Ran 'em off the court again in the 4th(44-26) but still needed a half court shot from Giddey to win it.

1-1/2 games back of the 8 spot.

Have the Bulls ever scored 9 points in 12 seconds?

While you might be correct part of me wants to see what they do in the play in games and playoffs if they get there. If they flame out in the play in then yeah it's back to NBA hell. But if they get in the playoffs and win the 1st round, then they have something to build upon.

I was there...it was incredible

and good for them for not tanking...you can't unlearn losing...it's a stench you can't shake

Tanking for picks is fools gold. You all know how many high first round picks fail in the NBA, and how many low picks become stars. Take the Magic: Shaq was the safest pick. They knew he couldn't shoot or dribble worth a fuck but his size and power in the post made him an exeption.

Penny Hardaway was another matter. His body went to shit in year TWO! And that team has been nothing ever since. These Unicorns: Always hurt. Porzingus, Yow Ming, Holgrem and now that stick figure in Huston...all in street clothes when you need 'em most.

Matus is not a unicorn...he's a Monocorn. He has the frame and the athletisism of a man of six foot four. If you saw his body and movement in silluette one would guess that. The only thing that is not in perfect proportion is his long freak arms, and that's a fucking good feature to have as a basketball player.

We don't need any damn billionaire "superstar" to hamstring the paroll like Zach and Patric Williams. This team will be heavily copycatted if we continue to be good...mark my word.
