It's very clear the team needs more time to gel. New additions are slowly learning our system. Goes to show how high CP3, Tuck and Luc's basketball IQ's were last year. This little winning streak is huge for our confidence. Capela looking like his old self. Harden is rusty but still has swag. Good things ahead.
I don’t want to be *that* guy. But it’s really hard to watch a game like tonight and not feel like these outcomes are predetermined.
Gordo has been so awful to start the season, I"m okay with Gary Clark 'The Spark' taking his minutes. He played pretty solid
That's a good point! I'd personally like Clark to take more of MCWs and Ennis' minutes and let Gordon play his way out of his funk, but I've definitely been impressed with the rook.
Bulls lacked leadership to close the game. They lost the game more than we won it. I know it looks the same but y’all know what is being said. AND a win is a win. Nice to see the youngers get some burn, too. They were both active which is a welcome sight. Capela looks to be more into the game —> fighting for everything in the paint
Look I think Melo is doing really good rn but y'all need to stop calling for more post ups it's not efficient offense most of the time.
The way we are playing right now is extremely worrisome. We could fall in a deep enough hole that it’ll be a struggle to get into the playoffs. Next 4 games is Indy twice Spurs and in OKC. We’re definitely not playing like a team that would win 3 out of those 4 so let’s hope we atleast split them. Losing all would put us at 3-9. We do always tend to have injuries and it would be hard to put together a long win streak later in the season if CP3 Harden and Clint aren’t all healthy. That’s if things stay the same though. A string of games where our main guys are healthy and EG pulling his head out of his ass would come a long way.
What do you mean not "efficient"? He posts up, he scores more often than not. He shoots 3s, he misses more often than not. Argument could be made that he is more efficient on the block than anywhere. Look at his line tonight. 1-7 from three. Much greater elsewhere.
When you're the worst team in the league, the best prescription is to play a bunch of Eastern Conference teams Ugly game but wins are good.
