NEW ORLEANS – The film isn’t lying to Billy Donovan.
Opposing teams have seen the lack of physicality on full display from this Bulls roster – especially on the defensive end – and are doing everything they can to expose it. And not even elite teams. We’re talking about conference basement dwellers like Washington and New Orleans.
There’s blood in the water the last week especially, and the sharks are circling.
“I think teams are putting that on front street and making us confront it, which I think is the best thing for our group quite honestly,” Donovan said after an embarrassing 13-point loss to the Pelicans on Monday.
