I only watched the last 1.5 quarters but that felt like a regular season game. I missed basketball so much.

Pels are down so many big men in a pre-season(!) game, that Herb Jones is now playing center.

Everyone said “bleh the Bulls can’t play defense” but I think nearly seven minutes of preseason basketball against the Cavs is conclusive proof to the contrary

I don't think it's fair to conclude this after his first few seasons. He simply hasn't had a chance to shine next to winning players such as Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic until now

Also Lonzo is incredibly popular on the Internet. It's mostly people who don't watch him regularly who claim he's good at basketball.

I've watched a fair amount of Lonzo, he's fine as a player. Has weaknesses, but lmao at being that mad at someone calling him just "good"

To be fair to Lonzo, he has been injured, a lot. He is still a great team defender and makes good, quick passes, especially in transition. His shot is very streaky and he seems to have an aversion to getting into the paint or doing anything to draw multiple defenders towards him.

But that is ok on this Bulls team as LaVine, DeRozan, and Vuc are all really good at that!

e: with all that said, I'm super glad I do not have to watch him play for my favorite team anymore

I had the same reaction as Rick, mostly because his online stans are poison to talking about the team he is playing on. Especially if that team isn't playing up to expectations. It is always "the team failed Lonzo". And it is extremely irksome, especially having to put up with it for multiple seasons.

I hate his stans so much more than I hate his play. It is incomparable.

like I frequently argue with Bulls fans who think he's going to be some all-star Point god or some poo poo.

But as far as what the Bulls need he's a good fit.
