One of mine is [young JR Smith dropping 43 on us off the bench](https://youtu.be/MQ2t38qp0vA). I had just started watching the nba a lot more that year and i was like who the fuck is this JR Smith guy raining all these deep 3’s and taking over in the 4th on a team with Melo and AI no less. And this was before deep 3’s were common you would rarely see one in a game let alone one guy heat checking from that range all game
Another one is Andris Biendris on the warriors had like 7 blocks against us swatting everything. But bricking every free throw something like 0-8 on the game
Does anyone else remember these games what are yours?

The wound is still fresh but you have to mention Donovan Mitchell’s 71 pt performance against us. A lot of BS free throws, but still
Honestly, it feels like role players have their career games against us. We can semi shut down the star, but that 7th man is about to drop 24, 7, and 6.
I remember RJ Barrett absolutely TORCHING us one night. I think he had 43 or 44 points and didn’t seem like he could miss. If I remember correctly, we had a crazy comeback to win the game.
Jerry Stackhouse setting the UC scoring record while the Chicago fans cheered him on still angers me.
Bulls vs Magic 2017. Elfrid Payton went for 22-14-14 and looked like an all star PG. Paul Zipser and Jerian Grant started that game 🤢
I also still talk about this jr smith performance. And also 7 years later when he played on the cavs and hit the [half court buzzer beater](https://youtu.be/NS0Peb9vxkA) at the end half, which is still one of the most athletic shots I’ve ever seen. It was just absolutely no doubt from 40. Dude hates the bulls
A few years back, Bulls and Pistons battled in an early season game, and Jerami Grant completely took over the game for Detroit. Luckily Zach was able to match him, but I think Grant scored 40+ points and provided an unforgettable performance.
This post makes me sad and kinda like WTF
I was in Portland for CJ’s 50 in three quarters. Sucked to be down, especially sitting there in the losing teams jersey, but holy damn Rose Garden was electric.
