    This should be a great game.

    When the Bulls are on offense, here are the percentages for how they get their offense with rank and Blazer rank in parenthesis.

    18.4 pick and roll #30 (#21)
    18.1 spot up #16 (#2)
    12.2 transition #8 (#5)
    11.3 cut to basket #16 (#11)
    10.4 post up #3 (#30)

    and when the Blazers are on offense
    24% pick and roll #8 (#10)
    18.1 spot up #8 (#12)
    13.9 postup #17 (#21)
    11.3 transition #7 (#9)

    Looks pretty favorable. Good stuff.

    Batum on Deng will be a big match-up.

    Butler is out for Chi.

    Rose/Hinrick scare me a bit.

    Kirk and Rose together do not worry me much. Ranking dead last on the pick and roll is pretty telling.

    Bulls record won't be 6-3 when they play us. They have a game tomorrow.

    The bulls are actually my favorite eastern conference team.

    It is in Denver too. I wonder what teams records are on back to backs after playing them. I hear it is a major pain in the ass to get to the airport.

    Ya, I was thinking more like Phx killed Portland. It was more just penetration in general, not necessarily a pick and roll.


    AND Denver air port is one of THE worst this side of the mississippi. Can't say I've flown much to the east coast.

    Late ass start time in Denver to! 2nd game of the TNT double header will start at 8:45PM Denver time. National televised games last 3 hours. Denver's airport is the furthest away from the arena in the whole league. They won't leave Denver til roughly 1:30AM!

    Sounds good. We need all the advantages when playing a tough team like the Bulls. This will be our biggest challenge since playing the Spurs, if not bigger.

    I love how it's like a perfectly evil plan slowly coming together. No excuses to lay eggs Blazers!!! Take care of business on Friday, and do it early!!! Bench plays the entire 2nd half!!! (I hope)

    Bulls are the most overrated team in the league..I'd be surprised if we don't win by 20

    I think a great matchup will be Lopez vs. Noah. I look forward to that.

    I 100% disagree with you. This team did well last season without their franchise player. They have an excellent coach. The entire team has bought into their philosophy, just as the Blazers did with Stotts. They are not hype.

    My wife and I got club level seats for the first time for this game. I'm excited for the overall experience. Any suggestions?

    Oh insider guru, do the Blazers ever have a one day between games and decide to stay in town that night and fly out early in the morning?

    The better food is at the buffet. The stomach ache from overeating is not worth it.
