I want to be hopeful but the bears make it incredibly difficult. I really can’t believe nagy and pace are still here it’s frustrating. There are so many unknowns that I refuse to think about them. Thank god for the bulls and mlb season coming up.

Two tough losses against good teams. Zach this year has been great about delegating the offense and getting everyone involved. Unless he gets hot and drops 20 in a quarter. But as soon as the fourth rolls around he feels the need to takeover. Sometimes it has worked but more often than not (especially against good teams) he is doing too much. Way too much iso ball late in games. I would say this pelicans game is a must win heading into the break but they have been playing incredibly well.

Little taken aback with the ritual shot. Guard well bro.

I had no idea how to describe the Bulls' 4th quarter on Friday night until you mentioned Jim Boylen's name. It was just weird to see a total 180 from the team after a very strong first 3 quarters. LaVine seems like he is looking for an "all star moment" every time it comes down to the last possession and I'm not sure anyone can change that mentality for him. It feels like he is telling himself he has to be fading away and at least 4 steps behind the 3 pt line in order for him to take the shot. We're turning around Bulls' Fridays in the second half, too many positive vibes on Fridays to have the Bulls losing basketball games!

I'm all in on Tom Herman. If you have diarrhea coming out when you pee, you are a bad guy!

I didn't watch the presser, but my excitement around Deshaun Watson and Russell Wilson subsided when I remembered who we have running the show.

Tonight is massive for the Bulls heading into the All Star Break. I didn't expect to beat the Suns or Nuggets- but the fact that they were both such winnable games it what stings. It would have been gravy, but man we really could have used one of those. I do trust in Billy, and its definitely an interesting limbo between competing and developing. This team is too fun not to compete but need to find a way to accomplish both.

Don't even get me started on Denzel Valentine. Some great tweets circulating about him last night. One calling him "Andre Roberson with the confidence of Steph Curry" and another saying he looked like "a 12 year old who just watched the highlights of LaMelo Ball's 92 point high school game".
