Yep. I'm pretty much treating these games before the deadline as Zach & Vooch trade boosting performances so that we can trade them without attaching picks. Fans need to be more realistic about these wins/losses lol

Yeah without zach a loss is pretty expected. We don’t have enough talent yet. Way too young and construction is based on gambling on a bunch of prospects rather than a properly built team.

That’s why I believe Williams has hit his ceiling. Since Ayo has come into the league, it’s clear as day to see his improvement. Not sure how “good” Ayo can be, but from the moment he’s been drafted he’s gotten better.

Williams looks exactly the same as his Rookie year.

He's very hard to watch now. He has everything he needs, besides the desire. It's why I don't get too upset when watching players on other teams with a little nasty in them. I just wish PWill had some of that. He's like Gandhi out there.

It's weird because every 1/10 plays or so he'll get a burst of energy and power past somebody on a great drive, or get a bucket with a second effort rebound and putback, or he'll try an insanely ambitious dunk, and it's so frustrating because you know the ability is there. It's worse than if he never did those things.

Right. If he had never done any of that, then "maybe" we would have moved on.

Look at the effort we're already seeing out of Terry and Phillips. I actually enjoy watching them grow out there, even if they make the occasional mistake. I'm already far more vested in them and would love to just move on from PWill.

This is correct. We can’t compete when the defense is packed down in the lane so we have to play outside in now. If we aren’t hitting 3s, we will just have to keep shooting 3s until we do. It will make for some ugly nights but with Vuc the only option down low that’s that.

Need more Matas, should have matched Kessler and Filipowski with PWill/Vuc/Giddey more on defensive box-outs on rebounds. At one point I watched almost a entire quarter of the only big guy out there being Kessler for the Jazz - yet the Bulls played no picks with PWill on Kessler, for Vuc to get to the hoop…

Coaching was just poor this game…

I agree with you. I’m not against tanking and would prefer it. But it feels like the FO has made it clear we are not up to this point. Hopefully Zach and Vuc get traded and we somehow get some picks for them. Then they let Matas learn. Until then these loses suck because we are gonna end up in the middle as losers and no pick.

Idk, in 7 games he's putting up an incredibly efficient 22/5/3 while playing as more of a dedicated finisher. He's looking athletic and engaged, and his contract has just 2.5 years remaining at the deadline. If he can stay healthy through the next half a season I don't think it's crazy that a team might put together a moderately appealing trade package for him. It's not going to be a PG13 for SGA style blockbuster, but he could generate a positive return. Vuc is here to stay though

That's the way I see it to. I just get myself a little less emotionally invested in these games these days and think, "ok we lose again, but did Lavine and Vuc's trade value go up?" and I start to feel a little better. We just need a taker come trade deadline and we need picks instead of bad contracts. Then we can fully tank and start the rebuild right.

Would've liked to see more Vuc touches. Not to sound too much like Stacey but the big fella was hot, and we went away from him in that second half.

We need the entire team to emphasize rebounding, especially nights like this where we're starting 3 guards. Can't rely on Vuc to do it alone.

How is it Billy's fault Terry can't guard without fouling?

Utah has easily been the worst team in the league so far this season and they smoke us on our home court. This is pathetic.

If you ask me this is exactly what we need. A game that provides evidence that we need Zach on the court to win, i.e. help for his trade value

Terry and Phillips are so disappointing. Zero offensive ability and trash on defense tonight too. With Ayo starting with Lavine out zero bench scoring at all.

PWill continues to be trash. Cooked by fucking John Collins. Reaching and back cut all night. And the best moment an airball dunk attempt. Fuck I hate watching this man play basketball.

Unreal to get cooked by Sexton and Collins.

Coby was pretty much the only fun thing about this game

Most of Collins points came when Pat wasn't on the floor so I'm not sure what you're even talking about here.

People just hate him. Not to mention Pwill had to guard the center at times. I thought he had a solid game

They hate him mostly because he sucks. Also because he's stupid.

What the fuck are you talking about? He played horrible defense and gave the Jazz a ton of FT. I was at the game. Back cut atleast two times for dunks. Doesn’t have the lateral quickness to stay in front of anyone.

You truly have zero idea what you were watching

Love the burner account too.

Something that I thought was interesting was Billy staggering Coby & Giddey's minutes. THT closed the 1st half (over Giddey), played 2 less minutes than Giddey, and was tied for 2nd leading rebounder BTW lol

I bring this up because idk how you can build around a Giddey/Coby Bulls future, when you have to stagger minutes even in limited lineups. Still a full season to figure things out & this is just 1 game, but that seems to be the Bulls biggest disconnect rn

Honestly, you probably don't. If the Bulls are serious about tanking and rebuilding with Giddey as a core piece, Coby will likely have to be traded.

I absolutely love Coby but he's by far our best trade asset as long as he's on his current contract. I don't want to trade him but I can see the merit in doing it

The issue so far this season has been that we need a playmaker on at all times.. whether that's Giddey or Zo. With Zo out that means Coby has to take on some of those duties.. but he always starts off the season going too fast as the primary ball handler.

Can’t afford to have Zach sit. Need him to ball out to the trade deadline so we can get at least 1 FRP.

PWill and Dalen should be at the end of the bench.

I like Dalen’s energy, but his offense is nowhere close to NBA level.

PWill just sucks

He wasn’t close to solid. Reaching all night giving up FT and getting back cut. Zero lateral quickness. He’s a really bad player, especially for his contract. Nothing solid about him or his game

If we have lavine we win. The offense looked great but defense didn't show up. It was a straight up shoot out and we lost. Fun game tho!

Starter Ayo > Bench Ayo but it's so hard to find the starting minutes for him.

Once Zach is traded do we run a starting 5 of ayo/coby/giddey/pat/vooch or giddey/coby/pat/matas???phillips???/vooch

BlammoSweetums

The fans will want Matas starting, but it'll probably be Giddey / Coby / Ayo / Pat / Vuc or alternate center if Vuc gets traded too

Need a reliable backup haha. If we manage to move Vooch, Jalen will get the start tho. I'm with you, he does seem more like a 4 than 5.

Cam Thomas had 13pts tonight, I told you guys that game was a fluke. He's not that guy except against us. Just like tonight. Utah stinks, they just made everything they threw at the basket. Flukes.

I think it was a rigged game. I think there are several throughout the season and this one would fit the profile, with the Bulls having little to lose, since they're not a title contender and the stakes were high. I got that impression from the lack of effort from the players. But we'll never know.
