In case you're felling low on white guilt, feel free to chime in to a bunch of whiny millionaires jacking 3's for 6 months until they start playing games that matter.

I thought it started in November. Does the season really start tonight?

I bet I haven’t watched 6 full NBA games since the Bulls were winning championships.

You don't watch college football, you don't watch baseball, you don't watch NBA basketball, sounds like you don't watch Illini basketball, and, based on your Fields takes, it appears unlikely you watch much NFL football either. Guess that leaves women's gymnastics.

Bulls are running it back with the same underwhelming crew. What could possibly go wrong?

Jokic and the Nuggets are just too good. Don’t see anybody beating them this year. Jokic makes the game look so easy. It’s like he’s not even trying most of the time. He plays so under control and almost in slow motion compared to others, yet unstoppable.

And Jamal Murray is probably the most underrated player in the NBA. Quite possibly the best PG in the league.

He is.  Nugs looked solid tonight.  Does LeBron ever make a layup without traveling?

20 point home loss to OKC. They're already in midseason form.

Hilarious. The Bulls are terrible.

At least they went 14/18 from the free shot line!

The Bulls and Raptors both fucking suck. Neither side wanted the W in the last minute of regulation.

Alex Caruso for the win.

It looked like DeRozen was trying to miss that one free shot on purpose before the inbounds foul stuff near the end of regulation.

Man, the Bulls look so much better without Lavine. They should just cut his ass. They’re playing team ball and much faster. Ayo and Coby really looking much better.

Ayo with 24/8/5 tonight for the Bulls on 10/12 shooting and 3/4 on 3’s. The Bulls had 32 assists. They are so much better with Lavine out. They need to get rid of him for whatever they can get.

Phoenix, Utah, Lakers, and maybe a few others could all be trade partners.

Phoenix needs an additional scorer and a PG Collins/Ayo would be both good on this team

Utah is in dump mode it seems...Collins is a salary dump as well as Sexton

Lakers well they are not going to age well imo, who leads them when James goes down?

and who else knows who could take on salary dumps.

I am on record as never ever liking Zach Lavine's game

He’s a ball hog and cry baby. That is not a good combination to have in a locker room. You can tell the Bulls are doing much better without him. No team wants to take on his contract to be a third option, and that’s basically what he is on a good team. He is not a leader.

Saw podz on the floor for the warriors at the end of the game, which they won, that was neat
