Evan gonna find out real quick that the media and fans over in Boston are nowhere near as tame as they are in Orlando.

He needs to get acclimated to Brad Stevens and his new teammates no doubt but I'm intrigued to see if he can adjust having a reduced role offensively.

After saying all those great things about Orlando, I feel bad that he is getting booed.

I was just about to say the same thing. Vuc and Evan have gone to the worse possible places if they want positive press. If they don't play well the fans and media of both respective cities will let them know.

I hate the Bulls, they made adjustments After the first game hahaha. Lauri is coming off the bench and Vuc is now playing better. Killing the tank for the magic, lol

we dont want them to suck too much cuz they might defy thhe lotto odds and get a top4 pick yet at the same time not win too much cuz it migbt lead into the 16-20 range.

I'm jealous they have a coach not a afraid to tinker with lineups to see what works best.

We'll continue to see Birch start.

I'm still confused. Did people not expect this team to figure it out offensively? I thought it was pretty clear they would. The problem, as I've been saying, is going to be on the defensive side. I just don't see them figuring it out either with the personnel they have. Another 60 point half.

Even after the Vuc trade, I still think that the Bulls are still too dysfunctional to figure out anything yet. Outside of Vuc and LaVine they really don't have much on the offensive end. And even though all stars, I really don't have much faith with Vuc or LaVine as my primary go to players. This trade was truly risky for the Bulls.

Clippers without George dismantled Bucks, starters in particular, that was impressive.


btw some props to Westbrook, guy dished out 21 assist :clap:

Looks like Lavine re-aggravated an ankle injury and is set to miss time. Hopefully they miss the playoffs but still win some games. I’d like that pick to stay in the 7-9 range.
