For those saying that the Bulls can't score enough, you guys realize that their offense has been quite a bit better than ours, right?
They rank 12th in points per possession, we rank 18th.
That's primarily due to two factors: they're an excellent offensive rebounding team, and we're extremely turnover prone. Those are two very real advantages that the Bulls have that they'll be able to exploit.
I think we can beat the Bulls, but they're not the walk in the park that some in here are saying. As much as I don't like Noah, I think a lot of people are underestimating him, and folks are definitely undervaluing Boozer and the Chicago bench, in my opinion.
Stats are the most misleading thing in the history of the universe
Not really. That stat reflects which team's offense has been more efficient / better to date. It's an accurate assessment.
There's an argument that stats can be twisted to reach misleading conclusions, but that stat itself is pretty clear regarding which offense has been better to this point of the season.
Yeah, certainly you do have a point
But humans decide who wins a game, not stats. Stats can never record the ebbs and flows of they ways a team is playing. Its too unpredictable
