Brown gets called out by Ime few games ago but Tatum gets a pass 

[slamtheking]

So what’s Ime gonna say now? He’s been outcoached embarrassingly this every game.

fixed it for you

Ime gives himself a pass.

[celts55]

I think it's time to start trying some new guys for rotation minutes...

How about just some new guys. These ones suck

[ozgod]

In imes words they got punked in the 4th quarter

[esel1000]

Ok this is the first time I’ve said this in a long time, including last year but I think I hate this team…

Yeah, I'm about there.

I get the sense that the culture is poisoned after years of lackluster leadership and letting our stars play/do whatever they want. Not sure how to fix it, or whether it can even be fixed.

Ime has done a poor job thus far, but he seems like he was put in a rough spot with how much leeway and lack of leadership and culture they've allowed to fester in these guys the last several years. They just don't play the right way.

I agree that a lot of this is on Brad. Ime hasn't been good but a lot of this crunch time bull and Brown icing is on Brad just letting these guys do anything they want.

[Ogaju]

I mean we're just getting killed with JRich on the floor this quarter but Ime doesn't want to sub him out.  Try something else.

That line up with JRich and Gwill started the Bulls’ comeback.

No. The bulls superior coaching and talent started the comeback.

[liam]

I hope the Magic don't beat us too badly.

[PAOBoston]

Ime gonna be on the hot seat soon.

Ime stinks!

20 games.

We can only hope

Yeah, let's see how the locker room thing goes.  Stuff like that can lead to some issues. Then you have the guys who aren't getting minutes but think they deserve them - and who can really argue because the team needs help.  Yet the coach sticks with his guys playing them too many minutes.

This could spiral downhill relatively quickly.

[cltc5]

Can’t blame ime.  Same bums out there as last year.  They suck

[Rosco917]

This hurt...

This team gets lost down the stretch of any close game. Bulls comeback or not!

[jpotter33]

Brown took like, what, five or six shots in the second half? Ridiculous. I don't understand you continuously freeze out your hot guy like that. Brad was even worse at it.

I don't think you're wrong. I'm just curious what exactly "culture" means here and what needs to change? Why would we sign all these guys to extensions if they truly were lazy or malcontents?

[radiohead]

started the fourth up by 14 and we were just down by 12.
26 point swing in the quarter....

what the heck even happened?

Stopped playing. Coach Brough no energy in off the bench. We have scores on the bench. 9 points in the 4th??? WHAT!!!

He could have played Jabari to start the 4th. Hasn’t he earned his playing time yet? He’s perfect to pair with JT or JB when one of them sits. He’s a wide body who could get boards too.
