This may seem weird but I'm not sure why Terry isn't playing.

The Bulls lack of a power forward always shows up against Giannis. 8 years and Bulls still have not found a competent defender.

Are the Bucks allowed unlimited reach ins or something?

Officials need to be held responsible when they are complacent in calls and non-calls since they end up losing control of the game and cannot officiate appropriately in those scenarios.

We are lucky no one has taken a swing. The refs are supposed to stop things from escalating but instead they are adding fuel to the fire.

Good.

Hopefully this means that he'll continue to be a rotation player.

Is Beverley talking trash? haha. It's a blowout.

Tensions have been high all night and the refs have done nothing but encourage it.

Tonight perfectly illustrates why AK is a failure for believing in DDR and Vuc. Both just give up mentally and complain, get Td up and tossed.

In years past I would be furious about Portis, PatBev, and the refs after the game but now it's only briefly in the moment.

It's funny...he's acting like he's a superstar making great plays. The game is over and has been over for awhile now.

Put in Bitim, Drell, Sanogo, and Funk if they're active.

Nobody guards him on offense and the team can't score tonight.

Exactly. The Portis elbow to DeRozan which lead to a DeRozan technical and flagrant was the start of a complete breakdown. The Bulls were beginning to rally in the 4th and then next thing you know they are down 20 because the lead official can’t seem to officiate impartially. It’s weird to see that in your own stadium but there it is on a nationally televised game for all to see. It’s a bad look for the NBA when an official goes rogue like this guy.

I mean I sympathize with the players who gave to deal with these aholes but ultimately it's management that let's these jokers clown the team.

I'm glad the Bulls didn't re-sign Bevelery when he was on the team.

I'd rather have him than Carter. Honestly, we need an azzhole instigator like him. Every team needs one.

Oh boy, here we go with the Adam Amin chucklefest

I know they are not shooting that well but damn... You can't allow 16 3pters every single game.

Funny how Portis didn’t get a T and he started everything..

I have to agree. He is the vet mentoring all the young guys?

Standing up for yourself is not wrong. Portis disrespected him there and Demar retaliated. Nothing wrong with that.If anything we need to see this side of Demar more often.

No. We don't. It wasn't just that 1 play. He's been at it all game.

When Ayo and Bitim are having to calm down Demar, Caruso we have a problem. All 3 of our vets lost their composure. Portis and Bev owned them. And I say that as someone who has never liked Portis.
