April 2nd, 2013 at 7:04 PM
Despite the end of the NBA regular season rapidly approaching a myriad of questions swirl around the Chicago Bulls. What's going on with Derrick Rose? Will he return at all and when? What playoff positioning does Chicago end with and how well will they do in the playoffs? A few...
Taj Gibson’s Foul on Lebron James Upgraded to a Flagrant Foul
March 30th, 2013 at 9:22 PM
According to a recent article by Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinal, the NBA front office apparently believes Lebron James was "correct" in his assertion that a foul committed by Taj Gibson was actually a flagrant foul. The change was made to a call late in the first quarter...
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...
Bulls Fall Short to King Lebron James and the Mighty Miami Heat
February 21st, 2013 at 10:38 PM
Well, we made it through the trade deadline alive and without any major moves, much to the displeasure of Derrick Rose’s brother Reggie, who complained publicly that the Bulls weren’t making an effort to surround his brother with championship caliber players. Rose, who tore his ACL last May, has been practicing...
Derrick Rose’s Groin Still an Issue; Should Chicago Bulls Make a Run at Derek Fisher?
March 19th, 2012 at 11:55 AM
***PHOTO1*** This condensed season has not been kind to Derrick Rose's body. He missed five games earlier this season with a toe injury. Then he suffered through back spasms and missed five more games. Now he's dealing with a strained groin that has already forced him out of three games...
Chicago Bulls Prepare for Grueling Nine-Game Road Trip
January 28th, 2012 at 9:58 PM
With Disney on Ice coming to town for the next two weeks, the Chicago Bulls will take to the road for a grueling nine-game road trip that begins in Miami on Sunday and finishes in Boston on Jan. 12. For those that are counting, that's nine games in 15 days,...
Chicago Bulls’ Joakim Noah Says He’s Healthy and Ready to Go
December 6th, 2011 at 8:19 AM
Chicago Bulls center Joakim Noah signed a five-year, $60 million extension before last season started. And at the beginning of the year, he backed up the Bulls' belief in him by playing the best basketball of his career. However, the rest of Noah's season was injury plagued, and he spent the...
2010-11 Chicago Bulls Player Grades: Kyle Korver
August 19th, 2011 at 9:30 AM
***PHOTO1*** My expectations for Kyle Korver might have been unrealistic going into the season. After watching the Bulls struggle mightily from long range in 2009-10, I viewed Korver as the answer to the Bulls' shooting woes. Unfortunately, that didn't necessarily come to fruition. And I blame Tom Thibodeau and the coaching staff...
This is the End: Miami Heat 83 – Chicago Bulls 80
May 27th, 2011 at 10:11 AM
A dream ride of a season for the Chicago Bulls has come to an end. The Miami Heat rallied from a 12 point deficit late in the fourth quarter in a stunning 83-80 victory in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals. LeBron James and Dwyane Wade keyed an 18-3 run...

Will the Real Derrick Rose Please Stand Up?: Chicago Bulls at Miami Heat Game 4 Preview
May 24th, 2011 at 8:07 AM
There are plenty of things the Chicago Bulls have to do better if they want to have any chance of defeating the Miami Heat in Game 4. For one, the defense needs to regain the form that has made it so vaunted up to this point. They got picked apart...
Bosh’d: Miami Heat 96 – Chicago Bulls 85
May 23rd, 2011 at 9:47 AM
I'm done (for now) taking shots at Chris Bosh. After dominating the Chicago Bulls for 34 points in the Miami Heat's 96-85 victory in Game 3 last night, I'm running out of reasons to hate on him. He's still a soft rebounder, but his offensive display last night was incredible (and...
The Empire Strikes Back: Miami Heat 85 – Chicago Bulls 75
May 19th, 2011 at 1:51 AM
The Chicago Bulls were right there. Despite playing horrible all night, the Bulls had battled back from an 11 point third quarter deficit to tie the game at 73 with just over seven minutes left. But with the game hanging in the balance, LeBron James took over while the Bulls...
I Wanna Rock: Miami Heat at Chicago Bulls Game 2 Preview
May 18th, 2011 at 1:05 PM
After what has seemed like an eternity since the Chicago Bulls demolished the Miami Heat in Game 1, the Eastern Conference Finals will finally resume tonight (OPRAHHHHH!!!!!!). For some reason there's an even longer layoff between tonight's game and Game 3 (what, is Oprah having a surprise show at American Airlines Arena?),...

May 16th, 2011 at 12:20 AM
Despite having the best record in the NBA, the Chicago Bulls came into their Eastern Conference Finals series against the Miami Heat as "underdogs." Vegas favored the Heat to win the series, and 11 out of 14 experts from ESPN picked the Heat to win the series. After the Bulls...

May 14th, 2011 at 10:27 PM
The Chicago Bulls and Miami Heat will face off in the Eastern Conference Finals starting Sunday at the United Center. It's been a long journey and there are a ton of great story lines. I think to truly preview this series right, we have to take a little trip back...
