DeRozan does it again. Back to back buzzer beaters, this time vs the Wizards. Bulls have won 7 straight. Demar is having a hell of a season so far.

He is playing so damn good right now.

1) So far I am being proven wrong on him. I thought he was a TERRIBLE signing by CHI.

2) He is shooting 8% higher on threes than his career high! Is it the ball???!?!? Smile 

3) He had NINE straight seasons of a negative On/Off +/-.....now is +15.8 this year.  Exclamation

Will be interested to see if this holds up.

Houston, we have a problem.... How can you disrespect John Lucas ?

Looking at the boxscore, you can see why the Wood situation escalated. He didn´t start the game. Then he put in an eight minute shift going -17 with a 0/1/0/0/0 stat line. I assume he was pouting, because he was benched.

Not immediately clear what the problem with KPJ would be. Guess not following some instructions, cause he played 16 minutes with 8 points, 3 assists, 1 turnover, minus five, which is by far the best number on the team, given they trailed by 24 at HT.

We already knew KPJ had a volatile personality, but well they got him for nothing, so not much of a problem. Take a shot, and it doesn´t work, you can just waive him.

Just saw that Wood is already in year two of his 41/3 contract, so not impossible to trade, but this was a reminder that he´s not an easy character and his trade value just went into the tank.

He didn't start because he was late for warm ups.

Justifiably so... I expect Houston to be active at the TDL.

I am not sure we have a legit offer for Wood now, but we could this offseason.  The question is he the right type of guy?  Can he do the right things for a winning team?  Is he dependable?  there was a lot of chatter about him previously and then some talk that he may have matured.


RE: AROUND the NBA: Zion foot healing regressing, reevaluated in 4-6 weeks - Tyler - 01-02-2022

Silas seems like the kind of coach who would really appreciate some hardworking Dwight Powell intangibles right now.


RE: AROUND the NBA: Zion foot healing regressing, reevaluated in 4-6 weeks - RedFlag41 - 01-02-2022

Maybe the Rockets will be amenable to trade Wood for Powell and Josh Green.

Powell is a serviceable big who will provide locker room leadership while Green has potential to be a future starter for them in line with their rebuild. As a good defender with some playmaking skills, he can be a good fit alongside the other Green who is more skilled offensively.

Wood, a mobile big with defensive and offensive skill, will fit nicely with KP. They can be interchangeable in offense and defense.

Kind of like to see more Green Energy in a Mavs uniform this season.  However, would Wood be happy here with fewer shots then he is getting in HOU?

Safe to say that Jaylen Brown isn´t getting traded any time soon. Career high 50pts in an OT game against the Magic.

50pts/11reb/4ast. 19/29 FG 5/10 from 3 7/8 FT.

Why should they? Him and Tatum are one of the best pair of wings in the league. They need to build a better team around them.

A lot of talk around the league. Getting more serious when Smart made a comment about their willingness to share the ball a few weeks ago. It is getting more and more obvious that both aren´t good or willing passers. Difficult to run a high level offense when two players are shot hunting. One with a mediocre 3.8:2.8 ast/tov ratio. One with a terrible 2.7:3.2 ast/tov ratio.

Last few games lead to heavy criticism of Brown.

24 FGA / 4ast / 6tov
36FGA / 0ast/ 3tov
20 FGA /3 ast / 6tov

He really needed a good game to silence the trade rumors.

Personally I agree with you and would try to build around them. Not exactly sure how but it probably starts with a pass first PG that can create a little bit more than Schroder or Smart.

Yeah, a Lowry type player would work magic with those two.   Not a lot of those super tough guys out there though who would demand the ball over those two.   A lower tier player like someone such as Tyus Jones could work.  Jones may be just a really good backup point, but I have always liked him.   He is a FA this summer.
