scs787 73 Posted January 2 Nets lose again, Bulls are now in first all by their selves. 11 straight wins in games where DDR plays. That's pretty incredible. I love this team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chw42 4,132 Posted January 2 I talked some shit about how bad Coby White was to start the year (and he was really really bad), but with all the COVID injuries he's really stepped up with more reps and playing time. That's 4 straight very good games for him now and 5 good ones in the last 6. When Caruso and Lonzo return, it's going to be hard for him to get consistent minutes. Hopefully this turns his season around, but I honestly don't see Coby playing well unless he can get consistent minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's small but White-Lavine-Ball-DDR-Vuc could be fun. I think the longer White plays well the better compensation you can get for him. White only has a year left on his contract so I'm not sure if he really makes since for a rebuilding team in Houston (for a disgruntled Wood) but it could always be a 3 team trade.

I prefer the transition buckets players like Green/Caruso provide the ones, and bulls still struggle with bench scoring. We don’t have problems making a good starting lineup, but would be nice to rest DDR and Vuc more in second half because Coby improves playmaking with the 2s.

Tnetennba 3,282 Posted January 2 Is winning 60 games out of the realm of possibility? Perhaps. But there is definitely something special about this squad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think they'll win around 55 games barring any major injuries. They'll probably be buyers at the deadline too. They're absolutely getting smoked in the paint by mediocre players without AC and Lonzo guarding the perimeter. Edited January 2 by chw42 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I donot think they need to make a big trade - just find another big and role with this unit. 55 would be stellar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This team needs a legit starting PF IMO, but I don’t know how they acquire one without depleting it’s depth in a detrimental way. Interior D and rebounding are two big issues that could limit this team when it matters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
