Real talk 12 min not a good game to nite
Look this is Chicago and remember winning is contagious maybe they get something from the Bears 💪✌️
I feel like alot of those fouls on Matas was bs
Man I don't know if I'm believing what I'm seeing?
For the 1st time in a long while….I'm very enthusiastic about this team.
Playing Giddey off ball worked well, team turnovers and team defense were great. Billy used the bench. Hope it continues.
If we could trade for an all star who would yall trade for ?
Hopefully Jalen Smith is finding his niche and can stay productive
Smh. No winning outro!?!?
Matas will learn from this game. I am not the slightest bit worried about him.
BILLY seems to manage the team better when his best player is out. I suspect the bulls will play worse , atleast for a while, when Coby comes back.
As Billy said, "Matas hasn't arrived yet" and thank god he is challenging and hard on Matas
Love these two guys. Funny and balanced
Forza Bulls from Italy
Patrick put the clamps on Paulo. I keep telling people he is a weapon we can use against these scoring power forwards.
We all wished he was a scorer like them. But he turned out to be a player who can keep those guys in check and shoot a high percentage from 3. There are only about 4 players in the nba that can clamp up those scoring power forwards and actually hit 3s at a high percentage.
First my Warriors and now my Bull 🐂 s are 2-0 YES 🙌
Gotta get rid of okoro on that starting line up doing pure cardio
Matas had a really bad day, but I am sure he has the grit and right mindset to comeback strong from it.
Okoro needs to be benched
The Bulls looking good to start the year. Was hoping for 45 wins and 6th seed, F the playin!
I don’t think you’d expect more from PWill if you put him in the starting lineup, but I think you’d get less. He just seems comfortable being the 7th or 8th guy in the rotation. Let him “dominate” off the bench…or see if he can at least be consistent.
We might surprise people this season. We beat 2 of the top Eastern Conference teams in a row. We were expected to lose those games.
Pat is Right, if Patrick Williams wants back into the starting lineup. It can’t be something he gets now or any time soon.
The man was gifted the starting position for 5 years straight and lost it to someone else every year.
For atleast one whole season (preferably more). He needs to work his tail off to get it back. An he also needs to see what it’s like for others to be given that position over him.
Matas wants to be coached hard. He’ll do better.
You get more ball control with Tre in the starting lineup. Giddey, Tre, and Ayo make this team go!
Can we bench Issac okoro and start p will
