Nice shooting from Kawhi 2.0 :D

Also, are we still concerned about Zach's 3-point percentage?

These last 2 games sting. But I am so happy with what I am seeing going forward. This is the Clippers full squad. We are missing 5 guys. And we were within a basket of winning both games.

That BS call on Lou Williams and Batum screwed us big time.

The Bulls played fantastic. This game didn't come down to the wire because the Clips put in a bad performance, or load managed, or were missing players. It came down to the wire because the Bulls were every bit as good as one of the Western favorites.

Coby is playing better than I thought he would. So is Zach and P-Will, and Wendell was solid, as I expect him to be. I'm just really happy with the core of this team. And Lauri might count in that mix too, we will need to see when he comes back.

We missed Sato today. The Bulls asked too much of Coby and he got tired at the end of the game. It would have been helpful to spell Coby with a sure ballhandler. But that's not a criticism of Coby, he did a whole lot right.

The Bulls lost these past two games but I like the effort and I can see development from a bunch of players. Even though I have not been a big fan of Lavine in the past, he is proving me wrong this season. Hopefully, he continues to progress

We we basically played a full Clippers squad to the end missing 3 key plays and arguably two of our top 3. I can take a loss like this.

Zach is a star. Anyone disagreeing can fight me!

These Ls hurt so much. Great effort obviously, but we should've won all these games on the trip damnit.

Zach and Pat with great games. Wendell with a decent game. Temple and thad hit some timely shots, and coby had some nice assists.

Gotta cut down on those turnovers though...oh and refs had some bs calls that also impacted the game smh

idgaf that he airballed that last 3. Dude was on fire. I think the issue was he overthought that last jumper and did that double pump which lead to the airball.

Patrick Williams showing flashes of who he is gonna be. Really impressive showing with the LeBron/Kawhi matchups back to back.

Kawhi getting the Coby switch on the PnR killed us. Not sure what you can do about that. Guys rotated to help and it worked at times.

That Coby TO hurt.

Didn’t watch the game after half time, but we should’ve won shooting 61%. Gave up too many offensive rebounding and turned the ball over too much, and that was the game right there. Coby with 13 assists is pretty nice too.

Could probably use a ball handler out there (Sato or Arch) so Coby can go back to being a scorer again.

Great shooting from Bulls. Everyone, except Coby and even he didn't have bad night, were having their best shooting night and Bulls still lost. 22 turnovers and 12 offensive rebounds meant Clippers took 15 fga's and 8 fta's more. Most likely Bulls won't improve their offense from that showing, so it is time to start improve the defense.

And people who were concerned about Zach's 3-point percentage should still be worried about it. One game doesn't change the situation.

We shot 60% from the field and still somehow lost this feels like something that doesn't happen that often. Fun game we look like an entirely different team out there. Clean up the TOs and start playing defense and we could possibly make the playoffs.

This last two weeks is the first time I have considered that Zach and Coby could work long term. Still prefer a true facilitator, but this backcourt may actually be playable on a winning team. Credit to the duo and BD

This is a legitimate NBA team..went toe to toe with 2 of the best teams in the west and just barely lost. This is all without a full roster as well. Playoffs have to be the goal this year, we are good enough.

Great game. As others have said, this was basically the full Clippers squad rested at home playing well and they were a player or two away from losing.

Chicago's defense is kind of unlucky. Teams are hitting a ridiculous percentage of contested shots right now. At some point, this is going to turn around and the Bulls are going to decimate a few teams.

My only complaint is the turnovers. There was a lot of really bad passes.

Zach is a stud.

it would help with the bulls ever tried to over rule some of the calls. they just take it like b.... kawhi gets a foul they fight for it and win. its really about having some balls they got screwed by the refs and took it. and you can tell there clipper homers, even the camera angles only show the advantage in there favor, both them fouls were no contact

Zach needs help out there. Lauri coming back should relieve some pressure but Coby has disappointed me with his inability to get points. I'll chalk it up to growing pains but I hope to see marked improvement this year.

We're much better than I thought we'd be.

Very encouraging signs of progress.
