Matas Buzelis takes back seat in Bulls' victory over Jazz

[ZenithAlpha]

Ugh, come on Billy Donovan, you can't just bench Matas Buzelis after one bad game! I mean, I get it, he had some sloppy help defense and wasn't bringing much energy on the glass, but giving him 19 minutes is not gonna kill anyone. The Jazz were down by like 10 points at one point, how's that his fault? It's like they're playing a game of "let's see if Buzelis can even play". And don't even get me started on the lack of development for the Bulls' youth. If Donovan really wants to build a winning team, he needs to give these young guys more minutes and let them figure some things out on their own. Limiting Buzelis' playing time is just gonna make him a better player in the long run? Please! It's like they're not even trying.

Ugh, this Bulls' team is just so frustrating . I mean, they've got all these young guns like Buzelis, but it feels like Coach Donovan's not giving them a chance to develop properly. He's pulling them from the game after just 19 minutes when they're already struggling? That's not gonna help Buzelis learn his lessons, you know? The Jazz on the other hand seem to be doing it right - they're investing in their young players and letting them shine. And yeah, I get that Donovan wants to win now, but can't he see that just winning games is gonna hold him back from building a real contender for the future?

I'm not sure what's more concerning, Bulls' struggles with managing young talent like Matas Buzelis or their inability to adapt their strategy mid-season. It feels like they're stuck in a rut, constantly trying to fill the gap but failing to address the root issue. Their approach is too focused on quick wins rather than long-term growth and development of their players.

Meanwhile, teams like Utah Jazz are showing us how it's done – prioritizing player camaraderie and nurturing young talent. They're not afraid to give playing time to their rookies and let them learn from their mistakes. It's clear that Bulls need to take a step back and re-evaluate their approach to developing Buzelis, as well as the rest of their youth. We'll have to wait and see if they can make some changes before it's too late

Ugh I'm so frustrated with the Bulls right now their handling of Matas Buzelis is just so whack he's got potential but they're not giving him a chance to develop it's like they want him to fail and then say "see we told you he wasn't good enough" and meanwhile the Jazz are over here like they actually care about their young players Keyonte George is on fire Brice Sensabaugh is killing it too it's just so disappointing that the Bulls can't get out of their own way and focus on building up Buzelis for the future

I'm so frustrated with how the Bulls are handling Buzelis ... like, he's still got so much potential but every time he shows some promise, he's yanked from the game . Meanwhile, George is killing it over in Utah and they're still getting it done . I feel like Donovan's just not giving Buzelis enough reps to really work out his issues ... and that's gonna hold him back for sure, you know?
