If the "G-League" wasn't tacked on, I would've thought Livingston was on a consulting gig in Austin.

Expecting another good win
With the winners reviled as sin
And a joy full of taints
And some carping complaints
Only here does success get a spin

Let's see something along the lines of 120-104, and an end to the Caruso infatuation.

Allow me to predict the score:
Bucks - one twenty, Bulls - one oh four.
The Bulls hopes are frozen
They best player is Derozan
Say the line Chones! Fine. Chicago's a whore.

Caruso with a triple double but the Bulls lose because of his defense.

Andre Jackson, Jr. enters the game for the first time with 97 seconds left in the 1st quarter. He gets a tip dunk, assist, and sets a series of heady screens to free up a shooter for a bucket. Griff starts the 2nd quarter with AJJ on the bench and doesn't put him in again until an abridged garbage time due to the game being closer than anticipated.

Caruso, LaVine and DeRozan all "questionable"

They looked decent last season, beat a lot of good teams in the regular season like us, the Celtics, the Sixers, the Nuggets etc multiple times, they made the play in tournament, beat the Raptors and lost the playoff ticket from the future finalists in the last minute of the game. They extended Vucevic, resigned Coby White, took Javon Carter from us, they have DeRozan, LaVine, Caruso and the same coach.

And despite having the same team, slightly stronger with chemistry they completely imploded before the season even begun.

Ah, how quickly they forget the star of the biggest college basketball game in history, and later an outstanding pro.

On January 20, 1968, the Cougars faced No. 1 UCLA inside the Houston Astrodome in the Game of the Century. Played in front of more than 52,000 fans and broadcast to millions, it was the first nationally televised regular-season college basketball game in prime time, setting the stage for how today’s NCAA Tournament fans enjoy the games every year. In a match-up against two college basketball legends, Houston forward Elvin Hayes scored 39 points with 15 rebounds to outduel UCLA's Lew Alcindor (later Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) in a 71-69 Houston victory.

Mostly a joke, but we'd average 140 a game.

10pt win or less: debate tanking
11-20pt win: Griff seat still warm
21-30+: Expected result

Did I get it right?

I'm sure Silver looks at this and thinks of all the missed revenue by not selling the floor seating.

The O should be the least of the concerns. Even without a coach Dame, Giannis, Midds, and Brook would figure out how to be top tier. And either the players (most likely) or AG (doubtful) already made the adjustment of a putting shooters in the corners and using Brook more. So they already made some adjustments, appear unstoppable any time Dame initiates, and we know Dame/Giannis are in the lab working on more.

D is the issue as AG has made no adjustments on his own. Brook forced his way back into drop and Giannis is adjusting to be on the perimeter more because he’s insanely good at basketball.
But they are still doing stupid stuff like pressuring too far out on non-shooting threats, overhelping, gambling for steals, not getting back, and not subbing defensive players in for critical late game possessions.

They need a defensive coordinator added to the staff because the one they hired to be head coach is a legit idiot.
