    I wonder what the others think watching us sit a guy with the talent of Cam but roll out Tate for minutes who no other team in the league or probably even Europe would want.

    1) Without Fred shooting like Curry, we would be down by 20.

    2) Our defense is day and night without at least one of Tari or Amen. Without both of them, this is a mid d or worse.

    3) If I have to chose, it's Tari over Bari. Just hope Tari gets completely healthy.

    Have to be fair, we are on the second night of B2B without Tari and Amen. So its understandable that our defense looks significantly worse.

    The bulls are well rested and desperate. Hopefully Ime cussing this team out will motivate them.

    Well looks like Grizzlies are taking care of their business. Can we do the same?

    Stone sucks on making trade.
    He only collects trash players.

    Im just a fan BUT do the coaches read the Scouting Reports???

    Why play Tari last night, when Chicago is a running team, more conducive to running and getting up and down the court. Dallas was depleted, why play him then?

    The Rockets played Tari in one game and saved Steven for the other. I have no problem with that. It's not like Chicago isn't missing key guys too.

    I don’t get why Ime would put in Tate or Holiday over him when Bulls can’t miss rn

    Fair questions I wondered the same when they played him a day before a Golden State game and then he sat against the Warriors. Although in this case this bulls team really shouldn't matter as much, we should handle them comfortably with or without Tari.

    We are notorious for playing down to competition, though I was hopeful we finally got over that.

    I wouldn’t feel good paying either big money. Jabari is just inconsistent, and Tari isn’t available. I would wait til next year to make a decision to extend. I need to see if Tari can play back to back. Jabari looked decent prior to the injury

    You're making no sense of course. But you do you

    We are short handed and tired.

    But we dont play Cam? It does not make sense.

    I 100% agree. I said early that we need to play Cam. Why not let him get some run to develop?

    I don't think you understand what I'm saying. They could have set him out last night and played him tonight, because Chicago play more to Tari's pace.

    Besides, Chicago is on a 4 game win streak. It just made better sense
