    They'll be a fun watch. No real threat to any of the top 3-4 teams in a series but frisky and awkward to play against.

    Keep in mind they haven't beat quality teams.

    Hawks, Magic, Timberwolves, Kings. All 50-50 or worse.

    They did beat Pistons who are 3-2 who just got over 50-50 with their last win.

    Let's temper expectations until they face a solid team.

    That said, it is impressive given their no-name roster.

    They played the Timberwolves in the preseason. Yes the Kings are bad but the Hawks, Magic, Pistons, and Knicks are decent to good teams. They might not all be playing that way at the moment but those are probably 4 of the 7 best teams in the East at the end of the day.

    Doesn't mean much this early obviously but I wouldn't necessarily write it off as a weak schedule.

    That's fair, but the Bulls are playing great team ball. They have a decent bench, and they're showing great defense and ball movement. And their ball movement is so effective that they're exploiting every mistake their opponents make and sharing the scoring load.

    I've been saying it for years.....Zach Lavine was dead weight and a net negative. Incredible how much better they look without him.

    Give him another 150 Mil.

    It's all about giving small nation GDP sized deals to guys who dont impact winning.

    Better than nothing but ending on a good note would be much more appreciated than anything else.

    ^As usual, he puts a bunch of words together that don't actually make an intelligent thought.

    Imagine 30,000+ posts without the slightest indication of any intelligence. That's quite a feat.

    CHI needs to get Josh some help. I think we have a large enough sample of games now; he's legitimately this guy. Just imagine if he had better players around him. He's got the type of game that'd benefit greatly from superior teammates. Anthony Davis as a primary PnR partner? Lauri Markkanen flying off screens? He needs that kind of action.
