If there are grammar errors I apologize. Stayed up till 2:30 AM to finish this and I was struggling to keep my eyes open.
Writing about a loss is never fun — but I thought there were some good takeaways from the game to dive into.

I was surprised by the lack of any TJ minutes as well. Letting a team like CHI hang around is just too dangerous when Lavine can erupt at any time.
Too many turnovers and missed 3s to win this one, and this will likely be how this team loses winable games this season.
First thought… Bally sucks!
My thoughts are it’s one outta 82 and any team can get caught on any night we move
I just cannot get fully behind this era of “live by the three, die by the three.” We have to may players who can drive or cut and yet we just stood around jacking up threes. Hell I think we airballed 2-3 of them.
How hard is it to move the game in 10-ft when the threes are not dropping by the fourth quarter? Get to the basket, get some fouls, and play tough basketball.
That also goes on the other end. Our interior defensive is non-existent. So many easy buckets at the rim for the Bulls last night. Had the same problem with the Cavs. Jokic is going to put up 80 against us at this rate.
