Bulls (0-0) at Celtics (0-0) Game 1 4/16/17

[positivitize]

Rookie lapse on D there by Jaylen.

Smart wanted him to switch, Brown waved him off and got burned by a tough shot from Butler.

[Snakehead]

Another rookie moment for Jaylen.  HANDS UP!

Yep, that hurt on the final shot by Chicago as he played too far off on defense.

[PhoSita]

Oof, two straight bad defensive possessions by Jaylen on Butler.

He's done pretty well defending physically inside of twenty feet but he's got a ways to go defending craftier players on the perimeter.

There is no excuse to not challenge that shot.

It feels like he checks where the pick is coming from too often

[Spilling Green Dye]

Can someone explain to me why they gave Butler the 3 on that play?

No need to explain how KO missed the open look.

Because he brings nothing of value to the court.

Really liking what I'm seeing from Marcus.  I think they need to set some better picks for Isaiah to free him a bit more.

Butler with 8 straight points.  We should get a glimpse of how the series plays out here in the 4th.  We can either outscore a star by committee, or not. 

Jerebko isn't a better option than Kelly?  I truly don't understand.  If I sucked that badly on any given day at my job, I'd be hypothetically benched. 

[Ogaju]

Marvelous + Marcus = Marvcus

nice nick for Smart.

Yeahhhh. This is why Brad has him on a shirt short leash, guys.

I hate to say this in times like this...

But IT will have to save us tonight, again...

[Snakehead]

KO doesn't deserve another second on the floor. 

You don't stop playing the second most important player off the bench because he isn't great in one game.

[BE-Celtic]

I don't know what Brad is thinking.  Yeah some of our lineups aren't working, but the solution is NOT to play 11 players.

KO doesn't deserve another second on the floor.  No more Zeller.  Green probably doesn't need to see the court at this point.

I disagree about green. He can get hot and score 5-6 quick points and be a great help. But come on anyway, all we have to do is beat the bulls on one quarter. And we have the best 4th quarter scoring team. Let's grab this win and breathe a bit

For a second there I thought you wanted to trade IT XD

I don't know. Sully got buried in the bench for Jerebko in the Atlanta series last year. If KO continue to sucks, he deserve the same treatment.
