Watching Doug McDermott during the Power Clap absolutely made my day. If you were an NBA GM, you might have wanted to cut him right there. So awkward and un-athletic.

We will learn, as I always say, coaching is sooo important. I think you are right, Andrew, the attitude difference in the Bulls is astonishing. The confidence that they actually have ballers running the team changes everything. I am all in.

I would really like to know who is calling the plays for the Bears now. Funny to see them running what all of the experts were saying they should have been doing with Trubisky all along. A lot of boots and rolling him out of the pocket. Why did it take 2 and 3/4 years to TRY that? He actually looked good. He didn't throw any passes where I said "phew, that should have been picked".

Need to lose out to fire Nagy. Lets not ask for too much. They will not fire Nagy, Pace and Phillips. Lets start with Nagy.

Could not agree more. Doug, if that's how you do the power clap, nothing else is going to work here. You've been traded. Here's your locker plate.

It is honestly so refreshing not having to root for a team with Boylen as the head coach. If Coby can average 17 points/quarter going forward I don't see why the Bulls aren't the 1 seed coming out of the East.

In a seriousness note- the craziest turn of events that could happen this year is not that the Bulls succeed, but that you become pro- Zach Lavine. Maybe Billy D knows what it takes to get a guy to play defense?

Pace whiffed so bad on Glennon that you accidentally put his first name as Matt in the newsletter and I barely batted an eye at it and actually had to do a quick google search to make sure his name was actually Mike.

Damn I don't know whether Mike Glennon deserves an edit on that.

If I become pro-Zach LaVine that will most definitely warrant a Coach of the Year for Billy Donovan

Really tough position for us Bears fan. Like you said I am definitely rooting for them to get to the playoffs but in reality what’s the point. It’s torture.

Immediately after the third quarter of last nights preseason game I took bulls over 30 wins -105. I really do think they have potential. No one on the team wanted to play for their coach over the past few seasons. Now you add a respected proven winning coach and these guys will buy in. Last night we had guys on the floor, gafford dunking on guys, and Stacey king saying this is the best defense he has seen Zach Lavine play in his career. Gotta love Stacey in full form. I started laughing out loud when he went on the rant where he would say baby after every sentence when talking about Mitch. I really liked that starting five last night. Coby’s facilitating has looked a lot better than last year so far. His shooting was awesome and I think him and Patrick are going to have great chemistry in the court because they already have it off the floor.

Not saying a playoff run is anywhere close but the team is absolutely going in the right direction.
