Just because you have a bad game doesn’t mean you should be benched especially if you’re one of the stars on the team. It’s like if every team benches their best players because they aren’t having a good game.

@@ttran626 did you even watch the game? When he came into game, he was taking bad shots, gave up threes, and turned the ball over the moment they were coming back… and Im a Zach fan. Any coach with a brain would’ve benched him, especially if there is another player (javonte green) was being more beneficial. Im hoping this will be the last game we see from Zach but as a coach, that was totally reasonable

One of the reasons we've got back into the game was him being on the bench. The role players (and DeRozan) brought us back from -19! He played badly on both ends of the floor and whenever he was on the court we were awful. Yeah, your are a star, amazing player...but if you're hurting the team...

Billy made the right call 4 points from your star is unexplainable and this isn’t the first time this has happened with Zach he’s a great player and worth every bit of money tht the bulls are paying him bt he’s so inconsistent at times and it’s scary DeRozan is a great counterpart to have along with Niko I do believe that they’re missing a true point guard. Obviously we know what’s going on with Lonzo what we don’t know is how serious this injury is and when he’ll be back if at all this season bt there’s too much inconsistency with this team and there’s not one individual to blame it goes on the entire team

The bulls need their facilitator to get them their shots all this hero ball one on one won’t work. The best teams in the nba move the ball well.

carried us where??? lol The man's a streaky, albeit flashy one-way high volume scorer with the keys to a shitty organization. A fringe allstar that gets superstar pay, but is nowhere to be found in the clutch. No other team would pay dude the max to do what he does, unless they had no other option. Which is exactly why we're sitting here with him and he is here with us. He's a got the talent to be a team's 2nd or 3rd option offensively, and while his consistency would be one concern, he for sure doesn't have the heart, leadership or consistency to be the GUY. There just wasn't no one else around to get anywhere close in that type of discussion... and guess why DeRozan took over in a second? Because he's got a little more grit to him. That's all it is.

I said it before this season that lauri was going to ball out and guess which position lauri plays that we need the most? PF. Billy benched lauri when he came back from an injury last season by the time it was all said and done lauri wanted out. We traded lauri for a player who is borderline d league material who barely cracks the rotation. A player who basically averages over 20ppg at a position we haven’t filled since he left all because of good ole billy.
