If this is what we get from Lonzo... just sees every opening in transition and semi-transition
That 2021-22 Bulls team before all the injuries was fun. Not sure if stats back it though.

They were the #1 seed in the East through 60 games, i did just look that up.

Sucks that Hunter picked up a right knee contusion in this game, hopefully he's ready in 1 week.

Ball's best game by a mile. Merrill matters especially against a team like Pistons that's so aggressive on defense they have problems staying home. Mobley didn't look particularly comfortable with how physical the game was being played. Hopefully, that's a bridge he crosses this season.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

Very good Dean Wade game too. 15 points, doing stuff besides shooting 3s, and while he missed a couple bunnies at the rim, he got the basket after the rebound twice. A lot of that is how well Ball got the bench offense flowing.

Bad offensive night for Mobley-- most shots on the team, but eighth in points. 5 assists though. Great defensive night for him too.

And now the final E10 player has been waived.

I understand them not wanting to fill spot 15, for financial reasons but they should fill the final two-way spot, it has zero cap implications.
