Bulls lose to the Raptors, 99-89

That didn’t go so well. Through the first 30 minutes of this game, the Bulls offense took everything the Raptors defense gave them. And the Raptors defense gave the Bulls everything, because, well, they’re the Raptors defense. Going into tonight’s game, Toronto had given up the most points per game in the NBA, as well...

Bulls lose to Nuggets, officially, but not spiritually

Balls to Tom Thibodeau. Did the Bulls just play “stifling” defense? They did. The Nuggets had the third best offense in the NBA (per Knickerblogger) going into this game. But they were made to work awfully hard by a resolute Bulls defense that denied anything easy all night long. (Transition excluded.) The start of the... Read more »

Bulls beat Bucks when they probably shouldn't have done

Tyrus Thomas didn’t play tonight, but given how bipolar the Bulls were, you might not have known it. They beat the Bucks by the truly underwhelming score of 83-81, in a low standard game that a neutral would have phoned up to complain about. It wasn’t pretty, but it was enough. The first half of...

Bulls lose, or something

The Bulls didn’t play last night. Simply didn’t happen. No. Nope. Non. Nein. Some people may tell you that they were blown out by the Celtics, losing by roughly 98 points in a lifeless (inter)national TV debacle. Those people are lying. The Bulls didn’t play. Instead, they had the night off. Brad Miller led the... Read more »

Bulls totally beat the Spurs

The Bulls just beat the Spurs. Did you know that was going to happen? I didn’t know that was going to happen. But it did. And they looked damn good doing it. The Bulls won 92-85, shooting only 41% from the field, but grabbing 52 rebounds in the game, and holding the Spurs to only... Read more »

Bulls end preseason with another win

The Bulls beat the Wizards tonight 93-70, closing out their preseason with a 6-2 record. One of the losses was to Orlando, who have been an absolute machine this preseason (8-0, with a huge 37 point win tonight over the Hawks, 123-86), but even with those two losses, the Bulls the third best preseason record...

Bulls beat Timberwolves, 94-90

This…..wasn’t the highest standard game ever. The Bulls beat the Timberwolves for the second time in a week, and advanced to a tidy 5-1 record in the preseason. That’s the good news. The bad news is that they weren’t very good tonight. Then again, the Timberwolves were worse. Here’s the report card. Tyrus Thomas was... Read more »

Noah and Gibson beast the Bucks in 87-86 win

The fans at the UC were treated to a tense game even if it wasn’t all that scoring.  They got to seem some excitement out of our frontcourt which is a relative rarity, and Brandon Jennings put on a show for the Bucks.   Here’s my report card for the night: Joakim Noah – A++, Noah... Read more »
