Probably be undefeated if they just let the man shoot from distance all the time.

I thought we were f*cked when Vuc caught the ball in the deep deep post with Mikal on him. What a block, one of the plays of the season, as good as any clutch bucket.

Agree except how the hell did bridges end up on vouch w no big men in site to help? Amazing play. I think vouch rushed it a little

And did not foul him!!!

Credit Chicago that ran an effective play, they screened to get Vouch by also forcing knicks to guard the perimeter. They other 4 spread out. Double vouch someone is left open. Then we complain we did not guard the perimeter. Its not like knicks control everything, this is the NBA and the Bulls are not some god awful doormat record losing team with an interim coach over his head. Billy Donovan is HOF caliber coach.
Sometimes a team gets another's number. They were 2-0 vs knicks thus far this season.
Hornets went into LA with a chip on its shoulder and beat the Lakers who have two HOF players in Lebron and Doncic!
Shit happens.


still don't get why he was not covered by a big. Any bucket wins, so no suprise people would roll to the basket

A win is a win! No complaints beating a team with us down 2 starters. Kudos to Deuce and Precious for stepping up! Huge block and timely clutch shots by Bridges too. And weird game by KAT! Couldn't hit anything in that ugly first half but had a crazy 3rd quarter where he couldn't miss. And the Captain with another clutch basket.

Tonight is the test.

Shot blocking is one of my favorite stats. As a guard, I relish thoughs types of blocks on bigs. Love it. Dude has some long freaking arms.

My biggest issue with this game and the Hawks game is we had insurmountable leads in the final minute that we somehow still managed to blow with mistakes and terrible execution. Lets clean that up man.
