No Giddey for the final game.

Sit Coby too I reckon.

2:30am for me so is that 2am for you? Think Coby needs some game time. Seems always worse when he has full rest games. Like he loses his shot when he watches a game!

3am. I'll be well asleep. I'll just check out the boxscore when I wake up.

Better if we lose and Miami wins-then we get a coin flip for the #11/12 spot
The #11 spot was good to us last year!

Can't believe they're actually playing White. Only Chicago.
I guess the Rose ACL tear wasn't enough for the city.

The Rockets are playing their guys without anything to play for as are many teams. Sports science by the teams very well could indicate that resting from Friday to Wednesday creates a bigger risk of injury than playing today.

99% of playoff starters are being rested today.

If anything Pat needs plenty of minutes just to get whatever rhythm he could muster. So far its been tragic again.

It seems like the new look bulls are very dependent on Giddey.

That's just total hyperbole. It's probably closer to 50-50 than you think. Coby also specifically had a terrible start against the Heat after sitting in Cleveland, so prob want to keep him in the flow for a win one game or go home scenario.

Playing at half speed or not. Its still kinda crazy Coby hasn't scored yet.

Seeing The Big Cat makes me think about his career. He used to be so dominant, big and lots of potential… then now just barely playing maybe 3rd center caliber now. Then I looked at Vuc.. not as athletic but Vuc can still dominate with his footwork, shooting and passing. He has aged well as a player.

Nope. Check all the games going on and you will not recognize 99% of the guys playing.

Coby's biggest issue is he's hot or cold, never luke-warm. I swear, you check a 1st half box score any night, and it's either 1/10 or 9/10. The only consolation is he'll tend to heat up in atleast 1Q each night, and salvage an otherwise poor game. It's still a bummer when he starts against the worst team in the league with 3 careless turnovers and 0-5 shooting. Indicates he still hasn't "arrived."

Problem is in elimination play-in games (let alone playoffs), you can't afford to burn half a game trying to find your rhythm.

I cant understand Pat. How could you drive the ball twice and dribble it off his foot twice. :banghead:

The last one luckily was fouled before he kicked the ball. I dont think anyone understands what is going on.

Is Buzelis really being sat for this second half?! He's a rookie!!

I know they don't have roster space (money too), but it makes me think that re-signing Tre Jones might be a good idea. The team could use a PG when Giddey is out and you can't rely on Lonzo.

Is Adem Bona good? Or is it that he's doing well at a time in the season where it doesn't matter much for Philly (he's played well for awhile now)?

Boii Carter gets them shots up
