The UnpredictaBULLS Strike Again in BIG win over Timberwolves

The UnpredictaBULLS Strike Again in BIG win over Timberwolves

So in the Bulls last four games they lose to one of the worst teams in the league if not the worst team in the league especially considering the Wizards were playing their g-league squad they then follow that up with a game by playing against a tough Pacers

Team who is one of the best offensive teams in the NBA leading the league in points per game and they somehow hold them to under 100 points for the first time in their season and get the win they follow that game up by losing to a struggling Brooklyn Nets team which they

Allowed them to put up 25 threes on the game and they themselves shoot 9 for 30 from three and now they go on the road against one of the better teams in the league at the top of the Western Conference the best defensive team in

The NBA and they put up 63 points on them in the first half and would go on to win said game by playing one of the better defensive games of the season on some of the most efficient offense again against the number one defensive team in

The league this team does not make any sense they make absolutely no sense it’s the most frustrating thing ever but I still love it when we see games like this win like this the Bulls came out strong brought great energy were locked in on defense had an incredible first

Half where they had already exceeded the amount of Threes made in that first half than they did the entire last game against the Nets in large part thanks to Caruso who went five for five from Deep by halftime he would then later go on to hit a career high in threes going seven

For eight for the night but more on Caruso in a little bit and while the first half was impressive I was still a little skeptical that the Bulls would be able to maintain 60 plus% shooting and lighting up the wolves from three and sure enough it was starting to look like

The Bulls were going to blow this game after having a 16-point lead in the third quarter where they were turning the ball over and allowing a lot of points in transition the shots weren’t falling down like we saw in the first half and then by the time the fourth

Quarter rolled around it was almost like you saw the classic Bulls falling apart after having a solid lead in the second half where the Wolves actually took the lead themselves at one point but very briefly as the Timberwolves would only lead by two with a few minutes left to

Go and those possessions with about 2 minutes left in the game where dear hit that big three to put them back up two the Wolves came back with a quick empty possession Bulls missed but they get the offensive rebound Caruso hits another three to put them back up four I was

Shocked that Tim roles didn’t call timeout there Caruso on the other end comes up with the steel which was his fifth steel of the night they push it in transition and Kobe lays it in quickly to go from the Bulls trailing by one with 330 left in the game to then

Leading by seven with 2 minutes left to go and the Bulls never look back at after that like even though a seven-point lead with 2 minutes left in the NBA is nothing anymore they only allow the Wolves to score two points from that point on and then of course

Kobe hits the dagger three when they needed it most to put this team away it went from a potential collapse of the Bulls to them turning the tables and forcing the Wolves to collapse themselves so look what I’ll say about this game is this we know this team is

One of the most inconsistent teams in the NBA we know they’re not a title team we know they’re at best a first round exit as the eighth seed by way of the playin we know what the ceiling is of this team and nothing has changed that

But a win like this and after seeing the way they showed up against the Pacers the other night gives me much more confidence in how the Bulls will show up in the playing game because the Bulls play their best when the competition level is at its peak they like the big

Moments they get up for games against the better teams in the NBA and they play down to their competition and don’t take the bad team seriously it’s maddening to see as a fan because you’re a professional basketball team and need to come ready to play no matter what and

If the Bulls had just gotten their act together in one games against teams they were supposed to you’d be looking at a very different season and a seating that was going to be much more manageable in the playoffs rather than that best seeing the Boston Celtics in the first

Round and yes it is at best seeing Boston in the first round as they aren’t going to move up to the eighth and potentially win that first playing game to get the seventh seed but either way it gives me more confidence that the Bulls are going to come ready to play

Against that 910 playin matchup against the Atlanta Hawks who they actually play tomorrow night in a back toback that said we probably shouldn’t expect anything from this team on a night toight basis so I say a game like this gives me more confidence but who the

Hell knows at this point but I did want to start with Alex guso in this ball game you just can’t say enough about how great he has been and the level of impact he has on this team every night he steps on the court and we’ve said before we already know the defensive

Impact he brings Elite level First Team all defense tonight he gets five steals finished with a 4 by5 game by the way taling at least five points rebounds assists and steals obviously the most rare to achieve being a 5×5 game to include blocks but for Caruso it was

More than just his top-notch defense where he limited one of the most explosive players in the league right now who has been on an absolute tear and I know it wasn’t AC guarding Anthony Edwards on every possession but he was on him a fair amount and held him to 9

For 20 from shooting 0 for five from three and it wasn’t just limiting Edwards it was Caruso’s ability to be everywhere they needed him to be in getting in the passing lanes and forcing turnovers but not only that having one of the most efficient nights on on

Offense of his career he only took threes in this game went seven for eight from Deep dude made his first six threes without missing five rebounds five assists again five steals 4 by five game in the stat sheet 21 points just an incredible performance and effort from

Alex KW so boths don’t win this game without him plain and simple Kobe white while he was a little quiet in this game especially in the first half didn’t take a ton of shots the ones he did take though he was hitting them and finally starting to look back to his normal self

And getting out of that shooting slump he went 4 for6 from three six for 10 from the flooor overall five rebounds three assists 17 points in 41 minutes Bulls are going to need Kobe white to be at his absolute best come playing time they’re going to need his shooting to

Draw defenses away from guys like dear Caruso and even vuich to spread the floor and give the Bulls more open looks I mean the thing about this game is you look at the box score and you see the Bulls shot an insane 17 for 29 from three on 58% shooting from three against

The best defense in the NBA well a lot of that was because they were getting wide open looks the the Bulls were not only moving the ball well but when guys are heating up and you have multiple weapons from outside it opens up so many possibilities on offense where you’re

Seeing kuso get many more open looks and you trust that he’s going to knock those down because he’s open when teams have to guard Kobe more heavily it opens up so much more for the rest of the guys to generate offense now of course dear still playing incredibly well there were

A few moments here and there and questionable shot selection in the fourth quarter he was trying to take over but hitting that three to put them back up was big time he still finished the game with eight assists while also putting up 27 points on 11 for 23

Shooting to also go along with a steel and a block and then vvi you know there were frustrating things about V what he did in this game like we usually see sometimes committing some frustration fouls not hustling back on defense getting beat badly in the paint but for

Going up against Rudy goar the favorite to win defensive player of the year I actually thought he did decently well I’m not going to say it was a great game for him but it was okay 19 points on 50% shooting even hit a couple threes which

Is always rare to see from V these days eight rebounds six assists and two steals like he was contributing it was much more engaged than we saw the other night against the Nets so it was a solid game for him and limiting also goar to just 10 rebounds which I know sounds

Like a lot but he’s the second best rebounder in the game averaging over 13 rebounds and he did a good job boxing him out to not give him as many offensive rebounds and second chance points the only time goar actually got offensive boards in this game is when he

Pushed guys in the back and got away with an offensive foul but yeah I mean the Bulls another 30 assist game on one of the best shooting Nights from three of their season and from the field overall 11 steals they outrebounded the bigger Timberwolves Bulls did have too

Many turnovers 16 and total but he kind of expect that from a great defensive team to force so many turnovers but it didn’t matter all that much because the Bulls forced a lot of turnovers of their own handing the Wolves 15 and scoring 17 points off set turnovers so yeah a great

Win for this team not really sure if we’ll actually see some semblance of consistency for the rest of the season in my video from earlier this morning and addicting the Bulls eight remaining games in the year I had them losing this game but beating the Hawks so watch

We’re now going to see them lose back at home tomorrow against Atlanta but we’ll have to wait and see in the meantime guys as always be sure to subscribe and I’ll see you in the next one
