Billy Donovan discovers the harsh reality of Chicago amidst the lost troubles
lately, Billy Donovan laid down the law in connection with the serious struggles that plague them Chicago Bulls. Currently, the Bulls are 9-14 and on a seven-game losing streak.
Last week, they had to endure a brutal 32-point loss to the veteran-laden Golden State Warriors, 123-91. On Friday, they will head to Charlotte to take on the Hornets. Meanwhile, some are surprised by who the Bulls have lost to recently, including the lowly New Orleans Pelicans and Indiana Pacers.
However, head coach Billy Donovan kept fair when assessing the current situation, per
Joel Lorenzi of Athletic. Basically, while watching the tape, Donovan said that no one should be surprised that the Bulls lost to those teams.
“People want to sit there and say, ‘Well, you lost to New Orleans. They had a bad record.’ “Indiana, bad record,” Donovan said. “I don’t think we’re any different than those teams. We’re just not gifted to go in there (and) if we show up, we’re going to win games. … I don’t look at it that way at all when I watch tape.”
A revolving door of injuries impact on top talent and lack of cohesion contributed to the Bulls’ mounting losses.
All it takes is one win to put the Bulls back in the saddle
Without a doubt, things are not going well in Chicago, to put it mildly. They went from an unexpected 6-1 start to now in the NBA deadlock.
It is said, they one win needed to lift their spirits. Indeed, one win cannot automatically be expected to turn things around, nor to get Chicago back to where it was at the start of the season.
But the boost in morale is enough to restore a sense of collective confidence. A significant aspect of Donovan’s coaching philosophy is the emphasis on team chemistry.
When you lose, the chemistry is bad. However, when you win, it’s the opposite.
All you need is one, one is all you need.
