I may be more scared of Milwaukee currently, but it's good to see the Bulls competing with Brooklyn. A couple things that will help the Bulls cause in a playoff series, Harden not being superstar Harden, and Demar's game being quite well suited for a slower pace game.

Bulls still need to improve on breaking the zone defenses brought out to essentially neutralize Demar's midrange game, rebounding in general (but they're a small team as it stands so that may just be what it is), and it does remain to be seen if Demar can indeed get it done in the playoffs.

Things are certainly looking up though, this team can make some noise if they play up to potential.

I'm most curious to see how they handle Cleveland's jumbo lineup on Wednesday.

DeMar wins EC Player of the Week.

And is now in the Covid protocol

 

[clonetrooper264]

Totally guessing our starting lineup today, take all that with a grain of salt

 

[Zion]

I haven't paid attention to the Denver Nuggets since they had Melo and J.R. smith

You're missing out. Fun team.

 

[Raskolnikov]

Fucking hell...kinda wish the whole team could get covid at once instead of star players going out for 10 days one at a time.

I guess it gives us a chance to look real close at how are depth performs in large rolls.

How many wins are we on pace for?

 

[Raskolnikov]

82 x .666 =54.6

 

[CHIBEAR]

We need a ZO game today

 

[DirtyDutchDiggler]

I have a good feeling about this game. Though I'm nervous.

 

[CHIBEAR]

Some of this nonsense is on Donovan because both teams are over the limit with like 6 minutes to go and hes basically letting them just chuck up shots instead of imploring them to drive every chance they get.

 

[knoxville7]

DJJ!

 

[knoxville7]

Ayo!!

 

[Zion]

Am I gonna have to buy an Ayo Dosunmu jersey?

 

[knoxville7]

It sure is interesting how the people that post on here constantly during games are the ones that seem to recognize certain things about this team

 

[Raskolnikov]

How high does Ayo go in a re-draft?

Underwoods offensive system is awful but he's a damn good recruiter.

What Ayo was able to do in Big 10 as a lead dog basically forced to drive the ball late in clock's against physical zone defenses keying on him prepared him for NBA iso's imo.

 

[knoxville7]

ZL absolutely taking over late in the 3rd quarter

 

[zack54attack]

LaVine!
