    Very much in the Bay Area sense. Oakland grows them tough. Dame and the VP.

    With 0 timeouts, it has to be crazy low! That's why I don't understand why Chicago didn't call a timeout to advance the ball.

    "Coaching staff did an amazing job..." -When asked a question not about the coaches.

    "Coach Stotts... I mean listen... I played with 8 different coaches, and I can see what coach Stotts meant to all of us. He's definitely a difference maker. He tells you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear."

    Now, I'm not sure if I buy it, but that's what he said.

    Good News we won, bad news Bucks lost 2nd in a row. Not sure if they’ll go down 3 in a row.

    ESPN said that Damian now has 3 "game winning buzzer beating 3 pointers"...I swear he's had more.

    We'll probably lose by double-digits, but at least we can enjoy tonights win! At least, some of us seem to be enjoying it.

    I thought I was watching college ball with those 2 offensive foul calls at the end.

    I'm assuming that if there is still .02 on the clock after Lillard's shot goes in, it wouldn't be considered a buzzer beating 3. So perhaps ESPN doesn't count those as buzzer beater

    Dame's should've been a block. Kanter's should've been a no-call. That their best effort.

    I'm fine if they keep Stotts, as long as they actually hire someone to coach the defense. And actually coaches defense.

    From Bulls Forum:


    Dame is the best PG in the league.

    Shame on Portland for giving him such a garbage team.

    You're the man, thank you!

    I believe they said the Bulls had a 99.8% chance of winning at the start of this.
