Yeah, Bulls low key look like they don’t even wanna be there.
Imagine having to deal with this Knicks defense two games in a row. 96 minutes of Grimes, Mitch IQ, and Deuce hounding you on defense. Meanwhile, Randle and RJ are just running into you while you defend. Big ass dudes just beating you up. And every time you feel good about something, Jalen Brunson comes down hits some shyt that makes the crowd ooh and aah...this team is not fun to play against. They finally look like a Thibs team.

Brunson and Grimes will get praise for their offense and it’s well deserved. That being said this game is in our favor due to the dominance in the paint. Chicago can’t get through Mitch, Harestein or Randle in the post and it’s forcing them into those turnovers.

All of Brunson and McBride steals is due to the bulls player trying to attack the paint and making a tough kick out because they can’t do anything in the post

Very impressed with Sims D on Caruso. Moved his feet, locked him down, & shut down the lane. Give that man playing time
Part of the defensive improvements have been allowing these guys to switch more (especially Randle). I think they could do even more switching while Sims is on the floor at C. It sets him apart from the other two centers, who are both really valuable in their own rights. I think Hart gets a raw deal from the fans sometimes.
