Game Thread: Spurs @ Bulls — Mon. (1/27/20) - 7:00pm/C

[313]

There hasn't been much trade action in general across the league though tbf.

[EasyMoney]

Bulls dealing with a lot of injuries... Another game where the Spurs play down to their compe ion and let the bulls in it in the 4th and pop thinks mills and Forbes will provide the necessary defense to stop Zach lavine and he hits a go ahead shot to win the bulls the game. Bulls by 4

[313]

True but a team like Sa will want to wait until the last minute for a decision like this.

Yeah, my fingers are crossed the trade rumors are true, and they've at least been seeing what's available. Ideally we move LMA, Demar, and Forbes for as many young assets as we can get.

This would be one of those losses near the trade deadline that pushes SA to make a move if they are on the fence. A loss to this CHI team, with all the ramifications quite frankly would be the worst loss of the season and that’s saying something.

SA can absolutely not lose this game. If they do? Has to be serious gut check time for PATFO

Agreed. Spurs have five games before the deadline, they lose this game and their is a good chance that they go 1-4 and end up 21-29.

They'd have to consider making a move if they lose tonight.

[TDomination]

If we have a starting line up like we did to start yesterday’s 2nd half I’ll watch. This was White Forbes Murray DeRozan Lamarcus. It should be walker instead of Forbes but you know

I think they have, correct that, I know they have been doing due diligence already. However, there is a wide gulf in doing due diligence and organizationally deciding that blowing it up is the direction to go.

I think SA is and are waiting until the last possible second to see how their playoff chances look. At this point, while they have not made up any ground, they have not lost any either. So they will likely just stand pat.

But a loss like this might tip the scales on their outlook.

[EasyMoney]

Aldridge out tonight with a thumb sprain. Let's see if pop has the balls to put Marco as center

[TimDunkem]

Lma out. Loss guaranteed.

[talkspurs]

With LMA out hopefully we will get some Metu Magic tonight. I am thinking Potel will take most of his minutes. I have not seen anything on Gay being out but if he is as well that would leave Potel lyles Metu as out bigs. I bet beli and DDR would play some there as well.

[Sugus]

The fact that playing a SF at the 4 is even a possibility over a developing PF who needs the minutes tells you everything you need to know about this season. As many losses as it takes for Pop to step down, I'll take, please and thank you. Cmon Chicago!

[TimDunkem]

Fixed.

[Degoat]

Bet Eubanks gets more playing time then Metu still lol

[Sugus]

Fixed.

Yeah, even worse tbh... Such a ed up roster we have, almost every player playing out of position. Insane.

[BillMc]

What's the issue with LMA's thumb? Could he miss multiple games?

[TDomination]

Yeah, even worse tbh... Such a ed up roster we have, almost every player playing out of position. Insane.

yep, too many guards.

Murray/White/Forbes/DDR/Patty/Walker/Marco. 7 guards as main rotation players. 7! lol

At least Murray white and walker can play big due to their length.

[TimDunkem]

Bet Eubanks gets more playing time then Metu still lol

Gross. Figures Pop would go with the towel waving "culture" guy over the black athlete.

[Mugen]

Let's go Bulls!

[emanueldavidginobili]

Jakob starting in place of LA tonight.

[timtonymanu]

Let's go Bulls!

[Ron Swanson]

[timtonymanu]

Should let Demar sit too so he can have time to mourn Kobe. Anything to help this team get a loss today.

[NASpurs]

I'm surprised Marco isn't starting at center tbh.

[emanueldavidginobili]

LaVine going for 35+

[EasyMoney]

Bryn is guarding lavine. Why?

[Leetonidas]

Forbes already with two bricks. Wonder how long til he dips under 35% overall
