Thibs on mindset heading into tonight's game: "We're not changing. So we got our normal rotation we're going to play. We're playing to win."

Take Thibs' words with a grain of salt: Best outcome for Bulls is a loss, combined with Nets loss and Wizards win. Sets up 4/5 with Wiz.

This is a mindset game. Buckle down--the real season is upon us.
