Okoro will eventually score a point, right?

Right?

Congrats Pat.

Best game of your career.

You impacted the game in a big way.

If we get this Pat most of the season we will be getting lots of wins and will be watching the play in. Sure is fun to watch a guy play the exact way you thought he could with his body prototype.

Now just shoot those 3s when you’re open. Sure seems like he’s so gassed he doesn’t have the legs to shoot the 3.

Yep. Think he will be going to the bench very soon though. He will also figure it out and get going but I think his ceiling is pretty low. He’s in his own head right now.

We also haven't been attempting that many 3s yet either. We only had 27 attempts today. Which would be really low in general.

Jalen Smith deserves a shout. I thought the Giards all played well.

2-0 baby!


Dude just say he played well, it's like it's impossible for you to praise him without following it up with a criticism.

This team playing like this without Coby (and Collins to a lesser degree) is very impressive. Winning this one with Buzelis as a non factor even more impressive. They can go 10+ deep on any given night, and Donovan can just ride the hot hands.


And that’s exactly what Billy will do.

Pat shut down Banchero.

He did play amazing. Most impactful player outside of Tre.

Bulls are undefeated baby ! Everyone contributed except maybe Matas who was in foul trouble.

Orlando usually gives the bulls a lot of problems but today they were in control from start to finish. Nice win.

Tre Jones makes such a huge difference. High IQ player who helps on both ends. So glad they re signed him.

Next week we going to have some entertaining games. Atlanta, Demar and Zach’s Kings, and NY twice.

Tre was fantastic. Pat was amazing. Ayo came on late. Jalen was great. Huerter was completely solid. The whole bench played well actually. 7 players in double figures.

Josh was ok he just didnt shoot well but had 21pts 8rebs 3asts.
Matas got hosed for fouls and really couldnt make an impact tonight.
Okoro was the master of nothing again tonight. 0-6

But we have the deepest bench in the league and as most predicted, the bench will win us a few games. Tonight was one of those games.


So Pat was amazing with 12 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists (+12)... but Huerter was just solid with 11 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists (+14)???

58 points by bench. Wow they had more points than starters

Matas, worst game of his career ...just burn the tape, forget this game, move on, nothing to see here, never happened.

Aggressive Pat 2 games in a row? I said last time I was wiping my eyes, now I don't know what to do with my hands. May it stay with him whole season. Still not worth #4 pick

Great news is, Giddey from end of last season is his baseline and not hot month or two. He didn't have great game, but if this is his average, we cooking.

Huerter didn't shoot well, but i have to say my apology, I wasn't familiar with his stat stuffing game. Lot of rebounds and assists-.

Love Tre the ball hound, plus enough offense that I wouldn't mind Tre, Giddey, Coby white lineup later in future with Matas and VUC.

I propose new name for the bogans and I call it from now on THE OKORO.
What the hell dude, starter in 2 games, 0-fer, 0 points, just total zero, non factor

Great win, we beat two team where their fan base looking down on us and their feeling themselves as playoff teams. Well well.....

So when does the preseason end, so we can start losing games in the regular season?
Why so serious?

It wasn't Pat's statistical best game of his career but in terms of just impact on both ends, it may have been a top 7 or 8th game in his career.

You thought he was amazing? You didn't think he made a few bonehead plays? Sorry but I see what I saw and I get to have an opinion. If you have a different one, say so. Otherwise Pound sand.

Pat shut down Banchero. Yes. Amazing game.

Huerter played well too.

Its relative.

Huerter can regularly do those numbers. He did so last season on the regular. Pat actually being impactful is more of an eye opener.
