At least Kings have never been intentionally bad. Ethical bad basketball

That’s because ¹⁄₃ of the league was always bad. But they had to be worse in order to get a better chance at drafting a top pick.

Now they’ll be bad and potentially not get anything.

Someone has to lose

The Bulls kinda got boned by the new rules. We were mediocre for a decade with some fans begging for a real tank which we never did…then we finally decide to sell and get bad and the NBA decides that now it’s better to be mid than to tank.

The only silver lining to the whole thing is that we were able to jump some spots in the draft last year to get Wilson, without that we’d have nothing.

Just a reminder that the anti tanking rules were primarily implemented to appease the gambling companies. The only difference between now and the past is bad teams have nothing to hope for.

Seasons like this happen, there’s a big difference in teams being ass (+injuries) and teams straight up giving up, not playing players, pulling starters out etc

And it’s too early anyway

Tanking was never an actual problem, just Silver virtue signaling.

To all the people responding to me, that has always been the case and has not been a problem, it’s just gambling companies pressuring him cuz it fucks with their money. Teams have always tanked and tried to lose to get a better player in the draft, anyone surprised by it wasn’t actually a fan. Now it’s just tank to miss the playin but be good enough to not be bottom 3. Nothing has really changed except truly bad teams getting fucked more.

Going to be awkward when a 15 win team that’s just buns and not tanking falls to #10 in the draft.

You say that like the hawks aren’t guaranteed to lose to the bulls on friday

Shit happens😌

last year we got bonafide bad teams sitting their best players. this year we get bonafide bad teams playing their best players. yay?

Considering the last 11 years or so, this is just Thursday for the Bulls.

We can’t even tank cause of the new rules

Tank is one to pair the next big thing with Caleb

Clax looked good yesterday tho!

Decade of hell*

Sacrificed the bulls for the bears

If there was one team that needed to be taken down a peg, it was definitely the Bulls.

Different hands, too. What is up with the bones in his hands?

His free throw percentage dropped from 80+% to like 60s

That’s crazy considering he only has 2 hands

I remember during the draft process asking why Darren Peterson was this massive injury risk where at the same time people just brushed off Caleb Wilson injuring his hands over and over and missing chunks of time.

People need to realize that multiple “freak injuries” is not something just to ignore. People who have a history of getting injured will probably keep getting injured.

I wonder if something is off mechanically about his form causing these injuries

Naz is lucky he’s alive at this point

Training with the monks has made Wemby’s elbow stronger

Wemby’s elbow sharp like a pencil ✏️

Lethal weapons

This dudes elbows is sharp asf

“Elbows too pointy ³⁄₁₀”

Damn of all injuries had to be his hand!

he is out of the rotation currently 😭

Don’t worry, their other big acquisition in that trade Rob Dillingham will pick up the slack…..oh wait, shit

Man United vs Bulls the ultimate past glory relegation showdown

Clippers points penalty for 114 financial fair play charges might save you.

Not if the Bucks have something to say about it

If you’re going to be relegated this is the year to do it.

Welcome brothers.

I still feel like Brooklyn, Sac, and NO will fuck up bad enough to be the bottom 3 by season’s end.

We have the watch now. We’ll see you in Valhalla, Bulls fam

Twinsies!

Just play us again and you’ll be fine

We’re just praying Buzelis steps it up. He’s technically the #2 option on the team, but this season has been rough looking for him so far. To be fair, the Bulls have had one of the toughest schedules thus far.

no grank it up. bring them all down to the mud with us.

He went for a steal on Wemby and his fingers looked like they got bent back hitting Wemby’s elbow

It was strange. He double teamed Wemby and swiped at the ball. Maybe caught some of Wemby’s arm.

He hit wembys elbow reaching in for ball

I don’t get how this makes silver’s anti tanking measures look bad? It’s November, yes the Bulls should still put their best foot forward instead of resting everyone to intentionally get L’s.

no

against Miami he fractured his left hand attempting to block a 3, when he fell and had to brace himself on the floor

in practice near the end of season, he broke his right thumb dunking the ball

against the Spurs he fractured his right hand swiping at the ball and hitting Wemby’s elbow

You dont wanna see Calebs comeback and ascention to an All NBA level player?
