There was a lot going on in last night’s impressive Bulls win on the road in New York. The game swung huge in both directions: the first half with the Bulls doing their forcing-turnovers-and-scoring-every-transition-opportunity show, and then the Knicks evaporating that deficit in the third quarter with inside play and 3-point makes.
If this is last year, the Bulls probably lose the game, and eyes are on Zach LaVine for not ‘being a winning player’ or something, and LaVine certainly had a worse 2nd half than the first.
But because DeMar DeRozan has been an insane 4th quarter scorer this season, the Bulls won, and therefore now Zach LaVine is a winner!
