    Imagine if this was a 4 game win streak instead of this bs

  2. LarrcasM

    Takeaways from tonight’s game:

    * Deebo didn’t have a great offensive night, but he wasn’t a massive liability and also rebounded/defended well. Bad shooting nights happen and he’s been very good in the last 2 weeks. With that being said, he did take over in the 4th and gave us a pretty big lead (which we kinda needed with how poorly we took care of the ball in the last 2 minutes).
    * Zach also had a pretty mediocre shooting night. He was present on defense and got some blocks in there as well. I’m just happy that in a game where both Deebo and Zach weren’t shooting great, they weren’t liabilities. It’s a great sign for this team.
    * Vucevic had an efficient offensive night and was definitely a big reason this game went our way. 21/13/3/0/1 is solid as hell
    * Pat was very good tonight. He battled with KD on defense and got some steals in there. He was very good on offense even after he had a not great turnover early on in the game, which is nice to see in terms of mental toughness. 22/7/2/2 on 75/75/100 splits is a great night. He was due for a real good one.
    * Ayo was a big factor on both sides of the floor. Our young players stepping up carried us through the first 3 quarters of this game. Both Ayo and Pat were very good on both sides of the floor tonight.
    * Bench was solid with Dragic and Coby both having solid ass games. DJJ wasn’t particularly great, but it wasn’t nearly as rough as last game. Still too many fouls, but at least there was a steal and a block to show for it.
    * This is hot Nets team and pulling out the win after two heartbreakers is big for the team. Proud they took this one home even with Demar and Zach not having stellar nights.
    * We won the rebound battle pretty hard tonight and I think that says a lot. When this team is getting boards, we’re a way bigger problem to deal with. Outrebounded the Nets 46-34 and grabbed 6 offensive boards to their 5. When we’re getting killed on rebounding, the disadvantage we put ourselves at is hard to deal with.

    MVP’s for tonight: Patrick Williams and Nikola Vucevic

  3. Nah why did Zach have to do Ayo dirty on that last possession LOOOOL

  4. SecondCityMeatball

    This team drives me up a fucking wall.

  5. Somebody said we’re worse than teams that were better than and better than teams that we’re worse than 💀💀

  6. NBAKefka

    GIVE US THE 8 SEED SO WE CAN UNDERDOG OUR WAY TO THE FINALS

  7. fawfulsgalaxy

    this team plays well. not always, but anyone who says we’re a bad team doesn’t watch. there’s a good squad here in the windy city

  8. ThisIsTheOneBoys

    fuck the refs fuck donovan mitchell ez W

  9. laal-doodh

    Can we just keep playing the Bucks, Nets, and Celtics

  10. mousefrog32

    Might go to the finals if we make the playoffs. The problem is we have to play the powerhouse Rockets, Thunder, Wizards and Hornets to get there

  11. Just don’t get this team. Wipes the floor with the top dogs but loses from scrubs. If we adjust we can handle shit

  12. LulJerbear

    This is the framework for success. Keep Ayo and Pat involved instead of continuously pursuing contested jumpers from Lavine and Demar all the time

  13. Helwinter

    Wildly infuriating as a team. Are we good? Are we bad? Can we defend? Can we not? Are we overly reliant on DD and Zach, or are we not? Well over 100 second chance points in the last 5 games – usually well over 20 per game – then less than 10 tonight.

    6-1 against top 3 teams and yet get smacked by Houston.

    It’d be nice to see this kind of performance more often.

  14. SmokimNoah

    Good team win, everyone contributed no matter what the box score says. That’s how it should be

    We can compete with ANYONE

  15. If we get over 20 from Patrick Williams and17 from Ayo, we are winning more than not!

  16. bertymcdirty

    idgaf what you mofos think, i’m happy we have coby

  17. Jammer521

    We been playing good the last 10 games, the only legit bad games were Minnesota, and the Rockets, we should have won both Cavs games IMO, that would have made us 8-2 over the last 10 games, the team is really showing resilience after demoralizing loses to the Cavs on bullshit officiating, to come back and knock off the nets

  18. Treyred23

    I need to know, every starter out scored Zach.

    Probably first time since he has been a Bull.

    Pat with his first 20+ pt game of the season

  19. Altruistic-Leader-81

    No one was hurt on Brooklyn, no B2B, hotter than shit .. what are we??

  20. Cipher32

    The way we started with trying to get Pat and Vuč going with easy buckets is how we have to play every night. Iso ball doesn’t seem so bad then being used in timely spots

  21. LilScottWeb

    While they looked good today, the refs definitely favored us after raw dogging us TWICE in a row. I can only imagine how Philly is about to be reffed with that soft 280LB piece of flopping trash Embiid is about to go.
