So many hero ball ISO shots. Or just plaint missed good shots. And putbacks - these being weak are so frustrating.


You've got two guys going ISO who in all honesty have no business doing it as much as they are. There are like 2-3 players i'd be fine with going ISO in bulk.

Kawhi
KD
Kyrie

Demar and Lavne need to be smarter.

The Bulls shotmaking to close this game was a sight to behold. It’s a shame that Lonzo is gone for the season, would’ve been a competitive matchup if both teams were healthy.

The thing about this is that the Bulls, Demar, and Lavine can't play worse than this. That means they have a shot.

This game pretty much just says, if the bulls can be elite defensively they’re a force to be reckoned with.

Remember how enraged Bulls fans were when we all asked if we could wait til the playoffs to anoint Derozan as the next MJ?

6-25, 18 pts, 0-2 from three

I like the Bulls. I like Derozan. I want them to do well. But you mf'ers were going in on us and this is exactly what we were talking about.

Vucevic has to be able to make those open 3s from the pick-and-pop. He missed too many today.

Until you realize Middleton also was trash. Jrue wasn’t any better either

He is not a good in game decision maker. He can’t think on the fly

dude would have been out of job if KD didn't have foot on line lol..he makes so many dumb decisions. Giannis makes up for so much stupidity from Bud at times

DeRozan folding in the playoffs once again. Some things just don't change
