Bulls Rock in Cleveland
2008-04-04 20:35:00 Down by 17, the Bulls started to play like everyone expected to play this season. Larry Hughes finally woke up and scored 15 points in the 3rd quarter against his old team and helped them pull within 85-77 entering the fourth quarter. 4th quarters usually belong to Cleveland Cavalier forward LeBron James but bothered by ...

Benny The Bull takes aim
2008-04-03 21:20:00 When I awoke this morning, I was prepared to write about how the Bull s have to find someway to contain LeBron James-he is averaging 38 points against them- but I got an interesting message that told of Bulls mascot Bennie, firing T-shirts out of a cannon at Boston Celtics forwards James Posey and Kevin Garnett. I ... More About: Benny
Tyrus Thomas shines but Bulls fall
2008-04-02 06:34:00 After tonight’s 106-92 loss, thoughts of the second season should be erased off the Bulls mind. The Boston Celtics are close to clinching the #1 spot in the East and securing the best record in the NBA and completer a sweep of the season series. The Bulls did stay close because of the Celtics 20 turnovers, but ... More About: Thomas , Fall
A little Q&A

What more can I say?
2008-04-01 08:40:00 The Boston Celtics visit tomorrow and the Bulls are hopeful to build upon Saturdays win against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Bulls haven’t won a game against the Boston Celtics this season and the last two have been blowouts. The first game the two teams played on December 8 was the only game that was close ...
Draft Watch: Tyler Hansbrough
2008-03-31 06:25:00 I’m sorry I couldn’t see Joakim Noah’s career night of 18 points, 15 rebounds and 4 blocks in the Bulls 114-111 win over the visiting Milwaukee Bucks. I was too busy watching Tyler Hansborough leading the North Carolina Tar Heels to a 83-73 victory of the Louisville Cardinals. Hansbrough numbers were killer, 28 points and ...

Bulls better off not making the playoffs.
2008-03-29 16:25:00 This is a point made by Chris Carson and I wanted to emphasize it. My idea of a post season appearance is you either go deep in the playoffs or you don’t go at all. What’s the point of struggling to make it to the 8th seed if you’re going to get beat anyways? Perhaps ... More About: Playoffs , Chicago Bulls , Bulls , Kirk Hinrich , John Paxson
Chicago makes surge in FOURTH but fall short
2008-03-29 05:51:00 When the score read 81-69 with the Bulls trailing going into the fourth, I’m sure I wasn’t the only one who expected a blowout. Instead the Bulls played well enough in the 4th quarter to make a comeback and came a Ben Gordon three pointer away from tying the game at 106 to send it ...

2008-03-29 01:17:00 Ok so the bulls only have 11 games left. Now is the time to turn on the panic button. These next couple of games will be the Bull ’s last playoff push. If they can’t win these next couple of games, then their 3 year post season appearance streak is over. The following are the upcoming ...

2008-03-28 05:51:00 When the Chicago Bulls (28-43) take the court Friday against the Atlanta Hawks (31-40), They hope to bring their transition defense with them. In Wednesday they were outscored 30-2 in fast break points as the Philadelphia 76ers easily handled the Bulls for a 121-99 victory.Another sloppy defensive game like that and the Hawks could easily put ...

We?re talking playoffs, how silly is that?
2008-03-27 04:49:00 The 103-94 win over the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday was something to smirk about. Drew Gooden gave a 31 point, 16 rebound performance and Jim Boylan dropped the P word again. It sounded good at the time because the Bulls moved themselves only 2 games behind the current 8th spot the Hawks own. The slim hope ... More About: Playoffs , Talking , Silly
Big offseason for Philly too
2008-03-27 00:08:00 The Bulls kept their slim hopes alive with a win last night against the Hawks. But it doesn’t get any easier tonight against the Sixers, one of the hottest teams in the league. Philly is 10-2 in March, and coming off a surprising win in Boston. The Sixers have made a run to the 6th seed in ... More About: Offseason
Bulls facing the rightful 8th seed
2008-03-25 22:33:00 If the Bulls plan on making a run for the 8th seed they better win tonight against the Hawks. The Bulls are trailing Atlanta by three games going into tonight’s game, and they’re also trailing two other teams (Indiana and New Jersey). So, even with a victory tonight it will be tough for the Bulls. The odds ... More About: Seed , Facing
Another early look at the draft
2008-03-25 21:49:00 After Saturday?s 108-101 loss to the Pacers, I don?t think Bulls fans have any other choice but to talk about the draft. After the first weekend of the NCAA tourney, here are the guys I?d like the Bulls to take. Therse aren?t necessarily the best players in the draft, but they are guys who I can ...

The deserving of the 8th seed
2008-03-25 05:57:00 When the Atlanta Hawks visit the Bulls tomorrow, it will show case a team more deserving of the 8th spot in the East. In my years of watching NBA basketball, I can’t remember the Hawks making the playoffs. There have been good player’s, Steve Smith, Shareef Abdur-Rahim, Jason Terry and even Rasheed Wallace for one game. ... More About: Michael Jordan , Chicago Bulls , Joakim Noah
The Love Down Low
2008-03-24 05:52:00 He’s big, he’s skilled and after watching him dominate A&M yesterday, I realized he was more athletic than I thought. Love finished with 19 points, 11 rebounds and 7 blocks. In the final seconds of the game, I found myself yelling at the TV, demanding Darren Collison get the ball to Love. He delivered with ...

How to lose a game in 2 minutes
2008-03-23 05:32:00 35-17. This was the 4th quarter score in tonight’s game against the visiting Indiana Pacers. Familiar story for Bulls fans. After a Drew Gooden lay-up made it 96-97 with the Bulls trailing by one with 2:35, Shawne Williams gave Indiana a 99-96 lead with a three-pointer from the right arc. The Bulls wouldn’t score again ... More About: Game , Minutes
Play the Youngster?s
2008-03-22 05:59:00 When Indiana comes to Chicago tomorrow, they will bring a 3 game winning streak and a budding superstar in forward Danny Granger. Granger’s play this season is slowly making everyone in Indiana forget about Jermaine O’Neal, who might be down to his last couple of years, due to multiple knee injuries. Mike Dunleavy Jr. is ...

What did you expect??a win?
2008-03-21 05:50:00 The Spurs had lost 4 straight coming into Chicago tonight, was there any doubt that they would end that streak? I expected Manu Ginobili to go off tonight but instead, Tony Parker and Tim Duncan carried the offensive load in a game that was really never close. Tony Parker pretty much did what he wanted to do ... More About: Expect
Bulls keep composure in 4th
2008-03-20 02:29:00 The Bulls season…..Where Frustration happens. I didn’t watch the game because the Boston vs Houston game was too much of a draw for me not to watch. It seemed like a Finals game because their was a little tension going into this game, with this being the best team in the league, record-wise and the ...

I?m watching the Celtics-Rockets
2008-03-19 00:47:00 I hope the first half is good, because I’m switching to the Celtics -Rocket game as soon as it comes on. It’s hard getting excited for this playoff “race”, and the Bulls are making it really difficult for themselves. There are plenty of games left in the season, and if the Bulls were good they’d have a ... More About: Watching , Rockets
Paul, Hornets leave Bulls green with envy
2008-03-18 17:59:00 No luck of the Irish here. For the second straight game, the Bulls fell apart in the 4th quarter. In the last 2 games, both losses, the Bulls have been outscored by a combined 73-33. Not exactly a team, that should want a first round date with the Boston Celtics. New Orleans outscored the Bulls ... More About: Green , Leave , Paul , Envy
He?s not big, but I?ll take D.J. Augustin
2008-03-18 00:15:00 In September, the Bulls offered Ben Gordon $50 million, Kirk Hinrich?s 5-year deal was barely a year old and Thabo Sefolosha was set to develop as the team?s ?bigger guard? and hopefully a starter. Luol Deng was working on his post game, so that he could play 2-guard and back down the other team?s smaller ...
Next up, New Orleans
2008-03-17 05:59:00 I saw the point-guard who is probably playing that position the best in the game today. That player was New Orleans Hornets, Chris Paul. The game was against the Detroit Pistons and he wasn’t even supposed to be playing because of a sprained ankle. Even though they lost, 84-105, I was amazed at the leadership and ...
Answer to post problems is in the draft
2008-03-16 02:38:00 It hasn’t been anything new for the Bulls to lose focus in the 4th quarter this season. Yesterday’s loss at the hands of the Philadelphia 76ers was just one of those occurrences. The Bulls held the lead through most of the game but a combination of Rodney Carney hitting three triples in the 4th and ... More About: Answer , Post , Problems , Draft
Philadelphia Dreaming
2008-03-14 17:49:00 If you would have told me at the beginning of the season that the Philadelphia 76ers would be in the playoffs and the Chicago Bulls would be on the outside looking in, than I would have offered to give you a sobriety test. It is true however and the 76ers sit 7th in the East and ... More About: Dreaming
Are the playoffs worth making?
2008-03-09 04:43:00 Sure, it would have been nice if the bulls lived up to the high expectations placed on them this season. They should be right there among the East’s four best teams. Detroit, Orlando, Cleveland and Boston. Boston or Detroit would be the Bulls first round opponent. They have been beaten all three times this season and ... More About: Playoffs , Worth
The worst team on national TV
2008-03-07 01:06:00 First, I want to say that I’m sorry to my four regular readers, also known as my family, for slacking on my posts. It’s not that I haven’t wanted to give you my take on the Bulls or vent my frustrations. It’s just that I’ve been busy. Oh yeah, and I’ve had about zero desire ...

Big Ben returns to Chicago
2008-03-06 22:54:00 What will the reaction be as Ben Wallace makes his return to the United Center? My guess is probably a chorus of booing and statements I won’t make because this is a child friendly blog. There is a lot of hatred amongst Bulls fans toward Wallace, but if you think about it, Can you hold ... More About: Chicago , Cleveland Cavaliers , Chicago Bulls , New York Knicks
Bulls prepare for Grizzlies
