We would like to offer the chance to our fellow Floridians, the Orlando Magic, to take our place as the defenders of the Play In while we keep a higher seed this year

TBF we did that last year as well

Yes but the true role of defender is having to beat the Bulls for the 8th seed, bonus points if it’s done in dramatic fashion

They just beat Cleveland with Garland playing and Mitchell dropping a 40 piece don’t make me be more optimistic about your team than you are.

I don’t think that’s fair, Phoenix has been holding strong so far. In fact, they actually started the season pretty rough, and have been getting better as its gone on.

Starveiled | Hornets

11 | 5 hours ago

Managed to win this one despite another cold streak from Kon. If he can get over that with Brandon still popping off, this could be a pretty nice offense.

^(Don’t think about the defense though.)

OutsideMammoth

10 blocks this game, and yet your comment about the defense is still sadly true

Vegetable-Tooth8463 | Hornets

For a second I thought you mean Brandon alone had 10 blocks and thought that’s excellent, only to realize no, that was the entire team total lmao

Starveiled | Hornets

I am happy that they were at least trying on defense. They are real real bad, but they are trying lol

WaffleConeHat | Hornets

Wtf happened to the Bulls

Their oponents to start the year shot horribly against them for no reason. Through their first 5 4 games their oponents shot 26% from three. Starting 5-0 was fake as hell.

dangheckinpupperino | Hawks

7 | 5 hours ago

That outlier shooting wasn’t going to last forever

They’re a team full of very solid guys like 10 deep which is rare, and can let you compete against anyone, but they also don’t have over the top talent, so they are susceptible to head scratching losses too. As a hawks fan, I’ve been there and may still be there (time will tell with this roster) so this doesn’t come out of malice.

dank-kush | Hornets

10 | 5 hours ago

Lamelo still gotta not be 100 brother his shooting performances lately have been disgusting, he’s not the most efficient guy but he also isn’t this bad.

Drak_is_Right | Pacers

-2 | 4 hours ago

Eh. He is an average starting PG. Nothing more.

dank-kush | Hornets

8 | 4 hours ago

Yea I’m not entertaining this bait lol

Drak_is_Right | Pacers

-2 | 3 hours ago

Luka, Shai, Maxey, Brunson, Curry, Mitchell, Cade, Haliburton - 8 definitely better

Then we have ones about on his par:

Garland, Lamelo, Murray, Irving, Fox, Harden, Morant, Lillard, Reaves, and Young making up (in some order) spots 9 through 18.

So IMO, anyone in the 12-18 range for PG is an AVERAGE starting PG. I am also probably forgetting someone.

LouieM13 | NYK

I might get shot for this, but Coby White seems like a bad fit on this team.

I know the bulls need his defense and shooting, but the offense doesn’t seem to flow when he plays.

Full_Durian_8171

shots he used to drive and kick out on he is now shooting contested and missing.

There were definitely fans wondering if he would fit in the rotation when he came back. Not saying that question is answered, but it was definitely a thought. There’s always a risk of that.

SmokimNoah | Bulls

His defense? His shooting yes but Coby isn’t a strong defender he’s a hustler though.

I don’t think he hurts the team, our entire team was just hot and have cooled off when he came back from injury. It wasn’t going to last either way.

Dropping two in a row to Pelicans and Hornets should hurt but I don’t care today. Still on the Bear down high.

I thought we might be fighting for 6 at least this year with the weakened East but maybe we’ll be right where we were last year. Dread it, run from it, the playins arrive all the same.
