Not Pat, he'll probably be dealing with this injury for the rest of the season.

Somehow our Bulls will have to find a way to replace the invaluable 10 points and 4 rebounds from the $200 million dollar Tony Snell.

I hate this narrative.

Bulls lack size. So even if you think his 10/4 is replaceable, his size isn't. Not on this roster. Its the same reason why we still miss Torrey Craig's epic 6pts 5rebs.

Not to mention the defense.

If you think Demar, Coby, Ayo, Dalen etc. are better on defense than Pat, then I won't bother entertain irrational arguments.

You might not be a Bears fan so you might not be aware of the conversation over having "standards" in terms of what QB play should be acceptable. But this conversation applies to Pat Snell. Yes, I guess he's the only guy above 6'5'' on this roster that is passable. But he's not very good, which is a testament to the failure of our bottom of the barrel ownership/front office in how they've constructed this team.

Portland is rancid. A 7-12 home record? Just yuck. The Bulls aren't great but they pretty reliably know how to take out the trash. I expect a win.

Bad team but weirdly enough they have wins over Indy, Cavs, Phoenix, Sacramento. Only lost by 2 to OKC.
Pretty random team.

He should have sat for two weeks… weeks ago.

I think he could be out 3-5 weeks.

More and more everything points to AK FINALLY retooling and building for the future… But he won’t. He will trade for dead end vets.

I'm thinking we will be a very desperate team after these past 2 losses and should squeak this one out. Close win

I also see Portland winning… by simply dominating with size and athleticism. Their PG is going to be taller than our PF.

Is Coby gonna guard Grant?

Ayton gets to live up to his contract- Vuc BBQ.

Also see Simons as a year or two ahead of Coby in the development curve.

I’ll actually be impressed if Bulls pull this off.

If Pat’s in a walking boot by the trade deadline, it’s really time to just pull the plug on this season.. get some returns on whoever you can.

Might miss the first half of this one - the 9ers Lions game just got really interesting.

Its dumb and stupid. He has said hes had an injury a month ago. He comes back, gets hurt. Sits for 2 games, comes back and hurt again. He should have never played since the end of last year. Let it fully heal.

Now its probably going to be a Torrey Craig situation where he misses 2 months.

Well, if we lose PWill we'll have to find a PF at the trade deadline... right?

As a side note, I'm really impressed by Ayo's ability to attack the rim. He's really improved that way.

I always thought rookie Ayo when he drived didnt quite seem fast enough. But this year he is blowing by everyone consistently and people can't keep up. Ayo in the open court is like a young JKidd.

That Philips block was one on the best I’ve ever seen live. Jordan blocking Mercer is the best, IMO.
