Pacers can’t string together any sort of success toight. Looking a little slow as a team. They finally had some offense success to open this quarter, but now they can’t get any stops. Currently down 7. – 8:44 PM

27-23 Bulls after one quarter. Pacers struggling to get going on offense and have just two frontcourt points tonight. They are still in the game, though.
6 for Haliburton, 8 for Dosunmu so far. – 8:36 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Pacers lead the NBA with 123.3 points per game. Bulls held them to 23 points on 34.8% percent shooting in the 1st quarter. – 8:35 PM

Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
The Pacers might be the best matchup for the Bulls of the other 8 teams in front of them. This might be the only team they can beat in a win-or-go-home game. – 8:34 PM

Tony East @TonyREast
Caruso drops Ben Sheppard and scores. Bulls up 19-17. Both teams struggling to get shots to drop. – 8:28 PM

Tony East @TonyREast
Andrew Nembhard gets the DeRozan assignment to start this game. Nembhard also has the Pacers first five points. – 8:13 PM

Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
Since stats by half were first tracked (1996-97) two #Nets have 24+ points and six or more assists in a first half: Deron Williams (25 & eight back at Indiana in 2012) and Cam Thomas tonight with 24 points, six assists despite a bad back. – 8:12 PM

Mike McGraw @McGrawDHSports
Feels like #Bulls are wearing down as season drags toward a close, with all the injuries and minutes piled on the five main guys. But they can clinch season series against Indiana, potential play-in opponent, with win tonight. – 7:40 PM

Tony East @TonyREast
Rick Carlisle expects that Aaron Nesmith and T.J. McConnell will both play tonight, but not a certainty. – 6:52 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Billy Donovan said Patrick Williams, Lonzo Ball and Zach LaVine could be at Hawks game on Monday and around team rest of season as they continue rehab here. LaVine is TBD because of recent addition to family, could be a bit later. – 6:22 PM

Orlando chegou 💜 congrats to Orlando City for ten years in MLS and a big thank you to the best PR staff in the league for sending this package along to Chicago.
Grateful to document a little piece of the club’s history and can’t wait to watch both teams this season! pic.twitter.com/Ard8N6G6GC – 6:01 PM
