It was their play of the game. They showed it multiple times after it ended and were raving about it.

5-21... he wasn't trying to freeze Jalen out. Cole is just about make Cole a star from what I'm seeing. He absolutely wants to win but he wants to do it on his terms.

Even if Suggs becomes a Lowry/Jrue type of player I am ecstatic. You can't question his energy and toughness.

Please post a video of whatever Jalen said

Can we just enjoy the win without any theories though? lol.. we sure know how to put a damper on wins.

Cole definitely has tunnel vision at times though. Not as bad as Ross.. and at least he hit clutch FTs and rebounded and assisted pretty well.

Fun game to watch. Suggs needs to build off this game although he was walking gingerly on his ankle.
Franz continues to Impress. Just a smart player on both sides of the ball.

He had the wherewithal for a disclaimer... then still dropped that sweet f-bomb. I love this team, win or lose.

Cole had twice as many shots as anyone else on the team. While shooting under 25%. This is the problem with giving that type of player too much of a leash but I'll drop it there. He rebounded well and made a few good reads tonight.

Does cole make that same exact pass to Wendell for the dunk? Or pull up from 3? Lol idk

He looked him off for three possessions until Suggs got the steal and tossed the alley OOP.

Franz is like an upgraded version of Hedo. More athletic and much better defender. That was a nasty throwdown.

I think what you're seeing with guys like Wagner, Barnes, and Mobley is how limited they were by the lack of spacing in college. I mean Wagner played SG last year and just had zero room to operate once their starting point guard went down.

Those 3 are looking like the cream of this class right now, && I'm just thankful we had the chance to get Wagner at 8. I mean think about it, we actually turned Vuc into WCJ, Franz Wagner, and another first-round pick.

Vuc isn't even Chicago's 3rd best player at the moment. That's an all-time trade for this franchise if Wagner/WCJ stay on this trajectory.

Franz and Suggs want to win at all cost, both tough and like contact and put the work in on the defense.

So.. I'm impressed with RJ's willingness to not be selfish and go hunting for his shot but 0-1 in 14 minutes, huh?

Only 12 turnovers for the game. That's great for us!

Suggs made plays on D and those times he kept his dribble alive in the paint were nice.

Franz is just different. Seems a confident young man. We let him dribble some at the top now, not just attack closeouts, which is nice. Last game he defended Trea Young. He's sort of our Swiss Army Knife.

Unfortunately, Wendell had some problems with keeping Robinson off the offensive glass but Bamba seemed to match their bigs pretty well.

Okeke is getting better and better each game. Just 1 centimetre at a time for Chuma.
