Your surprisingly deep Chicago Bulls will get a chance to build on a pretty great win (third quarter hiccup notwithstanding) against the Indiana Pacers Wednesday with another tanking team, the San Antonio Spurs, tonight at their soon-to-be-rechristened arena.
San Antonio is off to a better-than-intended 3-2 start this season, identical to Chicago’s record, but the Spurs are hardly trying to win, and lack the depth or experience of this chippy Chicago roster.
Gregg Popovich’s club will be without one of its two top scorers tonight, 6’5” starting shooting guard Devin Vassell, who has been sitting since Wednesday with a sore left knee.
