Did they really lose to the kings during this crucial stretch? Missed the 2nd half but the bulls came out flat as hell. Disappointing
Yes, they did.

I don't think they're getting 50 wins.

What happened to angry and present Vuc that showed up for a few games? He’s reverted back to soft day dreamer vuc

Their record doesn't really show it. 4-9.. the Bulls being their only quality win.
I mean, it’ll take time for them to learn to play together and I’m not saying they are already a force to be reckoned with or anything…but when you also factor in the bulls are below .500 on the road this season and the kings are vastly better at home than on the road, and you could of seen this one coming IMO

That kings lineup is better post trade than people realize
Kings also always do this thing where they start off like crap then have a run at the end of the season to make it look like they'll be in some form of playoff picture.

They are not as bad as their record I think (some of it is just being out West), but that said the Bulls still should have beaten them

While I agree they should, lately they haven’t been beating much of anyone. Caruso helps, but we can calm down about him being some savior I think as well lol

I’m still hopeful that when Lonzo and PWill come back, they can get back to playing like they were the first 30 or so games of the season. But with Lavine not healthy, I don’t see them doing much anymore

Caruso isn't the savior, though their defense is still better because of him. There's only so much he can do, and if the team isn't hitting any shots, they're not going to win many games.

Naturally the healthier the team is the better they will be, eventually, but it'll take time for Ball and PWill to really bring their full value to the team. By that point, we may have already lost in the 1st round.

I'll hold onto the "not healthy" excuse for now but i hope we didn't peak too soon. The fire and drive this team showed early in the season has been non existent, and really the injuries shouldn't be a excuse as the team should be rallying even harder (even if still losing).

Yep. The effort and drive is gone and LaVine’s knee is a major problem. Also Vuc is a major disappointment

Zach sulking about the no call instead of paying attention to the live ball that gets thrown off his leg. Not good.
