It's been a long time since the Chicago Bulls have entered December in a position as favorable as this. They're in first place by a game over the surprising Indiana Pacers, their biggest threat to the division, the Milwaukee Bucks, have spent most of November east bound and down, and they actually finished the dreaded circus trip with a winning record of 4-3. Usually, the … [Read more...] about Rose, Bulls About to Elevate Another Level as Boozer Returns

Watch Derrick Rose’s New Powerade Commercial (Video)
The Chicago Bulls budding superstar is back with a new endorsement. Derrick Rose, one of the best young point guards in the NBA's Eastern Conference teamed up with Ken Jeong for an Adidas ad released last month. Now he's produced a spot for Powerade. Big ups to Docksquad Sports, a fellow made man in the Chicago Sports Mob for alerting us on this: … [Read more...] about Watch Derrick Rose’s New Powerade Commercial (Video)
What’s up with the Bulls Shooting Guard Options?
I never thought the Chicago Bulls would miss Kirk Hinrich this much. But four games into the NBA season, (that means we're 1/20th of the way through the season already) you can see how he mattered more than we thought he did last summer. Keith Bogans, the second oldest guy on the Bulls behind Kurt Thomas, is the starter at the shooting guard position. Two new wings imported … [Read more...] about What’s up with the Bulls Shooting Guard Options?
Maybe the Bulls Will Start Making some 3s Now?
Last season the Chicago Bulls finished dead last in the NBA in three point field goal percentage. In the summer they went out and got Kyle Korver from Utah. All he did was lead the league in three point shooting percentage. Actually he broke the NBA season record for three point percentage, with a .536 eclipsing that of former Bull Steve Kerr and his .524 in 1994-95. Problem … [Read more...] about Maybe the Bulls Will Start Making some 3s Now?
Deng possibly the missing piece in Bulls puzzle after all?
Luol Deng's 39 points on Monday night can not be ignored. He's the X-factor. If Deng shines this season or even comes close to the potential the Bulls envisioned when they handed him a contract potentially worth up to $80 million, Chicago has a chance to seriously compete in the much-improved east. Ifs, ands, or buts aside, this is not the first time Deng has flashed his … [Read more...] about Deng possibly the missing piece in Bulls puzzle after all?
Carlos Boozer can be Robin to Derrick Rose’s Batman
So many failed experiments, and finally the Chicago Bulls have found their big man. By my count, I have ten failures by the organization at the power forward position: Elton Brand, Tyrus Thomas, Tyson Chandler, Drew Gooden, PJ Brown, Andres Nocioni, Michael Sweetney, Lonny Baxter, Antonio Davis and Donyell Marshall. Almost all were expected at one point to deliver the … [Read more...] about Carlos Boozer can be Robin to Derrick Rose’s Batman
Free Agency hypes start of NBA season
After one of the most publicized off-seasons in NBA history, the league's landscape seems to have gone through a bigger face lift than Joan Rivers. The anticipation for the start of the season has been building since Lebron and CBTV reporter Blane Harrington lit up expectations in the sunshine state, seemingly anointing the Heat the most hated team in the NBA. With Bosh and … [Read more...] about Free Agency hypes start of NBA season
Chicago Bulls cut Illini Legend Roger Powell
Well, we all saw this coming. "Rev Rog," Roger Powell, the starter at the four on the 2005 Illinois "Champaign Campaign" national runner-up team probably won't have a NBA career. Illini Nation loves him, but unfortunately he was still cut today. The Chicago Bulls announced waiver requests on Powell, and two more players that most NBA fans have never heard of: guards John … [Read more...] about Chicago Bulls cut Illini Legend Roger Powell
Don’t forget About Luol on Taj on Bulls Front Line
The biggest Chicago Bulls stories this NBA preseason have revolved around their bigs: the possibility of trading/and later the signing of Joakim Noah and the injury to splashy offseason acquisition Carlos Boozer. This has taken attention away from the other solid, if not spectacular players on Chicago's front line: small forward Luol Deng, the man with the most absurdly … [Read more...] about Don’t forget About Luol on Taj on Bulls Front Line
Quick reactions to the Milwaukee Bucks-Chicago Bulls preseason game
The biggest stories surrounding the Chicago Bulls this week are 1.) Joakim Noah's contract extension and 2.) Carlos Boozer's serious injury. I would like to get your take on the latter because the Milwaukee Bucks are a franchise that leaned on a very injury prone player for so long in Michael Redd. Obviously, that's not the case anymore, as the Bucks' are a team with a more … [Read more...] about Quick reactions to the Milwaukee Bucks-Chicago Bulls preseason game
