Jimmy Butler 2, Paul George 0.

Pretty sure Geroge gets a point for the game in Indy.

I've talked quite a bit with my son about the Warriors' chance of breaking the Bulls 72 wins record. All it takes is an injury here an injury there and poof! There goes the chance. There's still the chance of course. But, as the season wears on that likelihood is bound to get slimmer and slimmer.

Well they're at 2 losses by the end of December. Other way to look at this?

 

They have to lose less than 2 games per month. For rest of the season.

The Eastern Conference is actually looking pretty good right now, the best it's been in years.

 

Orlando's actually had the best record in the East since they made the lineup change of moving Oladipo as a 6th man, think they've gone 14-5 from that point onwards.

 

I'd assume this season all of the East Teams who make the playoffs should be above .500 for a change....

It's deeper than it has been in years but there's still no real threat to Cleveland which makes it all meh.

Shockingly, the East has been much better than the West.

As of like 2 days ago the conferences had a head to head record that was even at ~85-85. While thats a huge change from last year, it wasn't "the East Much Better".

The NBA agrees with Frank Vogel -- Paul George was fouled on final play by Jimmy Butler last night, league says in L2M report.

WHERE?!

NBA released L2M report and on final play deems: "Butler (CHI) makes contact with George's (IND) arm during his shot attempt."

So the NBA has deemed the no-call that determined end of the #Pacers-Bulls game as “INCORRECT NON-CALL"

According to NBA report, the final play involving Butler against George was the only “incorrect” call of the final two minutes of game.

Oh well

Exactly

Offense is 1000 times better without Rose clogging it up. I know it's the Knicks, but still.

He stepped out of bounds before he got set?

The 72-10 Bulls were 39-3 at the end of January '96.

 

The Warriors are 31-2 as of right now and have won some really tight games recently that could've gone either way.

 

Looking at how impressive it is to win the way GSW has been racking up the Ws makes you appreciate the dominance of those Bulls.

 

I think the Warriors will get close but ultimately fall short of that Bulls record as the season drags on and some of those tight wins become losses...

 

Oh and Steve Kerr might as well take the year off

This is the first bulls game I've seen in weeks. Portis looks great. His defense is rough one on one but his effort is insane. Mirotic on the other hand

Rose will be undergoing an MRI on his knee.

Jimmy Butler has set a Bulls' franchise record with 40 points in the 2nd half.

Jimmy comes up huge. Nice win and comeback on the road. Made me nervous at the end with those free throws.

Ok, I've been a Bulls fan since day 1 and that has to rank as one of the best games ever. Sure glad I watched!

Jimmy Butler is just plain f***ing awesome.

Broke MJ's record for points in a half
