We need to win here, can't afford to drop two straight games at any time the rest of the way.

Tonight's action:

BKN -7 Home faves on a back to back versus a Bulls team that plays us tough. Not sure if I like 7 pts especially since we are down Dinwiddie.

O/U is 220.

I'm leaning towards the over.

Bulls are literally tanking.

Stupid to say must win, but very important game. Don't let it get close.

There will be a losing streak during this stretch waiting on Dinwiddie and LeVert, no doubt about it. But we cannot afford to lose to teams like Chicago on our home floor during the next 15 to 20 games, hell really at all the rest of the season.

Lot of short jumpers clanking off the front of the rim.

Brutal start for D-Loading... Some questionable threes and he didn't try on that screen... I think I smell an Atkinson benching :lol:

But seriously, it's moments like these when we miss Dinwiddie, someone has to take it to the rim.

Need to get to the rim. Watch Carroll draw a shooting foul within a few possessions.

I came sooooooooooooooo close to taking the Chicago money line too. Let's hope I made the right decision.

Very nice end to the quarter. Russell's defense has really come along way even though he has a long way to go. He's gone from a flatout abysmal defender to an at least average one, with the potential to be a good one.

I thought the same thing at that moment and he briefly did lol.

Agree. He's opportunistic. To be average/serviceable he needs to put more effort into getting around screens and close outs.

If Napier never shoots again it will be too soon.

I don't even care that my timing couldn't be worse, dude is 2-10 from the field. If this wasn't the Bulls, he would have shot us into an 18 point hole.
