Shoutout to Matas and Giddey also Vuc
Standout performance from Vooch, letting everybody know he can still hoop at a high level.
We gotta learn how to put teams away. No excuse to be giving away a 23-point lead.
2nd half of last season bulls were at the top for second half finishes. Coby got most of his points in the second half and went off in fourth quarters frequently. The whole preseason bulls were criticised for slow starts and they responded great. It's good that they didn't blow this game and we're still able to fight to the end and cope with the strong finish from Detroit. As the season goes they need to win these games and they did.
Bulls 4th quatre is a mess
Was a great way to start the season
Pistons were only shooting high 20% from three. It was always going to pick up as the game went on. It was good to weather the storm
You made an excellent point about why Tre Jones should be in the starting line-up, or why he should've been in today.
Donovan foresaw how Detroit, and most likely others, might try to defend Giddey, and I believe that is exactly why Jones helps in the starting line-up.
Vooch clearly didn't give a shit about preseason because he's 34 and had zero reason to care. He showed up to avoid the fine.
Vooch needs to get some props Haize
Man I'm convinced that the Bulls need to start building around Matas. He could be the superstar that the Bulls need and maybe Matas can attract free agents
It always good to see the team games like this especially since we are still without Coby the Pistons defense was though.
Glad they got da Dub but Iono I just dont like HOW they won, the game should have never been that close at the end! Had they played a slightly better team they probably would have ended up losing this game after being up like that and giving up the lead.
Issac cool on defense but him not being able to score damn near at all gon hurt the team more than it helps as the season goes on if he dnt pick it up! We cant have a mfkr dat only attempt two shots a game especially wit Coby being out
Even tho he had a decent game, I still want Vuc off this team
I got a decision to make. Pull up to the 🌹 jersey retirement game in a Rose jersey or a Buzelis jersey🤔
Yooo…… Bullls Win!!!!!!
The reason we won — and people aren't going to want to hear this — is probably because Kobe White didn't play. Look at Trey Jones' box score: 12 points. I don't even see the rest, but I'm going to guess he didn't take 25 shots, okay? It was team basketball. Team basketball.
All we need from Kobe is a consistent 15 points a night on efficient shooting, while not being a traffic cone. If he can do that, we can win games. What we can’t have is him showing up and going 18 for 20 one night and then 2 for 20 for the next four games. That’s why we were losing last season, and the seasons before that with him on the team.
Meanwhile everyone is focused on p will. Sure, pat can do better and be better. But we largely arent losing bc of him.
