Just a random thought, but I really do believe this team has way too much talent, even on paper, to have a 5-13 record. They have 2 all star scoring guards (DeRozan even made it last year) Vucevic who while not at his all star level anymore, is still a good center. They have probably the best guard defender in the league, some decent role players. There is just 0 reason why they should have a worse record than the Jazz (no offense) or the Hornets. Idk if its mainly a coaching or effort issue or what
DeRozan and LaVine haven’t really played at All Star levels this season and neither make their teammates better at all
No, it’s really not.
A Mid-3.
What’s actually CRAZY is that anyone is remotely surprised by this. Up to and including the Chicago front office.
That is a tanking situation if I’ve ever seen one. But, somehow, they are even fucking that up. The trade value of their players are plummeting every single game.
