The 2022-23 Chicago Bulls season is about to get underway and the franchise is looking for its first championship since the Michael Jordan Era. Is this the year for the next Bulls championship? The unfortunate answer for the Chicago faithful is that a Bulls NBA Finals trip is unlikely at the end of this season. […]

It’s difficult to believe that Chicago Bulls guard DeMar DeRozan has already played 13 seasons in the NBA. Now at 33 years of age, DeRozan is now filled with the wisdom of a grizzled veteran who’s been through tons of battles in the postseason. Entering his 14th campaign, DeRozan spoke with Marc J. Spears of […]

Rewind back to the summer of 2021. The Los Angeles Lakers were looking for a co-star to pair with LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

However, it would […]

The Los Angeles Lakers had all the opportunity to sign DeMar DeRozan last summer in free agency, but they dropped the ball. Instead, the organization went out and traded for Russell Westbrook.

Chicago Bulls star DeMar DeRozan is used to being doubted by NBA fans, and things don’t appear to have changed heading into the 2022-23 season. DeRozan had a message for his doubters ahead of his 14th NBA season, and he didn’t hold back when discussing the motivation he receives from his haters. Via Cody Westerlund […]

DeMar DeRozan was, at one point, the toast of the NBA last season. But could a rough end to his maiden Chicago Bulls campaign be the start of an early divorce? That’s not in the cards yet, but at least one rival Eastern Conference executive hinted to Heavy‘s Sean Deveney that the Bulls have their […]

The Toronto Raptors are in a rather weird position today in the NBA. On one hand, the team found incredible success last season behind the heroics of Scottie Barnes, Fred VanVleet, and Pascal Siakam. On the other hand… they don’t quite have the talent level to compete with the big dogs of the Eastern Conference. […]

The Chicago Bulls have two main priorities this summer: Lock down Zach LaVine for the long-term and find another frontcourt piece to improve their roster. According to Bleacher Report, the Bulls are still trying to shop Nikola Vucevic and although they do have interest in Utah Jazz big man Rudy Gobert, they aren’t set on […]

With their backs up against the wall on Friday night, the Miami Heat came through and delivered in a must-win Game 6 against the Boston Celtics in the East Finals.

The Chicago Bulls made the playoffs for the first time in 2017 this season, but unfortunately suffered a first-round exit at the hands of the Milwaukee Bucks.
