Man the NBA really hates Chicago. Like NFL refs calling this game for rodgers. But also the bulls suck.

Nevermind the bulls are good and the refs are betting on the game.

This game has been awesome the last 5 minutes but these refs blow. They’re either allowing a shit ton of contact or calling ticky tack bullshit. Nothing in between.

I'm torn on this. I am a Bulls fan, but was friends with VanVleet's dad back in middle/high school. So I always cheer for him.

Perfect timing. Put it on mid 4th. That was fun viewing

Refs turned a non shooting foul on Siakam into three FTs somehow. Siakam missed two of them; bulls rebound, Vuc hits two FTs, puts bulls up 4 with 10 seconds.

I normally never pin a game on refs especially a couple bad calls but that was like 3 quarters of bias .. it was obvious in a fucking bar.... all set up for the raptors and somehow the bulls beat it. Fucking wow. Seriously fucking wow.

The Heat are going to smoke them though

Debatable, but probably. Losing a second play-in at home would be a catastrophe.

Yeah who the hell knows at this point. I thought the Heat would roll the Hawks and the Raptors would roll the Bulls.

Bulls deserve credit, but it's pretty funny watching the fans at Jurassic Park...I get it's fun, etc, but the reality is that these were two mediocre teams battling for the right to maybe make the playoffs and get swept by Milwaukee.

I was livid Billy didn't use his challenge on that Siakam non-foul. Siakam could've tied the game if he hit all 3 free throws. The Bulls were 12 seconds left from possibly going home but he decides to keep his challenge in his pocket again.

This is a non criticism of Billy Donovan zone around here. MANY believe that he isn't part of the problem. His game management (particularly in close games) is atrocious.

Apparently it’s not considered a ‘successful challenge’ if they deem a shooting foul was a non-shooting foul. Since they wouldn’t overturn the ‘foul’, it stands as called and the Bulls lose the challenge.

I thought the Raptors challenge was interesting too. You could tell by the Raptors reaction that they thought the foul being overturned meant that it was a jump ball. But their "successful challenge" just changed it from a foul to Bulls ball out of bounds.
