We need to beware some random role player like Connaughton or Carter getting hot from 3

That shyt always happens to us.
Giannis is gonna score his 30 regardless..

We cant let Brook Lopez and/or Jrue get a roll on
Portis is a wildcard...i could see dude hitting3-5 threes outta the blue
Lopez started the game 3/3 from three, I'm like, man can you fukking miss a shot already.

Also, seems like Wes Matthews always makes timely 3s against the Bulls too.

Vuce is getting clean looks off Lopez - if he can just convert on his open looks it will open up everything

Im still stuck on Zach needing to step up. I know hes restricted some, but he needs to make a splash this series

end of the day, with Middleton out, if our role players can outplay Milwaukees, we can be successful

I don't know about taking the "no excuses" angle here. There are still excuses. For starters this is our first run in the playoffs whereas the Bucks have been in the playoffs for years straight and just made a championship run. This is some of our guys first time ever in the offs. Another excuse is the best player in this series is still on the Bucks. Derozan will have to turn in at least 2 more of those performances and lavine needs to give us 1 gem to win this series. But because we are so new to this we can go up 3-1 and still lose this series on the inexperience.

For myself I'm good whatever happens. But I just wouldn't rush to toss us in the 2nd rd just yet. Another factor here is we did well as underdogs in the regular season and dropped the ball as favorites once we got to 1st in the East. Will we start to fall apart again as more people declare we could take this series? We might be a better underdog team and now the Bucks can be motivated due to Middleton being out.

What is the consensus on Coby moving forward?

I cannot call it with him. He had a pretty good stretch earlier in the season, and has since sputtered. I think his wings have been clipped some throughout the season adjusting to the role changes.

Does he ever completely figure it out? And if he does, will he be in a Bulls uniform?

Too inconsistent, im ready to move on

Not enough upside for me to give him a new contract

How much $ do you think he could command....i could see 15-16 per from a few teams

I dont think he has a future on this team. Im not saying this because I think hes trash, I dont think his next contract wiill fit into our long term salary cap structure

I think there is a high chance we move him this summer before hes due a contract

I'm torn. The inconsistency is troubling and I do see a team offering him that much.

Its a situation where I can see him going to a new team and flourishing or being the same up and down guy he's been this season.

Should be interesting to see what his market is.

I dont see him anything more than a Jordan Clarkson type....above average bench scorer

in regards to Coby...a consistent scorer off the bench would be nice but if we have our 3 top guys playing well together...their mins can be stunted to always have that threat on the floor

so if we can get other players to plug holes on the team especially on the bench...that'd be great

Outside of some missed looks around the rim I don't have an issue with the way Lavine is playing so far. It's okay if he's not scoring 30 every night. We just need him to get that playoff experience and contribute to winning basketball while doing it.

Aa far as Coby goes, I'm indifferent to him. His role on the team is important, but at the same time his skill set is replaceable.
