Be good to get a bounce back win after Saturday night.

Also be good for us to not allow them to rain down 3’s on our heads like we allowed them to on Saturday night.

This could get ugly if Vuc gets going. Ball and Caruso are very good defenders and DeMar is scoring 26ppg too. They're a bad matchup for us across the court.

The main similarity is that they both recently lost to the Rockets.

Hopefully Vuc brings lube and a rubber. I'm getting a bit sick of bigs having career scoring and/or rebounding nights against us.

Vucevic is easily in the top five of worst center matchups for PJ

Would it be wise to start Richards? Should they bring up Vernon just to have another big body?

I don't know if it matters but Chicago has the sixth worst offensive rebounding percentage and are second to last in three point attempts so maybe that helps... but then again Houston had the worst offensive rating in the league and still hung 146 points on us so anything goes with this team

Lavine? Never heard of anyone named Lavine. Must be a repressed memory. *weeps*

Let's go Hornets! As long as they can sustain the defense Chicago will put on the guards we got a chance to win this game. Vuc defers so much in that offense I'd be shocked if they leaned into him for scoring.

Everyone in the starting lineup except Rozier is 6' 7" or 6' 6". Sounds a lot like positionless basketball.

Seriously. That game was so freaking brutal to watch.

And no seconds more brutal than those final 90 seconds or so.

Nicky Dicky getting the start tonight!!!!

Let's hope Vooch doesn't put him in spin cycles and have him rack up 2 or 3 quick fouls.

Really could have used Twin #1 tonight to keep LaVine in check, while Miles keeps DeRozan in check.

JB suggested playing a bigger line up tonight with a McD, Miles and PJ line up at times.

I feel like the FO is trying hard to give Nick a chance to replace Mason as the long term starter. It's on him now to take it

He has not had a very auspicious beginning to the first game he has started...
