I guess if you to ask, it doesn't matter on that tier you can roll the dice.


I think they don't trust Brown to defend power forwards. Or they trust McKinnie more to do it.

6 out of the 9 man rotation not playing. No one overcomes that. McKinnie and Hill weren't even in the NBA as of a few weeks ago.

Are some of you guys crazy?


Maybe it's just me but I think good teams should still be competitive with guys out.

We just went through this covid thing through the NBA and some good teams were getting blown out. You just can't lose that many players and replace them with G-leaugers who have no time in the system and expect things to work well.

Its unfortunate that the Bulls are getting hit twice, first with covid and now with knee injuries but if everyone comes back soon, this will be forgotten in a few weeks.

They tried with what they had, not much else you can do being shorthanded

With HALF of their rotation(s) out?


Brooklyn lost to OKC by 20, best not to disrespect any NBA team.
And Memphis isn't just any team, they're a top 3 team in the WC and top 6 in the NBA. Finals contender.

The G-League has to be really bad if Simonovic was able to average 15+ points over 5 games.
