After an impressive 0pt, 3reb effort, Pat Williams is trending toward being an ex-Bull and possibly ex-NBA player.  Bulls are hinting he is going to the bench soon. Maybe never to be seen again.
I think we can just assume he is bad and I'll do my best to call out any above average play instead. Most likely the this is the last P. Williams post on Scoop.

I'll bet the over on your Patrick Williams posts on Scoops at 0.5.

The Sixers sitting Embiid for load management for their home opener is interesting.

I thought the NBA was cracking down on that?

The Bucks have allowed 24 pts in 7 mins?  WTF?

And then only gave up 7 more in the next 8 minutes.

Runs happen. Especially in game 2 of a season with a ton of last year's minutes gone. It's okay.

They read my post?

Bur I see they're down 15.  Does Griffin seem competent?

And apparently their offense isn't either.  Auxiliary coaching options?

Really growing weary of your over-the-top commentary in every topic.

Giving up 68 is a lot in 24 mins.

There's a reason teams don't play this aggressively in their base halfcourt defense.

So far they've played one good quarter out of 8. Not good.

Are they overpressuring and autoswitching?  That always drove me up the wall with Wojo.

I haven't seen an episode of the Gong Show since about 1978, so I'll trust you on that one.

He did fine.
