Trust miles to put the game into overtime, he just can’t let a bad affair end. Has to keep going back.

Now the Melo/Miller sitting out makes more sense. This allows them to run the offense through Bridges to get his value up for a possible trade before the upcoming trade deadline. Miles can be trade eligible next month.

Makes sense now.

I kind of like Miles running the offense more than Micic at times to be honest.

All that fight to force OT just to completely fall apart. Damn.

Like I said. Miles >> Micic at trying to facilitate. Make him do it more often.

I only just realised this was broadcast live in Australia, they were never going to win it.

They never do win when it’s on espn here

This streak will likely top the Pistons. Could be looking at 30-40 in a row.

A win (ownership’s nightmare) if the two pansies weren’t scared of the sport they make millions for not playing.

Coach did say we have to play the guys that embody the teams culture and attitude. Elite offensive superstars LaMelo and Brandon disappear with phantom injuries and the team barely misses a beat, that’s funny

Mark Williams 31 mins, we were terrible without him on the court.

Another 11 man rotation for Lee, dude just doesn't get it.
Way too many possessions late where we couldn't grab a rebound.

The 3 headed center thing has to stop, just pick 2 and play 2. Moussa and Nick have been both terrible playing this half a back up role since we started it.

Mark gives me legit excitement. He was excellent in every facet. Passing had a couple floaters finishing. Him going one on one against White was damn near disastrous but that’s alright.

Zero chance either of them plays one second the last 30-40 games of the season, but that’s fine. Not gonna win with or without them, so let them focus on their IG posts.

Playing us must really be the best... no matter how bad you play you will be in the game.
The Bulls shot 37.5%/30.0%/70.4% and won the game.

Does feel intentional. Not to boost his trade value but to give interested teams a clear look at Miles as a scoring option.

He did put up near a triple-double. But teams know they're not getting spacing from him.

Someone is looking at him and Hornets like the players being discussed. Just a hunch. Have no proof.

Showcasing him like this given the timing is certainly interesting.
It has been written...
