I'd rather see Coby do well and the Bulls win, but you seem happy. Weird

Nah I watch a good 10 minutes of the game. It was for sure vintage night with The Flaw(6/1/0) and Trade Young going 3-12 from 3. Good times :lol:

For once I agree with CB. I’d also like it if PAW became the stud that you keep saying he will be. I’m certainly not rooting against anyone that would make the team better.

Zippy you bashed Patrick Williams even as he plays well and and so does Caller Bob. And CB was on board with bashing the Bulls even when the team was doing well a couple of years ago WYC?

Fact is Coby White isn't a good basketball player and never has been. If you want the Bulls to "do well" then you probably should move on from thinking he is a good basketball player and advocate for them to trade him at some point.

That’s BS. Pointing out that a guy is playing lousy is not the same as actively rooting against him (like you clearly do with CW). The Bulls have been my number 1 team since the Van Lier days and they have sucked more than they have been good in that span. My posts regarding PAW in the past 2 seasons have noted that his progression was the key to any chance of real success for the team. The only thing that has changed is my belief that he will become “that guy”.

I'm not "rooting against Coby" that's inane. I pointed out that he really isn't a good basketball player. You believe that he is. And if you believe that I'm rooting against him then the same has to be said for you and Patrick Williams. You called the kid a bust several days ago even when the stats clearly suggests otherwise.

You along with MANY others believe Coby's great even though all he has done to date is show that he is an inefficient chucker who plays shitty defense.

Why can't you make an argument for PAW without taking shots at Coby? Your comment is disingenuous anyway since not 1 person has claimed that CW is "great".

Actually They have. And that's why it's tough for me to take their critiques of The Paw seriously.

The Bulls Winning % in Games Coby White has started is less than 30% for his career. He obviously has not done much "going" with this being the case. And the straw that stirs the drink for squad has obviously been Vuc. Whom you hate

what's your Bulls plan moving forward ?

1. Trade Lavine
2. Trade Derozan
3. Fire Billy D
4. Either ship Coby out or relegate him to 6th man status. He isn't a starting caliber guard on a good team.
5. Move the Paw to the 3. Which is his natural position.

Why are the Bulls favored tonight? Are the Sixers taking the night off?

Gave the Sixers 48 minutes of hell on the defensive end. Pretty proud of the boys tonight. Although Drummond has some soul searching to do. Philly outrebounded him 36-23.

As much as MANY like to credit the "emergence" of Coby White for the Bulls turnaround, this really hasn't been the reason. The main reason for the Bulls turnaround since Lavine got injured has been their vastly improved defense. Inserting a great defender (Caruso) and increased minutes for My Guy The Paw have had a helluva lot to do with the increased record. Bulls were ranked 22nd in defense once Lavine went down and have been top 5 since.
Quote:
The Bulls were 22nd in defensive rating (116) and 29th in defensive rebounding (30 per game) after being humiliated by the Celtics on Nov. 28.

That was rock bottom — and maybe the wake-up call this group needed.

Since that Boston massacre, the Bulls are fifth in defensive rating (113.2) and 10th in defensive rebounding (33.4 per game).


“I do think our defense has taken a jump over these last 12-13 games,” Donovan said. “That’s been pretty significant. We’ve been able to offset some of the [inconsistent shooting] because of that.”

What no one in the organization will say was another reason the defense improved.

That loss to the Celtics was the last game Zach LaVine played in before he was shut down to rehab an injured right foot and make sure he had no setbacks with it. The 15 games since LaVine went into street clothes is when the defense turned around. The Bulls have a 10-5 record in those games.

And still shot better than 50% from both 2 and 3 while playing stellar defense. Something Coby White will never do but hey whatabout those damn rebounds?

The last 5 games he shot 39% from 3, so WYC? And since when don’t rebounds matter, especially for a forward who doesn’t score?

Defense matters more than rebounds. And Patrick Williams is much better at it than Coby White, who sucks at it.

And in the past 5 games the ever "improving" Coby White is 32 for 90 from the Field. With typically shitty defense.
