Ricky another nice game, 20 and 11. He's an even +100 over the last 4 games.

I do miss Rubio - He was my favourite player for ages, but I think the move has served both parties well - So happy to see him finding his feet after a slow start

Ricky has been freed to dominate the ball. The result has been completely predictable: awesome offense.

During their 3 wins last week, Ricky averaged 26 drives/game. Westbrook leads the league with 18 drives/game. The Jazz scored over 120 in all those games (and again tonight).

It's amazing how good offenses are when they let him do his thing and how bad they are when they force him into the confines of what they want him to be.

He's a unique talent in the league and it's painful to see coaches go so long without seeing it

Zach with a big poster tonight and good individual numbers.

But it just hard to win with that guy for some reason. The more minutes he plays, the less likely you are to win. Its weird.

No Markkanen, no Dunn, Mirotic traded for nothing that will help this season and Lopez ejected in the first half. That loss definitely wasn't on Zach. Most of us Bulls fans don't want to win though. A good game from LaVine and a loss is the perfect outcome. Tank on.

He was a -12. By far the worst plus minus of all the starters. We have seen this story before with Zach. His numbers look fine but nothing he does relates to winning basketball games. He is an all time horrific defender. Everyone roots for Zach and they should because he's a great kid but he just doesn't get the team concept of basketball.

Bro, this is a ridiculous thing to say when we had him as a super raw prospect at age 19, 20, and 21.

Agreed. wins at this point in the season are hurtful.

Rubio continues to ball out and Jeff Teague out here stealing money from Glen Taylor

Yeah, just saw those terrible news on the General Board. That's really terrible news for the Adelman family. Nobody deserves unfortunate stuff like this happen to them, much less folks like the Adelmans who appear to be tight knit. My deepest condolences to them

Horrible...saw that on the Wolves twitter 10 min ago when waiting for their "move" to be announced.

Just saw it on the news. Devastating. Man I feel horrible.

“We all talked about it in the locker room, messing around, that one day one of us was going to be on a different team,” LaVine said. “It was me.”

“You can’t be mad,” he said. “You’ve got to understand the decisions that have to be made for the organization. Sometimes it’s bigger than you or whatever feelings you have towards the team. Like I said, we’re friends regardless and I feel like even at the end of the day, it would have been hard for all three of us to stay on the same team.”

Furthermore I consider Tolliver must be re-signed.

Rubio has a hip injury, missed the Blazers game :-(

He's been absolutely crushing, hope its nothing serious.

Joe Ingles is making that team win. Such a talented player.

And didnt know that we drafted Cedi Osman. Pesky player
