It's official - Bulls own the Raptors

It's official - Bulls own the Raptors
While I haven’t been able to confirm whether it’s a cash deal or if they took out a mortgage, the Bulls now officially own the Toronto Raptors. Playing without Pau Gasol (knee), Mike Dunleavy (stomach virus) and Derrick Rose (who keeps track after all these years), the Bulls were still able to go north of... Read more »

The first Gasol triple-double as a Bull – and the ninth Gasol triple-double of his career –... Read more »

Gasol, McDermott give big "FU" to Bulls fans in 116-106 Bulls win over Toronto
Doug McDermott scored a career-high 30 points, Derrick Rose had 26, and Pau Gasol (18 points, 11 rebounds, 9 assists) fell one assist shy of a triple-double as the Bulls broke their 5-game losing streak with a convincing 116-106 win over the Toronto Raptors Friday night at the United Center.

Bulls lose in Cleveland as expected, but let's have some fun, intelligent Bulls fans

Bulls lose in Cleveland as expected, but let's have some fun, intelligent Bulls fans
The Bulls traveled to Cleveland for their first game after the All-Star break, and as any sane person would have expected, they lost. Final score Cleveland 106, Bulls 95. Disappointing at first glance, but considering the fact that Vegas had the Bulls as 12.5 to 13.5 point underdogs, the team actually performed a little better... Read more »

    Bullsville

    Don Ellis started covering sports professionally when he was 15. The same year (1980), as a student assistant at Seeger Memorial High School in West Lebanon, IN, he was one of the first in the world to use, study and implement analytics in basketball. He attended Daytona State College and Ball State University, and some of his past credits include InsideHoops (NBA Runaround: The NBA According to Ellis) and ESPN Florida (The Florida Sports Reporters), where he was fortunate enough to work with many rising stars, including NFL Network's Dan Hellie, Redskins coach Jay Gruden, Magic radio and TV personality Dante Marchitelli, and WSB-TV (Atlanta) Sports Director Zach Klein. In addition to running the Bullsville blog and officiating basketball, baseball and football for the KHSAA, he is also a bass player and vocalist who writes and produces music in his spare time (you may remember his internet hit "I Hate Eddy Curry"). He's a 3rd-generation Cubs fan, a Bulls fan since the days of Van Lier and Sloan, and a life-long New England Patriots fan. He's seen Primus 9 times and thinks Les Claypool walks on water. By far his greatest accomplishment is being a father of three and grandfather of one.
