AKME can pull another rabbit out of the hat. (Sorry about the mixed metaphors).
