This is gonna age horribly in a year or two, no offense.

I accept that and am willing to take my lumps for misguided hot takes.

This is so unnecessary. And is why the Bulls have so many "clutch" games

Like he ran out of turbo

He's clearly banged up - he turned his ankle early and has done nothing but get beat up since then. He is butching up because they have no other great options. His shot has been off for much of this game, but sometimes he looks like he should be in the locker room with a trainer. His defense in the last minute was crucial to this W.

Nice strip from Caruso. Always contributing even when the shot isn't falling. Win is a win.

Refs blew it in our favor a couple of times, nice to be on the other side of bad officiating.
Great game from Ayo. Everyone else showed up to work I guess.

Drummond with his typical shoddy touch around the rim but atypical free throw shooting.

If you’ve ever complained there’s no such thing as a positive loss … than you can’t ever complain about a win in my book.

Good job Bulls. DeMar is something to behold. He’s still dominating at age 35, bonkers.

3 years with Bulls. Last year he was third in Clutch POY. Year before, they didn’t have award but if they did he absolutely would have won it (I don’t know for sure, but feels like that was his best of all three years with Bulls). This year he’s got a 50-50 chance to win with Steph.

That’s amazing, this guy is the truest of true hoopers.

That play when he beat his guy off dribble and got the And-1 to tie it back up. Whew, he still is a massively balanced athlete and clearly is in 99% in bball IQ.

Ayton is so crucial to that team. Vuc and Drummond looked like they were playing against college kids when they went up against the rest of those guys.

That guy has to have the most clutch iso and-1s in the league.

Simmons is nothing easy either. Bad team makes it more difficult but he’s a solid #2 on a legit team and a try-hard #1 worthy of best defender covering him.

AC is the best perimeter defender in NBA. I feel very confident in that. Watching him play defense in clutch is second only to DeMar playing offense in clutch.

So glad these guys have been making this year worth I bc eating and watching!

One game away from .500, will we finally get over the hump.

Vuc is so terrible......we barely won.....I hate my favorite team!

sco · Post #79 » by **sco** » Tue Mar 19, 2024 2:48 am

This one had trap game all over it...especially without Coby. Got too close when POR started hitting 3's at the end.

Demar is 99% of our clutch stats. Dude is cash money.
Vuc had a nice game (without a clear rim protector on the opponent)
Ayo had another nice game, but I will say he really hurt us with the shots that he passed-up...he should have taken at least 5 more shots.
Caruso gutted it out...thank goodness!

3.5 back of Heat. (Unfortunately they’ll have tiebreaker with much better conf record and tied head to head). So we gotta get one up on them. (They have a tough stretch next four games, but easier rest of way).

4 back of Indy. 2-1 head to head, with big game upcoming (cement tiebreak while also getting very close to them in ranking).

4.5 back of Philly. We locked up tiebreaker against them. They have a REALLY tough stretch next 6 games.

Bulls should be able to, need to go 4-1 in next 5. Would be awesome to go 5-1 in next 6 to finish month. Would be wild to see how the records stack up heading into last month (especially then hopefully having tiebreakers against 2 of them). 4-2 in next 6 would still be a win and get us over .500.
