This game will struggle mainly due to them not letting us get out and running. Keeping is to half court is what is going to kill us.

We've been asking for a lot from Dalen Terry and he's been solid, but for tonight I think we needed depth in the form of Lonzo and Huerter to have a chance.

Guys will certainly have to cut when Coby or Giddey are driving. They are collapsing on them and their length will give Coby or Giddey alot of problems. Coby has had 2 of his 3 shots blocked. So guys have to be on the move.

This is going about how I expected. We have no chance.

Just started watching but I see that OKC has both Holmgren and Hartenstein in... is Billy going to give it a thought to play both Vuc and Collins?

Coby and Josh need to get it going offensively.

Throw in the towel. We might lose by 50. Don’t belong on the same court as OKC.

Heat about to beat the Wiz. We’ll be firmly in that 9th spot for now. Unfortunately, the Heat play the Celtics next.

Ayo, Tre Jones, Lonzo, Kevin Huerter. We’re missing some key guys for a matchup like this.

Looking forward to playing them next season

So if the Bulls somehow out-tank San Antonio and Portland, and lose in the play in, would they end up picking 8th?

And if they win the play in and get the 8th playoff spot, would they pick 15th?

They aren’t that good, but yeah matchup is bad and bulls in general are having a terrible game on top of it. OKC had 45 pts in that 2nd quarter.

I highly doubt they could get worse than SA with the Bulls being up 2 wins. But the 8th spot is possible. Miami is playing better, and Portland has winnable games, both teams play the Bulls....

A smart team goes for the draft odds knowing they are locked in the play-in spot, and have zero chance in the playoffs.

All I wanted was to not get embarrassed. I dont want to see the OKC sideline laughing with towels on their heads by halftime. They are shooting the lights out. But we have also been equally horrible.

Everyone besides Matas was absolutely horrible.
