I feel we should tank I don't like to see my team lose but at this point of the season with how consistent they have been inconsistent with the energy all 4 quarters of the game tank we have a better chance of getting a good pick then going to the playoffs or play in and lose in the first round they don't want to win but if we get a top pick we can a a better season next season
Start Simonovic Williams Terry Ayo and carlik Jones. The bulls don't want to be viewed as tankers (pride I'm guessing) but they know this team can't compete no further than the regular season so I say just go for the shot at the lottery pick it won't hurt anyone
i say do a free fall and tank
They are on a 6 game losing streak tank in progress LOL
Tank.
Tank!
I'm trading Lavine this off-season for some much needed draft capital. Lavine's basketball IQ will forever be an issue with this guy, but he can help another NBA with his scoring. Caruso can go too. Good bench player but gets hurt a bit too much. Have Demar finish out his contract. I'm on the fence with Vooch and Coby.
Truth is the bulls did all the winning they could in the 90s this team will never do shit again. Sad😔
It time to comeback
WE WANT WEMBY. PLEASE GET WEMBY BULLS
Might as well try to get Wemby.
Make the playoffs
At this point, I just want the team to find leverage. Even if we don’t make the playoffs, I just want to see them win. Something has to be done on the active roster and coaching staff. We definitely need some size down low. Idk why we always get undersized 4s and 5s (P-Will and Derrick Jones Jr.).
The bulls might try to win, but with this roster construction and this head coach I don’t see us winning much.
Bulls need to just focus on the off-season. A serious retool/rebuild needs to happen. It starts with getting rid of Donovan that should be the bulls first move. Next, we need to trade Demar. As much as I love him, he’s not a player for todays NBA. We need 3 point shooting and if we run the offense through him we’re already failing at that. Lavine is a player that fits todays nba really well (slasher/shooter) but with the amount he’s getting paid I’d pull the trigger if someone is willing to overpay for him, otherwise I keep him. Vuc deserves to be resigned, Alex, lonzo, coby, DJJ, Pat, green, should all stay. Everyone else has got go imo and hopefully we can replace them with some solid shooters/ role players.
I'm not for tanking. They can do what they want because I have quit watching the team. I would much rather them play hard and gut out the rest of the season because its not just about now, its about next year. That said, they probably have lost enough that they feel like shit and would perform like shit.
T.A.N.K 🎊 🎉
Even if they lose all their remaining games, they wouldn't pass Houston, Detroit, Charlotte and San Antonio. Then you're just hoping the ping pong balls fall your way, which is very unlikely.
Granted they land a top 4 draft pick, do you honestly have confidence in the current FO evaluation of talent and making the right pick and coaching staff development of that pick?
That to me is the bigger issue.
Tank, and then trade Lavine in the off season. Lavine will never be a winning player and given this riff with Billy it seems like he might not be coachable. You need your best player to be a leader.
I agree, at this point we should tank and try to get a top 4 pick
This is going to sound outlandish, because quite frankly it’s hard to make a logical take with this front office and group of players. Bulls should ACT like they’re tanking. for example, Make Lavine the point gaurd so other teams think we’re dumb. Once the other team gets complacent, we take Zach out the game and don’t let him even watch from the bench. Put him in the locker room. The other team will be so mad that their game plan of bullying Lavine on both ends was just thrown out the window. We capitalize on their confusion, some of our players should tell them Zach’s coming back, so they don’t try to switch their game plan. Boom we win. It’s that simple. We get rid of Zach and everything will get better, I promise you guys.
Tank and give a message to the players that they need to figure their crap out
Honestly this team is so backwards that if I wanted them to start losing they'd actually start winning 🤦🏽♂️😂💯
Very much think we should tank. If we make the play in I doubt we even make it to the first round of the playoffs
Should have traded away the big pieces b4 the deadline if they wanted to tank. Gotta go for the playin spots
Before I watch this video imma say my thoughts –
I think the bulls should just focus on their young players and have them play a lot with the big guys so we can see players like Dalen Terry become a key player for this roster
Ppl have been saying blow it up at the beginning of the season because we were predicting LITERALLY this! We are COMPLETELY diff than that Celtics roster. It’s wayyy to late to switch up now. We just dug our hole a LOT deeper.
Hot Take: Action List for next days, First: Fire Billy Donovan and bring a Head Coach that can develop players and have a Coaching plan. Second: give minutes to Ayo, Terry, Simonovic, develop PG Skills in Coby, give more game action to Pat Will. 3 Pray and pray and maybe we can get at least #3 pick. Scoot Henderson is so good for us also, and even Amen Thomson.. Offseason: Trade both DeRozan and Lavine, yes both. Resign Vuc as it appears to be the only one (in the "big 3") that want to play here next season. If a good trade sign and trade opportunity that includes Lavine or DeRozan appears i'm fine too. Resign Ayo, resign Coby and build around the young core. Another thing. Please make some noise against this Ownership they are #1 guiltiest of this crap.
I doubt they will tank, they invested a lot in this roster. Plus they are still betting on Lonzo getting healthy by the start of next season.
A core of Ayo Pat and coby outside of dalen Terry that’s pretty lackluster
Definitely tank. Even if they make the playin, they would have to win 2 games to make the playoffs and then most likely get eliminated in the first round. Might as well take a gamble and try to get a top pick in the draft and build to the future.
Need to trade Lavine. He is the problem.
They didn’t make any moves to add value to the team they owe us a first round exit
its a wrap, lets see what pat can do as main ball handler, same w ayo
Trade the whole team especially Zach dudes a bum
it’s not tanking—it’s “focusing on player development”
This question makes it seem like the bulls have a choice between the two lol. They are going to lose and not make the playoffs regardless because they suck this year.
