The bulls continue to get dominated by Bigs and Billy Donavons answer continues to be putting Patrick fucking Williams into the game.

it’s simply astonishing

I mean, Collins and Vuc is out. Not many teams can win when their starter and backup bigs are out lol

Man, if only there was a big on the trade market that’s a generational defender.

bulls have Olbrich sitting at the end of the bench who at least provides size & has looked pretty good in the G League so far this yr.

the fact he can’t even get a couple minutes of run is simply disgusting

SimbaTheWeasel

Bulls can’t rely on Olbrich if they want to win games. Even in a couple of minutes Olbrich would be at a disadvantage playing against most NBA players

Patrick Williams is basically Kawhi the only difference is he’s not good at basketball.

You’re right. If you asked AI to make a basketball player like Kawhi, but make sure they have no talent/skill it would create Pat Williams.

I may be completely off but it seems like there’s been an uptick in teams losing games even when attempting and making more three pointers than their opponent after a few years where that basically was impossible.

The league-worst offense points/game and bottom 10 rebounding team just put up 143 points and 70 rebounds on the Bulls.

Yeah, we doo doo

im not even a bulls fan but i was rooting for them and that defense was pathetic, giving up 140 to a bottom 3 offense is unacceptable. this is a talented team thats being let down by their effort on that end

podnito | Pelicans

13 | 4 hours ago

It isn’t fair to call them a bottom 3 offense. Pelicans have gotten better on offense with each game since they fired Willie Green

This is a talented team..?

Funny-Transition7869 | Pacers

yes they have a lot of young talent

ObeseBumblebee | Pistons

2 | 4 hours ago

It 100% is a talented team. That’s what’s so frustrating about the Bulls. Individually they have a ton of young talent. And they should be playing better than this.

For whatever reason this team just isn’t working despite their talent.

Constant_Charge_4528 | Bulls

We have zero presence in the paint with Vucevic out there and even less with him out

ObeseBumblebee | Pistons

2 | 2 hours ago

That’s a coaching problem honestly. You’ve got guys that should be able to handle that

Constant_Charge_4528 | Bulls

1 | 40 minutes ago

Yeah it probably is, if this team wants to be competitive we need to sort out how to defend in the paint. It’s no coincidence we get blown away by any team who primarily operate with big guys and we can stay competitive with any perimeter team.

SmokimNoah | Bulls

1 | 14 minutes ago

We’re not that talented. Bulls run teams out the gym and get hot from 3 some nights. Typical young team shit. Actually being good depended on Buzelis and Williams taking leaps (the latter is impossible).

Bottom 3 offense with Zion, Fears, Murphy playing along with NO Willie Green? lmao

AnotherStatsGuy | Pelicans

The Pelicans were ass to close the game, missed 8 FTs, the Bulls had multiple points in which they are on fire from three… and New Orleans still won by double digits and dropped over 140 on them.
