GAME NOTES
​

• Chauncey Billups is 1-4 vs the Bulls and coach Billy Donovan
• The Bulls defeated the Blazers 104-96 on 1/28 in Portland
• The Blazers still owe the Bulls a 1st rnd pick for the Larry Nance Jr trade. The Bulls will probably never see it

Bullseye

 

[wizenheimer]

dangerous game for Portland's lottery chances. The Bulls are a better team . A lot obut they are only .500 at home and they often have really bad nights. Several paths for the Blazers to grab a damaging win

 

[THE HCP]

It’s snowing here today.

 

[Whyachi]

the last time Blazers beat the Bulls, newly acquired Larry Nance Jr. piled up 16/9/3/3 off Portland's bench. (Nov. 2021)

Blazer fans were gleeful. excited, and hopeful Olshey had built another contending playoff team.

Unfortunately... the Cylons attacked the fleet, and the surviving Blazer fans are huddled inside Battlestar Galactica. Wandering the galaxy in search of the best ping pong balls to rebuild their civilization.

 

[Whyachi]

Caruso was questionable, but he's ready to go. Coby White needs rest, he messed up his hip.

 

[Whyachi]

Camara 2 quick fouls. That's some b.s.
refs you suck

 

[Whyachi]

Ant splat

 

[B-Roy]

Dame is in the building apparently??

 

[illmatic99]

Dame

 

[B-Roy]

 

[Whyachi]

Carter 16 yr vet, shanks a 26 footer
lol

Chicago down a couple baskets, they need a timeout.

 

[illmatic99]

 

[Whyachi]

Bulls are in trouble, here comes Banton

 

[Whyachi]

Murray should have caught that. The pass only missed by 14 feet

 

[Cugel]

Ayton is money.

 

[Whyachi]

Ayton & Ant are $money$

 

[Whyachi]

Ayton is money.

tie goes to Cugel

 

[Cugel]

I think Ant has played exceptionally well as of late too.

 

[Whyachi]

Bulls play advanced ISO offense "dribble and pass and somebody shoot it when the clock runs low."

 

[Whyachi]

Banton playing fearless

 

[illmatic99]

Scoot being awful again.

What happened at all star break?

 

[Whyachi]

Drummond just gave Thybulle a big hug

 

[Whyachi]

Scoot being awful again.

What happened at all star break?

we were told to blame the coaches on G-League Ignite

 

[Whyachi]

Jabari forgot to guard somebody, then Drummond dunked it

 

[TYDame]

Duop scared of Drummond? Why do you need to wrap him up, he’s garbage c’mon

 

[Whyachi]

Duop slapped a half-nelson on Andre

 

[B-Roy]

Scoot looks like a lost puppy. Rupert is really bad.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

This is physically painful to watch

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Scoot looks like a lost puppy. Rupert is really bad.

Scoot looks as bad as at the beginning of the season. He looks like he's playing with zero confidence.
