Bulls vs Hornets @ UC GT: 7pm

[Michael Jackson]

LaVar in town yesterday to promote this game he calls-

"The Face Off"

I like "The Ball Bowl" more

Or maybe the both get ejected and it is remembered as the Balls Out game. I mean this one could go one for days and days.

LaVar in town yesterday to promote this game he calls-

"The Face Off"

....drew a line down the street — with wait times exceeding an hour to meet the father of the Bulls point guard.

Ball is trying to bring that family connectivity to the Bulls. He said he met with the team’s executive vice president of basketball operations and lobbied him to “get all three of” his sons: Lonzo, LiAngelo and LaMelo.

He better be sitting courtside-

I told my kid a few years ago when the LaVarr hate was strong - I said the guy may be a bit over the top - but he is a positive male role model for his sons and his hard work is paying off. Like I remember Kap trying to railroad him on a radio interview. Total Fail on Kap. LaVarr is genuine hard working guy doing it his way and dong a pretty good job of it.

This should be more exciting than Seahawks vs the WFT

I feel like LaMelo has a HUGE game. I haven't seen him a lot so this is just a guess.....

For as silly as LaVar was at times and was easy to hate, he knew when to layoff. He knew the sports business and knew it was better to market than do nothing. Over the top, sure… but it worked. Long term it is working although it was a clown show out of the gates.

Feels good to be a desired destination. Lavar hyping up the Bulls? I'm all for it

Big Baller Bulls!

Wow this guy already started his bs. Why would AK even meet with him? If he actually listens to Lavar and signs other son who isn’t NBA material then I will lose respect for AK. Since when does Lavar Ball call the shots and have requests for the Bulls? Really hope AK just told him to fk off.

Nope I hope he didn't because if LiAngelo is the cost for LeMelo it would be very smart of AK to eat the cost!

[imagge]

Lavine LeMelo, Lonzo Caruso is the best guard rotation in the league not to mention LeMelo is legit SF size!

Yeah, we can easily cut Matt Thomas to sign LiAngelo, or Dotson/Cook if you wanna keep him as a two-way (tho he hasn't been too fond of that).

Also, Lavar is definitely hyping Chicago because it's a big market. He was silent the last couple years when Zo got traded to New Orleans. LaMelo got drafted to Charlotte but that's also a small market, plus it's probably much harder to get a meeting with MJ than AKME.

If Bulls continue to be a good team this season, I expect to see/hear more from Lavar. This will be like 2017 again. It's the cost of doing business.

Hornet have no center. I know Vuc has been off, but could be a great opportunity for him to put a big game together and hopefully find his groove.

Might be the only team smaller than ours

It's aggression with Vuc, and he may be stepping on DDR's toes since they score in the same areas

[BullChit]

Lol iv always likes LeVar... Harmless clown show at times but the proof is in the pudding that he has been there and done amazing things with his boys.

If LaVar wants to be a bigger and louder Benny The Bull I'm all for it... Especially if it eventually lands us LaMelo

Dude relax

If Zach is out, then it definitely gets harder to pull out a win. Hopefully they can bounce back from a terrible week.

Opens up the door for Vuc to bounce back and get back on track though...Which I hope happens

If it has to happen, this isn't the worst game for it. Vuc has an advantage this game and if he is getting fed, all the better. If ZL is out both Ball and AC will make life tough for his brother and Scary Terry.

The Hornets have a potent offense, top 3 in many offensive factors such as points per game, 3PM, 3P%, APG, points in the paint, and pace. They also play the passing lane a lot, leading to steals and fast break points.

They're #6 in terms of offensive ratings but also in the bottom 6 defensively resulting in a mostly neutral NETRTG (15th). They have 5 guys averaging in double figures in points, so they have a lot of different offensive options that can hurt you.

They have 7 guys on their roster who are shooting 3s better than 37%. Rozier and Bridges are having a rough start shooting the ball but they do put up a lot of them and can get really, really hot if left open. Bridges is having a career year and can hurt you in a lot of ways.

We wanna defend the 3pt line and not be careless with the ball. Their guards are kinda like ours, with multiple of them averaging at least 1 steal per game. If we turn the ball over like we did vs Miami AND give up open 3s, it's gonna be a long night.

Haven't watched Charlotte but a few minutes this year outside of highlights. Do they play any Zone?

Admin willing I’d like to make the GT today .
We’ve had a losing week so It would be nice to right the ship . Gonna put together a fairly reasonable game plan to the game. Lately my GTs seem to have a clarifying effect on the team . The end effect being seeing the team with no makeup on . In my opinion this is practically the 1. The one I want to bring home to my parents hopefully papa Donovan don’t kick me out the door.

The hornets: under the radar they lost to the rockets their last game . Takes some of the salt off our rockets loss.

Vuc > Pj Brown
Green < Bridges
Derozan > Hayward

1. Lonzo < Lamelo
2. LaVine > Rozier

Here the bulls win 3 out of 5 positions . If hornets flip flop their guards shouldnt hurt us . Lonzo could have an outside shot at outmatching Rozier straight up but I can’t give him that on paper given rozier scored 31 his last game .

——————-
1st half minute rotation :

Vuc-18 Bradley-6
Green-12 DJJ -12
Derozan-18 Brown -6

1. Lonzo -18 Cobe-6
2. Zach -18 Caruso -6



Number 1 option is Zach.
We have a big 3 with an elite pointguard . This is a team we should beat . Browns minutes can be supplemented by Green or DJj. But I’m comfortable with Brown in limited minutes the kid can play.
At half time I will post my 2nd half rotation that I feel should be pretty similar to the 1st half .

Guys I’m playing fantasy basketball , I just watched 3 games yesterday . Am not coming in here like an oblivious rookie .

I would hope so seeing as Brown is 52 years old and has been retired a few years now...
