The Chicago Bulls have too many options to count in the draft and free agency. Here are some of them.

2012-2013 Player Capsule- Jimmy Butler
The Chicago Bulls 2012-2013 campaign has officially come to a close. Now that we are weeks removed from the end of the season and have had time to be reflective, it’s time to take a look back at the performances of the members of this Bulls squad and brief look ahead at the future. The […]
Alonzo Mourning sounds off on the LeBron versus MJ debate
Former Heat player Alonzo Mourning was speaking to group of people at the opening of a Microsoft store in Miami when he was asked to comment on the endlessly spinning LeBron James versus Michael Jordan debate. Instead of taking a pass — probably the smartest move he could have made — Mourning said: “You know, […]
Game 5 Recap: Bulls fight to the bitter end
The Bulls went into their do-or-die Game 5 in the Miami both with and without the usual cast of characters. Derrick Rose missed the game and by extension missed the entire season, leading at least one writer to describe his much hyped “Return” packaged by Adidas as a hoax. On top of that melodrama, Kirk […]
Game 5: Bulls-Heat Preview
In pretty much a must-win game, Chicago put in its worst performance of the year, as well as one of the worst postseason games in the franchise’s history. Now they find themselves in a true must-win situation, facing elimination as they hit the road. You can’t blame the Bulls too much, I guess, considering the […]
Rapid Reaction Game 4: Heat 88, Bulls 65
MVP (Most Valuable Player): LeBron James did what an MVP does. He recorded 27 points (9-20), seven rebounds, eight assists and two steals. The Bulls as a team recorded just 12 assists, although Chicago only had 19 baskets—so not many chances to get an assist. LVP (Least Valuable Player): No one player earned this. It […]
Game 4 Preview: Heat-Bulls
On the defensive side of the ball, Chicago forced the Heat into exactly what they wanted: midrange jumpers in Game 3. The only problem is, Miami didn’t get the memo that they were supposed to miss those shots—or at least not all of Miami did. Tom Thibodeau’s game plan worked against LeBron James, who went […]
Quick Reaction: Heat 104, Bulls 94
MVP (Most Valuable Player): In a game where LeBron James (6-17 field goals) didn’t shoot great and Dwyane Wade (ten points) disappeared for stretches, Chris Bosh picked up the slack. He had an enormous double-double with 20 points, 19 rebounds and added two blocks and four assists for good measure. LVP (Least Valuable Player): Carlos […]
Game 3 Preview: Heat-Bulls
Hold on one second, I’m still adding up all the fouls from last game. 51 personal fouls, nine technicals, two ejections and one flagrant. According to my math that adds up to…one lopsided victory. Lots of people said this is what “playoff basketball” is all about, but it’s a stretch to say that what the […]
Quick Reaction: Heat 115, Bulls 78 (Game 2)
MVP (Most Valuable Player): LeBron James pretty efficiently sliced the Bulls defense, scoring 19 points on 7-12 from the field, and also posted five rebounds and nine assists. He did this all in 32 minutes. Unlike in Game 1 where LeBron was content to facilitate early, the MVP was attacking from the start Wednesday night. […]
