Remember when the Bulls started out on fire this season?

Full_Durian_8171

28 | a day ago

everyone went from above average shooters to below average shooters. opposing teams were shooting 25% from 3, now they back to shooting 40%+ as they leak a lot of open 3s because vuc is a fucking pathetic rim protector

here_for_the_lols | Thunder

3 | 21 hours ago

No hate but how does a bad rim protector mean a lot of open 3s. Surely a bad rim protector encourages other teams to go to the rim

lexington59

20 | 21 hours ago

They get to the rim teams collapse to stop the rim attempt, and they kick out to the open man because you need 2 people to guard the rim when your rim protector is so awful

Full_Durian_8171

9 | 21 hours ago

because giddey and matas who usually play towards the wings are constantly leaving their man to help vuc defend the paint

Neuroxex | Bucks

2 | 16 hours ago

It’s my favourite bit every year where a team will have a stretch of opponents shooting like 28% from three against them and their fans do the Tobias Funke ‘but it might work with us’ meme

Secondary92 | Australia

4 | a day ago

Naturally, win just enough games to start the season for a false sense of competency, and now they have an excuse not to do anything for another year because of “flashes”.

The problem is ownership, so nothing is ever going to change until they’re gone.

NotManyBuses | Charlotte Bobcats

67 | a day ago

Happy for the Nets and their fans. They have a really long team that plays hard, I can see the embers of something forming there. An emphasis on positional size and everyone being able to dribble/pass/shoot. I liked Clowney a lot and Demin seems to be something. Powell great defender and athlete. Not sure on the other picks but if you add a star prospect to it there’s a solid foundation.

Good for them

KingdomHeartsII | Nets

As someone who’s fully bought into the vision and these rookies, seeing comments like this makes me so fucking happy. These guys played their hearts out tonight and it led to a much deserved win!

kaiWarDun | Nets

Wolf is super impactful too this team just needs a young star

NotManyBuses | Charlotte Bobcats

-11 | a day ago

Hm has he? In the games against us he looked like a pretty big liability… but I suppose he is a mismatch for most guys with his dribbling at that size.

kaiWarDun | Nets

23 | a day ago

You cannot be talking about last game man

Padulsky21 | Nets

10 | a day ago

I wonder if he’s confusing him for someone else bc he was a dawg against them last game

BabyLeVert | Nets

you didnt even mention Wolf, who’s been terrific! We started becoming exciting and having close losses/winning since he’s been in the closing lineups.

Feels so good seeing the team start to click man they play great team ball.

BruceBrownMVP | Nets

There’s 29 teams in this league that will never see a frontcourt of MPJ/Clowney/Claxton and it makes me sad for y’all.

And the main man Day’ron Sharpe off the bench with 7 boards, 2 steals and 2 blocks in 12 minutes.

MichaelPorterTruther

4 | 17 hours ago

Egor/MPJ/Clowney/Wolf/Claxton lineup where you have a 6’8 PG and everyone else is 6’10+. Brutal.

4 guys who shoot 3s, 5 guys who rebound. Everyone cuts. 3 great passers.

Everytime this lineup sees the floor they start beating the brakes off teams

LinuxUbuntuOS | Nets

MPJ and Clowney both combined for 53, crazy

SquimJim | Celtics

Claxton with the near triple double too

Padulsky21 | Nets

8 | 18 hours ago

He’s been a fantastic playmaker this year and the coolest part is seeing that about 70% from the line. He’s been 50% his entire career and had the infamous hack a Clax moment in the postseason against you guys. He put in some fucking work

kaiWarDun | Nets

8 | a day ago

Mpj and Clowney are markkanen 2.0 and 3.0 respectively

LinuxUbuntuOS | Nets

10 | a day ago

Clowney is only 21 years old so he could be a serious option for the Nets future

LinuxUbuntuOS | Nets

That CJ trade has been looking insanely one sided, I know it’s early but MPJ has been playing out of his mind

nutsygenius | NBA

13 | a day ago

He played the playoffs with 1 shoulder.

Eatingolivesoutofjar

-10 | a day ago

CJ is playing as the 4th option and MPJ has the ultimate green light, their numbers were never going to be comparable. Johnson is the better fit and is on a good contract, I don’t think Denver will regret anything

GiddeysDiddyParty

18 | 21 hours ago

where are yall getting better fit from? MPJ won a title in Denver

latman | Nets

9 | 21 hours ago

MPJ as a 1st option is more efficient than CJ is as a 4th option. That’s not a good thing for CJ

GuessTraining | Nets

8 | 20 hours ago

Denver only let MPJ go because of contract issues not fit

Bulls just don’t play hard enough. Outside of Giddey, the only guy who brought good energy tonight was Julian Phillips. Rest of them are just going through the motions

SmokimNoah | Bulls

Been an issue throughout Billy Donovan’s time here. 3 different iterations of squads, the same big issues

ndashr | Nets

Why does Vucevic carry himself as if he deserves to be in a better situation? Dude, you’re not a star being wasted on a mediocre team. You are the mediocrity.

ClaymoresRevenge | Bulls

4 | 20 hours ago

He probably doesn’t want to be on a shit team but he’s not making it any better for himself to be traded.

We gave away too much for him, should’ve traded him before we extended him and now his bad attitude is hurting the team.

Fire everybody

ndashr | Nets

3 | 20 hours ago

Does he realize any organization that employs him as a starting center is destined to be a shit team? In a hindsight, we can safely say it wasn’t Aaron Gordon’s fault those Magic squads never won a playoff game! What are Bulls holding out for by keeping him? You can’t get what you gave up for him back, so stop digging. Take the second-round picks and at least let Giddey have fun passing to younger bigs who have something to play for.

Quentin Post or Trayce Jackson-Davis would be totally fine!

ClaymoresRevenge | Bulls

1 | 20 hours ago

Our front office is the equivalent of throwing shit at the wall and as it slides down proclaiming it’s a success.

The ownership is not looking to compete but sell enough merch and tickets to stay profitable.

This organization from the top down needs an overhaul.

SELL THE TEAM JERRY!

ndashr | Nets

3 | 19 hours ago

Would fully leaning into a rebuild/culture change really hurt tickets or merch sales? It might help!

Even the Nets, red-headed stepchild of NYC sports, are managing to sell out the arena in a year they quadrupled-down on being terrible by drafting four rookie point guards (or point centers, in Danny Wolf’s case). Bulls should be a glamour/legacy franchise on par with the Lakers or Celtics…the fanbase would obviously stick through a few years of real pain if there was a plan they could trust.

Like, I know Jerry Reinsdorf’s only ambition is making the play-in so he makes a few extra million dollars by having another home game every season… But he’s actively depressing the value of his asset by billions. Masai Ujiri or Bob Myers would jump at the challenge of returning Chicago to glory. Hell, Rich Paul might listen to an offer. You’re the Chicago Bulls! Aim higher!

SmokimNoah | Bulls

2 | 20 hours ago

Vuc has had a bad attitude his entire time as a Bull. I used to not be able to stand him. I felt somewhat bad for him because playing with DeRozan, he did sacrifice his inside game. But he’s been mad inconsistent post DeRozan as well. And his lack of defensive effort when he’s frustrated is terrible vet behavior

They aint making the playoffs at this current level of play

EdwardBlizzardhands

4 | 21 hours ago

It’s weird, they obviously started great, then they hit a stretch of tough games right when Giddey got injured, so no surprises they stacked up a few losses. But now they have completely fallen apart. Their last string of games have been mostly against tanking teams and they still haven’t won.

KingdomHeartsII | Nets

20 | a day ago

This was easily the most fun Brooklyn Nets game in a very, very, very long time guys.

YodaForceGhost | Nets

Which means he’ll be gone at the deadline. I’ve actually enjoyed seeing him play despite the fact he’s a doofus off the court

Overwatch3 | Nets

3 | 17 hours ago

When has Sean Marks ever traded a player of MPJ’s caliber at the deadline without being forced because of a trade request? I’d put big money MPJ is here in the summer. Marks for whatever reason is always reluctant to make big moves mid season.

Zloggt | Bulls

…one must wonder when to hit the panic button…

procouchpotatohere | Bulls

9 | 21 hours ago

Yeah, I’m starting to worry we might miss out on our yearly loss to Miami in the play-ins/s

ndashr | Nets

7 | 20 hours ago

It’s so obvious Miami is going to go on another patented Cinderella run to become Eastern Conference champs this year…and get bludgeoned in five games by OKC (or whoever upsets them in the WCF). Adam Silver needs to veto any Bucks trade that sends Giannis west. This level of conference imbalance is a downward spiral that will destroy the NBA.

MddlingAges | Knicks

2 | 13 hours ago

The NFL grew a lot when the NFC was dominant. And the Celtics just won two seasons ago.

OKC’s dominance is a problem, maybe, if it continues for two seasons, one to break records, the next one would be demoralizing, IF it happens.

But there’s a lot of basketball to be played yet. Lot of smart coaches in the league. A lot of draft picks. Wemby. And a lot of injuries to come, no doubt.

DrakouliasII | Bulls

3 | 21 hours ago

We can make fun of the Bulls all we want but they may be the worse team in the league right now. Giddey was a nice pick up but this team has needed to be blown up for about 3 years now. Really terrible time to be a Bulls fan.

MPJ - Clowney - Claxton frontcourt is super fun vs other mid teams. Speaking about mid teams, I was surprised at how awful The Bulls looked tonight. They were on a Cinderella run to start the season.

Claxton was an assist and 2 rebounds shy of his 2nd career triple-double. I wanted that for him.

Danny Wolf had a pretty mid again in front of his family and 100 of his friends tonight in his homecoming. Tonight I saw some of the cons against him, he was reckless with the ball had 6 TOs and only 4 rebounds as a big man.

latman | Nets

Wolf has basically been playing as a jumbo wing, not as a big

Bulls have one of the worst defenses ever right now in the past 10 games. Bulls didn’t give up 120pts again, but they can’t stop anybody
