In a way, this felt like the first time we’ve actually seen the Bulls all season. Their offense hasn’t been this easy on the eyes in eons (per Basketball Reference, the wacky 2011-2012 lockout season is the only year Chicago has had a top ten offense in the Post-Jordan Era), but the Bulls under Tom […]

Bulls Zone 79- Early Season Hardware
Jimmy Butler’s play has earned him the “MVP Candidate” amongst Bulls fans, here what we have to say. Also, Rose can’t play with the flu? Will Niko win Rookie of the Year, and is it time to think about moving Taj? For more on The Bulls Zone check them out at ChiBullsZone or follow them […]
Why won’t the Chicago Bulls use the D-League?
It was fully 16 and a half months ago that I called for the Chicago Bulls to get themselves their own NBA D-League team. It was August 2013, still two months before Derrick Rose would return after tearing his ACL and about three and a half months before he would tear his meniscus in Portland. […]
Bulls Come Up Short In Atlanta, Fall 93-86
At the end of the year, certain nights of the 82 game slog stand out, whether it be because of a great victory, a painful loss, or, as the Bulls have experienced far too often over the years, an injury. Tonight, however, was not one of those nights. Chicago blew many chances to steal this […]
Bulls at Hawks Preview
Tonight marks the first meeting between the Bulls and Hawks since Jimmy Butler hit a game-winning three in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals, leading Stacey King to call him “Jimmy Jordan.” The Bulls advanced to the Finals and… oh, whoops, that was just a preseason game. Funny thing is, at this point in […]

K.C. Johnson, Bulls insider for the Chicago Tribune, joins us to discuss Thibs love for Kirk, puts to rest any beef between Thibs and Rose, and talks about Tom’s decision making as the coach. We also hit K.C. up for some trade rumors. For more on The Bulls Zone check them out at ChiBullsZone or […]
Bulls Suffer Dispiriting Loss At Home To Surging Warriors
Just looking at the final score, a 112-102 loss to the team with the best point differential, road record and overall record in the league shouldn’t be too deflating, but that’s how it felt, with the team confirming as much after the game: Bulls locker room still closed 20 minutes after buzzer. Guessing the D and […]
They Love Him, They Love Him Not
For someone who the world wishes would just stop talking, people sure listen when Derrick Rose speaks. He caused a stir with his recent comments about saving his body. As a refresher: “I feel I’ve been managing myself pretty good. I know a lot of people get mad when they see me sit out. But […]
Chicago Bulls Close Circus Trip With Commanding 102-84 Win over Brooklyn Nets
Coming to the end of a road trip that has seen injury troubles aplenty and some disappointing performances, the Chicago Bulls shrugged off the continued absence of Taj Gibson and first-half turnover problems to lay a second-half beatdown on the Brooklyn Nets, 102-84. Derrick Rose struggled for much of the game, but found his stride […]
Bulls Survive Utah Comeback, Avoid Collapse In Rose’s Return
On the circus road trip, any win is a good win. That, along with no one getting injured, cushions the embarrassment and frustration of the Bulls blowing a 21 point lead that peaked midway through the second quarter after back-to-back buckets from Tony Snell. The offense lost its rhythm and the absence of Taj Gibson was […]
