What could be more Bulls than to lose to Utah fully rested and then beat Denver on the second of a back-to-back coming off double OT.

66-9 bench advantage.

Also shows how badly Denver starters crushed our starters.

Interesting choice by Billy to bench Matas at the end for Okoro for what I assume defensive reasons.

wheeww... need this win badly. my opinion don't change about this Bulls team. They're going to compete every night and really have a chance to win. But it's the detail execution at the end that will determine what the record will look like come end of the season.

I really really want to see how this team looks like with healthy Zach Collins and more NBA minutes ready Essengue.

Fantastic effort by the team, especially the bench. We were short-handed, but extremely hard. Props to some unsung heroes like Jevon Carter, and Terry and Phillips who had some good defensive moments. Ayo and Stix were fantastic off the bench. Pat had some good moments.

Coldfish predicted we'd be roughly .500 at the end of the road trip. So we've just reverted to the mean. This is a .500 win team. We'll have great wins and terrible losses. As long as we see some growth, it's a success for the year.
