How bulls fans feeling about hoiberg? Is he worth keeping around? If not its better to get a new coach that can grow with the youngsters they have.

I'm 50-50 on duke he's solid but not great at anything.

Bulls finished last year #6 in defense they are currently 7th in defense and 2nd in rebounds.Only the warriors have more assisted baskets they scrappy and play hard no matter who on the floor.

Jury still out basically.

I'm glad they traded jimmy tho that was the right move.Maxing duke woulda had the bulls all fucked up.

To me having the right coach is a very important part of a rebuild, especially when you building through the draft. When your rookies come in fresh, you want a coach to be there to teach them the right habits and how you want them to play. Thats why I was asking avout Hoiberg.

Its the same with the Knicks, all I wanted is for KP and the young guys to have the same coach for a bunch of years. Hornacek was seeming real timid first few games but after the last few wins he seems way more comfortable and takes risk so im feeling that.

1st time he's had a roster without egos and players blowing him off.I like how the bulls play, they compete they aren't getting washed by 30+ every game.

"I feel like they're better than their record shows," Cousins said about the Bulls. "They're probably top-three hardest-playing teams in the league at this point."

I think he's getting the best out the roster but they're mad young & don't have much talent.

Like I said Jury still out I'll see the next 2 years

Thunder just need to establish a pecking order offensively & move the rock they iso way too much.

Defensively they're elite and can rebound.Their bench isn't as bad a people projected either

I think billy donovan and presti were college friends or go way back cuz I still don't understand what donovan brings to the table.Hes' brooks 2.0 ,just imagine if pop or stevens were okc coach

Russ has jagged a few games too.I see why most kobe groupies love russ they're both low iq dumb asses

It's crazy but it's a good chance Tony Parker ends playing before Kawhi does, he's already doing 5 on 5 drills while Kawhi is still having set backs at this point

Spurs are always extra cautious in these situations and there are some rumors saying don't be surprised if he misses most if not all of the season which I hope isn't true

thunder fans on realgm want billy outta there

but they gotta remember

i think mo cheeks is lead assitant and if billy gets fired he probably takes over and mo is the CHIEF russ ass kisser out of all the assistants

he was literally hired to keep russ happy

so while billy has been horrible reigning in russ

mo cheeks would be worse

Sellout

You’re worst type of fan I don’t know why you’re talking, if I was Ro or infamous I wouldn’t even conversate with you about the Heat, if Ax was a part time Wizards part time Celtics fan and had an infatuation with John Wall that just wasn’t normal and suspect as hell I wouldn’t talk to him

 

[Beta]

They'll probably wait until nance is back and then trade randle with deng because his value is way up

Hes been impressive off the bench

OKC needs an established coach the three stars can respect. I dont think that guy is out there.

 

[ckfree]

thats why i need to know if niko getting punched involved anything racial

someone call you a nigger

diplomacy has ended and never coming back

VIOLENCE

if niko didnt say that word then that fight cements fred as one of the worst professional sports head coaches of all time

glad to have him on board for the next few years

but its just another reason to move on from him when shit starts to matter

because he continues to show no control over the team

vets

rookies

stars

bench guys

doesnt matter

your leadership skills stink if 2 days before the opener you let something like that happen

i think donovan top two assistants are cheeks and griffin

griffin helps coach defense and i have no idea wtf cheeks really does

ive heard him being referred to as the westbrook whisperer

yet russ has no change in demeanor after he gets pissed

Lol AX DOES have a wall infatuation

Look at the posts after they lose

 

[AZTG]

If Niko called him the n word it should be made public. Problem is that no team would trade for him and the Bulls would have to eat those 27ms. But if Niko said, Portis did nothing wrong and with the Bulls staying silents its making Portis look bad and will effect his pockets down the line.

This isn't all on Billy Donavan imo....I think The Thunder will be better than what they've shown so far but this is what I see when I watch them

Paul George looks like he's just going through the motions, like his main priority is getting through the season healthy and everything else is a distant second

Melo is Melo. I think he would have worked in Houston because we would have created more efficient shots for him and we have an actual system in place....OKC doesn't

MVP Russ at the end of the day just doesn't seem capable of running a real offense even if OKC did have one, he sucks at consistently getting other players involved and has bad shot selection. He's was enabled to play selfish ball last year and the narrative was "he doesn't have help so he has to put up these numbers in order to win"......Sabonis, Kanter, Oladipo all playing productive basketball on their new teams
