So many people are afraid of saying it.
I think thibs is a psycho coach. His minute management is horrendous. Butler will soon crumble under that workload.

His style doesn’t fit in today’s league. Personality wise he just seems like an awkward dictator when it’s a players league. His defensive schemes are outdated as fukk. With so much shooting and spacing the Ice and loading the strong side with zone just doesn’t work. Kat was a decent defender his first year under Mitchell/Garnett. Now he looks lost and confused out there. Constantly out of position and entering/exiting out of stance. Also still playing two bigs(the TJ stretch four experiment is not working) Bench is awful. They’ve been scrapping by because they have solid offensive weapons and Teague has been better then expected. But the wheels will fall off soon

I'm really happy for Oladipo and Dunn. Oladipo has become an all around offensive player. The pace the Pacers play at helps but he's also getting the ball with the trust he'll make the right play.

Dunn looked so lost last year and now I think that's mostly Thibs shytty rotations and no trust to let certain players play through things. He's not shooting well but still will fight his way to the rim, make good passes and play great one on one defense. I hope Lavine comes back healthy and those two make the Bulls relevant in the east again.

The wolves had to make the trade but the Bulls definitely won the deal getting 3 NBA starters out of the deal

yup rubio was so established that any mistake dunn made he pulled him. Didn't help that the wolves won like 30 games either

i wanted him more then melo after he was traded to the thunder i know for a fact i did not want melo
yeah, the rockets lookin like they dodged that bullet with melo :patrice:

i shyt on anderson from time to time when he doesn't play well, but he's still a way better 3 point shooter than melo, and knows his role and doesn't chuck you out the game. :patrice:

Harden will personally assassinate every media member and player that didn't vote for him if he loses the MVP race if he keeps this up.

Yup and the worst part if he is President and coach.
Has any team had success with this set up. It causes a lack of accountability.

No but Lonzo is :troll:

Lonzo is also playing good defense. He might be the only young rookie I've seen that played good defense and gets almost no credit for it. When they played against the Sixers he was legit fukking them up defensively and just hustling everywhere. Wasn't just the blocks/steals, he was just moving on that end and that's what you like to see out of young players as you can teach them offense, but teaching them to hustle defensively and trying to actual lockup their guy is much harder.
