Is Dray still out? If so, could get ugly.

Any news on Lee’s status? Is he out?

Damn didn't realize that this game was nationally televised. Sucks that Dray might be out and likely will be, but it gives a chance for other guys to step up, and maybe some Kuminga opportunities?

Get well soon Dray

Vucevic is out for the Bulls (COVID), which probably helps the Warriors (particularly if Draymond is out). Should be a fun, fast-paced game, hopefully…..
If I don't have anything funny to say, can I still have a signature?

Bulls match up well for small ball.

Ball, lavine, demar vs curry, poole, and wiggs. Not a fan of the match ups.

I would really like to see big gp2 minutes and for poole to come out firing. Caruso is the bulls gp2; just a defensive menace right now.

Anybody else a bit worried about guys getting COVID for us against the Bulls? Our depth has been great, but it would suck to lose anybody for a stretch

Bulls length is elite. Lonzo, Lavine, DeRozan...yikes!

Didn't the Twolves have Wiggins, Lavine paired with Rubio & KAT at one point?? If they grew that core together they'd be scary.

According to their front office the Bulls are fully vaccinated. Of course, there's no guarantee against breakthrough cases.

Edit: I would think they would test the rest of the team after Vucevic was positive but they haven't announced it.

We Bulls fans have been assuming Vuc caught it from Embiid when we played the Sixers twice last week, and since he tested positive everybody who played them had to get tested. It's been 6 days now so if anybody else who was exposed caught it they would start to test positive.

Probably the best team we've played. Can't wait to see what happens. But -5.5 that's a pretty big number

Even if Chicago's without Vucevic, Warriors have been playing without Klay, Wiseman and now maybe Draymond so it's not like injuries can be an excuse for either team that loses. This just means we get to see Steph play a bit more aggressively tonight which means MVP mode turned up a few notches.

If Draymond is out, might see Kuminga get more of an opportunity tonight

This is going to be rough without Draymond.

Speaking of Draymond, does anyone know what this is all about? Poole chucking, missed defensive assignment, or what?

That sounds about right. If Draymond is out, we should see a lot more of OPJ and Bjelica tonight, maybe JTA as well. But after seeing what the Warriors looked like without Dray vs. Minnesota, I'm a little worried about Chicago, they have a small margin of error tonight, turnovers must be kept in check.
