Back-to-Back game. We haven't won one of those in a while.

trap game....after a good win against the pacers and dominating the raptors it just would not be our style this year to beat a cold pistons team...we got two solid games from kirk and two good games from MDJ...those guys are due to combine for 6 points...we need brooks to have a lights out game to win IMO....

FML! We need this win, we have played too poorly in back to back games.

Pau should not play tonight...the last games he wasn´t playing with energy, he looks too tired. Now, with Noah, Niko and Taj recovered, we can give him some rest, looking forward to PO, even vs Hornets, he should rest.
When this account gets more "And1"s than posts written ...then my life will be complete. And maybe it will be the right time to hang it up. (Achieved on 2017-2018 season)...but still here.

Maybe....just maybe we have a shot at 2 seed. I think we'll win this one. Guys are looking more confident out there, they smell the playoffs getting closer. With Butler and Rose almost back, we might just be running on full cylinders by playoff time......will be an amazing sight to see.

The pistons are rested while chicago is in the second night of a B2B. But honestly if I was detroit I'd be tanking the crap outta the rest of the season.

Hope the bulls win.

After Rose broke both his knees, I gave up on the hope that we'd make it to the NBA Finals again. It will probably be decades before we see another championship. Hello Treadmill, here we come.

It's the shoes!

Or you play him but 24 minutes like Thibs did last night. I do want 1-2 recovery games for Pau before the season ends but we also need to build chemistry as well.

I want to see the same energy tonight. Hoping Butler is back by Monday.

Like I said before I would be happy with us till Taj/Butler/Rose comeback we play 0.500 basketball. And currently we are doing exactly this (5-5) in last 10 games. I dont agree with @WIN about we have a shot at 2 seed. It's not realistic. I dont know we can go on run without our All-Star back-court, not unless you are riding your players into ground right before the playoff. Neither I dont want that. Noah and Gasol should till playoff start getting some rest games. Specially Pau. I am just glad Noah is on restriction minutes, and Pau yesterday did get some more rest than usual.

But we might run on full cylinders by playoff time. Probably a week or maybe two in best case.

Win against Pistons would be good, just to stay ahead of Raptors. But again loss wont do too much damage either. Playoffs are still more important than regular season games and seeding. And I want this team fresh and healthy.

Return to Chicago Bulls
