So as "punishment", Butler and Wade won't START on Friday and will come off the bench.
Things looking really good down in Chicago.
I was watching the Bulls game during our breaks. Score now is 99-87 for Miami. And that is Miami without Whiteside.
Some quick remarks. Bulls D was a mess. Dragic could go anywhere he wanted.
Their offence was bad too.My impression from this game is that their players do not know their roles, and they often 'freeze' at the offence.
Rondo is not helping much. He is slow, rarely drives to the paint, and is dribbling waiting for someone to cut and try a spectacular pass. Still has a midrange shot, but his game is too predictable for the defence.
Wade was good, but he plays on his own. He still posts a lot, which is impressive for someone his age.
Overall they looked unmotivated, and I would not be surprised if they have locker room issues too. Hornets and Bucks (the teams right below the Bulls in the standings) play with more energy and are by comparison a pleasure to watch.
I wonder how many of these problems come from their bench: no role distribution, messed up defensive rotation, poor psychology. I never thought much of Hoiberg tbh. What do other people think of him?
