JOIN THE CHGO DIEHARDS! https://www.allchgo.com/join-diehard
The CHGO Bulls crew analyze some statistical trends through the first eleven games of the Chicago Bulls 2024-25 season. Some trends – like the on/off numbers for newcomer Josh Giddey – are concerning. Others – like their effective field goal percentage and pace of play – are encouraging. Which trends are most likely to continue, and which trends are just small sample size oddities likely to correct themselves? Peck, Big Dave and Will Gottlieb break it down. Plus, the guys field some revisited predictions and lingering questions for the season ahead from the CHGO Diehards in Discord.

1:21 Sports Media GOAT doing a Comedy GOAT impression
Remember when everyone called Boylen a clown, and booed him out of the city for coaching a half of a season of Development and everyone cried for "the Tank" and a Full Rebuild? Remember what I said? "You are asking to rebuild the coaching staff which means 5 more years of mediocrity before you even think about contending, and it will stunt everyone's development. Or you stick with what you have and build out in the draft." Here we are again.
I would rather have Giddey closing games than Pat that’s for sure
What rubbish you are talking.
LMAO. Your team is and has been crap for a long time. Now you're blaming the new guy 😅😂. The guy who would be adding a triple double every night on 35 minutes. +/- huh? What was Ayo's +/- vs the Cavs? What was Giddeys? Never knew you dudes were so clueless to have a whole show about the most useless personal stat in basketball.
u u started it right giving the bulls defense credit but i disagree that teams will start doing better. if u havnt noticed we play with alot of size late game. and i think thats the biggest reason why
I don't agree with the takeaway off Giddey in and out of the starting lineup plus minus.
1. Firstly team is starting weak even on wide open shots that Giddey is in the unit for. Once Giddey has heated up he has been taken off. Coby in the same early minutes missed more shots and had just as bad D but the coach who loves familiar vets keeps Coby in and Coby fixes, with Josh performing better at the time taken off.
2. Second and more importantly, Coby and Giddey overlapping minutes is the issue. They don't play well together, and in part because they are equally as bad at D and the worst in the starting lineup there. They need to basically have every minute one is off for the other to be on to maximise there, as both can gel with the two units play styles just not eachother
3. When Ball plays I think they should put him over PWill for the starting lineup as he does make that unit look good, and for those games he actually is key to how I see the best lineups being even if ball only plays maybe 15 minutes those games
Next point is on Pace:
Look how they have shifted who is bringing up the ball proportionally in the slower games and who gets the rebounds so on. Less Giddey and more like PWill or other different players mixed in randomly.
Also coby is so often lazy af on transitoon defence, laziest of all even when he is closest somehow he isn't first baxk
look at the advanced stats of Giddey and Ayo over their NBA careers… VORP Ayo 0.3, Giddey 4.3.. wtf Giddey has only been with the bulls for 10 game…
they didnt own their pick in 2023 matt
Giddey cops alot of hate for being a bad one on one defender , but he has hustled super hard at closing in on oponents trying to shoot wide open 3s. I have no doubt hes a big part of why the opposition 3 point percentage is low.
Need to avoid him gaurding players neer the paint for sure though because the blow right past him
