What’s the buzz on Twitter?

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Bulls have the NBA’s top-ranked defense since Jan. 1, a span of 24 games. Some reasons why are they’ve limited second-chance points and points off TOs.
Not today. Wizards up to 15 second-chance points, 17 off TOs – 5:12 PM

A couple of Chicago guys going at each other. Patrick Beverley with a big iso block on Kendrick Nunn. Nunn pats Beverley on the chest in a nod of respect. pic.twitter.com/aEnV3Atwgr5:11 PM

Some Pat Bev energy on that block and stare down. – 5:09 PM

Beal just tripped Pat Bev and could have picked up a second T. – 5:06 PM
Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
Billy Donovan knows the numbers scream for the Bulls to tank rather than try and fight for a playoff spot, but numbers be damned as far as the organization was concerned.

Chase Hughes @ChaseHughesNBCS
The Wizards trail the Bulls 47-45 at halftime. LaVine (17 pts) and DeRozan (15 pts) have been tough, but Wiz need to clean up the turnovers (9) more than anything. – 4:36 PM

DeMar DeRozan certainly sold that offensive foul on Deni Avdija who didn’t extend his elbow as much as official Simone Jelks demonstrated on the call
Deni on the bench with 2 first quarter PFs asking how that is a foul as buddy Kristaps Porzingis probably tells him that’s enough – 4:08 PM
Washington Wizards @WashWizards
up 2 after 1 ⬆

Ava Wallace @avarwallace
After one, the Wiz are up 27-25 on the Bulls. Good effort balancing out 6 turnovers early.
Gafford: 8p
Beal: 7p – 4:08 PM
Chase Hughes @ChaseHughesNBCS
It’s 27-25 Wizards over the Bulls after one. Wiz leading despite 6 TOs and zero FTAs. – 4:07 PM
Mike McGraw @McGrawDHSports
Who wants that play-in spot more? After 1stQ, Wizards lead #Bulls 27-25. Daniel Gafford having his usual revenge game with 8 pts, LaVine has 11. – 4:07 PM
Josh Robbins @JoshuaBRobbins
This is Game 60 for the Wizards, but they seem to be playing with a bit of desperation in today’s first quarter. They’ve chased down loose basketballs and dived to the floor, and Jordan Goodwin and Daniel Gafford have collected high-impact offensive rebounds. – 4:04 PM
Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
Bulls honor Pam Kunkel during timeout. Just the kindest person to ever work for the organization. – 4:03 PM
Chicago Bulls @chicagobulls
Good luck guarding Zach 1-on-1.

Ava Wallace @avarwallace
Jordan Goodwin checked in for the first time since signing his standard nba deal, subbed for Deni Avdija. Looked like Avdija got swiped on the neck/head area going for a loose ball before coming out – 3:58 PM
Kevin Pelton @kpelton
Now that the transition take foul exists, there’s all the more reason for the NBA to instruct referees to stop play when a player is down on the court in pain. The Wizards got tagged with a transition take foul in that situation against Chicago. – 3:58 PM
Neil Dalal @NeilDalal96
Looks like Deni Avdija took a shot from Zach LaVine’s forearm to the temple head area, but he looks like he will be ok (checking out, but probably normal spot). – 3:58 PM
Bill Simmons @BillSimmons
2017-18 Lakers: just a bizarre Basketball Reference team.
Brook Lopez, Randle, Ingram, Clarkson, Kuzma, Caruso, Josh Hart, Nance Jr., healthy Lonzo and Caldwell-Pope, plus cameos from Isaiah Thomas, Thomas Bryant + GPII. That’s a good team now!

Nets trail Hawks, 37-28, after Q1. Much better offense than the blowout in Chicago, but Brooklyn having trouble matching high powered Atlanta offense. – 3:38 PM
