Bulls '21-'22 Season Thread

[Old Style]

Is Andrew Wiggins a legitimate All-Star? His numbers don't seem to support that but he's a starter per the votes as of today.

 

I guess? I haven't watched him a ton but I keep reading that he's improved his game especially and is sort of a glue guy for the team. I'm sure there are multiple better options in the West (KAT, Gobert, Ayton, etc) but I don't think he'd be a completely ridiculous selection.

Asked a friend who's a Warriors fan. He said Wiggins is having the best year of his career but he laughed when I told him as of today Wiggins is a starter so I guess the answer to my question is no.

Caruso still in protocols tonight which sucks but the Warriors won’t have Green or Klay tonight

booooo

at some point you ahve to stop giving up 30-35 a quarter if you want to be competitive

[SpongeWorthy]

i think brooklyn and golden state combined have scored on 900 consecutive possessions

[Wilson A2000]

Zach left with a left knee issue. Out for the rest of the game.

[UMFan83]

Non contact knee injury is almost always the ACL. His season is over and probably part of next season

Didn’t look particularly bad. Got an offensive rebound, felt something, threw the ball away, and just walked straight to the locker room.

 

The Bulls might lose by 70 tonight.

There have been plenty of players that tore their ACL and showed no outward signs of pain. Curtis Enis once played an entire game with a torn ACL. The fact that he showed no pain was actually more concerning to me

good god i hope this is just out of an abundance of caution

[UMFan83]

Haha I’m an idiot. woj just said they don’t believe the injury is serious

[UMFan83]

The Bulls have now played 10 quarters on ESPN this year (2.5 games). They have been outscored 335-252 in those 10 quarters

[Wilson A2000]

Zach’s left knee had the ACL go out in 2017.

From what I’ve read, that doesn’t make it any more or less likely to tear again

[gflore34]

I know Zach going out is a big downer but, they're not even making an effort out there, ESPN announcers creaming in their pants over Igoudala' steals. Hell, I could make those plays when the balls being thrown to me to.

Right, but two injuries on the same leg wouldn’t be good

this is literally the only thing that matters tonight. could not possibly care less about the score.

Curious about how long he might be out if he avoided a serious knee injury.

 

So glad that we're thinking its not serious...the dude deserves to get paid not go into FA rehabbing an ACL tear

i was hoping for 3-3 in this 6 game stretch. 1-5 would seem good now, considering caruso is still out and now zach is for at least a week or 2.

 

if ddr had a real mvp case, this 6 game strech is going to make or break it

[We Got The Whole 9]

He doesn't actually have an MVP case.

 

Ultimately I'm not too worried about seeding, but id like them to at least get HCA in the 1st round. I think that's pretty likely. But injuries are certainly taking their toll.

 

I wish we'd give some run to McClung and see if he can pick up some of that scoring and playmaking slack off the bench. I think he has some game.

Lavine

Caruso

Green

Jones Jr

Cook

Possibly Ball

So much relief from seeing this.

[ChiCubsFan]

Season back on. Now tread water till we get some of these guys back.

[Cubswin11]

There’s probably like 15 games left until the ASB? Let Lavine sit until then and get like 30 days of real rest. Make a trade or two and then hit the ground running after the ASB.
