This Chicago Bulls Team Makes No Sense

This Chicago Bulls Team Makes No Sense

I said this in my last postgame video which the Bulls pulled off one of the more impressive wins on their season beating the best defensive team in the NBA in the Minnesota timber roles on the road of course this coming off a very bad loss against the Brooklyn Nets in

Which they allowed 25 threes to that team the game before that holding the Pacers to less than 100 points for the first time in that team season the game before losing to a g-league Wizards lineup I said it then that this team makes zero sense and that became even

Further apparent after following up a great win to then coming home and playing against the team they’re fighting for playing positioning and homecourt advantage in that first playing game and get blown out by the Atlanta Hawks a Hawks team that has been going through their own share of

Injuries as of late including to their star player and Trey young and you get blown out at home and I know it wasn’t technically by the definition of a blowout like the Bulls never Trail by more than 20 points in this game they were still more and less in it even

Halfway through the fourth quarter but outside of that 11-0 start where you thought okay the Bulls got this they’re going to pick up where they left off from last night aside from that start the Hawks controlled this game they already regained the lead by the end of

The first quarter and led for pretty much the rest of the game and for most of it with a double digigit lead and look I get it the Bulls are playing in the second game of backto back it’s the end of the season guys are tired and

Let’s be real the Hawks have been playing very well recently and have been playing a lot better without Trey young I’m sure you all saw that crazy stat they showed last night in the broadcast going from dead last in the NBA on defense to 13th in defensive rating

Since the All-Star break it’s pretty telling and you’ve also just seen how much better that team fits overall with jontay Murray acting as the league guard so while this loss is frustrating I’m not going to sit here and say that this is a game the Bulls absolutely should

Have won they needed to win it to really give them enough separation from the Hawks to secure the ninth seed but it’s not like this is a game in which the Bulls lost to the Wizards who were giving their two-way players starting level minutes but what frustrates me the

Most and again this isn’t anything new with this team simply put they cannot get their act together and actually show any semblance of consistent play you can blame it on the roster construction not having the right guys to get the most out of the team poor coaching Demar

Pounding the ball not pushing the pace vich clanking threes whatever the fact of the matter is these guys just don’t play hard enough not all of them some give maximum effort every game but for the most part these guys don’t play hard enough on a consistent basis if they did

You would see more winning because as we’ve said before it’s not like this team doesn’t have talent they may not have the Superstar level Talent they may not have enough talent to be a contending team but they have enough talent to be better than a sub 500 Squad

They don’t give consistent effort and it’s why you see these waves and up and down performances on a nightly basis guys don’t come ready to play and when that happens well you see what happens in a Bulls team that has been on display for us all season long so while I’m not

Mad at this loss when just looking at it in isolation it’s just a macro view of this team and what we’ve been seeing all year Bulls defense tonight after that 110 run was terrible how do you let vit craie whatever his name is I don’t even

Know how you pronounce his name but if it’s a player you barely recognize how do you allow him to light you up from three going six for six bogdanovich barely missed tonight Matthews put up three threes you gave up 19 threes to the Atlanta Hawks who were a good

Three-point shooting team but how is it that that’s not part of your scouting report and knowing they thrive on the and you’re barely attacking Closeouts and leaving guys wide open in some instances and I mean the defense aside the Bulls offense was horrendous as well they shot 39% from the field 25% from

Three after having one of their best three-point shooting nights on the season last night they had 17 assists in this entire game the bulls actually crashed the offensive glass well and snag 16 offensive boards in large part thanks to Drummond who had half of those but they could not convert on those

Second Chance opportunities Caruso struggled with his shooting after coming off that insane night shooting in Minnesota was 3 for 13 overall two for seven from three Kobe white like Caruso also two for seven from Deep shot eight for 21 overall vuich only got up seven shots in this game had five points total

Did a good job rebounding the ball with 14 boards but you need vvi scoring in games like this and the Bulls need to be going inside more when the three-point shot isn’t Falling vuich A minus 12 in this game and was struggling to find his place in the offense that Billy Donan

Started going with Drummond who was really the only positive outside of demard Rosen in this game Drummond who posted a double double in just 10 minutes of play would go on to finish the game with a ridiculous 13 points 18 rebounds outscoring and out rebounding

Nicola vuvi and then yeah I mean Demar D rozan was doing everything he possibly could to keep this team in the game but the Bulls can’t rely on dear so much not with the kind of minutes he’s been putting in this season in his 15th year

In the league other guys need to be able to step up dear ended the game with 31 points on 10 for 23 shooting did what he does B in getting the foul line led the Bulls and assist tonight with five also had two steals but yeah I mean there is

Just so much that you can ask of demard De rozan with everything that he’s been doing for this team you know I would like to see btim in these types situations a little more where the Bulls are struggling to knock down threes where they’re struggling to get their

Offense going I know that things have kind of quieted down from the initial btim Mania but he’s a good shooter and also decent enough at creating his own shot that I would like to see him getting minutes in the rotation over someone like dalen Terry or Javon Carter

In a game like that but Tim only came in in the last few minutes when it was garbage time but I don’t know not like it really would have mattered in this game considering the Bulls were just not engaged after the Hawks came roaring back from that initial 110 start the

Bulls are going to be off until Friday so a good amount of rest in between now and then all while staying in Chicago before taking on one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference in the New York Knicks at the United Center I’m going to

Be honest I will not be shocked if the Bulls come out and win this game it would just be the perfect storyline that we have been seeing from the this team all year it’s crazy because the Bulls just have six games left on the season with three of them being against the

Knicks and you know the Nicks are going to be trying it’s not like they’re going to be resting guys when they actually have a shot with just a few games separating the three and the six seed in the East right now they’re going to be playing until the very last game what’s

Funny is the Bulls have to win out to finish above 500 at this point winning their remaining six games which we know is not going to happen and they have to go 5- one to just finish at 500 that elusive goal they have been trying to achieve all season long it’s been some

Season man some season I need to start looking and doing my research on draft prospects because I have no idea what some of these late lottery mid first round projections are going to be in this draft where the bulls actually have their pick this year so I need to start

Getting in on that doing some further digging but anyway I’ll have some more content out here as well as on the NBA channel before the next Bulls game so as always be sure to subscribe and I will see you in the next one
