    Our perimeter defence hurts to watch

  2. Secondary92

    This is why you don’t overreact to 3 wins against middle of the pack teams, especially when two needed game winning shots lol.

  3. ilovelayaway

    This comment hit a step back three on vooch

  4. PrisonerofWawa69

    Back into the darkness. Vuc looked like such a bum tonight

  5. rainytreeday

    Imagine giving up that many points to the fucking rockets. Players should be ashamed.

  6. CubsBearsIlliniBulls

    Vucevic is one of my least favorite Chicago athletes ever

  7. Atrain175

    Can’t afford to play to the level of competition man

  8. mikes41720

    This ain’t it. Then watch as we beat the Bucks in the next game. Super inconsistent.

  9. billy is such a horrible coach I can’t believe we extended him

  10. OhiOstas

    Allowing a young squad get confidence + lack of killer instinct = bad time

    Being a resilient squad is cool & all, but sooner or later they are gonna have to learn put boots on teams’ throats

  11. JahnDavis27

    Vucevic had 3 rebounds for the entire game. THE ENTIRE GAME.

    Honestly this team needs an athletic defensive center so fucking bad. Vucevic just doesn’t cut it defensively, especially with Lavine and DeRozan in front of him also. It just can’t work.

  12. Vucevic is by far the most frustrating player I’ve watched in a bulls uniform. He can look so good some nights and like a complete bum on others.one of the Least consistent players in bulls history

  13. Temporary-Match9937

    This would have been a loss to fire your coach after but these arrogant dick heads in the front office doubled down on their continuity bullshit and gave him a secret extension. Idk maybe they have social anxiety and value this gum chewing mf dealing with the media so they don’t. He has done nothing to receive an extension.

  14. blacPanther55

    Caruso makes a huge difference on the defense for this team.

  15. Temporary-Match9937

    The Orlando magic robbed us blind….THE ORLANDO FUCKING MAGIC!!!! Akme will forever be married to that dumb ass trade. Vuc has been such a disappointment.

  16. Tonkathedog

    At some point there’s a reason that pretty much every team has an uncharacteristically good shooting night against us. Yes they make some tough shots, but a huge reason for it is because we are a bad defensive team. Really poorly constructed defensively with 3 bad defenders in the starting lineup. We have no rim protection, bad individual defenders, and are generally a badly coached defensive team who lets up a lot of easy 3s. Pretty much all of the problems with this team were easy to see in the summer and yet AKME did nothing to address those. Might be time to blow it up
