There’s been a lot of offseason bickering about whether or not Jimmy Butler can be the alpha dog you build a team around. Many fans believe that Butler is, at best, a B-player and the Bulls need to pursue an alpha dog. Some fans even believe that Derrick Rose is still that alpha dog after […]

I used to love watching “The A-Team.” Every episode, the bad guys would inevitably get the upper hand and the A-Team would be trapped and Mr. T would ask, “What’s the plan, Hannibal?” Hannibal Smith would think of something on the fly, the team would create a ridiculous contraption made out of spare parts […]

You have no idea how badly I wanted to use this image as the main image for this article, but I didn’t. I’m not here to be a Kirk “hater” or to complain about how bad he has been for this team. I’m here to examine a legitimate question: Should Kirk Hinrich’s jersey be hanging […]

Four games ago, Chicago Bulls head coach, Fred Hoiberg, instituted a minor change to the Bulls starting lineup: He would start Chicago’s resident hard hat and lunch pail guru, Taj Gibson, over young and promising power forward, Nikola Mirotic. The move was met with applause as there were many doubts as to whether a Mirotic/Gasol […]

The Bulls have suffered two frustrating losses at home and are a mere 2-3 in their last 5. Fans are abuzz and frustrated with this team. I wrote about them a few weeks ago calling them the unbearabulls and voiced many of the same frustrations. Last night against Phoenix, the Bulls carried a double digit lead […]

You’ve seen this clip a million times: Nick Anderson stole the ball from a rusty Michael Jordan wearing #45. Nick Anderson told reporters after the game: “No. 45 doesn’t explode like No. 23 used to. No. 45 is not No. 23. I couldn’t have done that to No. 23.” The very next game, Michael Jordan […]

Bulls (4-2) 104 Thunder (3-3) 98 The Bulls needed this win after the horrid 130-105 blowout to the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday night, but it was a little scary at first.

The Bulls were dismantled last night and as each game passes, the glaring weaknesses of this roster become more and more evident. The Bulls have problems. Big problems.

The Chicago Bulls opened the 1995-96 season with a 101-95 win over the Charlotte Hornets in the United Center. At times the Bulls looked bored against the short handed Hornets who, earlier that day, had traded franchise center […]

Bulls (1-0): 97 Cavs (0-1): 95 In the year in which defense would be the question mark, and offense was going to lead this newly lead Bulls teams to victories, it was in fact the defense that came through for the Bulls in the final 10 seconds of their Tuesday season opener. With Chicago […]
