Three point shooting by both teams was like what the Warriors did last nite in losing to a Pacers team missing all of its starters. And yet both games were interesting.

Athletic, skilled bigs are gonna kill us. I'm having trouble deciding between those two and Joker for my All-Star vote. All three? What the hell.

I thought that the name of Pistons' player Hamidou Diallo was familiar. An unarmed man named Amadou Diallo was shot to death by four NYC police officers about 20 years ago. Prolly a variant spelling of the same first name. The four were acquitted but the dead man's family still won a $3M settlement from NYC.

Either way. For all we know, his agent is planting those stories about NFL teams wanting him. All in good clean fun, right?

Laugh if you want, but when Jim Finks, the GM who owned 5% of the Bears stock was leaving the team and had to sell his stock, JR and EE offered to buy it and thus established a market value for the shares which the McCaskey's had to match and that is why they hate the Sox ownership to this day. It coulda been!!!

A mere 20 footer? Child's play, my friend.?

Plenty of time to drive into the lane and go body hunting and DDR chose to yo-yo the ball and put up an off-balance 28 footer. Out of gas or afraid of the big bodies in his way? Won and I feel like they lost. I need a drink now, not at midnight.

9-6 is far enough higher than the median to qualify as better than mediocre. But I get what you're saying.

Grain or two of truth among the chaff right there. Could it be that the players they have to work with is making all those head coaches look bad to mediocre?

Long arms. athleticism and PG skills vs. Coby's offense. Coby's offense looked pretty good last night, short arms and all. His future is second team scorer or trade bait. He and Ayo could play backcourt together because they have complementary skills. Depends how well Ilyasova fills the rebounding and defense void. Ilya's got a bag of tricks all right; not a dirty player in the cheap shot sense, but he'll occasionally grab a waistband so he can get a rebound. Good clean fun, right? Can't think of the name of that Euro thug who cheap shotted people all over the place a few years ago. Newly acquired McClung is an intriguing player. He's a twerp, but he can do a lotta the same things Trae and Curry do. Not as well, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know.

He can hit a shot, he gets you the ball and he can defend a man. He's also one of these guys with a clouded identity, like some Latin American baseball players, except he's a Turk? with a Russian last name, although he might be a Russian masquerading as a Turk. Whatever. Call him an international man of mystery. He was once involved in a trade for Serge Ibaka, who is what we really need right now.

His chance to cross the T's and dot the I's on a career that was denied him in Toronto. Show the world, DeMar.

If the Bulls had played last night I'd have watched them and missed the Curry game. See the bright side of COVID? Warriors against Knicks. the Knicks have some nice young talent. Despite that they're on an awful slump that has them diving in the standings, Coach Thibs fans.

RIP Roland Hemond
More than a grain or two of truth there, IMO. Think of the effect Hawk's dynamic? personality had on the all-knowing? feel guy JR as opposed to the laid-back Hemond. At least after his Peter Principle experience Hawk eventually dropped back to the broadcasting level where he was competent.

The Nets made just Luka look ordinary for the entire second half and stole a game on their own floor. That's the plan, keep him out of the paint and make him shoot the ball. Look at his percentages, not the highlights. Our old buddy JJ was a big part of it, too. All right, you know I like the guy. ? Bulls match up well with either team, might get deeper than we think into the playoffs.

Denver was sorta playing with half a squad themselves. Bulls were simply too athletic for them. Ayo's a dynamo.

DeMar evoking mid range memories of Chet the Jet as well as MJ. But Chet was more of a post up PF. If you're too young to remember, you missed some fun teams. I'm on Cloud Nine, keep it up Bullies.

Correctamundo. He had to go elsewhere to become what he became after wasted years here. Got us a nice draft choice which was promptly wasted.

If anyone watched NYK vs. BKN you saw a great NBA classic. Takeaways: Couple bigs doing pine duty that could help the Bulls out right now. Go get 'em. Lots of familiar faces on both sides. Our old JJ that Thibs misused and then doghoused and demoted before he was traded away with the winning free throws. Good for him, closing over the benched Blake Griffin. About those last free throws: They were up by 1 with 2.2 seconds to go after he made the first. Coach Nash should have told him to miss the second. NYK with no timeouts (Thibs hasn't changed there) would have to throw the rebound 70 feet to get a 2 point shot off and the clock would run out. Same for the three pointer, unlikely timewise but it beats you either way.

Vuc is having a subpar season, fer sure. And who wouldn't want an MVP center? Maybe our guy will get it together; long way to go yet. Coby? Even if he gets it together, who wants a player who has a good game every ten days?
