Vuc is a loser.

Defeatist mentality when his shot doesn’t fall.

Did we have a challenge left? If so, BD blew that one badly.

Kessler was there to be drafted in 2022 and now is a top 5 shot blocker.Instead AK wasted the pick on Terry


I bet they draft a center in the upcoming draft, but they should go with the best player available regardless of position.[/quote
I don't trust AK for drafting good players.

That’s what I’ve been saying all season and especially during the Cavs game the past 3 seasons bulls have been getting screwed by the refs in Cavs games

Yes we did. I was very surprised we didn't challenge. That was a clear blown call on the TV replay at least.

Stacey King coined a phrase I hadn't heard him say before during the game. "Everybody needs friends like you"

Thanks.

Man that is tough to entirely blame either guy, but personally I lean towards blaming Vuc. I slowed down the clip to 50%.

#1 Coby collapsed the D and drew 4 guys, inc. 2 elite 7’ shot blockers, and he got the pass out. I really don’t think he had a FG to attempt in the paint. Literally 8 hands surrounding him unless he got bailed out by the refs.

#2 In slow mo, Vuc popped to the 3P, then he saw Garland and rolled. Coby found him. He raises his hands for the pass about 0.5 seconds after Coby’s head motions he’s looking for him. Garland had enough time to roll, and Vuc’s hands are still slowly coming up. Plus he like, volleys the ball out of bounds instead of atleast tapping it for a possession.

Now Coby could’ve made the bounce pass a hair earlier on the give and go or delivered the 3P pass on the pick n pop, before Vuc cut, but we’d be living and dying with Vuc’s 25% shooting. That might’ve been the right play to make, with Garland switching to Vuc. The alternative was just lobbing it softly, but of course Vuc isn’t the type of athlete to win the race if the defense has time to adjust to a slower pass.

But I dunno. I liked Coby getting to the paint. Honestly, Vuc set a great screen, but otherwise if I was the head coach, I’d want Demar and Coby running something together.

I'd label it like 90% Vuc, 10% Coby's fault. It was a sudden and high pass, but it hit Vuc right in the hands and it absolutely could have and should have been caught. Vuc was struggling to catch the ball all night, so it wasn't an isolated incident.
And if he had caught it? Then what?

This is funny for sure, but kind of bogus for KC to tweet. Like "I was looking over the shoulder at a couple of players watching film and the way they were watching the video implied that their teammate Vucevic **** sucks".

Funny, but totally unnecessary and kind of crossing a line for a "company man" IMO.

There's nothing in that Tweet implying what you think it's implying. It's just as much implying that Demar is guiding Coby through what he should have done rather than pass to Vuc or how he could have made the pass better as there is evidence that they're just sitting there rewatching it like "Wow bro, look how bad Vuc is."

Also, he's a journalist. If players near him are watching film on a laptop within his view then I can't see how that is crossing any kind of line by reporting it unless they specifically asked him not to. If they didn't want it being reported on they could have done that in private.
