    it's two games dude. why you gotta needlessly instigate then act like your not trying to "touch a nerve." I don't know who the hell saying this team right now is good, but if they were... ok, I guess? Like what other response do you expect, honestly?

    It's early in the season, no Zion and it's a new system/coach. It's whatever.

    We don't even know what this team is. We know who a bunch of the individuals are. But the fit will be a work in progress. And I'm intrigued by that alone.

    im saying lol. Even the little bit of optimism here is thoroughly tinged with at least appropriate levels of disinterest and numbness

    Same, but I guess people want a win now team. Don't see why they get so pressed. Make judgments around Christmas time.

    Maybe he means me? I'm the closest to the resident optimist, but I'm a realist too. I have no delusions about our outlook. I said we're more capable of going 10-1 than 1-10. I don't see an awful team. An awful team will stay awful and only new, better players can fix that.

    We already have new, better players. Do they not get the chance to gel and become more?

    Trey was asleep at the wheel there. Careless turnover.

    The Bulls will be one of the best in the East. We can run with them if we don't turn the ball over. We'll be fine in the end but it will be a rough month or three to start.

    Buckle up.
    Good positive energy.

    But also, yo mama's fat.

    Someday we'll draft a hyper athletic and raw player...probably from UCLA, we'll stick it out and develop them and then one day they'll be pulling up from 30 feet out and burying Trae Young, Curry, or Lillard 3s too.

    Go read the board the last two days. A lot of "we were close most of the game" and "if we had Zion (or even Hart)", "fluke Korkmaz game"

    There is always a way to create some story about how a loss wouldn't be a loss if all these other things didn't happen. But they did. When (IF) we win a game, I bet nobody gets on here and says, "Well, we could have lost if these 3 things went different"

    Again, sorry you got all bothered by an innocent comment. I just was curious what the positive people would say tomorrow. Sue me.

    Well, after tonight, one of those will be far more likely than the other

    Goes to show how intensely I...disdain him. I give 2nd chances all the time. But Griffin? He can go somehwere.

    Like Murphy can go to the hole? THat kind athleticismwe gotta make this guy a bigger part of our offense sooner than later.

    Against Philly we had five points off the bench through three quarters; tonight it's up to 10. Improvement?

    Postscript: Chicago has 23.

    We valued the ball more. Another quarter of that. Make this game pretend close.

    We need either NAW or Graham off the bench. Literally no one off the bench is a scorer.

    Fade Pelicans till proven otherwise. Every game but one this season and preseason... They have trailed by 20 points. Huge red flag
    They continue their 20 point deficit trend. Just really bad basketball.
