Just when you think the Bulls can't possibly sink any lower they pull off a stinker like this. I missed the game and thank goodness. How could they possibly lose to a team this bad at home? Well, I know by now that the Bulls are fully capable of losing a game to anyone, and I could probably include high school teams as opponents.
So, a box analysis -- we get outscored 15-4 in overtime. That indicates our gutlessness. They hugely out rebound us, and Tyrus ends up with 1 measly rebound. He had some blocked shots, but he needs to pull down more boards. OK City clearly wasn't shooting well, making only 1-10 from outside the arc and 40-98 field goals. Turnovers wasn't the problem (although Ben had 5) because we had one less than they did. Therefore, my guess is that our defense was crap and we let them control the boards.
The other thing to catch my eye was that Larry Hughes got the most time on the floor! What the hell is Vinny thinking? I know Thabo was sick and we were short, and also we want to showcase him for a trade, but come on! Also Gray didn't play again which is also curious because of our rebounding problem. Noah and Thomas had 4 and 6 points, so they clearly weren't having career nights.
This team needs a trade really, really badly.
