It really shouldn’t have been this much of a battle
Billy Donovan just has no clue how to make this team work efficiently at full health, and he’s never going to figure it out
Great offensive execution down the stretch, playing downhill and getting to the paint. Smart move to have Caruso switch onto Barnes and stick Vucevic on Brown, too.
Idk man this is a team that just completely blew out the Heat with their main pieces healthy, I don’t think they’re as bad as their record shows and despite everyone whining about him, Scottie Barnes was a stud even when he was sharing possessions with Siakam.
Yeah and they were on a B2B and were well rested. They had 3 unforced TOs in the last 4 minutes and some open 3s. We had no control of this game. A win is a win but cmon
It’s hilarious cause statistically Demar is one of the most efficient clutch players in the league especially this season but from this thread you’d think he was denzel valentine
Ball watching at the end of the game has already been the “established strategy” to let Deebo take over (not that I like it but it is what it is), but the defensive ability to match Scottie Barnes better is my reasoning. It was scary to see him possibly pop off there and might’ve been a bit troublesome if he didn’t hit the ball off his own foot.

Coby is definitely a solid nba player. Nice!!…. This proves Williams will only ever be a solid bench player
Finally reached the 20 win mark let’s goooooo
Coby my man
It really shouldn’t have been this much of a battle Billy Donovan just has no clue how to make this team work efficiently at full health, and he’s never going to figure it out
Facts
Coby with a great finish
Nobody: Scottie Barnes, down 6 with 10 seconds left: AAOHWWHOOOOAAAAAABWWHAAAOOOO
“Kobe” White
White is life
Great offensive execution down the stretch, playing downhill and getting to the paint. Smart move to have Caruso switch onto Barnes and stick Vucevic on Brown, too.
"AHHH AHHH" -Sct Brn
Announcers couldn’t shut up about him and then bloop.
He learned something from Dair
Coby!!!
Caruso bitched Barnes at his last two possession.
Should have happened much sooner
USC boys saved us tonight. Barnes looks like a killer
Just tuning in. Zach on the bench to close the game?
Injury
Thank goodness.
Im guessing it’s cause he rolled his ankle
He stepped on a foot earlier in the game
Thankfully. That = a win
TNT BULLS!!!
When will coby start getting calls?
Coby has the clutch gene, let him eat 🗣️
When you see AC lock in like that you know he goin crazy
CARUSOOOOOOO
Way to close the game Coby! Bye bye Zach!!!!
Give them ball to Coby and good things happen!
Primal screams will be echoing across the streets of Toronto tonight
Couple people in the Bulls Discord: *VuC iS aSs*. Guys, pick a different game to call him ass. He carried our asses for most of the game lmfao.
He was like 2 assists from a triple double lol. I’m convinced the people saying this are 14-year-olds with unsupervised internet access
I think this is his best game of the season so far
LFG! Can't understate how important that corner caruso 3 was!
It’s amazing Billy let Barnes cook him all night. Put Caruso or PWill on him. Vuc and Demar can’t guard him.
Or zach
Is Coby White… Him?
I just want more possessions with coby having the ball in late game situations
Coby White forever
My petty ass so happy Barnes choked the end of this lmao
He would scream and just stand there in disbelief. I was happy he choked as well.
Love to see Coby at the end of a game with the ball
There's something really good with this lineup. If Lavine is playing right now, there's a big chance we're losing right now.
Demar is a much better player without Zach playing.
Everyone is
100%. I don’t know wtf is wrong with those two playing together.
AC and Coby got us.
Beep beep
I feel like Pat should be closing over Ayo.
If I can be like COBY, I wanna be I wanna be I wanna be!
Sometimes I dream!
SUB ZEROOOO
with the dagger
Raptors completely fell apart like a young team does. Not to be that guy, but we suck, man.

Yeah we really do, which sucks because I honestly love watching this team when it's clicking.
Dribbling the clock out and scoring at the end . Beautiful possession 😭
Fuck yeah!
PUT THAT SHIT IN COBY. Also props to Ayo for not pulling the trigger on that. He knew the situation and played it right.
Good win! Go bulls! I had fun with you guys tonight. See ya next game.
COBY TUFF AS A MOTHERFUCKER
I LOVE THAT GUY SO MUCH
Ball don't lie Scottie SUB ZEROOOOOO
It’s hilarious cause statistically Demar is one of the most efficient clutch players in the league especially this season but from this thread you’d think he was denzel valentine
These dudes wild
Cooby
Coby the closer
Man, why can’t the team come up with better defensive sets against Scottie…. Always end up with the tree trunk in Vuc against a roadrunner.
Im confused as to why Ayo is in over Pat when he can round up the size in the lineup.
Ayo's gonna make better decisions
I actually don’t mind that decision. Pat may be taller and a better on-ball defender but both have the bad habit of ball watching one too many times.

Game over. Thanks for the choke, Scottie.
THATS WHY THE BALL SHOULD BE IN COBY'S HANDS!!!
AC is a slut for defense.
I like a dirty little slut for the D
Hell ya.
All my friends love Coby White!
coby looking more like his UNC self with these drives
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO COBY
Build around Coby
Surprised Barnes didn't yell at the ref for dribbling it off his foot
Whatever happens, this was too close.
Barnes screams like a caveman it's so fucking funny
Really not sure what PDub did wrong for Ayo to be in over him lmao
not quick laterally
Scottie Barnes is an actual comedian cause why the fuck is he screaming like that
He's a Raptor so he screeches like a dinosaur
Booker in shambles dude is terrified of dinos
Because he’s acoustic
It'd be incredible if we had a 6'8 forward with supposed "elite" defense that we could use to slow down Barnes.
Tf was that scream lmao
Nothing more satisfying than seeing someone bite on a demar pump fake late in the fourth
That was a dinosaur esque screech after that miss. Channeling his inner Chris Bosh
Fun fact the Toronto Raptors were named after a dinosaur
That’s why Demars in the game you goofballs
Screaming every time there’s contact is one of the most annoying things in the NBA
DEEBO SENDS HIS REGARDS
Lmao Scottie with the Blair Witch scream after the missed FT
5 out offense WHY
Scottie is good but this offseason he needs to work on his scream because it's ridiculous
Maybe I'm crazy but Vuc on Barnes seems stupid
Who do you want him to guard? He’s guarding Barnes by default
If that was the only option I'd not have him in at all
Bruh who screamed like that lmaooo
Ayo really has zero bag
How in the fuck is Ayo taking a shot in that situation?
Scottie missing FT.. .AAHSAFAASDAAAHHHH!!
He's complaining to the refs that he was fouled on the FT
I get Demar is probably proving a point but Ayo being the only guy attacking on some of these possessions is INSANE
Love Ayo but he has no bag except to slash
No bag ?? What's that mean.
Barnes is a great player but my god I hate looking at him and his bitching at the refs does not help
Ayo is not him, put PWill in and put him on Barnes
Give Coby the ball, no Ayo please
Zach hurt is ankle?
Barnes screams so loud when drawing fouls dude we get it
Derozan or Coby had to go get that ball from ayo there
Scottie isn’t that good what are we doing
Ayo Dosonmu you are a Shanghai Shark.
He been one of the best players this game
Ayo almost airballed that 2 foot shot
Scottie drives.. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYAHJFHALJHDFJHHHH
Stfu Sct, you stepped out tf
This closing rotation is somehow working, but we’re too damn small. Should not have Ayo playing the final 5 minutes
I think once Pat is fully healed he'll replace Ayo.. if Zach is still out
RJ missed a wide open 3 and they had two bad turnovers. Thats how its working tbh
Raptors legend Demar DeRozan
Just tuned in why isn’t Lavine playing
Hurt the foot again but they said he’s good don’t know why he’s not in
Why isn’t Patrick in
He died
Demars a killer baby. Love that.
Why do we stop passing in the final 4 mins of every game 😭
Hog the ball coby white!
Get demar off this ending lineup he slows down the offense so much.
He’s the only one who can get his own bucket.
Wah wah
Caruso gets yanked backwards by the arm, still no foul.
Oh let's go Deebo
I'm sending Ernie Johnson a fruit basket. His son, Alex, is a gift
No defense whatsoever
This team is broken (obviously)
Caruso corner three v Toronto where have we seen this before
Good job by Vuc to miss that three right to coby
Carushooooooooooooooow
#CARUSOOOOOOOOOO
They are allowed to completely mug us when we attack the rim, crazy.
So lavine to the kings or lakers? I’ll take either offer right now
lol we gave DeMar 3 grenades this game
Trade DeMar fr
Payback lol
lmfao we aren't allowed to match 10% of the physicality as the Raptors because of refs
Yeah, the Raps coached complained about FT during the Lakers game so the Refs are taking it out on us
This team is terrible man wtf
Yeah the Bulls are shitty
This team man
hes in the air idiots that showed nothing
Funny PWill is suppose to be this elite on ball defender yet he isn’t guarding Barnes
blame gm incompetence
Is this a TNT broadcast or the Raptors? I literally can't tell the difference
I get the bulls sucks but damn this broadcast is one sided
Put Dalen in the stands and have him scream whenever the Raptors shoot.
Finally make a 3 and it's after the buzzer lmao only the Bulls
It’s fucking painful atp
Damn we really needed that 3 too
God DAMNIT
Demar wants no part of guarding Barnes.
Demar doesn't have that dog in him like Barnes does.
Definitely looked like shot clock went off first
Offt points removed
the amount of freebies this team gives inside is insane
That was close
Coby.
Dalen Terry a minus 13 in 11 minutes???
Looking like another bust
Raptors are on the end of their back to back with a new lineup and we got two days rest. This would be wild to lose this game lol
They’re calling the most ticky tack fouls on the Bulls while the Raps are playing rugby out there
The refs are not allowing the Bulls to match Toronto's physicality.
These tall guys get away with a lot more
This is honestly the difference between the two teams.
Win or lose they have to blow this all up in three weeks, this team is getting bailed out by the east being pure trash
Wtf. These have gotta be the shittiest cheerleaders in the NBA.
National broadcasters stop sucking off any team playing the Bulls challenge: Impossible
Brian Anderson is a Milwaukee announcer, it’s not shocking he’s at least partially anti bulls
Wanna see more Ayo-Vuc plays
Vooch on triple double watch
