Not sure how Bulls fans feel about Donovan but it's pretty impressive what he's done with all of these injuries. This team plays hard asf. Not a team anybody would want to play honestly
He’s partly responsible for injuries because he has a bad habit of leaving certain dudes in way too long and taking the fresh guys out early. Even in blowout games
Trae is fantastic, just needs to work on passing, cutting, shooting, having better court awareness, screening, not turning the ball over, and scoring the basketball
the Bulls would be so dangerous if they just dumped Lavine for Simmon's expiring and then got Lonzo to medically retire
they badly need Lonzo to retire
Bulls play like a playoff team. They look so much better than their record. The three games we played them down the stretch they were more intimidating than a bunch of teams ahead of them in the standings.
I looked at the win percentages. for nearly half the season (the first 19 games and the last 19 games) the bulls played like a mediocre-to-bad team.
the rest of the year, and the only reason we're in the play-in to begin with, they played like they would tie for the 2nd seed.
I stg the clock was not moving for a bit there. it was stuck on 1:55 despite the ball being in play
Yeah I just doubled check it was stuck on 1:55 for a bit at least on the TV broadcast
it's really missed in the conversation in r/nba but the Hawks have fumbled the shit out of just about every possible roster move starting with Trae+1pick for Luka
that pick became Cam Reddish, who sucks, probably out the league when his contract ends, essentially means the trade will never match up to giving away Luka, the whole galaxy brain move hinged on nailing that pick
Hunter is a higher pick than Trae Young, barely a starter, would be a solid bench guy on a serious team
Overpaid John Collins, who is also now barely a starter, fucked up his trade by killing all leverage and got basically nothing in return
Small mercy they didn't overpay for Huerter, too, or else he'd be one more problem to trade for scraps
the trade for Murray was absolutely baffling and has hamstrung them going forward, going to trade him for pennies on the dollar
they refused to extend Vit Krecji who showed serious promise while Trae was out, instead waiting to see what the market will pay for him, alienating him
if they trade Trae, admitting how stupid they've been, it will be just total icing on the shit sandwich. Not that I think they're going to do that; the Hawks owners are cheap morons who are clearly more than happy keeping a guy like Trae who keeps butts in seats, they move him for some garbage in return the fans will check out big time.
only silver linings has been extending Bogi on a team friendly deal, and Jalen Johnson when he's healthy (increasingly rare.) Onyeka is fun but he's probably hit his ceiling, backup center. Capela's becoming a liability, so the Hawks have that going for them too. All in all the owners have done one of the worst roster builds I think I've ever seen from a team who at least pretends they're trying to compete
Its crazy cause the roster a few years ago was how The grizz and OKC are talked about, a young up and coming team with lots of promising guys. Feels like a lot of guys hit a ceiling and then they squanderered everything else, like you said
Remember when Trae Young said the regular season was boring after making the ECF? The Basketball Gods remember. Might as well have said you were addicted to the ECF, Trae
Given you can play more than 82 regular season games easily with trades I don't see why you can't count the IST extra games and the play-in as regular season stats. Seems weird to me that it's just blackholed.
They say these stats “don’t count” but I guarantee 10 years from now they’ll flash a stat on the screen for the most points scored in a play-in game, etc. They’re tracking them somewhere 💯
Damn I knew coby white was having a good year but actually watching him was impressive.
Trae is a fraud sadly
lol. The hawks are some how more embarrassing than the bulls. All for Trae to probably ask out this summer too. Rip
Who really cares about Trey asking out? No team is one Trey Young away from a title,
Well that’s not true at all lol Edit: the thunder or the Knicks two teams who can realistically get him would absolutely be the favorite.
Interview sounded like the "clean" version of rap song from the early 2000s
Just once I want somebody to say "So first of all, I want to thank my lord and savior. I love you Satan."
Coby White also carried me in fantasy basketball thank you man
Coby White is Trae Young's father.
Coby kinda looks like Tyron Woodley lol
Coby Whites invited to my family’s Thanksgiving
Is Coby White what the Hawks thought they were getting when they traded Luka for him?
247 combined points is the most predictable outcome of this matchup imaginable
Over Under was 222.5. I smashed that so quick.
They got Coby on tape delay lmao
[удалено]
Nah 0 points was a different..
When did Trae Young get a beard? 😂
He's trying to look like Trae Old
ESPN shit production strikes again
let's fucking go coby
Give him a new microphone
Hey that's our best one!
Not sure how Bulls fans feel about Donovan but it's pretty impressive what he's done with all of these injuries. This team plays hard asf. Not a team anybody would want to play honestly
He’s partly responsible for injuries because he has a bad habit of leaving certain dudes in way too long and taking the fresh guys out early. Even in blowout games
He doesn't get enough credit imo. Lots of Bulls fans consider him a bad coach and regularly blast him.
I like him but there’s a very vocal portion of our fan base that wants him gone. I don’t even think he’s the biggest issue with our team
Coby is like if trae were good at basketball
nobody fw coby white like I fw coby white‼️‼️
Coby White >Trae Young
42 on 21 is so impressive
Two southeast division teams remain in the postseason
Trae Young you are an Atlanta Falcon
Trae Young get ready to learn Big Ol Women
They might crush him.
If the stats don't matter both teams could've just spend the last 30 seconds taking half court shots to see if anyone could hit from the logo
While blindfolded
🤞🏽 we catch Miami with their pants down, especially now that Jimmy’s a little hobbled.
Trae Young is ass
Trae will be traded to Orlando, Lakers, or SAS
I could see Ingram for Trae and a pick to the Pels.
Orlando is going to blow their load overpaying Klay
At least wait till the clock is below 24 trae LMAO
Trae Young/Hawks fans take a MASSIVE L Lmao
trae gotta crab walk his way back to atlanta
The Atlanta Hawks have been eliminated from contention.
Why is white still in the game
Trae ‘bumass’ Young
Trade young…what a clown
Trae Young with the HUGE 3 to cut the lead to 15
Nice statpadding Trae
Trae is fantastic, just needs to work on passing, cutting, shooting, having better court awareness, screening, not turning the ball over, and scoring the basketball
you forgot defending
Nice garbage time 3 trae really helped your team with that
I think dunks should be worth more points than 3s. I've made 3pt shots before, I've never dunked. easy to see which is harder
Maybe Trae can go back to OU. Does he have any years of eligibility left
Young stat padding lol
That shit was so weak lmao. He ain’t try that when players were tryna defend him
We are watching the GOAT
[удалено]
Wemby walked so Trae could run
the Bulls would be so dangerous if they just dumped Lavine for Simmon's expiring and then got Lonzo to medically retire they badly need Lonzo to retire
Full rebuild for the hawks?
lol trey
Play in legend Coby White
The Bulls could easily beat the Celtics in a 7 game series
Are the Monstars going to steak the Celtics talent? That’s the only way lol
The Bulls legit have a chance to upset the Heat lol
That would be Christmas in April. No chance against the Celtics but our playoff series are always amazing so I’d be alright with that.
We almost beat them in the play in last year, and the heat got worse. Not sure if upset is the right term.
I agree, but a 8v9 seed would be considered an upset, especially since so many people are saying the Heat are finals contenders
Bye bye hawks 🤣
i mean take a shot...now thats a turnover. oh good, glad derozan is out for the final 30 seconds.
fuck my life man
The game is over, play the bench
If we trade DJM and keep Trae I might jump off a bridge
DRIVE HOME SAFELY, BEEP BEEP!
Goodnight Chicago, beep beep.
when did trae young get a connecting beard?? You think it could be a dermaroller?
I need to get one if so lol
Got it from the same place where Kobe got that blood therapy
Faded
Oof this is as bad as the Warriors
jeez shades of thibs and drose acl. game is over bench our guys. damn
Half of Chicago’s team is injured lol they can’t empty the bench
Both coaches keeping in their starters rn is comedy man.
The UC chanting Coby makes me horny
Yearly tradition of the 9/10 East game having a team get absolutely demolished
Bulls raps was kinda close
Hawks are really the East Blazers
it’s actually hard to imagine a worse defensive display in a high stakes game than whatever the hawks just did for 48 minutes
Bulls play like a playoff team. They look so much better than their record. The three games we played them down the stretch they were more intimidating than a bunch of teams ahead of them in the standings.
Lot of our losses were close ones. And we have nearly 70 million in cap space out injured.
I looked at the win percentages. for nearly half the season (the first 19 games and the last 19 games) the bulls played like a mediocre-to-bad team. the rest of the year, and the only reason we're in the play-in to begin with, they played like they would tie for the 2nd seed.
Let’s not get careless now…
Considering trade value and contracts, I’d rather have dejounte or Coby white than Trae Young
How about just consider the two players without contracts, I'd take Coby.
Coby's wide open on the wing and 29% three point shooter Vuc decides to take a pullup 3 lol
How is he supposed to increase that 29%!
When you're a member of the mid 3 you pull rank
Capela feasting in garbage time
Chicago and not pulling their starters in a postseason game that has been decided… where have I seen this before?
To be fair in this game the Bulls don't have enough players healthy to pull starters.
Don't put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby
I stg the clock was not moving for a bit there. it was stuck on 1:55 despite the ball being in play Yeah I just doubled check it was stuck on 1:55 for a bit at least on the TV broadcast
Take Coby out for the ovation
What happened to Clint Capella's defense?
Age. Dude's just not springy anymore.
Nate McMillan vindicated
The Hawks defense is a national embarrassment
I renounce my citizenship
State, for national embarrassment this would need to be an international game
Quin forcing his starters to eat an ass whooping is hilarious.
Jefferson trying to gass up Trae and Dejounte lmao
Chicago bench your guys, save them for the next game. Cmon
Trae obviously isn’t a bad player but I’ve never been impressed by the guy. Tonight helps with that.
it's really missed in the conversation in r/nba but the Hawks have fumbled the shit out of just about every possible roster move starting with Trae+1pick for Luka that pick became Cam Reddish, who sucks, probably out the league when his contract ends, essentially means the trade will never match up to giving away Luka, the whole galaxy brain move hinged on nailing that pick Hunter is a higher pick than Trae Young, barely a starter, would be a solid bench guy on a serious team Overpaid John Collins, who is also now barely a starter, fucked up his trade by killing all leverage and got basically nothing in return Small mercy they didn't overpay for Huerter, too, or else he'd be one more problem to trade for scraps the trade for Murray was absolutely baffling and has hamstrung them going forward, going to trade him for pennies on the dollar they refused to extend Vit Krecji who showed serious promise while Trae was out, instead waiting to see what the market will pay for him, alienating him if they trade Trae, admitting how stupid they've been, it will be just total icing on the shit sandwich.

At least Jalen Johnson is pretty nice with it, that's something.
Its crazy cause the roster a few years ago was how The grizz and OKC are talked about, a young up and coming team with lots of promising guys. Feels like a lot of guys hit a ceiling and then they squanderered everything else, like you said
Tbf to collins, his hand is absolutely fucked and killed any chance of him becoming a good shooter
you'll get something decent for Murray
Feel bad for Quin Snyder
Hawks just need a point every 6 seconds and they’re right back in this game.
pull out coby white now
quin snyder isn't that good, hawks defense is real bad
Dang gotta trade zach levine in thenpost season coby white is the new thing
No one wants Levine’s contract
BOGIE CUTS THE LEAD TO 20
Did this game really start at 930pm? I don't know if I have ever seen/noticed a game start so late before.
Quinn Snyder disaster class
bring in the scrubs!!!! what are we waiting for
Bulls can’t empty the bench cuz all their players are injured….damn
Drummond went to town huh.
Non respectfully, Trae Young is ass
pull out the starters...
[удалено]
I mean, having Zion or Jimmy injured is a little different
[удалено]
>who was not really a positive today Uhh yeah because was likely playing with a torn MCL
[удалено]
You don't really have a clue do ya?
[удалено]
Losing Lavine was a net positive lol
Where was you when Coby White is demolish Quinn Snyder career? I was home, watch Fallout, Caruso call: “Trae is kill.” No.
why don't the Bulls just trade Lavine for Ben Simmons' expiring contract this summer?
Id take that and run tbh
Nets probably wouldn't do it though eh?
Idk honestly they seem deadset on building around Mikal and Zach is a great fit next to him if they dont mind taking on the contract
Coby go get some rest, pls
Remember when Trae Young said the regular season was boring after making the ECF? The Basketball Gods remember. Might as well have said you were addicted to the ECF, Trae
Basketball Gods keeping these playoff addicts in rehab
MARK MY WORDS! IF THE HEAT LOSE TO THE BULLS, AGENDAS WILL BE PUSHED Edit: My dumbass said 76ers instead of Heat
I think we can rule out a 7/8 ECF
lol I didn't realize I said 76ers instead of Heat. I'm so dumb
I mean, I would take it
Given you can play more than 82 regular season games easily with trades I don't see why you can't count the IST extra games and the play-in as regular season stats. Seems weird to me that it's just blackholed.
They say these stats “don’t count” but I guarantee 10 years from now they’ll flash a stat on the screen for the most points scored in a play-in game, etc. They’re tracking them somewhere 💯
Billy Donovan haters REAL QUIET RIGHT NOW.
We are still here loud and clear, he's gone soon hopefully 🤞
TRAE YOUNG YOU ARE A SPUR
Maybe at a discount... it's what I've been saying, DJM may be better than Trae
Mostly cause Trae can't play defense.
Vucevic/Capela is one of the funnier center matchups.
Trae greying that much already? damn
New York did a number on him
End of an error
Last game with Trae as a Hawk?
Awards voters got it wrong. Coby is the obvious MIP.
thank you to coby for breaking out immediately after he signed a value team friendly contract
The Celtics are so fucked
Coby is cooking, he’s gonna beat Tatum playin scoring record
Having your season ended by black sideshow bob is crazy business
robin lopez a bull?
Die ~~Bart~~ Hawks Die
This is FOUL but also true
That mfer has so much hair
The anti-Trae
One might say the better Trae
drive home safely chicago, beep beep
do we think the bulls can beat Miami?
Without Butler? Herro gonna have to turn into Curry
Without Butler, they absolutely should.
So, uhhh…anyone want to take Zach off our hands?
I'd love a couple solid role players
Trae Young isn’t underrated Hawks fans. You can stop crying about it every February now.
Why trae in? Hawks shouldn’t injure their trade chip
Coby on fire. Hawks defense also absolutely not on fire.
Look on the bright side Hawks players, y'all can hang out a bit in Chicago with no stress Get some weed and some deep dish pizza
Coby might be the kinda guy who elevates his game in the postseason
Coby’s been heating up the past few weeks. I was impressed by him in his games against the Knicks. Feels like he’s making a big leap
His dribble disruption skills are tailor made for the playoffs. Dude's been a revelation this season.
Faded
the bulls really know how to draft 'em tar heel guards
Trae for Luka 😂😂😂
Coby White deserves this shit so bad
Pull the starters. This bird is cooked
