20-0 4th quarter run saves Bulls from embarrassing defeat

Okay, I suppose no defeat is that embarrassing if Derrick Rose is sitting. The Bulls simply aren't a great team without Rose and will likely lose a couple games to teams they'd normally slaughter if he were playing. On top of that, good teams drop games to bad ones all here and there regardless. Still, when the bulls fell behind for the majority of the game, it was hard to watch... Read more »

John Lucas does his Derrick Rose impression in Bulls win over Heat

John Lucas does his Derrick Rose impression in Bulls win over Heat
The best thing about the Bulls victory over the Heat is that there was no choke by Miami. There was no gaffe. There was no holding back. By the end of the game every trick they've tried on Derrick Rose was used on John Lucas; double team 40 feet from the basket, trap on the pick and roll, and even LeBron taking the assignment. The Heat couldn't stop John Lucas who played the best game of his life, and the Bulls went on to win... Read more »

Derrick Rose step back buzzer beater for the win!

Derrick Rose step back buzzer beater for the win!
It was a shot to be proud of but not a win to be proud of. Derrick Rose dropped 30 on the Bucks including the buzzer beater to win the game while coming up just two boards shy of a triple double. The finish made it worth sitting through a game full of uninspired defense... Read more »

Rose continues his torrid stretch as Bulls top 76ers

Rose continues his torrid stretch as Bulls top 76ers
Derrick mentioned he had a chip on his shoulder about this game after the Bulls beat Cleveland, he came out and played like it. Rose dominated the game early, hit the key basket late, and carried the Bulls to victory yet again... Read more »

Have the Bulls met mid term expectations?

Have the Bulls met mid term expectations?
The Bulls head into all-star weekend with a record of 27-8, third in the NBA behind Oklahoma City and Miami based on having one more loss. There have been plenty of reasons to be happy with the Bulls present positioning or disappointed with it so far. Despite a glowing record, the season itself has had plenty of ups and downs...

Would you trade Deng and Brewer for Melo?

Let's ignore the fact that swapping Melo + Chandler for Howard + Turkoglu makes a world more sense for them and probably works for Orlando as well. Let's also ignore the fact that the Knicks almost certainly say no to this trade. If this were on the table, and you had to live with it contractually and on the court do you do it... Read more »

Bulls vs Nets 3pm on WGN
The New Jersey Nets will stroll into the United Center to take on the (presumably) Roseless Bulls. The Nets don't appear to be much of a threat, but with Marshon Brooks back in the lineup and the potential return of Brook Lopez, they have potential to be a larger threat than their record would indicate...

Bulls beat the Celtics behind big nights by Boozer and Deng
When the Celtics built a decent lead early in the second quarter, the Bulls found themselves bailed out by everyone's favorite whipping boy. Carlos Boozer came to play tonight.
