Nuggets gutted out a big win last night w/out Jokic on the road vs Houston, who was on a big winning streak.

The West playoff seedlings are so extremely tight that you have to expect a big effort from Nuggs. They are 1 game behind Rockets for 2 seed.

Just feels like one of those scenarios, after such an awesome win vs LA, where the Bulls will have a let down. Now if they win the game and our boys do some wild stuff again, this board will explode.
I hate the Chicago Bulls. I miss Derrick, Jo, Taj, Jimmy, Lu, BG, Kirk, Noc….I’ll stop there.

8 PM start nice I can actually watch some of this live. This also feels like a letdown game to me, last stop on the road trip coming off a big win, playing against a team without their biggest star. Hopefully Bulls stays hungry, I'd love to see Matas have another 25+ MPG game.

They're pretty bad without Joker...40% win rate which would be 13th in the WC. This is like the Kings game without Sabonis, they're also like 40% without him.

I think the let down comes in the next game against the Lakers. They will be looking to clown us at home.

Don’t wanna jinx it but that game for the Lakers will be their 3rd game in 4th night. I think it will be a close game.

The Bulls have spent the last two months quietly turning their season around. The new guys are fitting in nicely, the roster has quickly built chemistry, and we're starting to see a new identity forming on both ends of the ball. But as always... how long can they keep this up?


Reminds me of Toronto. They were 8-2 in January with wins against quality opponents: GS, Boston Celtics, LA Clippers. Then they lost almost every game. Then they got back on a 6-4 streak, now they've lost 4 in a row. A lot of the high quality play doesn't last all season, and a lot of it is schedule driven.

No Joker, no Aaron Gordon and Nuggets on the second game of a b2b. I’m expecting a win
I'm not here to argue.

No Jokic, Gordon and possibly Murray tonight. Who exactly is going to clown us? No one has done that recently.

Im pretty sure Mariachi band sang the wrong lyrics to the National Anthem. We should get an automatic win for that right?

Any game is a potential loss with Vuc defending the paint.
