1. I don’t even know where we go from here. What I do know is I don’t want to be playing Miami in a win or go home before the playoffs even begin again.

   There’s no star out there we can get to fix this. It’s time. I really didn’t want another rebuild but I mean what can you do? Let DeRozan go to a better team. Trade Caruso. Wait for Lonzo’s contract to expire. Draft a high upside player with our lottery pick. See if anyone will take Vucevic (nobody will, so see if he can rehab some value). Same with LaVine. I don’t even know what you do with Patrick Williams. Fire Donovan and try to find someone like we did with Thibs.

   I say AKME can get one more chance. It wasn’t a good situation they walked into, and they really did try, and the team WAS a legit contender before another knee injury killed us. They made good moves (DeMar, Caruso, ayo, Coby) and bad moves (Vucevic, Terry, no trades at the deadline), so hopefully they’ve learned. One lesson: get some forwards/wings who can FUCKING SHOOT. No more DJJ, Javonte Green, Torrey Craig, Dalen Terry bullshit. (There’s also 0 chance they get fired after just 4 seasons)

   This doesn’t have to be a long term rebuild. But you have to do it right. Don’t rush anything, and don’t draft for need only. Get some ballers.

2. ### Billy is so fucking trash. He needs to get fired please

3. Same shit, different season. Hoping for changes, but doubt there will be any. Sell the fucking team, Jerry!

4. Went out sad. A fitting end for another lost season.

   I don’t know much about the intricacies of running an NBA franchise but I do know if AKME use making the playin as an excuse to do *nothing* again and run back this sorry ass core for another season, there’s no longer a debate about them being worse than GarPax.

   I’m not holding my breath on them doing anything that’s necessary for this team. Absolutely nothing about their tenure thus far suggests they’re capable of doing the smart thing.

5. May 8th 2015: D-Rose hits the buzzer beater and Chicago goes up 2-1 in the ECSF.

   Next year will mark 10 years since the Bulls were even considered Elite.

   What a MISERABLE decade of basketball as a fan and there’s no end in sight.

   Boston please sweep the Heat.

   See you next year.

6. A fitting end to this season honestly.

7. I wonder how this front office is gonna “re-tool” this roster in the off-season.

8. Damn

9. TANK FOR FLAGG

10. I HATE YOU BULLS , sincerly Chicago

11. So Arturas, did you trade Demar at the peak of his value?

    Nope.

    Well, did you at least trade off Zach LaVine?

    Nope.

    You obviously didn’t re sign Billy Donovan to a secret contract extension after a single season .. right?

    We did.

    At least you didn’t trade away your future for an aging Nikola Vucevic .. haha .. that would be silly.

    We did.

    .. well thankfully you made it past the first round at least once since you got here right … right!?

    Nope.

    Do you plan on making ANY CHANGES AT ALL!?

    Probably not. I also have maximum job security if that makes you feel any better.

12. #SELL THE TEAM

    We’ll never be relevant unless we hit the lottery or Reinsdorf sells.

13. can’t wait for AKME to run this back next year!

14. Let’s run it back boys 🙂🔫

15. Begin the Flunk for Flagg. This team sucks

16. That starters plus/minus was a sore in the eye.

17. If this was DeMar’s last game, it will be too bad to go out on this kind of a note. One of my favorite Bulls of all time.

18. I have been a fan for 30 years. And this is the first time I genuinely feel hopeless. Fuck Billy. He’s the least creative coach on the planet. Just sticks to the same shit even if it’s not working.

19. Idk how much more I can take as a Bulls fan. This is becoming exhausting. Something isn’t right with this organization. They just can’t figure it out. We continue to be outclassed by other organizations. We are no longer relevant in this league. No one cares about the big market, no one cares about Michael Jordan, no one cares about championships from 30 years ago.

20. Well Bulls fam, it’s been another fun season shooting the shit in game threads. See you in the playoff game threads on r/NBA or next season 🫡.

    D BOOTY

21. Jerry Reinsdorf smiling right now, dude gives no fucks. Yet bulls fans just continue to go to games and keep his wallet fat

22. fuck this team. i’ve been a fan all year but losing like that is pathetic.

    sell guys for poor value idgaf. AK is a wimp.

23. You have to tear this shit down you have to

24. I hope that was Demar’s last game as a Bull. Let him go to another team to try to get a ring while we have a much needed reset. 🙏

25. who’s ready for the summer workout posts about how much work DT is putting in?

    how pat’s adding to his bag 👀👀

26. Sell the team

    Wait, wrong sub

    Sell both teams

27. 

28. You know, there’s games like Wednesday where I remember why I love basketball and the Bulls. Then we get games like today, and I remember how unserious the organization is about putting a championship caliber team together. We’ll continue to fill the stands, and Jerry will continue to rake in the money. 

    It honestly just makes me sad. Chicago is such a great city, and we deserve to have good sports teams. It’s telling when the fn Cubs are the franchise to emulate. 

    Every year I get a little less attached. We’ll see if we ever get the team we deserve.

29. I don’t wanna hear about no $70 million on the bench, this team was ass with those guys and they’re ass without.

30. Is Jaime Jacquez better than Pat Williams already? Dude lead the Heat in minutes tonight and plays with heart. He is a problem.

31. Please let Demar walk this offseason. Trade Caruso, Vuc and if possible Zach. We need to star over for real because this team is so fucking mediocre.

32. Tough end. So proud of Coby, Ayo, Caruso, and Demar this year — they balled the fuck out.

    See y’all next season! 🫡

33. I’m sorry but Coby is not the future for the bulls. He has some amazing games and then everyone on here acts like he’s the 2nd coming, but then the very next game he disappears. He has been streaky like this for years. The bulls lack consistency across the board, almost nobody is consistent in their role and abilities. The closest we have to consistent talent is Caruso on D and DeRozan…but DeRozan is getting old and obviously he is not the answer in general. We have ZERO consistent shooters. We get constant open looks but nobody that can take advantage. To Billy’s credit, his offensive schemes give us plenty of opportunities to capitalize but we have no killers on this team. If something throws them off mentally, it’s over. Bulls are weak mentally.

34. Shameful job of coaching. What was that?

35. Can’t believe I watched every game this season all for this no-effort finale

36. # FIRE AKME AND SELL THE FUCKING TEAM REINSDORF, WE’RE DONE WITH YOUR SHIT

37. I would say it’s over but Jerry Reinsdorf is still the owner.

    *sigh*

    See y’all next season.

38. Much like last year the Heat just thoroughly out coach and out class the Bulls. Wanted it to be more of a fight, but the Bulls and Billy D just had no answer to the Heats game plan. Frustrating to see what a competent organization looks like.

    To try and be just somewhat positive, feel a little better about next year than the feeling of going into this season.

    Coby and Ayo showed pretty remarkable improvement. They’re never going to be superstars but have to imagine they’ll be going into this off season more focused than ever based on the success they had. They were complete question marks last off season but they should be hungry and have a good idea of their path forward.

    Dalen Terry needs to find that corner 3. Big If, but if he gets that he will be a solid rotation piece going forward.

    Unfortunately, like Coby and Ayo last season, Patrick Williams another question mark. I think he can still be a solid starter but hope of anything more than that is just wishful thinking.

    Lavine, Vuc, and probably Demar just need to go. Rip the band-aid off and hope you get lucky in the draft. It’s pretty obvious where the team as a whole caps out at and they need to try another avenue. Admire the continuity but this just ain’t cutting it.
