  1. javonte said he worked on his shooting and he was not lying apparently

  2. Great bench lineup today.

    Don’t mind PWill coming off the bench, no way he gets enough shots as the 4th option as a starter.

  3. youngsimba320

    where all the ppl that trashed andre and dragon the other day

  4. AlexxRoyce

    The energy in the UC is always so noticeable watching the games on TV. Cant wait for it to turn up even more for the reg season

  5. Thatguy_Koop

    Dragic played a lot better this game and wasn’t so much hot potato passing this time around which is good. nice to see how this offense looks when its working.

  6. ExpertPipeLayer

    I miss the post game show to relish in the bulls victory a bit more

  7. Reasonable-Pop-103

    Perfect lineup would be Dalen, Jokic, Hartenstein, and two scrubs

  8. VampyVampster

    The Bulls are a great team…if it were the late 90’s early 2000s, they still did nothing in the off season to help their 3 point shooting or the fact their going to get out rebounded and killed in the paint, they’ll be rebuilding this thing sooner than later

  9. Aware_Library2718

    131 points on 60% shooting is insane

    Love how comfortable and confident Ayo is shooting 3’s

    Javonte is HIM

    Want Pat to take back his starting spot (even tho tonight probably wasn’t permanent) and take notes on how Javonte is getting his buckets

  10. ROSE-e-cheeks

    Thinking about this team with a healthy Zo keeps me up at night…

  11. Milkboy1516

    I liked what I saw from literally everybody tonight lol.

    Vucevic looks consistent and active, Zach’s so good at being selfless. Demar and Caruso were themselves.

    Ayo looks like he’s making the jumps you want him to in some of the best ways. Same aggressive driver. Stronger, used his hands well made plays defensively. And most importantly, he’s been taking threes I dreamed of him taking these 2 preseason games. He’s got my hopes up if he’s ready to shoot the way he’s shown. Hasn’t passed up threes.

    Javonte looked energized as usual. Idk what to make of his three ball. If he’s just gonna be PJ Tucker then he’s starting now lol. Well see if he maintains it.

    Pat looked good. Losing weight was the right move. He looks like he has the half step quicker defensively he’s always needed. Still active in general. Was always trying to make a move and made good plays. Also seems more ready to shoot which is big. Glad he’s playing

    Drummond and Dragic were both just good. Love what they brought. Both good defense good offense. Drummond’s fitting in really well. Glad his passing is translating in our offense. The rebounding is nice.

    Coby played well. Settled into his role well took good shots made some sloppy mistakes. His defense still sucks but I liked the way he played next to everyone.

  12. Dashznt315

    The 45 point 2nd quarter was really fun to watch.

  13. AMollenhauer

    Loved this game all around. Great play from pretty much everyone.

  14. ToeJelly420

    The biggest thing in preseason so far has been Vooch imo. We know demar and zach are great, and with Vooch playing like this we are a whole new team. his passing has been excellent and he is so good around the rim

  15. We got totally randomly upgraded from our 200 level seats to court side in the second half (shout out Daria!). It was surreal!
