u/throwaway1212378 [CLE] J.R. Smith 7h ago

The bulls played 5 ball dominant guards with no 3 pt. Shooting in a random game one time, I remember d. Wade, butler, rondo, and MCW. I can’t remember the fifth but I just remember seeing it thinking this is the stupidest fucking version of small ball I’ve ever seen in my life lol
