White injured. Poverty telecast hasn't even mentioned.

Kinda frustrating but not an unfun game to watch. Bad read by Tatum though. Should know they’d blitz late

Doesn’t matter. Last year they were not jacking as many 3s. This team still lazy even after winning a ship.

That's even better.

I mean they could be the first lazy team to win a championship.

When you win a ship you grow out of that. I mean they’re still the most talented team in the nba bar none but you still go out there and defend.

That's the ideal and I agree with you on that.

But what I learned from this team the past few years, you just leave them alone because they will get it done in the end.

Still not much defense on the court.

Bulls did better job challenging shooters after our hot start from 3. Why lane is open to drive and post.

Defense is still the key to victory when 3s are being limited.

What happened to our 4th quarter pookie?

Between sam hauser bricking and Holiday, we can't pull away..

And Al is horrible near the rim on defense..

Like I said, the defense is no big deal because of the record.

That's not how it works.

Point is they're doing enough to be the top team in the league.

That's good enough for me.

But yeah, it's true the defense needs to be better.

JB trying to do too much again. Just give up the ball, man.

Well they won one ship. I believe the nuggets and bucks have won a ship as well. I will believe that when a team wins multiple championships.

JB goddamn such a negative today

There should never be a brown lineup without at least one of Jrue or white.

Jb is pissing me off!!

Every time JT is off the court we look like the bobcats

Yeah, guess that's your standard.

I just refuse to be miserable watching the Celtics this season.

All of us just wanted Banner 18.

Anything else is a bonus.

- So similar to the GS game, lots of Bulls playing and good production from the bench, super fast pace.
Horford too slow, Brown too stupid, Holiday too old and Hauser having his worst shooting year...

bucknersrevenge · Post #217 » by **bucknersrevenge** » Sat Nov 30, 2024 2:49 am

Just not enough pressure on the ball tonight. Actually like the change to Neemy. Might even switch Walsh in for Hauser while I'm at it.

This is one of this wake up call games like atlanta. Talent can only get you so far on paper.

I feel older just by watching.

Vucevic always has career nights against the Celtics but I can't believe we're being killed by Lakers legend Horton-Tucker.
