"Ayo I want to put the Paws on em"...- The Chicago Bulls 2022-23 Season thread.

[CHICAGO]

Not just pace, dude just refuses to even look at passing the ball.

Dude's on the court with another elite scorer, a big man that can finish and it's him throwing up shyt after dribbling for 10-12 seconds and not a single pass being made that possession.

OF THE MOMENT nikkaS
LIKE @Trot LaRoc & @Tenchi® Ryu™ SAID THIS nikka WAS BETTER THAN ROSE
BEFORE THEY EVEN MADE
THE PLAYOFFS.

Good game Chicago. I just want to say whoever in your executive group decided to give Derozan that contract should be in the executive of the year talks. Derozan is an absolute monster. Absolute beast

 

[GoldenGlove]

Not feeling the offense when teams tighten up the defense.

It's predictable and essentially Zach and Derozan taking turns. That ISO ISO ISO shyt will only work when they're hitting difficult shots. Vucevic is needed for the sake of the offense not being stagnant

I'm just making an observation and calling it out now for documentation purposes. The style of offense is not going to work beyond the 1st Round (maybe)

I'm not rooting against my team like @Left.A1

When they lose it kills my whole vibe, I love that this team is good and winning now tho.



It's been a long past few years following this team

I agree, but I think a part of it is that DeMar brings it up off of a rebound or a made basket every possession late.

Out of timeouts, they definitely should mix it up. Zach would have to demand the ball while DeMar is bringing it up which would look crazy...

DeMar waving off Coby's screen on the previous possession was some selfish nut ass shyt

Bulls literally have 3 other guys with 20 but nope, let's take an awful contested jumpshot tied with 10 seconds left where nobody else touches the ball

What he's been doing all season. He's been unbelievable hot making tough shots all year, but he was clearly gassed late in this game so again why have him exert energy initiating offense instead of the plethora of guards on this team?

Memphis defense and physicality is what the playoffs will look like.

I've been mentioning it all season, DeMar has lived at the FT, even drawing tons of fouls from his jumpshot. Last night you saw how he gets when he doesn't get that call. Frustrated and T'd up. That's how we should expect the game to be called in May and June.

The Bulls have an advantage in that they have multiple guys who can create offense in isolation, which is necessary in the playoffs, the issue is the offense is completely relying on that every night.

Offensively, Billy Donovan ain't coaching shyt

I've been consistent with this all season. This offense is dogshyt and they don't run a damn thing.

Billy Donovan should be fukking ashamed, I swear. Muhfukkas really dropping crucial games to the Kings, Knicks and the Pelicans in the last week and a half. If they just took care of business and beat teams they should definitely beat, they'd have 46 wins right now. Miami has 48 for perspective.

Same executive picked Billy Donovan instead of Ime Udoka tho

I also said eventually....like in a year or 2 if lonzo keeps getting hurt which seems like it will be a reg thing


Nah, he still is a space cadet at times and not mentally engaged. Knee doesnt help but he still ballwatches, zones out and make mental errors


Next year is a make or break for me regarding him. Im.still 50/50, hopefully we have a new.coach

It'll be interesting to see how they see him going into this offseason. Seriously one of the most perplexing players I've watched. Tonight, he was an overall net positive when he was on the floor (got 12 minutes) but didn't take 1 shot, didn't get to the FT line once. With how this offense is set up, I'm not even sure how he fits in at all anymore.

I think Billy has crowned Ayo too fast. I would be ok cutting some of his minutes and giving some to Pat, because the Bulls are getting crushed on the glass night in and night out. I also don't get why Caruso is in the starting lineup.

The Bulls are basically starting 4 guards with Vuc at this point. Caruso also is picking up a lot more fouls earlier in games because he's matching up with other starters for longer stretches. Just have him anchor the send unit. This shyt is not it with Coby coming in as the backup PG with Zach or DeMar.

You win some you lose some but that’s still a pretty big win

Yea this latest Ayo/Caruso/LaVine/DeMar/Vuc lineup sucks

His rotations just fukking suck point blank.

Are there any decent options for coach next year?

 

[Conscious Pilot]

Wishful thinking that this slump means we’ll get out the first round… but looking at the matchups I’m not confident with any of them.. glad we in the thick of things I guess

With all the injuries and the Bulls being a big surprise in the NBA this year, they won't make a coaching change so soon. Even tho, we may unfortunately be looking at this team over the next few years get out coached and be capped for that reason alone

I need to see this team in the Playoffs so I can see how he manages a series. That's when the spotlight will be magnified.

The local guys are starting to call out the questionable rotations and the ridiculous unnecessary 3 and 4 guard lineups already.

 

[beenz]

I have never seen a jekyl and hyde team where they play so well in the first half of the season and go to utter in the 2nd. fukking ridiculous.

 

[cornercommission2k12]

Teams figured us out other teams copied it and Donovan has been unable to counter.

Missed the game last night. Was confident they would win somehow they lost smh
