It was great to see D Wade come out of the box strong against the Celts with 22 points ,6 boards and 5 assists in 32 minutes. Was solid from 3 point range as well. Would really like to see him do well this year for the Bulls.
I know Jimmy is in the prime of his career but D Wade is still the gold standard as far as ex MU players out there.

222 points? Eat your heart out Wilt Chamberlain.

correction noted. thanks.
Still don't like the fit of the team. Rondo, Wade, Butler and MCW started 9-13 from 3s. I just don't see even mediocre shooting from those guys going forward.

Destroyed Indiana without Wade, Butler or Rondo making a 3. Ball hawks on D and running the floor. I was dreading it too but it's sure looked good so far.

Really, just any team without Derrick Rose on the roster is a vast improvement over last year. Biggest surprise to me is the lack of minutes to Bobby Portis.
through the first couple games he is averaging
18.8 ppg (44th in the league)
3.5 apg ( 8th in league for shooting guards )
5.5 rpg (4th among shooting guards, right behind jimmy)

He had a great autobiography that is worth reading.

Like you, Keefe, I am sure Wilt was big on hyperbole.
