Lonzo and Caruso are everywhere on D. They are very handsy, in passing lanes, hustling a lot from what I've seen.

It’s easy to be ranked first in defense when half your games are against brickillian

Chuck guarantees that we lose to the Bulls:

I love the "expert" analysis from Shaq .."they play with energy"

I think we cook them. We’re their first real challenge. All the pressure is on them to prove their unworthy hype.

They’re also last in rebounding I think

Our schedule was tougher than Bulls except for Orlando. And we had a letdown game vs them in the back to back. That will skew the stats. That said Vuzevic, DeRozan, Lavine , Lonzo is a very good top 4. Very good. Ours is a bit more motley crue but we have good coaching, high energy guys and a ridiculously deep bench.

It’s going to be a tough game. It can go either way. Hopefully will be fun to watch.

Last year we tended to play the top teams quite well rarely getting blown out but losing tight games. This year the talent is significantly upgraded. Those stretches of our offense getting shut down when Randle wasn't carrying us seem to be a thing of the past. Floor spacing soooo much better. Multiple 3 point threats. Also Guys that can take it to the rim. Just enough defense too.

Man, tomorrow is going to be a special night.

So glad Thibs is doing well for you guys, I love love LOVED those teams he coached and Taj and Derrick are forever our guys. Glad we're back and I'm glad you guys are back.

Noah’s stint in NYC was disgraceful. I don’t care if Thibs will be there. The Bulls are ridiculous to do their tribute when we’re in town.

When you said in pre-season you were gunning for Buzz’s crown and claiming TOY honors for yourself this season you weren’t kidding

I became a basketball fan because of Iverson, and somehow became a diehard Knicks fan during the Isiah years. What made me hate the Bulls and their fans over on the RealGM Bulls board was the Eddy Curry trade, and the subsequent Knicks draft pick watch threads they had over there. Not to mention all of the success those teams had and the suffering the Knicks franchise endured simultaneously, largely because of that trade.

I'll always find great joy in watching the Knicks beat the Bulls, and will relish the moment when the Knicks take a higher seed this season, and possibly a playoff series win over Chicago in the spring.

That being said, Rose was always my favorite non-Knick as a Bull, always respected those gritty teams and still rooted for them over LeBron and Celtics, and the fans on that board are generally pretty smart and respectable people. So good luck, fellas (and ladies, if there are any Chi-town Greenies lurking). May the best team win tomorrow night.

Damn I didn’t even think that was possible, props to you

That’s like to deciding to become a vegetarian after eating a tofu hot dog

Technically his stint is still ongoing, we are paying him $6,431,666 this season

Nothing more than a barbershop hang out vibe. They never give good analysis.

The bulls are not good look at who they played and they have no bench.
