No excuses today. Stomp the Bulls out until they're unresponsive. Nothing else will be acceptable.

100% Disagree on this one MDB.

-are the bulls a poor team? Yes.
-are we better? Yes.
-Do we have much more incentive to win? Yes.

But you are overlooking a ton. Lets not forget we played the bulls on the road a few weeks back and it was a dogfight. we trailed basically the entire game before eeking it out late an you could argue we might not have won that game if portis didnt leave late with injury.

This is a sunday afternoon game... 9 times out of 10 those are ugly, sloppy, shatshows of a game.

Bull match up decentish with us, we are team they know they can compete with and may come out with fire knowing they have a better chance at a win. it will probably be another ugly game.

I'd be disappointed with a loss but i can absolutely see one coming. there is also the trap game with boston tommorow aspect.

Chicago are still playing really hard. Now that they have LaVine back they can def give us trouble.

They also play a slow, gritty brand of basketball that we tend to struggle against.

Still, we should get the win.

Nets should win this one, but i'm not ruling out a loss here, chicago always seems to play us tough.

I think we're playing better basketball at this point but even if they do give us a fight, which isn't at all a laughable idea based off of the last contest, I still expect the Nets to execute and win.

Good 1st quarter besides giving up the Lavine bucket there.

Carroll playing himself out of his hot shooting, by being too trigger happy.

Kinda feels like Rodi is about to be forgotten on the team.

Traveon Graham must've had a monster training camp cause Kenny really loves the dude without much production to show for it.

These technicals for "slamming" the ball need to be taken out of the game

Horrible phantom foul. It amazes me when these refs miss a call and call techs for displaying frustration over their own stupidity.
