Brendan Vogt

It's across the board, the season-high stuff, and the scoring's there, and it all looks better.

The three-point shooting's up.

Seven and a half assists per game this year.

He's been up in double digits a ton.

He tied his career high in assists, and then the next time out set a new career high in assists.

He's just setting his teammates up, and they do have more capable shooters around him than they used to before, but Murray's just playing great basketball right now, and it's been the case most of this season.

If you did miss it at the top of the show, David Adelman told Katie Wenge and the traveling media that he's confident Jamal is okay.

It's a lot more of an optimistic framing than some of his pressers after some of these injuries.

And Jamal walked out under his own power, so we'll keep an eye on it.

But hopefully, fingers crossed, it did not look as serious as some of these other injuries.

There's no doubt about it.

I mean, Peyton and AG are their best athletes, right?

Spencer, too, the way he covers ground, they don't have a lot of young guys who can just burn through their fuel like that the way he can.

So it absolutely made a difference tonight.

Unfortunately, sometimes even when he's healthy, small guards can be tough for Aaron, too, because he's just so big.

Yeah.

Small guards have been a weakness for this team for a long time, and they still are.

I mean, I thought in the last few games, we've seen Bruce Brown apply some ball pressure.

That's been a sight for sore eyes, I thought.

Christian a little bit here and there, but for the most part, there was an irony to whatever the version of this Bulls team they landed on.
