No Knicks fan goes into the wilderness for the the last games of the season. I mean, Divo’s child was born while he played 50+ minutes.

LOL

If the lyrics also mentioned Boston and Miami, maybe I'd have thought it was prescient!

OG is the new Bacon. Everything is better with him on it

Even with milkshake?

Milkshakes, Pickles, Lasagna, OG goes well with everything

I can't wait for his Saturday.

I appreciate your optimism, Wingo, but we were getting bullied by the Bulls for 4 quarters, the 39 win Bulls who had nothing to play for. Yeah, we won 50 games, but I wouldn't say that we have been looking good as of late.

the bulls aren’t without talent and they were been playing better down the stretch of the season. there’s no shame in having to go the distance in a game with them playing motivated.

Yeah, the Bulls record doesn't tell the story. They're actually going to be as tough as any other team in the East. If they do face the Celtics they actually have a chance despite what the Celtics worshippers say.

I agree. I hope the can beat ATL and wear out Boston in a 7 game series even if they lose. One and done play in games can go either way.

His length is the only weakness on defense.

Wow. I knew he's been a lot better this year it felt like. But I didn't know he was doing this well.

Though I'm not that surprised since he's got one of the highest BBIQs in the league so it makes sense he would be good at team defense. But even his man to man has been pretty good too.

Disturbingly funny. I like watching this sicko screaming at bad defensive coverages.

I believe that's why his shot was off. He was thinking and learning too much on the defense end. He's better if you watch his rotations now compared to when the trade happened. I can see he learned the defensive rotations

I'm not sure many had an issue with Bogs. It was Burks that had people upset. With good reason. Thankfully Thibs came to his senses pretty quick with that one. Bogs leaves a bit to be desired on defense but, if he's getting comfortable and his shooting stays hot, he's a good player to have.

I made jokes about him though when he was slobbing out there. Trading Evan for Evan. That trade didn't sit right with me but, what do I know? :lol:

I didn't see Bogs as a Randle replacement. I didn't want Burks eating Miles minutes. We didn't have OG to help. We didn't have Mitch. iHart was on one Achilles. Hart was barking about minutes and his knee was acting up. Jalen was getting banged up. Deuce hadn't hit any sort of stride yet. We were watching the wheels fall off limping into the ASB!! Here comes an injured Bogs and Burks. :lol:

Here we are the 2 seed in the playoffs. We never fell back like Philly did losing Joel and we lost several players for a longer period of time. What a crazy season.

They won't win but they can be a real pain in the ass.

its interesting bc I dont think there's any question he's been targeted LESS this year.

now you know why.

ive also noticed that we will cross match him a lot more and stick him into defending the corner three a lot. which makes a ton of sense.

Wasn't the plan to keep building a winning culture and be an attractive destination when a star asks for a trade?

We already exceeded expectations by getting the 2nd seed and overcoming Randle's injury.
Even if we lose in the 1st round (it would be normal against Philly or Miami), as long as we are competitive, this is a great season.

I think we can go further, but there's no responsibility.

agree with the first part, but couldn't disagree more with the second.
regular season was just awesome from this team, but if they go out in the first round, the tide will turn. there won't be any good vibes after this.
