Yeah this one looks like a loss.

Without green and Tobias we're super small, meanwhile the bulls have a ton of long guards. I don't see how we can defend them

It also seems Tobias is gonna miss several weeks

I hope he's fine, some players take months to regain their level after COVID

I think Chicago will be for real this year. I expect they'll take it to the Sixers.

Chicago has been one of the top 3 teams in the league through the start. They look elite on both ends. This could get ugly.

Unless we are hot as hell from three, we're going to need to figure out what to do when the shots stop dropping and DeRozan and LaVine decide to take over. Need a huge performance from Embiid in that event.

That team looks mega fugazi to me. They'll be good in the regular season, but I don't trust their defensive spine, even more so now that Pat Williams is done for the year.

You have a lot of experience with Ben Simmons so you have a lot of experience with fake regular season hope.

Lol, the Bulls haven't been in the playoffs since Ben joined the league. I don't know if you're in the position to talk trash.

Love the uniforms and the court set up.

This game features a lot of Sixers, former Sixers, and “could have been Sixers.” I remember floating going all in for Lowry and DeRozan to be reunited in on the Sixers. I was also a big proponent of trading for Lonzo at the deadline. And Lavine remains someone who is a tangible target.

Your team gave up all their draft picks for a core of Derozan Lavine and Vucevic :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think the entire Bulls team is a defensive liability/mismatch.

I'm listening to the Bulls PBP and they are advocating leaving Joel open from three rather than closing out. I understand the sentiment, but he shot 37% on decent volume last year. I don't think that's the actual move.
