Zach Lavine could really contribute well in the game today if it's not because of his knee injury that he committed an intentional foul to exit the game formally. He really need to rest and come back quick because the Bulls needs his instincts and assists.
But the Warriors did really bounced back after they lost twice in a row, I highly commend their bench players because this team is one of the perfect examples as they didn't rely on their starplayers. Kuminga, Poole and Wiggins really drilled some scores there and buried the Bulls as they made 41 points in the 2nd quarter alone.
Absolutely, Kuminga really needs more match time. He was on top of his form. I can say that the bench players saved the Golden State Warriors against The Bulls this time. But I am eager to see what happens when Draymond Green returns from injury and Stephen Curry gets his form right. Having this kind of backup from the bench players, I think the Golden State Warriors are looking at the championship this time.
Bulls at a place where every player matters nowadays. So I doubt that they could be doing something that doesn't really change when one player leaves. Derozan, lonzo, lavine, caruso, vucevic, all of them matters a lot for the team. You miss one of them and suddenly the whole system would not be as good.
I am not saying that they would become a terrible team, but they would not be as good as they are right now. Lavine is definitely needed for them. I am still shocked that they are as good as they are right now, I definitely did not expected them to be this good, I expected them to be a better of course but not as good as they are right now.
The bulls had their 5th loss this season. Even they were on the lead of 20 points against The Trail Brazzers. I think that it was their worst loss this season. They even got a good start, 10-4 lead. But they could keep it up till the last moment. Bulls learned in a hard way that in a pro game like this, they need to keep up the play till the last moment. The bulls now have a perfect form. Every player is in the good shape. With DeMar DeRozan, Nikola Vucevic, and others, they have a really strong lineup. All they need to do is shake it off and give their all in the next matches. I think they are the team to dominate.
