An NBA season is made up of matches, guys who watch them and talk about them, but also guys who watch them and rate them. Probable revenge after a youth spent collecting zeros, and a perfect opportunity in any case to let go of the punchline by the kilo. Once again this season, Team Notes will delight you with its unfailing imagination, while still trying to talk a little bit about basketball. Chick?
We continue with decimated Bulls heading to Memphis in full force. Obviously, the Bears are above the Bulls on the food chain, as the former have literally eaten the latter. Tony Bradley wanted to play the heroes by going chestnut Ja Morant, but Steven Adams was watching the grain to move the naughty youngster. Immediately the notes.
# Memphis Grizzlies
Steven Adams (5,5) : if the Earth were populated by 7 billion Steven Adams, we would be really bored, but at least we would have peace in the world. Just look how he moved Tony Bradley like a sack of dirty laundry when the latter came to confuse Ja Morant.
Years Jackson Jr. (7) : we freaked out when we saw his leg hit a breakdance step, but the triple J finally got back to business to disgust the Bulls with his counters. Here is one who is against bullfighting.
Ziaire Williams (3) : his shoot had obviously gone on vacation tonight, and since we have no news, we imagine that it was in the Bermuda Triangle.
Desmond Bane (7,5) : what is strong about this player is that he manages to have such a silky shot by having planted anvils in his triceps. Another dirty game from Ja’s true lieutenant this season.
Ja Morant (7.5): tell me, isn’t this teenage crisis for Ja Morant a bit long? Never the last to provoke his opponents, nor to boast after a high-flying action. Quickly bring Pascal the big brother back to him.
Kyle Anderson (4,5) : we don’t tell you anything by saying that Kyle Anderson is probably the guy who drives at 70 on a road at 90, and walks slowly taking up all the space on the sidewalk. You may be nice, but you’re boring Kyle.
Brandon Clarke (67) : a match where you don’t see Brandon Clarke shooting is necessarily a good match. Extremely clean and always ready to do the dirty work quietly. An Uber driver in a Tesla.
Tyus Jones (6) : he improves his teammates.
John Konchar (6) : a big poster to conclude his good little match, what could be more normal for a guy with the blaze of house building material?
De’Anthony Melton (6) : it’s 2022, and the apostrophes in the middle of first names are still a mystery. Good match nevertheless, because it is necessary to speak a little basketball.
# Chicago Bulls
Nikola Vucevic (3) : since we haven’t seen him in the game, his wife will think he’s cheating on him. A very difficult match for Vooch, who will have to give accounts when he returns to the marital home.
Alfonzo McKinnie (3) : if Karim Benzema was a Bulls player, he would have referred to Alfonzo McKinnie as the “he plays against us brother” of this team.
DeMar DeRozan (6,5) : well muzzled by the opposing defense, DMDR was the youngest of the Grizzlies in this match. He certainly scored his points, but timidly, like a child when there are guests at his house. Makes sense for a player who still has acne.
Come on your Dosun (6) : it is not enough to look like Cetelem to make Cetelem. Ayo Dosunmu learned this the hard way. He actually looks like Ja Morant physically, but despite his good game, it’s not the same basketball level. See you tomorrow for new analyses.
Coby White (5,5) : Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso being absent at the Bulls, it was Coby White who had the keys to the truck, from two conductors, we went to someone who can score his shots but who directs the game “at the ‘help of his knowledge’, the change is radical.
Malcolm Hill (5) : he’s not bad, but he doesn’t even have his picture on the NBA website, it’s quite disturbing.
Matt Thomas (5) : it can be seen that he zapped the physical customization of his player on 2K. Too many jobs possible for one man, and his is not the one you think of first.
Troy Brown Jr. (5) : took advantage of garbage time to show off, like all substitutes in the end, the shy student who is forced to go to the blackboard “to overcome his shyness”.
Tony Bradley (3) : when you come to basketball courts just for the purpose of breaking snags, it’s either that you’re 48 or you suck, Tony Bradley is 24, CQFD.
The Grizzlies are not kidding, the NBA is warned, and even if the Bulls were decimated, it’s still a victory to go for. The important thing was the 3 points as they say in the jargon.
