Honestly its fine. Win streak was going to create too much pressure for us. I'm over it. Lets win the next game.

More concerned about Warren than the streak ending.

Clearly didn't have it tonight though. Absolutely agree he shot the Nets out of the game and Vaughn kept him in.

Vaughn can make mistakes. Its ok.

I mean we could have put Harris in and he might have missed all those shots too.

We were clearly just off tonight. Can't be mad at all. Understandable loss. We battled all night. Thats what matters.

Oh well. Were still one game back of the Celtics.

We have our chance to beat them next week. Provided we can win the next 2 on the road.

0-9 from ONeale is insane. He clearly wasn't right tonight.

I quote myself here , I wrote this mid 3rd quarter, yet Vaughn was continuing playing O’Neale having fully healthy roster

This one is on Vaughn , first trash medal

Well we can't win them all, we had a nice streak and turn around of the season so I'm not mad at this one. The refs really helped the Bulls out in this one with all the bogus calls and O'neale couldn't make a shot. We should of put in Harris for him in that last few mins. And the Bulls been showing out when playing a contending team this season for some reason but then lose to a bad team it's weird. Oh well on to the next, let's not get in a losing streak now.

We've been winning in spite of him.

yea Simmons really needs to find his own shot preferably a floater like Bruce Brown had. All he does is that right hook shot like he's Kareem. IDK how you can be in the league this long and not develop a shot at least, it's kinda crazy when u think about it. But that's something for the offseason, i don't want him trying any crazy shots when we're trying to win games.

This team is still really good and everyone loses. Look at the Celtics or Bucks recent losses if you need further proof.

I do have increasing concerns about Simmons though. His offense is really still non-existent. He can't seem to make the type of shots he did in Philly.

And his FT shooting is beyond awful. If he is petrified of the FT line then he might be unplayable in the playoffs. We need him to figure it out.

Sad streak came to end…

KD was insane, he he was really balling

Except Seth all other underperformed…

Hope Warren is nothing too bad

O’Neail could not hit ocean… he was just awful
