Markkanen is a friggin monster.

I like the quote- it makes me chuckle. And it was/is pretty much true.

Markkanen did have a great game. An exciting game. At one point looked like Cousins was going to decide the game (for Denver). Then some pretty awful FT shooting (again - for Denver). Love and Levert were able to contribute some (important 3s from Love again and some pretty damn important ORB for Levert - which totally made up for some bad one-on-one offensive play...), but all in all the 2nd unit looked weak and the starters needed to contribute pretty high minutes. Jokic did get some of his (well, he isn't MVP for no reason), but I think Markkanen and Mobley did a reasonably good job against him. I expect a difficult game vs Detroit tonight though (again hope the team proves me wrong though and steps up big time - especially the 2nd unit - wishful thinking perhaps, but I want to aim for 3rd-4th seed - Chicago seems to be sinking, Celtics however not so...).

Yeah, the Bulls suck wheat as usual.
