Quite the last week for Ayo – some loud-talking vets in the huddle, a shoulder block into Pat Bev, and then keeping the Bulls afloat in the 22-point comeback win in Sac-Town … New Bulls tough guy? Nah, just some Chicago attitude in the mix.

Bobby Portis had 18 and 10 AFTER Clippers took largest lead of the game with 4:59 left in 3rd quarter
Clippers can get away with going small with bigs who have inadequate post games.

Tonight was the kind of loss where the Clippers small ball lineups come under scrutiny
That’s not just an external thought. Recalled the November loss in Denver and the reactions were similar.
As much as Dame may have hurt, Portis going off more upsetting. – 11:24 PM

Doc pulled all the right levers down stretch. PatBev/Brook returned and then Bucks forced shot-clock violation, PatBev steal, and Brook block on Kawhi. Stuck with AJ. Clips got some looks against the zone but overall it seemed to throw off their rhythm especially with tired legs. – 10:43 PM

Patrick Beverley just drew an offensive foul on Paul George. And then tried to slap the ball out of George’s hands. George did not appreciated that, but no technicals or anything else.
Bucks up, 13-11, with 6:59 left in the first quarter. Damian Lillard already has 7 points. – 8:21 PM
