The Chicago Bulls suffered their worst and most deflating loss of the season, a 104-90 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday. True to the nature of head coach Jim Boylen, the team has scheduled a Thanksgiving Day practice in Portland, as well as a holiday team dinner to follow.

Boylen admitted the Bulls are still looking to find themselves and their identity after losing what was a tie game with 1:48 left in the third quarter.

“I think at times we're very confident, I think at times we struggle with that,” said Boylen after the game, according to K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago. “I think that's what young teams do. And I go back to consistency. You know, we're looking for consistency.

““We had some really good moments tonight, again, and we battled. It was a physical, hard-fought game. They made some plays at the end that we didn't. And that was the difference.”

Zach LaVine went off for 36 points, but he had little help  besides backcourt partner Tomas Satoransky, with all other 11 players unable to rack up double figures scoring.

“You just go to work the next day, that's all you do. You go to work the next day,” Boylen said of what's next. “There's no shame in this game tonight. We played hard and we competed and we battled and we're gonna do the same thing, we're gonna practice tomorrow, we're gonna have some turkey and we're gonna play Friday… This is not the defining moment of our season. We're gonna keep playing.”

True to Boylen's word, the Bulls will indeed go to work on Thursday, on the road, making the most of their time away from the Windy City with a holiday dinner to bring them together.

It will take more than team camaraderie however, as the Bulls are 3-7 in their last 10 games.
