This week Theus and Ahmad are joined by Will Guillory; New Orleans Pelicans beat writer of The Athletic, to discuss the tip-off of the 75th NBA season and the state of the Pelicans. When it comes down to clutch time who takes the last shot? Do you prioritize your best player even if they're having a rough game? Why didn't the Pelicans pay Lonzo Ball? Did they make a mistake and is Zion Williamson the number one option over Brandon Ingram? What will Zion have to do to join the elite group of young talent in the NBA? How special is Nickeil Alexander-Walker? Does he have the upside to win MIP? Who are some of the big names they can make a trade for with all the assets they have?

On today's episode, Matt and Big Dave break down the Bulls season opening 94-88 victory over the Detroit Pistons. The Bulls survived an ugly first half and a tough shooting night thanks to their defense and a star performance from Zach LaVine, who finished with 34 points including 11-11 from the free throw line. Should we be concerned with the quiet game from Patrick Williams? What about Lonzo Ball's uneven debut? What did we think of Billy Donovan's first regular season game rotation? And shoutout to the rookie, Ayo Dosunmu, for making a big impact in his first NBA game.

Bulls at Pistons Reaction

On today's episode, Matt and Big Dave discuss what they'd like to see in the Bulls season opener against the Detroit Pistons and wonder if the team can be contenders without a true superstar. The Bulls won't have to deal with Cade Cunningham tonight, but the Pistons still have weapons. Can the Bulls defense continue to show the focus and aggression they displayed in preseason? Who will Billy Donovan look to to set the tone offensively, and what will we see from Lonzo Ball tonight? The guys also talk about a recent Sports Illustrated column by Chris Herring, who thinks the Bulls might be the next Hawks or Suns team to surprise people with a playoff run. But can they do it without a superstar?

On today's episode, Matt and Big Dave offer their thoughts from the Bulls preseason finale against the Memphis Grizzlies and the final roster cuts made over the weekend. Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso continued to impress on defense, but Zach LaVine is still getting caught ball-watching on the weak side. And just how bad is DeMar DeRozan's defense? Well, we got a glimpse on Friday. Still, there were plenty of positives from the game, like Nikola Vucevic's efficient scoring night and a spirited 4th quarter comeback from the second unit. The guys wrap the show with a few thoughts on Stanley Johnson getting cut and Matt Thomas appearing to make the final 15.

On today's episode, Matt and Big Dave offer their biggest takeaways from the Bulls preseason debut, a clinical beatdown of the Cleveland Cavaliers. The offensive pressure is off of Zach LaVine. Lonzo Ball ran the offense beautifully. DeMar DeRozan did his thing in the midrange, and even played solid defense. Alex Caruso did it all in his 20 minutes off the bench. Shoutout Javonte Green for a heck of a performance in a surprise start. The Bulls defense may not be as bad as the "experts" feared, as they scored 26 points off of 22 Cavs turnovers. This team is going to be lots of fun to watch! Wow.
