Chicago quickly destroyed all the good it did at the start - after the first five wins, the Bulls lost five of the next six games.
Last night they were defeated for the fourth time in a row, by the great Detroit, who won without their entire starting five, 124:113.
Our Nikola Vučević also played a modest match, recording six points and six rebounds, as well as three assists, in 25 and a half minutes on the court, while shooting 4-0 three-pointers.
The Pistons, who played without Cade Cunningham, Jalen Duran, Tobias Harris, Uzar Thompson and Jayden Ivey, were led to victory by Paul Reed with 26 points, 13 rebounds and six assists.
The Bulls were also weakened by Josh Giddy's absence, and Matas Buzelis was the best player in this match with 21 points.
The new NBA night once again showed why Nikola Jokić and Steph Curry are basketball legends.
The Maestro from Sombor led Denver to a triumph over the LA Clippers (130:116) with 55 points, while the best three-pointer of all time with 46 points brought Golden State victory against San Antonio (125:120).
The Nuggets center also had 12 rebounds and six assists, and it was clear from the start of the game that it was his night as he scored 25 of his team's 39 points in the first quarter. He added eight points in the second and 19 in the third, so he deservedly rested on the bench for most of the final quarter.
Denver's second most efficient player in the match was Aaron Gordon with 18 points and five rebounds, while Jamal Murray scored 15 points.
The most efficient players for the Los Angeles team were James Harden with 23 points, Jordan Miller with 22 and Ivica Zubac with 18 points and nine rebounds.
Victor Vembanyama is on a great path to becoming one of the greats of basketball, he showed it last night with a triple-double, but this time he had to watch how the icon of this league decides big matches - Curry added five rebounds and five assists along with 46 points.
Maybe Steph's 7,24 field goal percentage wasn't his style (16-5), but he scored 22 points in the third quarter alone, hitting five three-pointers out of nine attempts and being flawless from the free throw line (9-9).
Jimmy Butler added 28 points, eight assists and six rebounds for the winning team, while on the other side, two players achieved triple-doubles, the first time in Spurs history in the same game.
Vembanjama had 31 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists, and Stefon Castle had 23 points, 10 steals and 10 assists.
The champion reached a score of 12-1, making it the best team at the start of the new season - Oklahoma recorded another triumph against the Los Angeles Lakers 121:92.
As expected, the Thunder were led by Shai Gilges-Alexander with 30 points, nine assists and five rebounds, while Isaiah Joe added 14 points and Ajayi Mitchell had 14 points.
For the Lakers, Luka Dončić was the most efficient with 19 points, seven rebounds and seven assists.
