Horrible rotations. We have Vuc, Bradley & DJJ. Why are we running with JaVonte at C?

Blowouts are not as common anymore....Regardless of teams record talent is just getting better and better in the NBA these days. Plus the Rockets have been in a lot of games this season until they just turn it off and tank at end of games lol

I wonder if LaVine's hand is flaring up. He's missing shots and settling for jumpers for 2 games now.
Constantly underwhelmed by the Bulls.

RastaBull wrote:Wow. Ball is a tremendous steal of a signing. I was listening to Simmons podcast and guy on there was talking about Luka and building around him.

First thing I thought was if I was building around him, Lonzo would be the guard I want next to him (cover his d, 3P shooting, ability to push in transition where Luka otherwise handles the half court).

Second thought was ... Who the tf wouldn't want Lonzo in the starting lineup??? He's a bit of a unhicorn of point guards ... basically any team with a star scoring guard (PG or SG) would absolutely want Lonzo next to him because of that ... he excels leading transition but doesn't really want half court ball control responsibility; he destroys people on defense and will put all his energy in it; he covers anyone's defensive liabilities; he takes and makes A LOT of spot up 3s



It’s almost like he would have been a good fit for a team like New Orleans… oh wait.

Porter has a little D-Wade in his game

Got to take my son to his first Bulls game tonight. We better win, or we're gonna riot.

He's just gotta fix what's between the ears, and he'll be a problem.

These are one of those games that Bulls know for sure they can win. But if they let up, it will bite them in the arse. DON'T LET UP.

Just once though wouldn't it be amazing if your favourite team played like the evil villain team from like the Mighty Ducks.

You know those villain teams in sports movies who show no mercy ever to anybody...

It's going to be a while. No camp, new team, injury recovery time etc.

I dunno but we just went on a +10 run.

Gotta say Vuc’ s defense has been exceptionally brutal display in his return game.

Why do we expect that? On the road, it's not EASY to blow out ANY team in the NBA.

They seem to play down to competition. As long as they play hard against the top half of the league I’m not too concerned about them coasting against Houston.

True but they aren’t good enough yet to play down to competition. That being said they also can’t got and redline a whole.

Exactly. Houston playing one of their best games of the season so far.

Besides, not easy to blow out any team on the road. If it was our home game, possibly a blowout.

This teams interior defense is going to get exposed in the playoffs.

While Rockets made a couple of last second shots or this game would have been a 15pt game.
