The normal shot clocks are not working in Chicago. There is one in a corner on each end of the floor. The PA announcer is also counting down the seconds at the end of the shot clock.
The Sixers are not going to play a normal basketball game on this trip. – 3:44 PM

Last time #Bulls played Sixers, Embiid scored 30, but what really hurt Bulls, I thought, was not being able to contain guards. Maxey/Milton combined for 14 assists, drove and dished to Embiid/Korkmaz who went 11-14 from 3. Milton is out today, Korkmaz & Thybulle questionable – 2:28 PM

The team is the NFC Champion Rams. But the Bulls should pay attention. Stafford is Vooch, RWoods is PWill. But the Rams didn’t do it halfway. Grabbed VMiller at the deadline, signed OBJ. Understood that “windows” are a fugazi. The time is now – future be damned. What say you AK? – 12:32 PM

If Bulls lose today and Spoelstra becomes an All-Star coach, it would be the third time for a Heat coach in franchise’s 34 seasons. Also:
-Stan Van Gundy, 2005
-Erik Spoelstra, 2013
(But never Pat Riley, who did coach the West in the lone All-Star Game held in Miami, in 1990.) – 12:12 PM
