I watched a Bulls game yesterday. I think I know why they are so bad this year.
They are playing the wrong game.
When the Bulls drive to the paint, they are pretty good. When they sit back and try to hit jump shots and 3 pointers, they are pretty bad.
So, why don't they build their team around driving to the paint? They have 3 players who score pretty much anytime they are under the basket. But, these players almost never get inside the paint because they run all these stupid jumpshot plays.
From what I saw, this could be a good team, but they don't play the right game.
Idiot coach?
Not enough bench depth to play full court press all game?
Watching one game doesn't prove anything?
