    LA had double digit rebounds but man did he alter shots and create stops..one of his better defensive efforts

    thats the thing. He does. The guy can have five good games in a row and his first bad night people are all over his back.

    Chicago was 25th in the league in 3pt shooting before this game, they've never been a good 3pt team

    Really liked the defense(granted, it's easier against a team like that), with Aldridge being able to kind of play off of Noah outside and kind of roam slightly,and having Lopez on a smaller Boozer or Taj. Aldridge floating roughly around the FT line most of the possession really hurts an offense, because he is able to take up so much space in the middle there.

    Best win since mid-January. It felt like we were back for the first time in two months.

    He's still young. JJ Reddick took a few years before he became an impact player in this league.
    I thought I read that they shoot 37%.

    Best win since December. Been a long long time since we looked like that.

    That was a Brian Wheeler stat, said they were 25th in 3pt% going into this game and now probably dropped another notch. Chicago is not an offensive jugernaut by any stretch but we played better defense than they did tonight and they were on 4 days rest while we're at the end of a long road trip

    He didn't. Thibs is just not a good coach in terms of substitutions.

    Great. They still missed a ton, regardless.
