Gay pride night. Some of it is rather over the top.
I suppose the bottom line is, you have to cater to your clientele. That ain't my world, but I have grown to not get bothered by things like that anymore.

Apparently even the halftime show is required to tank

Morant is not a good outside shooter, but I kind of agree otherwise.

He is not a good outside shooter yet, but by all accounts he has good mechanics. He needs more repetitions. He is an incredible floor general, though.

The Dunn experiment has been a disaster this year. He has regressed to his rookie season. He can't shoot and he run a play without turning it over.

When Zach is running the team, Dunn's defender sags off the three-point line to crowd the paint.

Looks like teams are just practicing, nothing of the intensity from watching College games.

Agreed, it feels almost like "elite defender" is just a state of mind at this point unless you're blocking shots or getting clean steals
Players like Dunn have a plummeting value in today's NBA

nice first quarter. For the Bulls anyway. Every game shows how much "The core" was never anything to care about.
