Caleb is nowhere as good as Dick lol

The knock on Dick is that he isn't a good defender

The Bulls will probably win tonight. They've had 3 days off and they're playing at home.

if you believe his pluses,Dick is almost a no brainer at 8-11 range.

Is Dick that much better than Sensabaugh?

We need Dick.

Bulls are probably going to lose.

I like Hendricks more than Dick.

Wow, Derozan with a 4-point play to send it to OT

The Bulls have 3 b2bs in their final 14 games.

I personally do not care where Bulls pick lands. As long as we have Bull's pick this year, I am happy

It’s better for us to have it as high as possible for trade purposes. If we stay at #5 then #8 might be enough to move into the top 3. #10-#14 might not be enough of a difference maker to make that happen though.

But there is also the possibility of losing Bulls Pick once they get into Top 4

Good point, and I appreciate your inclination for more of a safe and sure fire option. I’ll take the gamble of better positioning and higher odds of it transferring back to the Bulls over the safe option of a late lottery pick, but I prefer high risk high reward.

You think with Bulls pick and our pick high enough will make it possible to trade to Top 3 so we can have a chance at Brandon Miller or Scoot?

To me, I do not think Thompson Twins will move the needle for us

He was non-existent both times this season against my Longhorns.
If you can't step up against your toughest competition and make some plays...

It’s all going to depend on who’s picking in the top 3, who’s available to them and who they want.

a) this is when the review is fun and adds to the game.

b) I hate that the NBA routinely calls fouls on threes after the ball is released. But here, to foul on the elbow as the shot is going up, how does DeRozan stay focused to make the three. WOW!

c) Ice cold FT to tie the game.

d) Even icier cold shot by Fox. Dude has no fear.

What a fun ending to a game.

AND: Chicago absorbed another loss and is currently ONLY 1/2 up on the Pacers to slide even further
