Yes. I’m watching the Bulls. Yes. This team is better. But this team is also playin in the east, where there is a log jam from 6th to 14th place. They could lose 2 games and be in 14th place. This team has no damn business being in an OT game with the Wolves after having a solid lead.
I’m just taking everything with a grain of salt.
My post was mainly about Lavine and what he doesn’t do, which has cost us games and almost lost the game last night. Him having Offense has never been a problem. His defense hasn’t improved, and he is still a TO machine. He also breaks the offense with that hero ball crap and doesn’t facilitate. It is Thaddeus who makes all the important plays to keep the Bulls in games. He is the true MVP of this team. ( are you watching games?)
The backcourt registered 14 TOs alone! And that isn’t the first time. 14 TOs against the worst team in BB. They weren’t playing the Suns or the Clippers. That is a problem and is inexcusable. You don’t gloss that over.
The offense has improved but the defense has gotten worse.
I like the direction that we are going in, but that’s not going to stop me from critiquing this team.
And I don’t see Lavine as a long term piece if he continues to ignore playing defense and getting others involved.
And I’m not the only one saying this. Kendall Gill and Will Perdue often talk about Lavine needing to add other qualities to his game.
There is a reason why Lavine’s name is in trade rumors.
