All the drama surrounding the Bulls coaching change and subsequent shitshow led me to think that the Bulls would improbably win this game. The Kings are a lot better than expected this year but still the Kings, it’s the NBA and things happen (especially at home), and I dunno maybe the Bulls - fully formed again with Kris Dunn and Bobby Portis back in this one - would be galvanized or something.
Nope! At least they weren’t ‘embarrassed’ early, but a double digit halftime lead was quickly turned into a big deficit as the Kings outscored the Bulls 63-33 in the second half to beat Chicago 108-89.
