My Pops Forever RIP
On the real, I've seen about 5-6 Bulls games so far, and I'm not gonna say Boylen is blameless in this situation. I'm not gonna say LaVine doesn't work hard. I've never questioned his work ethic. He plays so fukking dumb on defense, I mean making mistakes he made when he started 6 years ago. What was he preaching all camp? About his defense and getting better and doing what he has to do to make that catch up to his offense. I've seen him flat out not know where to be. He looks like a shytty cornerback when the ball is in the air and he's 5 yards away from where he was supposed to be. You know how lost you'd look if you walked in on a choreography session and were expected to know the moves? That's how LaVine looks on defense. It's not laziness. It's stupidity and lack of IQ on that end. I may be giving Boylen too much credit on this and we'll see if anything changes, but I guess he figured "if I can yank LaVine, I can yank anyone."


The disappointment on the Bulls so far is on 2 people: the coach and on Markannen (specifically Markannen because they're tailoring the offense to something he should be loving and he's failing miserably at it.) Zach's failure on defense is on Zach. He's not a baby anymore. The Bulls clearly aren't gonna coddle him, so he's gonna have to do better cuz the coach ain't looking at him the way other teams view their main guys.

I watched that entire game last night. Zach Lavine was getting cooked on that 13-0 run. But they came out lifeless. That's more so on the coach instead of the player.

This is not a good team as I've said before. We don't play up to the competition and try to find small victories in teams we beat that we are clearly better than.

It's funny but there's not a player on this roster that is valuable to this team. It's just a collection of 2nd teir players put together to hopefully get to a 7th or 8th seed to get asses in the seats for profit come playoff time.

I want to say we should punt on the season. But for what? Another 7 pick? I want to say sell at the deadline. But for what? To have other mediocre players come and start this tiresome process all over?

I don't post much in the thread because I get tired of the garpax blame or the boylen blame or the player's blame. Someone in OUR organization needs to be held accountable but I'm honestly not sure who. Until that's figured out it will be rinse and repeat.

Luckily, I can say we got 6 championships most teams can't say that.

Sorry for the vent, but this shyt sucks
Well, there is a guy who owns the team. That's where the problems begin.

lets see if the bulls can pick up another L to the hornets tonight :ohhh:


This is exactly what I'm talking about. They may come out tonight and look like a entirely different team. And bulls nation will be like we just need another peice until we lose 4-5 straight and it will be (who's to blame) all over again.

I expect them to win tonight. It won't mean anything though. They can beat bad teams and lay down against good/kinda good teams.
