Bulls trade Derrick Rose to Knicks - here are your keys to the team, Mr. Butler

Bulls trade Derrick Rose to Knicks - here are your keys to the team, Mr. Butler
Derrick Rose has been traded. To the Knicks. Along with Justin Holiday and a 2nd-round pick, in exchange for Robin Lopez, Jose Calderon and Jerian Grant. Like Bullsville on Facebook My first thought when my uncle told me was “I can’t believe they did it”. Then I thought “there’s another GarPax criticism down the tubes”.... Read more »

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 »

Kirk Hinrich single-handedly delivers Mavs a 132-129 2 OT win over Bulls
Kirk Hinrich is a veteran. Kirk Hinrich should know better. Kirk Hinrich made every Bulls fan who can’t stand his game look like a genius tonight. The Bulls led the Mavericks 108-105 with 4.2 seconds left in regulation after Pau Gasol hit a pair of free throws. The Mavs were out of time outs, so... Read more »

Derrick Rose injures (fill in the blank)
Derrick Rose missed the second half of the Bulls’ 114-109 loss to the Nuggets in Denver on Tuesday. Yeah, I know, big surprise right? Let me first point out that my headline (and the following template) are stolen from a Facebook post by my buddy Paul M. Banks, the brains behind The Sports Bank: Become... Read more »

Nikola Mirotic should ask for a trade

Nikola Mirotic should ask for a trade
Nikola Mirotic paid a $3 million buyout so he could come to the NBA this season to play for the Bulls. He should either ask for a trade, or ask Tom Thibodeau to reimburse his expenses. Thibs is wasting away his rookie season, when he should be the runaway leader right now for Rookie of... Read more »

Thibs watches officials hand Kings a win over Bulls

Thibs watches officials hand Kings a win over Bulls
Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau must be a closet Sacramento fan, because he stood there and let the officials hand the Kings a victory over the Bulls Thursday night. At least Joakim Noah showed that he has a pair, picking up a well-deserved technical after getting called for his complete bullshit fifth foul on a Demarcus... 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.
