11-0 run. Bulls only lead by 3 now

 

[bksballer89]

I don't know why but I find this funny

BK u have to miss D WADE. Clutch shot there. 4 3's tonight, 7 all of last year.

Wade the new Jason Kidd? Finds a 3 ball late in his career or just a hot night?

 

[Demonjoe93]

Dwight having a solid start to the season. Love the rebounding. Is this what it feels like to have a center that knows how to, like, rebound?

Nice Win by the Bulls tonight. Against a suppose top team in the East this year. I will take it. Now on to Indiana on Sat.

Really like how this team looked. I can see this team will be better then last year. I like the mix line up Coach Hoiberg did tonight. Big Guys played well tonight(Gibson and Lopez). 3 was not a problem tonight for the bulls.Combo of Butler and Wade was nice. 2 guys that can make clutch shots.

Good job by Boston to come back at the end. Showed some nice fight.

He made 4 tonight. He had 7 all of last year. LOL safe to say he will fly by that.

He never even looked to shoot 3's until the playoffs last season.
He's needed for years to add some range to his game.
Hopefully for you guys he did.

Rarely took them last season but made quite a few of them when he finally began to attempt them more frequently in the playoffs last year

16-0 run by the Clippers. Would love to stay up but staying up late the last two nights is finally catching up to me. No fun going to work on 4.5 hours of sleep

Wade really really had to carry just so much of the load in Miami once LeBron left. Playing with some solid vets like Butler and Rondo etc. in the back court with him should take a LOT of pressure off him. HOpefully the Bulls can rest him and have him in good shape and dont have to ride him as hard as he has been in the passed since that Roster is fairly deep.

Chris Paul, JJ Reddick and Raymond Felton all being on the same team right now has me cracking up. All we need now is for the Clippers to bring in Julius Hodge.

I missed the Kings game, from what I've read it sounds like they fought hard with the Spurs for the 1st half and into the 2nd half but ran out of gas towards the end. It sucks that the first regular season home game in this beautiful new arena is the 2nd game of a B2B for the Kings against a rested Spurs machine, that's like an automatic loss. I'm happy they hung in there and played good defense to keep it close, hopefully the Kings play with that effort all season long.
Also, I love watching Kawhi play. Coming out of San Diego State I knew he'd make it in the NBA with his great defense/rebounding and if his shooting ever came around he could become the superstar he is now. Great player and very calm attitude. Knowing the Kings passed up on taking him to get Jimmer fucking Fredette still pisses me off, like what the hell?

Here are the best games scheduled for tonight IMO:

Cleveland @ Toronto
Houston @ Dallas
Golden State @ New Orleans

I agree, They say he worked on it a lot this summer. Something like 200 3's a day or something. (I made that last part up but it is some kind of number wade said).

Very true. it was nice to MCW play well. Gibson and Lopez played great together. It was a nice mix.

This is so false lol. The only year he had to actually carry Miami in the least 6 years was 2014-2015. Please stop making garbage up

It's hard to know how good your offense is when you play the Rockets.

True. I was just glad to see them running an offense as opposed to whatever that was they ran last year.
