Chicago 92, San Antonio 85

Six players in double figures and one player with nine. That describes the offensive balance the Bulls displayed against the Spurs tonight. The Bulls, who remind me of a younger version of the Portland TrailBlazers (is that possible?), are chock full of rising stars in each position. On Thursday night, Chicago showed how to use depth wisely and were just too much for the Spurs. This depth played a huge role defensively as well as the Bulls’ swarming defense allowed only Tim Duncan to score more than 12 points (Duncan: 28pts. 16rebs.).

What I liked about this game:

I was in love with Chicago’s unselfish play. They never hesitated to make that extra pass and find the open man.

What I disliked about this game:

Manu Ginobili’s bald spot. C’mon man. We already know your squad is old, but you have to do something with that. Shave it perhaps??
