Chicago Bulls (43-36) Vs Miami Heat (63-16) Preview: the Most Meaningless Heat/Bulls Game in 3 Years
April 14th, 2013 at 5:27 AM
The last time these two teams met a 27-game winning streak was on the line. The Bulls, who have become adept at breaking long winning streaks, snapped the Heat’s streak back on March 27 in Chicago just before snapping the Knicks 13-game winning streak last Thursday. However, they’ll have to...
Chicago Bulls 101 – Miami Heat 97: Game Grades
March 28th, 2013 at 10:00 AM
It's finally over. The Miami Heat's winning streak is finally over at 27 and joy to the world it came at the hands of the Chicago Bulls with a 101-97 victory. To be honest, I didn't really expect last night's win. In my game preview I openly admitted that I...
Chicago Bulls End Miami Heat’s Win Streak at 27 Games
March 27th, 2013 at 10:53 PM
After a hotly contested battle the Chicago Bulls found themselves celebrating a 101-97 win over the Miami Heat effectively ending the second longest win streak in NBA history. Unlike other games against Miami, the Bulls really downplayed the game. Players hardly talked about the streak and how they'd like to...
Chicago Bulls (38-31) Vs Miami Heat (56-14) Game Preview: Preventing History or Becoming Part of It
March 27th, 2013 at 10:00 AM
All season long, the rivalry between the Chicago Bulls and Miami Heat has lost quite a bit of the luster it had these past few years. After major roster upheavals and the obvious lack of Derrick Rose both games this season between Miami and Chicago just haven't been the same....
Miami Heat 86 – Chicago Bulls 67: Game Grades
February 22nd, 2013 at 10:00 AM
Welcome back to game grades. It's been a while but they're back. Sorry if that angered any of you. You'll see that the grades now have a new look to them. Rather than have two separate charts, I figured I should combine everything together to give it a cleaner and...
Chicago Bulls (19-14) at New York Knicks (23-12) Preview: Two Games Does not a Trend Make
January 11th, 2013 at 1:53 PM
I wish, more than almost anything, that I understood this team. I wish I could figure out how a team can beat the Miami Heat on the road, blow out the Cleveland Cavaliers at home and then cough up a double-digit lead at home for the second time this year...
Chicago Bulls (18-13) V. Cleveland Cavaliers (8-27) Preview: It’s a New Year
January 7th, 2013 at 3:09 PM
The Chicago Bulls are 2-0 in 2013.
It's hard to imagine a better possible start to the new year than the one we've gotten, especially after ending 2012 with an embarrassing home loss to the Charlotte Bobcats. Wins against the Orlando Magic — without Joakim Noah — and the Miami Heat,...
Chicago Bulls 96, Miami Heat 89: Taking Their Talents to South Beach
January 5th, 2013 at 1:53 PM
Raise your hand if you truly expected the Chicago Bulls to beat the Miami Heat on the road last night. You're lying, but congratulations to all of you.
This game came as a surprise to most people. The Bulls had been playing extremely poorly of late, with their only wins coming against...
Chicago Bulls 96, Miami Heat 89: Game Grades
January 5th, 2013 at 1:16 PM
After the recent string of bad games for the Chicago Bulls against the Houston Rockets, Washington Wizards, and Charlotte Bobcats, expectations for the first matchup with the Miami Heat game of the 2012-2013 season were colossally low. Many Bulls fans, myself included, were expecting a big loss especially with the...
Chicago Bulls (17-13) at Miami Heat (22-8) Preview: Get Out of the Kitchen
January 4th, 2013 at 12:53 PM
Well, ladies and gentlemen, the day is finally here. The day we have all been waiting for. LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and the Miami Heat take on Joakim Noah, Luol Deng, Derrick Rose Kirk Hinrich — *record scratch*
Oh boy.
Look, this is hardly the marquee matchup it would be if Derrick Rose...
Chicago Bulls (13-9) at Memphis Grizzlies (15-6) Preview: into the Lion—er, Bear’s Den
December 17th, 2012 at 12:00 PM
All right. Good news and bad news time, as the Chicago Bulls head to Tennessee to take on the Memphis Grizzlies.
The good news: Nate Robinson isn't starting anymore!
The bad news: Kirk Hinrich is.
We here at Bulls 101 have been very vocal in our criticism of Captain Kirk. He's not nearly...
Chicago Bulls 112, Phoenix Suns 106 (OT): Let’s Try This Again
November 15th, 2012 at 11:08 PM
All right. I've calmed down. I am now capable of discussing last night's game in a rational and coherent manner. Here goes nothing.
***PHOTO2***
With 24 hours between me and the end of the game, I've come to realize that my problem was not with the collapse itself, but rather how and...
Chicago Bulls (4-2) Vs. Boston Celtics (3-3) Preview: Teague Pass Alert
November 12th, 2012 at 1:15 PM
All right, Chicago. There's good news and bad news as the Chicago Bulls get set to take on the Boston Celtics.
Good news: The Bulls are 4-2 and get to play a Celtics team at home that has looked discombobulated for much of the early season.
Bad news: Who has two thumbs,...
Southeast Division 2012-2013 Season Preview: Let It Go, Guys, Let It Go
October 24th, 2012 at 7:00 AM
Hello there! For the second consecutive year, I am putting entirely too much effort into previewing the NBA season. Last year, I tried to cram everything into two parts — three, actually, if you include the preview for just the Bulls — but that was impractical and not particularly well organized. This...
What the Hell Do We Make of the Chicago Bulls This Year?
October 3rd, 2012 at 11:05 AM
If you've read pretty much anything we here at Bulls 101 have written about the Bulls offseason — or if you follow anybody on Twitter who is even remotely associated with the site — odds are you know we are not exactly pleased with what transpired in June and July....

NBA Releases Full 2012-2013 Schedule: Omer Asik Returns to United Center on Christmas Day
July 26th, 2012 at 7:28 PM
All right, the schedule's out. We know when and where the Bulls will be playing this year. Let's face it, though: After the events of this offseason so far, we pretty much know how the season will turn out. The Bulls, behind the genius of Tom Thibodeau, will compete and...
Chicago Bulls Stuck in Neutral as Other Contenders Improve
July 9th, 2012 at 3:17 PM
The Miami Heat have added Ray Allen for cheap. The Los Angeles Lakers have landed Steve Nash in exchange for draft picks. The Brooklyn Nets have acquired Joe Johnson and are possibly on the verge of getting Dwight Howard for very little. Countless other teams have made moves to bolster their...
Omer Asik Offer Sheet: to Match or not to Match?
July 5th, 2012 at 8:36 PM
***PHOTO1*** It's been a few days since Chicago Bulls restricted free agent Omer Asik and the Houston Rockets came to terms on a three-year, $25.1 million deal, and I'm still not totally sure what the right call would be here. My initial reaction was "no way in hell do the Bulls...
Chicago Bulls 2011-12 Player Review: Rip Hamilton
June 20th, 2012 at 7:23 AM
After the disappointing defeat at the hands of the Miami Heat in the 2011 Eastern Conference Finals, pretty much everybody knew the Chicago Bulls would be looking for an upgrade at shooting guard. The trio of Keith Bogans, Ronnie Brewer and Kyle Korver did an admirable job in the regular season,...
