Just two days after a marathon triple-overtime, it would’ve been fair to expect the Chicago Bulls to come out flat in what would be a 96-93 loss to the Washington Wizards. Instead, led by Jimmy Butler — he of the franchise record 60:20 played in Orlando — the Bulls posted one of their better offensive […]
Late in the first overtime period against the Orlando Magic, things looked grim for the Chicago Bulls. They were down by three and were struggling to execute properly, resulting in turnovers that could have allowed the Magic to seal the deal. Instead, they got another chance at it, still trailing by three with 15 seconds […]
Before the Chicago Bulls won a marathon triple-overtime game against the Orlando Magic, 128-125, I stated on Twitter that it would qualify as a minor miracle if either team cracked 90 points. I was basing that prediction on the last meeting between these teams, an 83-82 barn burner in Chicago, and on the absence of […]

Well kids, that’s why you shouldn’t believe in momentum. As noted in the game preview, Washington was just 2-5 since New Year’s, with their wins coming over two teams in a heap of trouble at the moment, while Chicago was the only team still unbeaten in 2014. Those things were irrelevant in tonight’s 102-88 loss […]
In what qualifies as a showdown in this year’s Eastern Conference, the 17-18 Bulls, holders of the 5 seed and, along with Denver, the league’s best winning streak having won five in a row, host the 16-19 Wizards, currently the 6 seed. The defense-centric Bulls (second in defensive rating, second to last in offensive rating) […]

Tom Thibodeau sees your cries for tanking. He is unimpressed. Now, to be fair, the Chicago Bulls were always going to beat the Milwaukee Bucks. The Bucks are now 7-28, good for worst in the NBA. But after the 81-72 win, Thibs clarified his position on winning. Literally the definition of #ThibsBall RT @NickFriedell: Thibs […]
