This is another one we need to win.

The Bulls lost and the Heat are currently losing, which is huge.

Taking care of business, got back to .500 on the season, moved into the 7 spot. As long as we win out, we will stay there and avoid the Cavs until the conference finals :wink:

In all seriousness, I love Lance.

I think the question now is when does Lance replace Ellis in the starting lineup?

I dont know, I think Lance might be best off the bench with this squad...We've seen Ellis off the Bench and he struggled. I was also thinking about this and expecting a lineup change in the playoffs, but then I thought he might actually best off the bench, bringing in energy! And obviously he is going to finish games with the starters

I like Lance off the bench with this team, he can be more free-wheeling with the second group, fewer people to defer to. Offseason moves could change that, but right now I like the energy he brings off the bench.

If little dog can't play, I'd go with a short rotation. If we play Boston, expect smaller lineups.
