Remember when we talked about careless mistakes ruining Bulls runs? Hell of an example there.
Ayo tosses a pass up the court to Torrey Craig’s back. Turnover. Then the defense doesn’t adjust back and Johnson gets a layup.
Lead down to 7 as Billy takes another timeout. – 8:14 PM

Billy Donovan was as animated as he’s been all season in his pregame session while talking about the slow starts. His point is: Bulls play with desperation and energy and force and physicality when they’re down big. Why not play like that from start?
Answer: Bulls 7-0. – 7:43 PM

Incredibly sloppy series of near-turnovers by Coby and PWill, but they close the possession off with a 3-pointer.
Cathartic start for the Bulls who take a quick 7-0 lead in Brooklyn and force the Nets to take the early timeout. – 7:43 PM

The Bucks had a chance to cut the Blazers’ lead down to 9 points, then…
Portis missed a dunk, which led to a Sharpe layup on the other end. And then Antetokounmpo airballed a 3, which led to a Scott Henderson lay-up in transition.
