"We're going to try to win EVERY GAME" - The Chicago Bulls 2024-25 Season Thread

[Brozay]

Defense and his shot were the biggest question marks for him, but I think he's already looking pretty solid defensively and better than he looked in Summer League.

Ive only heard good things about his defensive potential since we drafted him, what do you mean by that being a question mark

Analysts and scouts would always mention the help shot blocking ability from the help side being good, but he wasn't seen as an overall + defender.

It was said that his BBIQ and size could lead to him becoming solid on that side of the ball. He wasn't considered a good defender in the G League

Last night he was keeping guards in front, and positionally in the right spots. He didn't even look like that on defense when we saw him in Summer League

Doesn't help that they aren't on YTTV. I'm not home, so I'm assed out anyways.

That's the offensive pop we been missing since lonzo went down. Having a playmaker on the floor in giddy making life easy for lavine

BTW price of the lavine brick going up.....

My DOG lonzo will play in one or two of the bulls 2 preseason games left

Can’t wait most hyped I’ve been since the GOAT came back from retirement

Didn't watch the game but looking at the box score it looks like Julian had a nice game. I liked what he brought before the injury last year.

might as well let matas play the PF, cuz p-wil is giving you NOTHING. at least matas is aggressive.

 

[Buckeye Fever]

I turned it to NBC Chicago and Xfinity had a message that isn't a channel anymore

This isn't the game to make this statement. They both weren't good tonight.

Dalen and Julian are the guys that Billy just won't be able to keep off the floor.

Dalen looks like Caruso out there at times on defense whenever he's subbed into the game
