In more ways than one, the Bulls were very hard to watch tonight. First, they simply didn’t play very well.

Bulls at Knicks Preview, A Seeding Conundrum
Since Miami thumped Indiana and looked primed to claim the #1 seed in the East, they laid an egg in Atlanta and Indiana held on to beat OKC. That means the Pacers only need to win in Orlando to take back homecourt for good, and they may not even need that, as Miami could see […]

At Ease Bulls Fans, Tom Thibodeau Won’t Bolt for New York
When the “news” broke that Tom Thibodeau might flee the Chicago Bulls for greener pastures in New York, the first thing I did was laugh.

2013 Free Agency Roundup- Day 1
The 2013 NBA offseason has gotten off to a crazy, albeit hilarious, start this year.

Regular season sweep: Bulls 118, Knicks 111 (OT)
I’m going to miss Nate Robinson. I’m jumping the gun here. I know that. The regular season isn’t even over yet, the playoffs haven’t started, and nobody has any idea what the Bulls are going to look like next season. But what we do know is this: Robinson is a minimum contract player who was […]
Game Recap: Bulls 108, Knicks 101

Game Recap: Bulls 93, Knicks 85
Last night, the Bulls earned their first three-game winning streak of the season. And it was their best win of the season. They did it without Derrick Rose as usual. They did it without the injured Rip Hamilton. They did on the second night of back-to-back games which also happened to be their fourth game […]
