PLAYBOOK
I am not going to kid anyone in Bulls Nation but this Team the Bulls will face Tonight has a top 10 Starting Unit in the Logo real talk. The Problem for the Blazer when they need reinforcements there are zilch. That has been the product of their Demise and the main reason they are on the outside looking in.
The Bulls will have their hands full at the PG Spot as Blazer 2012-13 NBA Rookie of the Year to be Damian Lillard of "ADIcolor" Fame of Three Stripes is the Real Deal. The Blazers have been unfortunate in previous Drafts dating back to Sam Bowie over one Air Jordan or Greg Oden over Kevin Durant. They didn't though miss on this Kid who has been sensational. The Bulls Guards of Nate and Marquis Teague will have to make Lillard work for all what he gets. He is equally effective and comfortable both in Transition or in the half court sets. His Ace in the Hole...Wes Matthews Jr. is a "Stick you Up" Guard first than he will let his Offensive Game fly. Marco Belinelli among others need to run Matthews Jr. off the Arc and force him to put it on the Deck.
Luol will also have his hands tied guarding French National Team Starting Small Forward and Blazers 4-year $48 million jack-of-All-Trades SF Nikolas Batum. Batum is a tremendous Talent that has evolved onto a big time Scoring Threat and Triple Double Threat. Luol has to make Batum work on both ends and he too can consistently knock down the Money Ball.
The Mismatch will be at Power Forward and Bulls PF C-Booz 5 will met 2012-13 All-Star LaMarcus "L-Train" Aldridge and his nasty Offensive Arsenal. Back to the Basket, Face Up, Mid to Range plus, and can even get most Bigs off the Bounce, The Bulls will need a collective effort to slow him down ads the Seagoville, Texas Native is a surefire 20-10 Dude.
Jo Knows has the advantage in the middle although it isn't a real big advantage. Blazers makeshift Big JJ Hickson has had a breakout season. If you remember a few seasons ago he was King James Caddy and the 2nd option for the Cavs in Games down the Stretch and their #1 Low Post Option. Jo Knows Blue-Collar Attack works on most nights but his Twin arrives Tonight wearing Red and Black in Hickson.
