Sadly I will return home from a multi week work trip just in time for tip off. Not being able to watch has been a blessing.

No Zach, right? This should be a shellacking and I expect nothing less.

At least we'll look good while we get curbstomped.

Easy W. Zach’s out but Coby will probably play.

In true Bulls fashion, we will win this.

Nah. The Bulls will likely win and the "see the Bulls are better without Lavine" crowd will return.

Like why? Why does your mind instantly go there?
Anyway hopefully we get curbstomped.

LaVine out, but Coby likely back, Tatum a GTD.
Easy W for the Bulls, keeping the play-in hopes alive.

I just hope that a win doesn't make AK think "We can beat the top teams in the NBA. Time to push for the playoffs!".

Good news everyone. My train was delayed 2 hours so I’ll miss the game after all. Another night of ignorant bliss preserved.

Re: Bulls @ Celtics 6:30pm CT Jan. 29 2025
The hunt for the Mediocrity title in the east got more interesting today with Atlanta losing Jalen Johnson. The 76ers are starting one two ten-day contracts, a plumber, and the owner's labradoodle tonight against the Kings. The Raptors have won four in a row for some reason.
I'm incredibly glad I don't gamble on sports anymore. I think the Bulls would have bankrupted me weeks ago with their extreme variance in play. The first of those two Celtics matchups in December I wondered if we'd see 100 3pt attempts - the teams shot 108. We won't see that many tonight with both teams missing shooters, but I expect one team to lose because they missed 30+ threes.

Atlanta has also lost 6 straight games, Johnson is put for the season. Do they make moves to stay out of the lottery? They owe their pick to San Antonio.
The Raptors as you mentioned have won 4 straight and 6 of their last 7, with Washington being their next opponent followed by the Bulls.
76ers don't have PG13 for a few games also as he's got an injury also and they owe a pick to the Thunder this year (top 6 protected).

Ah, the East. We’re going to win 38 games and end up with the 5th seed.

I’m 51. I’ve seen some bad conferences. But this year’s East has to be the worst from top to bottom. The title could stay in the East. But really there’s 2 good teams. Thats it. Then 2-3 nice teams. Then a bunch of ass.

Re: Bulls @ Celtics 6:30pm CT Jan. 29 2025
All the upsets have been very reliant on Zach's hyper efficient scoring, can't see our typical upset W without him.
Lavine True Shooting
Denver: 71%
Clippers: 69%
Knicks: 73%
Boston: 78% (36 points)

KP starting off strong. I'd like to see them attack him on defense like they did last time in Boston.
