The red on the court just emphasizes the brutal nature of Jalen's heinous crime against Caruso's ankles.

I dont like the b-b vs the same team at their home. Its going to be much harder tonight
GustavBahler @ 12/16/2022 10:51 AM
Hopefully Randle wont play heroball tonite. The last few minutes of the game, Brunson was only passing to Randle, who had trailed off at that point. Brunson's scoring was enough to win the game.

But if the game is close, I hope JB looks to the other players on the court, as well. Randle hasnt shown a consistent ability to close out games. "Ra,Ra,Ra" wont change that. Only Randle can.

Looks like we dodged a bullet with Lonzo. I wanted the Knicks to sign him.

I love it cause it'll really speak to how mentally tough the Knicks can get.

How many free throws does Derozan get tonight? 85?

Tough, but I like it. Has a kind of playoff feel to it. Just wish we had our own home/home some point to balance.

oh wow, I just assumed each team just about had the same amount of these. Wonder if they'll tweak schedules so that this evens out

agree... another 30/15/7 type effort from Jules would be a disaster. Man no matter what folks "find a way"

THIS... Donovan is like Thibs. He's a good coach. They will be ready and I expect it to be tougher from the start. However I also expect our size, defense and depth to wear them down and expect things to eventually open up.

I dont see them able to match our physical nature. Will take a terrible shooting night or great one from them to swing it in favor of Bulls

martin @ 12/16/2022 12:01 PM
If Knicks win this game, Thibs gets extended for sure.

its only year 3! Are we talking a lifetime position thing?

I admit I would have been content if we got a split in this mini series. Beating any team back to back in their house is super tough so I won't be mad if we drop this one.

That's not the holiday spirit we are looking for man! Must establish dominance over Chicago!

Cant get stoked about our best scoring option also being a liability in crunch time. If we can get a good return, this would be the time to trade Randle.

I was a pretty big proponent of Lonzo too. Shocked when he signed so quickly into FA.

Yep. The Bulls have to forget about that overtime trouncing and focus on tonight if they hope to have a chance.
