A blowout loss is what I expect tonight from our valley boyz. Can't have good things for a long time.

I think that (win or lose) the game will be competitive. The team doesnt ever quit, but doesnt know how to win yet.

This has all the makings of a trap game where we play down to the level of a mediocre opponent and lose a game we ought to be able to win. We'll probably let some random Bull like Markanen or Lavine go off for 40+.

I think they feel too good about the way they’ve been playing to let up just because they’re playing an opponent whose record is only a little better than ours.

Having Oubre out changes my perception about the game. Im chalking this up as a loss.

It definitely evens the playing field. Look for Josh Jackson to step in and fill the void. ;)

I can live with a loss in such a short handed game, but we’d damn well better not just roll over and croak. It’s still Chicago, FCOL.

I've never understood some of these injuries keeping players out. Why can't someone play with a thumb sprain? Put it in a splint or something. NFL players play through all kinds of injuries.

Have you tried dribbling or shooting with your thumb in a splint? That doesn’t sound like a great idea...it’s much easier to tackle someone or block someone with an injury like this.

I definitely see a loss. It’s right there, printed on the front of their jerseys.
