I’ll admit it. I couldn’t even motivate myself to watch the Memphis Grizzlies’ game last night.  I figured I’d feel better watching the Winthrop-Arkansas Pine Bluff play-in game knowing that none of those players would ever play for my favorite pro team.  I refuse to call it a Chicago Bulls game because Senator, I cheered [...]

I love Stacey King.  At first he was just a few scattered catchphrases with very little real analysis, and that was fine.  He wasn’t great, and his rapport with Neil Funk was fractured at best.  He has come a long way from those days though.  In just two short years he has developed a repertoire [...]

When Derrick Rose suffered his second injury this season at the hands of Dwight Howard in last night’s 111-82 loss to the Orlando Magic it became painfully obvious (emphasis on ‘pain’) that the Bulls’ playoff hopes are slipping away fast.  If the Bulls were to somehow make it into the playoffs [...]

I’m not going to sugarcoat it folks. The Bulls don’t look good. Most of their average or above-average defenders are injured, and now they are allowing teams to put up point totals usually reserved for Madison Square Garden. Here’s some NBA links to ease the sting of our slide out of the 8th seed:

Before there [...]

Without Noah, the Bulls are possibly the worst rebounding team I’ve ever had to watch (obviously that’s an exaggeration, but it sure feels like it).  Ironically enough, he’s making a great case for himself as the Bulls MVP this season from the bench, as the team looks like it won’t win a single game in [...]

The Bulls are sliding quickly and pitifully, but that doesn’t mean the entertainment at Bulls games is lacking.  Remember how excited I was about a flash mob and an umbrella at the last game I went to?  This blows it way out of the water.  Just a warning, this is slightly NSFW (if you consider [...]

Last night’s Bulls game was definitely interesting even if the Bulls choked big time in the second half.  First we were unexpectedly escorted to a VIP parking lot for Lexus’s (my dad gave us a ride in his Lexus).  Then the giveaway for the night was a sweet Bulls umbrella.  The strange yet satisfying nature [...]

When my hometown Chicago Bulls drafted Joakim Noah ninth overall that summer night back in 2006, I yelled and cursed at the television. When Noah was a Florida Gator, he was one of my least favorite college basketball players of all time. And he did a lot [...]

I love Scottie Pippen.  I mean love him.  And it’s not just because he was a member of the Beatles, wrestled a midget, and went balls deep on The Cleveland Show.  He is possibly the most underrated player in NBA history.  Everyone talks about how Michael made Scottie, but true Chicago fans know that went [...]

Thanks to the Chicago Tribune photographers for snapping this classic photo.  According to my brother who was at the game, this photo followed a romantic kneeling proposal from Benny.  I wonder what their kids will look like…

You’d think that being drafted in the first round of the 2009 NBA draft, starting for your team for almost half of the season, and getting selected to play in the Rookies-Sophomores game during All-Star Weekend would ensure that someone at ESPN would have a photo of you. Sorry Taj Gibson, those 20 points you [...]

On Thursday afternoon around 4:30 PM CST, Bulls GM Gar Forman spoke with the press regarding the Bulls’ trades and their roster moving forward for the rest of the 2009-2010 season.  He indicated that the entire staff would be meeting today to review their scouting plan and joked with KC Johnson that he had an [...]

If you’re confused or can’t keep up with the moves the Bulls made over the last 48 hours, don’t worry, you’re not alone.
As of 5:00 PM (CST) the NBA.com website showed the Chicago Bulls roster/depth chart with Francisco Elson and Kurt Thomas occupying two spots on the bench. Oddly enough, neither Tyrus Thomas or John [...]

Contrary to what was widely reported last night as a John Salmons for Kurt Thomas and Francisco Elson trade, the Bucks and their neverending supply of expiring contracts will now deal Joe Alexander and Hakim Warrick ($5.53 mil combined) for the services of Mr. Salmons ($5.45 mil this year with the option of $5.80 mil [...]

Hopefully this isn’t the last we’ve heard from the Bulls before tomorrow’s 3pm est deadline, but it’s good news.  A few media outlets are reporting that the Bulls have made a deal with the Bucks:
The Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks have agreed to a deal in principle that will send John Salmons to the Bucks for the expiring [...]
