RS 24/25 - Mavs @ Bulls (Sat 8PM)

The Bulls have been surging. 9-2 last 11 or something. It's going to be a very tough game for them with Hardy back on form.

Suns lost and are full game behind, Mavs and Kings are clear favourites given the schedule.

Bulls (and Giddey) made everything against Luka Fakers so they will shot 20% tonight. Unfortunately.

Gafford and Lively are coming back soon, most likely Brooklyn or ATL at home.

Beating the loser of 7-8 in a single elimination game ia going to be tough, but PJ, AD and Lively frontcort is going to be an absolte terror in a PO series, this team sucks at shooting and doesn't have a single.perimeter iso scorer, but they are huge, and elite defensively.

We once hand a strong backcouet. Chicago has a stable 1 and 2 guard now and they're why the team is dangerous.

Giddey finished all his luck with that halfcourt buzzer beater. Law of averages says he's bound to have an off night soon. Hopefully this game.

This will leave Dinwiddie and Naji as only players capable of dribbling on roster, Hardy is bad at it but can do it

He will miss either 4 games (Nets, ATL and 2×LAC) or 5 (LAL) if they choose to leave room to sign Edwards also.

Mavs are 9th, Kings are terrible...
Bulls almost pulled off another insane comeback.
AD looks like KP in 21, just have the surgery man...

Apparently his doctors said no need. He needs to get a 2nd opinion on that. Either he cant move well because of the injury or he's just jogging back to take it easy.

Told you he's going to fall back down. Law of averages. 3 out of 12 from 2 pt range and 0% from 3. -14 for the game. How these guys managed to hunt Luka and the lakers for 2 games I have no idea.

That being said, Dinwiddie's game is scheduled to come back down to Earth anytime soon again.

Mavs play defense. Lakers don't. Luka is a cone.

Lakers played good defense vs Bulls until the end. Bulls were making some crazy contested shots including the very last one. Lakers also went 32-17 in the 3rd Q when Bulls hunted Doncic but he played good defense and his playmaking made huge difference. Lakers could have won the game but Lebron completely left his guy wide open on the 3pt shot and then botched the inbound play. Bulls scored exactly the same amount of points vs Mavs as they did vs Lakers.

Also, check Lakers starters +/- in that game if you think one specific player was the problem.
