Stung on Opening Night - a podcast by Blue Wire

Cash Considerations is back to discuss the Bulls' season opener against the Hornets. While the Bulls entered the season with some hype, they suffered a disappointing 126-125 loss to a Hornets team expected to finish toward the bottom of the East. Jason and Ricky discuss the awful defense and fourth-quarter collapse that helped make this defeat happen, as well as the poor performance of Zach LaVine. On a positive note, Lauri Markkanen looked dominant, and the Bulls got strong showings from bench players Coby White, Thaddeus Young and Kris Dunn. It's a long season, and the Bulls need to bounce back after this unacceptable loss.
