If you like what you listening to, make sure you hit that like button, punch that subscribe button. We we going to continue to bring this uh dope content. Well, I don’t know if this dope content, but out of the when I woke up this morning, I got a notification. And on that notification, it said this. Shams tweeted, “What’s the word going? What’s the business?” The Bulls and Billy Donovan started negotiations at the end of last season and continued conversations through this week amid off season planning, a brief pursuit of Donovan by the New York Knicks in the draft, free agency, and summer league. Yeah, he here to stay. Ain’t no escaping him, y’all. Chicago Bulls head coach Billy Donovan has signed a multi-year contract extension with the franchise to sources tell ESPN Donovan is viewed as a leader within the Bulls organization and will enter his sixth season in Chicago 2025 2026 with 800 NBA games coached over his career. We stuck. They don’t even tell us the particulars of the contract. They don’t even want to tell us. So, how did Billy Donovan get this contract, bro? Let’s look at his record, bro. Look at his record with the Chicago Bulls. He’s a healthy 195 and 205. He’s under 500. So, mediocre. less than mediocre. The five years he’s been here, we went to the playin tournament five times. We two and three, but we ain’t been to the playoffs but one time. And in that one playoff, we got one stinking victory against the Milwaukee Bucks. One stinking victory, bro. Now, let’s talk about Billy Donovan as our coach in the foreseeable future. Bro, it is what it is. For some strange reason, the Chicago Bulls coveted Billy Donovan. And actually, it ain’t just the Chicago Bulls. You hear players from other teams commenting on how much they love Billy Donovan and his coaching style. You heard Patrick Beverly talking about he got some [ __ ] Yeah, he got some [ __ ] All right, but how are we supposed to get past the development of young players? How are we supposed to get past the mediocre record? How we going to get get past the results in a vacuum of Billy Donovan and his coaching style? How we going to get over the results, bro? Well, it ain’t up to us to get over the results because the Chicago Bull said, “F y’all. F what y’all think. We think he’s the he’s the best choice for us in the future.” Hm. And I started to look up some things like what makes a good NBA coach. Number one, and there’s six phases. I’mma get to the comments in a minute. Make sure y’all hit that like button, subscribe if you haven’t already. Number one is basketball IQ and strategy. Mastery of X’s and O’s. Defensive matchups. Ability to adjust Midame and exploit weaknesses. Prepared with game plans tailored to each opponent. He’s mid at this. There’s some times during games where I’m frustrated with Midame adjustments. Sometimes I’m frustrated on how Nick Vu is not getting the ball in the paint. Why we ain’t taking advantage of certain matchups that we have on the floor. I get I get frustrated with Billy. He’s mid at this point. I give him mid. Number two, and there are six player relationship relationships and communications. Builds trust and respects players. understands how to motivate different personalities. Communicates clearly on expectations, roles, and feedback. What about that time with Zack Lavine was here? Y’all remember this instance between Zack, Demar, and Billy? One game, Zack Lavine has an absolute just a [ __ ] up game. He was awful turning the ball over, shooting horrible shots, and they wasn’t hitting. Billy Donovan benched him for the fourth quarter. Okay, you trying to Okay, everybody’s can get this. That’s what Billy was trying to say. Everybody can get this. But then the very next game, Demar De Rozan did the same exact thing. Maybe even worse, maybe even worse. And he kept them in. Is that building respect and trust with your players? I’mma give him a F on that. At three, accountability and leadership. Y’all remember two years ago when it was a lot of deflecting coming from the Bulls front office and Billy Donovan when we were at our fever bliston pitch about these Chicago Bulls and the effort we were seeing on the court. What did Billy do? Oh, they going to have to play better. Oh, we got the right plan. They just not they not they not um acting a plan out to the way they should be. That don’t sound like leadership and accountability. Ass. He ain’t getting none of that. On to the next one. Adaptability. Adjustes. Adjust to roster changes, injuries, trades, and evolving trends. Embraces analytics. modern play styles like pace and space and new roles. I absolutely think he does a good job with this. He do a good job at this. The Bulls played at a different pace. They shot the most three-pointers uh per game uh last season with the Chicago Bulls. You can say it took long enough, but he did adjust. adjusting rosters and stuff like that. I don’t know. I still got a Montis Boozelis take that’s coming up later and I think it it it goes into this. He held Montis back, bro. I ain’t going to forgive him for that. He calls Montes Bzelis a rookie of the year. He cost Montis Bzelis a outright invitation to the frostoff game at Allstar weekend. He did that. So, no, he doesn’t get marks for adaptability. Fifth, we got two more to go, then I’m getting to the comments. Development of talent. Maximizes young players and role players. Focuses on player growth, not just wins. Creates a system where players know how to succeed. Y’all tell me, have y’all seen Marco Samanovich? Odama Senogu just signed to some to the Shanghai Super Super Tigers yesterday. Where is Carl Jones? I just talked about Montis Buzzelis and what he has cost him. What about Noah Essen? We fearing this. We scare for Noah. So hell no to development of talent. Culture building. Culture building. I see Steo in the chat. Sets the tone for effort, teamwork, and unselfish play. Creates an identity. The team bites. We ain’t got no identity. It’s starting to come around. It looks like we see sim remnants of a identity. They want to get up and down. They force turnovers. They want to get up as must threes as possible. We just finding this out, but culture building, I don’t know about that. I ain’t dismissing it, but I don’t know. So, through all the six key things a coaches a coach needs to be a good NBA coach. I says he has about two of them. Hey man, we seen this coming, bro. Y’all know that they love Billy Donovan for some reason. Maybe a good talker. He slick talker. I don’t know. We got some info on info on on the owners on Jerry or something. But it is what it is. Now, we must continue try to support this team even though they keep doing things the opposite with what we want. I would I would bet that 70% of the Chicago Bulls fans did not want Billy Donovan as the head coach. So, somehow, some way, we must look around Billy Donovan and cheer on this team. Let’s get into the comments, bro. This There’s some wild [ __ ] to wake up to, bro. I ain’t going to lie, bro. It It It’s just It’s just wild, bro. Let’s get to the com [Music] these comments, man. Yeah, man. I know y’all pissed off, bro. I’m a little perturbed myself, bro. So, here we go. What’s up? Uh, he don’t have a name. Chicago Bulls owner suck. Hey, man. He don’t care. All he care about that bag at the end of the month, man. Or the first of the 15th or the end of the month. He just care about the bag. That’s it. I don’t think he give a damn what happens on the basketball team. What’s the word? Goon. Shout out to Goon in a building. Trash. Just just con. I understand your your sentiments, big dog. Oh, hell no. See, they surprising us all that we shouldn’t be surprised, bro. Why should we be surprised? Shout out to my boy Vonte. Why should we be surprised, bro? He this is this long. This going to be his sixth season as Chicago Bulls head coach. He just surpassed Tom Thibido. He is the third longest tenur head coach in the NBA right now. I guess it’s the way the Chicago Bulls want to build culture. They lost my man James said. Chicago, I hope you like making to the playin for the next two years with Billy. Bro, he he trying to rub it in. Michael, you true, but you trying to rub it in our face, bro. This is Bro, you trying to rub it in, bro. and James laughing at us. The only franchise that rewards losing coaches. How about what would be worse? Rewarding losing coaches or rewarding mediocre coaches and mediocre coaches that seems to be stuck where they at in mediocrity. Which one is worse? I think rewarded mediocrity is worse. What the [ __ ] Billy Billy Gumchu ass. We stuck with him. We stuck with him, y’all. It is what it is at this point. It is. What kind of secret pack do Billy in the front office have? But at the same time, who else would be a good candidate for us? Cuz I can’t think of one. There’s always a better candidate somewhere, bro. We could talk about the the specific type of coach we could bring over here. I think we need a young coach, a young innovative coach, tough with defense and innovative on the offensive end. That’s what we need, bro. JT, I guess V going to be back, too. Hey, he better not. Hold on. Hold on, bro. What’s wrong with you, JT? JT, bro, what you want, bro? Trying to give me a a twitch or a glitch. Bobby on his way back home. He was he was traveling uh throughout the weekend. He should be back a little bit later. Yes, V is going back this year. He might get an extension, too. Y’all see see y’all coming in here to troll me, bro. Shout out to Michael, bro. We already in the dumps. Do not compound my headache, please. Michael, appreciate the love, though, Mike. Reason number two, I don’t care about this team. It even gave my man Steo more ammo. Y’all know how hard is this going to be to deal with Steo now, bro. And I get it with Steo. It’s going to be hard, bro. Now, it already was hard. Thanks, Chicago Bulls. What’s the word? Jay Kapone. Shout out to my boy Jay Vog in the building. I was just telling Steo that Billy Donovan is an elite Hall of Fame head coach. But only problem is that was all during his collegiate career been mid on the NBA stage. And this is 100% correct. He had a spark when he started with the OKC Thunder. They went to the Western Conference Finals, but now you’re just garbage to finish that bar. And yeah, he’s a uh first Ballet Hall of Famer, basketball hall of famer. He got two national championships with Florida University or the University of Florida. But as a NBA coach, mediocre if you add everything into a vacuum. Meaty ochre. Emphasis on ochre. [ __ ] this franchise. We mad today. We upset. You got my boy JT upset, bro. A bum off the street that don’t know about basketball is a better coach than Billy. Bro, that might be right, bro. Is that anger talking? He ain’t a bum at coaching, but he’s been mediocre here. Jordan, what up though? Get over it. You knew he was coming back on. We knew it. But it hurts when you get the news, Mr. Cynical Jordan. Sweetie, it hurts. The Wizards wouldn’t even made this mistake. That’s crazy. That’s a crazy thing to say and it might be true. The Wizards wouldn’t even made this mistake. They can pay Billy, but they can’t pay Giddy. This is crazy to me. Pay Giddy. What is the What What’s the numbers on this damn deal with with PE with Billy Donovan? Why y’all don’t want to tell us? [ __ ] Shout out to my man Rub. What’s good, Cub? Finally catching y’all live, man. Shout out to you. I’m glad you caught up with us, big dog. Shout out to my man RDub. The old school magic. I guess Pat getting extended too at this rate. He got extended last year. This is a constant barrage of bombing of bad news from the Chicago Bulls. Bro, I need a coach at a lower level. D1 coach that won like 500 plus games. Okay, that’s interesting. I [ __ ] with that. Steo Billy Donovan a [ __ ] He makes more money. Damn, Adam. Those real coaches. I see what you’re saying. Uh, the guys in the trenches, the guys in the mud, they don’t get get as much pub as the guys at Arkansas, the guys at Kentucky, the guys at um, Illinois, Duke. Those are the guys setting the new wave. Those are the guys though. Big big guys like Florida and Kentucky. Those the guys they copy from. I know where you coming from. Steo r dub. Billy D getting extended isn’t a surprise. Once Nicks asked to interview Hume, they got jealous and rushed to a deal. Yep. But the reports is that the Bulls and Billy Donovan been in negotiation about this extension since last year. So they always been talking about extending Billy Donovan. They love him. My man Jay say Bulls and Sky are pissing me off, bro. There’s some [ __ ] going on with the sky, too. I’mma have to do my research. I’m not really in tune, but I’mma do my research. See what’s going on over there. Billy Schmes only work for college. What would you think of Stacy King? That’s an option. Z King would be awesome cuz he’s not your everyday run-of-the-mill coach. He has sat back and watched the game as a player and as a commentator for the last what half century or something like that 40 years, 30 years. He knows the nuances inside and out of what today’s game needs. He would be an excellent candidate. Why you do Why do you complain so much? You know how the Bulls work. They want Yes, man. coaches. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but if you really pay attention, he hasn’t been that bad of a coach. He hasn’t been that good of a coach either, Jordan, sweetie. And that is the point of my topic here. He’s been mediocre. He hasn’t been good. He hasn’t been bad. And they just keep rewarding mediocrity. when we going to try something different. That’s all I’m saying. But it is his fault if you can’t develop young players. If you if your team steady getting bounced out in the playin tournament. If you uh continuously have guards guarding uh centers. I could get petty all day. Oke magic. I’m dead. They did tell Bulls got 20 million. [Music] Willie, I know about this. Steve Vo. Uh, I wouldn’t pay Billy to train or coach my dog. Damn. Mike got jokes, bro. I rock with Mike, bro. Shout out to Mike, bro. If we ever move on from Donovan at some point in the future, give me a young experienced veteran. Coach examples would be Nate Oaks from Alabama. Two would be Shaka Smart currently at Marquette. Shaka Smart is it is is an interesting name. Shaka Smart. Okay. Okay. Shaka Smart is interesting. I’m not opposed to that. But a young innovative young coach would be good for me. You want to experience veteran cro young veteran coach? You want an experienced young veteran coach? Okay. Okay. Like um what’s the guy from the Sam Cassell or something like that? You mean something like that? Or you mean uh what about the guy with the assistant coach with the Chicago Bulls? This is an interesting subject. I got to do some more looking into that too. Steo, one playoff win in five years. He ain’t good. Well, man, it is what it is, y’all. Make sure y’all hit that like button. Punch that subscribe button. We got some more comments. Do you ever wonder how this team will be run when Michael R takes over? AK need sets no goals. So, how can they hold Billy Donovan to any standard? That’s a great That’s a great point. That’s a great point. The only person with real goals that I’ve heard in the last couple months is Montes Buzzel. He said he wants to bring the city a championship. He want to bring winning back to the city of Chicago. That’s the only goals I’ve been hearing from the Chicago boys is from Montes Buzellis and his players. So, make sure y’all stay tuned for later on. We going to bring some more stuff. Um, y’all the best in the world. Hit that like button, subscribe, and we’ll be coming back.

I’m not opposed to that. Make sure y’all hit that like button on your way out. Chicago Bulls fans, man. We got the toughest in the world,

  1. This is why i hate that getcha $$$ cliche man F him and his money get off my team Bro u gotta go gang rakakakaka 🔫

  2. AK, Mark and Billy are just wasting our time, no center to dump the ball into and bad defense. AK isn't a good talent evaluater

  3. Real talk Billy Donovan is a good coach and the front office loves his basketball philosophy. It's been obvious the Bulls want stability and view themselves as family members. Bulls fan since '82 Go Bulls!
