Well, that wasn’t as amusing as the last one.
It was probably never going to happen, but a repeat of the Cameron Payne Game didn’t materialise. Though Payne did follow-up his career-best performance with an 11-point first quarter helping the Bulls to a 2-point lead after that period, the Bulls were then summarily blown out, ultimately finishing with a 135-106 drubbing.
In that last game, it was high comedy watching Payne and Ryan Arcidiacono beat out Kemba Walker and Tony Parker. Tonight, however, we came back to reality and received a glimpse of what the next 4-to-6 weeks will look like without Kris Dunn.
