It's that time of year again! The Rodeo Road Trip is upon us wherein we embark on a month-long, eight-city, nine-game journey, with a blessed All Star break in between for some respite, rest, and regrouping.

We commence with our travel east for the first of six games in that conference versus a team looking for revenge. We are missing three starters so it's the usual next man up mentality, and bigger opportunities for expanded roles for others. How will we face the adversity? Who will step up best? May we stay together, abide by good habits, and solidify our fundamentals with a competitive spirit.

WHERE: United Center, Chicago, IL

WHEN: Monday, February 6, 2023, 7pm (CT)





GO SPURS GO!!!

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a sneaky game because this stupid Bulls team keeps losing, almost handing Wemby to Orlando. We need to be careful here and not let them fool us....

I'm SO **** tired... oof need to just stay up a bit longer...

Their intro with those running bulls is ... something else. How did they get their team name, I wonder? Like ours makes sense, this one, not so much in terms of tie in to the city.

Great are we getting a half screen of commercials now? 'Great'.

Keldon guarding DD... alerady 'interesting'. KJ got caught on the screen and whooosh! chasing him for a layup.

Malaki D positioning and direction change (he was still going forward when driven on) needs a lot of work.

Nice drive by Keldon. Off glass layup.

Malaki said he watches DD for mid range game. Should be interesting to hear what he gets from this game.

Box. Out.

Keldon having his BIG BODY way in their key WOOT!

Keldon and Jakob a wonderful 1-2 punch in the paint.

Jakob the FT savant lol

According to NBA.com it was because they were the meatpacking capital of the world

"They didn't rotate to box out Vuc" - pretty sure we're noticed variations of this in many games this season. Can we please rotate for help D and box out?

Interesting! Good info, gump, thanks! That makes sense, then. I like the history.

I was sitting here trying to think of how the Bulls could be as bad as they are with the players they have.

Then I saw Andre Drummond come into the game.....

Well we're out at the arc contesting. They're just making tough shots. You tip your hat.
