Chicago Bulls 117, Detroit Pistons 115 (Final)

What’s the buzz on Twitter?

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Zach LaVine is a willing passer, even if Patrick Beverley said he wants the LaVine shooting, not passing
That’s not the only reason LaVine’s 41-point, 0-assist night stood out. It continued LaVine’s recent aggressive efficiency

#Pelicans offense is looking much better tonight in 1H, despite still starting slowly from three-point range (2 of 7). Based on current #NBA team stats, this is first game New Orleans has played vs. a bottom-five defense since Jan. 13 at Detroit, which was 20 games ago – 10:54 PM

Patrick Beverley once again calling for Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan to shoot more — specifically 20+ attempts per game — after tonight’s win.
Zach went 14-for-20, DeMar went 7-for-16.
Zach was all here for the encouragement: “Bev wants me to shoot everything — and I love it.” – 10:26 PM

Who are next year’s tankers gonna be?
Detroit gets Cade back. Houston seems to want to accelerate with these Harden rumors. Charlotte has been normal bad, not tanking bad, when they’ve had LaMelo.
San Antonio probably, but who else? – 10:22 PM
Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
The Bulls escaped disaster in Detroit after a rare timeout error by the Pistons — but tonight’s win still highlighted the “lack of edge” keeping this team just below play-in contention. chicagotribune.com/sports/bulls/c…10:20 PM
Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
DeMar DeRozan echoed frustration with 2nd-half energy: “It becomes draining. We’ve just gotta show a sense of urgency coming out of halftime, especially when we have a lead and understand the other team’s not gonna lay down and just let us win. They’re gonna come out swinging.” – 10:19 PM
Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Billy Donovan was frustrated by the way the Bulls let up in the second half: “You see this team in the first 24 minutes of the game that’s playing unbelievable, beautiful basketball. Then you see a team looking lethargic, uninspired. It’s amazing to me to be quite honest.” – 10:13 PM
Chuck Swirsky @ctsbulls
What a ballgame the Bulls survive a Pistons Motown meltdown in the final nine seconds and beat Detroit for the 14th consecutive time. Jaden Ivy on an inbound play called a time out – one problem – Detroit didn’t have any remaining ,resulting in a FT and the ball . Bulls win ! – 10:06 PM
Chicago Bulls @chicagobulls
Zach finished with a 40 piece in Detroit.

Casey credits Wiseman and Bagley for their presence around the rim defensively late in that game. Said he felt that the Bulls felt those two late in the game. – 9:55 PM

Jaden Ivey called for a timeout that the Pistons didn’t have.
The Bulls went on to win the game.

Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
Casey said he and Ivey had a chat earlier this week about trusting him late in games. Said he “panicked” on the inbounds, but that the game was lost in the first quarter and the Pistons just fell short. “We can’t wait until the fourth quarter to play like that.” – 9:53 PM

FINAL: Bulls 117, Pistons 115. Detroit used a 27-8 run to rally from a 21-point deficit and tie the game at 108. Ivey had a towel covering his face as he walked off the floor after calling a timeout they didn’t have while down 2 with 9.7 seconds. Tough moment he won’t forget. – 9:32 PM

I thought this was simultaneously one of Ivey’s better and poorer games. Had some really bad turnovers, but also has 18 points on 9 shots and made some great passes during Detroit’s fourth-quarter run. But he might’ve cost them the game with that timeout. – 9:29 PM
Christos Tsaltas @Tsaltas46
With his 41 points tonight, Zach LaVine counts his 4th 40-point game this season and 19th in his NBA career. #BullsNation9:28 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
Pistons just called a timeout they didn’t have, big yikes. Bulls will shoot a technical free throw and then gain possession of the ball. Pistons went from taking the final shot trailing by 2, to now having to quickly foul and pray for two missed free throws. That might do it. – 9:27 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Pistons just pulled a Michigan: Called a timeout they didn’t have.
Bulls will shoot a tech and get the ball.
That should do it. – 9:26 PM
Mike Curtis @MikeACurtis2
The Pistons didn’t have any more timeouts when Ivey called it, leading to a technical free throw for the Bulls. Definitely a rookie mistake. – 9:26 PM
Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Oh WOW. Bulls might escape this one on a serious error by Ivey, who called a timeout that the Pistons didn’t have. Bulls get the ball back and a free throw. – 9:26 PM

Good amount of boos for Andre Drummond as he checks in – 7:30 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
Ivey turned the ball over trying to find Bagley at the rim. Bulls missed the transition opportunity on the other end, and Ivey rebounded it and found Bagley down the court for an open dunk.
Bulls 29, Pistons 21 with 3:27 on the clock. Detroit trailed by 15 and has 4 turnovers – 7:28 PM

He just finished a February in which he averaged 25.5 points on 52% FG.

That slow start to season? In rearview mirror. – 7:19 PM

After the game in Toronto, Patrick Beverley talked about #Bulls making some IQ mistakes, such as the wrong guy coming over to set a screen, which didn’t create the most ideal matchup. – 7:13 PM

Mike McGraw @McGrawDHSports
Tonight’s game should tell a lot about #Bulls‘ ability to make late-season push. Winnable game at Detroit, but second leg of back-to-back against rested team.
James Wiseman is starting at center. Marvin Bagley just returned from injury and had 42 pts, 30 rebs in last 2 games – 6:44 PM
Erik Slater @erikslater_
Jacque Vaughn on what it takes for Mikal Bridges to adjust from a complementary to lead scoring role:
“It takes a lot. He’s now probably going to be guarded by the number one or number two defender. So when we play Chicago, (Alex) Caruso is guarding, Pat Williams is guarding,… – 6:43 PM

Patrick Williams should be good to go for tonight’s game despite that ankle sprain.
Billy Donovan said it was a bit sore after the normal in-game adrenaline wore off, but not enough to impede his play. – 5:44 PM
Mike Curtis @MikeACurtis2
Dwane Casey says Bojan Bogdanovic is playing tonight vs. the #Bulls: “He loves to hoop. For me, my preference was to limit his minutes, but when a man wants to play, we’re going to give him that opportunity.” – 5:27 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
Casey said the Pistons will watch Bogdanovic’s minutes tonight and sees how he feels. – 5:25 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
Bojan Bogdanovic has been upgraded to available. Was listed as probable last night. – 5:13 PM
Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
“So what if you have a bad shooting game? We’ve just got to get them up.”
Should Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan take more shots?
The Bulls have plenty to shore up on offense, but one through-line is clear: they can’t keep up this low volume shooting.

Bulls at least prove themselves grammatically superior to We The North Raptors by showing We Are Not as Effective in the North this season.
