Chicago Bulls 86, Charlotte Bobcats 81: What did we learn last night?
Defense is a funny thing. We’re told it wins championships, but in the interim it typically drags the watchability of any given game down into the gutter and beats it about the head and shoulders for a couple hours. Such was the case last night. Yes, the Chicago Bulls beat the Charlotte Bobcats, but […]

Chicago Bulls 96, Toronto Raptors 80: What did we learn last night?
The Chicago Bulls are officially over .500 on the season! They’ve won three straight games by double-digits after beating the Toronto Raptors and everything is great! No, we’re not overcompensating for our depression at the thought of Derrick Rose being hurt, why do you ask? Anyway, Rose was out but it didn’t seem to […]
Derrick Rose and the question of pace for the Chicago Bulls
We’re six games into the NBA season. Derrick Rose has a player efficiency rating of 6.7, which is — charitably — not good. The Chicago Bulls as a team are shooting a sparking 26.3 percent from three point land, with Luol Deng coming in at a delightful 5.6 percent from downtown. No, that is not […]
Luol Deng is Looking to Test Free Agency

First reported by Aggrey Sam of CSN Chicago, Luol Deng’s agent, Herb Rudoy, that Deng will be testing the free agent waters next offseason and that any contract extension discussions are tabled until the conclusion of the […]
