Ball/Zach/DDR/DJJ/Vuc starting lineup is what I would like tonight. I suspect Vuc only plays about 20 minutes.

Caruso/Ayo/Coby/Green/Bradley off the bench.

First time all the players are healthy and playing?

Haha, mostly lazy. I only make them when someone hasn't bothered to do so yet and its game day.

Seconded. That's a pretty strong 10-man rotation.

Been wanting that lineup since PWill went down (was secretly hoping for it when PWill was still playing tbh).

DJJ can provide great value at the 4. Then Billy can do his much liked 4 guard lineup when DJJ is benched or in the backup C spot. Bradley and DJJ can fill out the other 20-25 minutes at C for however long Vuc is limited.

You should seriously question our status as a contender right now. Brooklyn, Milwaukee, Miami, Golden State, Phoenix and the Clippers are contenders. After that there is a long list of "good teams" and the Bulls are in the category.

We probably aren’t a contender. Lower your expectations and enjoy the improvement.

We area much improved team, but we are not a contender. Punchers chance for sure but honestly as you said just enjoy this team. One should not complain about eating at Outback, after eating spam for years. Sure you would prefer Ruth Chris but at least its not spam. Expectations.

Now if they lost tonight I don't think it tempers much of what I think of this team, expect that I would start to think they re getting lazy, which would concern me. Playing Vuc and Caruso, doesn't look like they are mailing it in though, looks like they are coming at Houston like they have every other game of the year except the Indiana game.

I remember one season the Bulls were not playing well(2016 maybe?) and sometimes the game would start before we had a game thread, so Doug, I give you kudos for starting it.

I don’t think the Clippers are real contenders without Kawhi. Miami is questionable too.

Without Kawhi, they are likely much like us, punchers chance of a contender. Kawhi though might be back for a playoff run and Leonard is one of those guys who can seamlessly fit into a team it feels like. What if KLAW came back and so did PAW and we have a finals showdown. I'll take that story line LOL. Obviously Leonard is much better but I think overall our team is just as diverse and good minus Kawhi. Also I want Terrance Mann, that's all lol.

Clippers cant win a title with George as there best player.

No they can't but they can compete. If they had someone other than PG13 who is of quality they could though. Say you traded Zach or DDR for Kawhi today they would have a chance. There is no doubt though thatPG13 is a better second banana. That being said don't know anyone who can win with just one good player like that. That goes through the whole history of basketball. Lakers and Celtics had great squads. Jordan and Lebron couldn't do it on their own. etc...

Both of your guys post are what is so cringe about this board sometimes.

I don’t. Doug this thread sucks and you suck too. We’ll probably lose because of it. You’re like the guy who jumps in a lake to save someone drowning, but only swims halfway there and comes back to shore. Go strong or don’t go at all!

I also hate dogs and children.

Ok I am in for my prediction for Houston tonight

Sorry Houston, Welcome to Chicago Jaylen Green. You got the Dogs in Caruso and Ball to welcome you and the pro's in Zach and DDR to show you the way to your future. FWIW I am excited to see him play, he is a baller. Yet to reach it but think he will have a season like Edwards did last year and will come on in the second half.

This draft class is definitely going to live up to the hype, and then some. Green’s gonna be one of several mega-stars to come out of this group. He drips talent.
