Lowry’s Miami Heat outlasted DeRozan’s Chicago Bulls in a 107-104 affair, but their close friendship remains as strong as ever.</p><p>After the Bulls loss, DeRozan was asked about his bond with his former Raptors brother. The 4-time All-Star tried to sum up their unbreakable connection as simply as he could.</p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/KCJHoop/status/1464811505384316931">Via</a> K.C. Johnson:</p><blockquote>Asked DeMar DeRozan if he can put into words his bond with Kyle Lowry. He said he couldn’t. Then he did, eloquently:”If my mom had another son, it’d be Kyle” If his mom had another son, it’d be me. That’s as simple as I can put it. That’s how close we are. That’s what it is to me,” said DeRozan of his former Raptors running mate.</blockquote><p>DeRozan led the way for the Bulls with 28 points and seven rebounds. Lowry was effective as well, notching 19 points, five rebounds, and six assists as his Heat struck first in their seasons series.</p><p>Both Lowry and Derozan played nine seasons for the Raptors, with their stints overlapping for six successful seasons up north. But now they play for warring franchises who both have <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bulls-news-demar-derozan-alex-caruso-sound-off-after-tough-loss-vs-heat/">serious aspirations to rule the Eastern Conference.</a></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Well, here’s a few Chicago fans doing a “Fire Nagy!” chant. In a Bulls game. Yes, that’s how badly these fans want Matt Nagy fired and gone from their city.

Those are some harsh words coming from a tough-as-nails fanbase. Ask any sensible Bears fan, though, and they are likely more inclined to agree with the angry Chicago mob in United Center.

Trubisky is widely-known as a draft bust today, but many people think that if he had landed in any other franchise than the Bears, he would’ve found more success.</p><p>Recently, Nagy has come under fire for his handling of Justin Fields. The Bears head coach had been reluctant to put their prized rookie in a starting position, only doing so when veteran quarterback Andy Dalton got hurt in Week 2. This notion was exacerbated when recent reports showed that Matt Nagy <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bears-news-justin-fields-bombshell-highlights-chicagos-dysfunction-as-matt-nagy-twists-in-wind/">didn’t make the decision to start</a> Justin Fields: rather, it was chairman George McCaskey who ordered the change.</p><p>Will the organization listen to the cries of this Chicago fanbase?</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He is an NBA writer and editor for ClutchPoints and Cavs Nation. Back in the day, while other kids were consumed by their toys and comic books, young Arlos was already thumbing through the pages of sports magazines.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">NBA</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>A little over a month into his first season with the Chicago Bulls, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/players/lonzo-ball/b5820a02">Lonzo Ball</a> is enjoying an unusual level of success while thriving as the team’s lead guard. As of writing, the Bulls hold a 13-7 record, which is good for second place in the Eastern Conference.</p><p>Ball’s road to Chicago is quite interesting. The expectations differed on each team he’s played for since 2017. He’s now tasked to orchestrate for a conference powerhouse. Prior to this season, Ball was tagged as a future piece for the New Orleans Pelicans. His stint with the Los Angeles Lakers was a different monster, though.</p><p>In an interview with <a href="https://uproxx.com/dimemag/lonzo-ball-interview-chicago-bulls/">Jackson Frank for Dime Magazine</a>, Ball recalled the pressure he had to live up to in Tinseltown.</p><blockquote>“This is my third team in five years and every team’s been a different experience for myself. Obviously, coming to L.A., I was a young kid with a lot of expectations put on me that I didn’t really live up to.”</blockquote><p>Lonzo Ball entered the league as the Lakers’ second overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft. He came in as a tall and dynamic guard whose playmaking reminded everyone of Jason Kidd and Magic Johnson. Of course, the Los Angeles hype train was quick to capitalize on these observations.</p><p>Unfortunately, the former UCLA standout was highly criticized for his inconsistent shooting at the time. The Lakers shipped him to New Orleans in the Anthony Davis package. Now, armed with a vastly-improved <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/balllo01.html">44%</a> clip from long distance, Lonzo Ball appears to be a long-term fixture in Chicago.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Bulls raced out to a double-digit lead in the second quarter and never looked back as they won handily, 123-88.</p><p>But the trip to Orlando was a homecoming for longtime Magic star Nikola Vucevic, who <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bulls-news-nikola-vucevic-reveals-true-feelings-toward-orlando-amid-return/">starred as their best player</a> for eight plus seasons before being traded for a package which included a big man swap for Wendell Carter Jr.</p><p>Carter was the lone bright spot for the Magic against the Bulls, posting 26 points, 10 rebounds, and two blocks while shooting 8-for-15 from the field. He also earned the respect and praise from Vooch after the game.</p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/KCJHoop/status/1464432792981446660">Via</a> K.C. Johnson:</p><blockquote>Nikola Vucevic sought out Wendell Carter Jr. postgame. Said he offered words of encouragement and praised him for working hard on his game: “I always liked his game even before when he was with the Bulls. I think he has a special future.”</blockquote><p>Carter Jr. is in his first full season with the Magic after his three in Chicago. He’s had modest career-high jumps of 12.3 points, 9.4 rebounds, and 2.4 assists. His best improvement has been his outside stroke, as he’s shooting a stellar 40.3% on 3.8 attempts per game – both career bests by a wide margin.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

After all, this is the first time he’ll be facing off against the Magic since he was traded to Chicago from Orlando. Because of that, the All-Star big man couldn’t help but reminisce about his former team.</p><p>Speaking with the Chicago Sun-Times, Vuvecic talked about his feelings towards the team that drafted him a year after his trade. <a href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/bulls/2021/11/25/22802224/bulls-nikola-vucevic-prepared-emotional-return-to-orlando-magic">He said</a>:</p><blockquote>“Yeah, it wasn’t a situation where they traded me out of nowhere… It was something that we discussed a lot and it was mutually agreed… A lot of it came from my communication with them, so it wasn’t a surprise for me… Never will I ever have any bad feelings toward Orlando. It will always be positive. It was time for the team to go in a different direction. It was time for something new to happen.”</blockquote><p>Vucevic was drafted by the Orlando Magic in 2011 with the 16th overall pick. There, he built a solid reputation as one of the better big men in the league, earning a few All-Star nods along the way. However, his performance just wasn’t enough to carry the team out of playoff purgatory, so he was eventually traded to the Bulls mid-season.</p><p>In his first full season with the new-look Bulls, Vucevic has been a solid presence for the team down low. He’s averaging a double-double of 13.7 points and 11.1 rebounds along with 4.3 assists, deferring to the dynamic duo of Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan. The Magic, on the other hand have embraced the tank, putting all their chips into rookie Jalen Suggs.</p><p>The Bulls’ matchup with the Magic will also be Nikola Vucevic’s <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bulls-news-nikola-vucevics-status-vs-rockets-after-bout-with-covid-19/">second game back</a> after dealing with COVID-19. Expect that night to be an emotional one for Vooch.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Bulls, the third-seeded team in the East, fell short on their road game against the 2-16 Rockets on Wednesday night and it was a crucial call halfway through the fourth quarter that ended up changing the course of the game which, to be quite frank, Donovan didn’t really understand.</p><p>The Bulls were down by five with over five minutes to go in the game when Ball knocked down a three in transition that would’ve cut the lead to a single possession. Thing is, the Bulls guard fell on the floor and subsequently hit Kevin Porter Jr. which forced the officials to call an offensive foul on Ball and <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPointsApp/status/1463715555483930626">waved</a> his three-pointer.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Bulls get the steal and Lonzo Ball hits a 3-pointer in transition. But the referee called an offensive foul on Ball for falling into the Rockets player.</p><p>Thoughts on this potential game-changing call? 🤔<a href="https://t.co/ayEnZwivkq" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/ayEnZwivkq</a></p><p>— ClutchPoints (@ClutchPointsApp) <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPointsApp/status/1463715555483930626?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">November 25, 2021</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>Donovan could not understand the call. The 56-year old coach explained that the call ‘did not make sense’ to him and mentioned that, based on what he saw, it was clearly wrong.</p><blockquote>“The call made zero sense to me,” Donovan said after the 118-113 loss (via <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/chicago/bulls/bulls-billy-donovan-confused-offensive-foul-call-lonzo-ball">NBC Sports)</a>. “Now, I’m not saying it made zero sense to me because I don’t agree with what they said. The way they explained it to me, and what I was able to see (on the in-arena cameras), did not make sense. So if I can get a different camera view, I can maybe understand what they’re talking about,”</blockquote><p>After the unsuccessful coach’s challenge, Houston ended up knocking down a huge three on the other end care of Danuel House Jr. which gave the home team a 102-94 lead and ultimately ran away with their second win this season.</p><blockquote>“It was such a big play in the game, that’s why I challenged it,” added Donovan “I lost the timeout, but I figured it was three points, potentially four if they would’ve reviewed it and he (Ball) would have been fouled. If it was a four-point play, it would have cut the lead to one,”</blockquote><p>Despite the return of big man <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bulls-news-nikola-vucevics-status-vs-rockets-after-bout-with-covid-19/">Nikola Vucevic</a>, the Bulls couldn’t take care of business on the road and ended the evening with their second back-to-back loss this season while the Rockets were able to snap their 15-game losing streak. Chicago has a chance to get back on track with another road game coming on Friday against the Orlando Magic.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

One of those health issues was the absence of Coby White as he recovered from offseason shoulder surgery.</p><p>While the Bulls have played well to begin the season, they’re still a bit lacking in the bench scoring department. White hasn’t been particularly good since he returned to the lineup, averaging 4.0 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists in five games. Those stats come in just 15.6 minutes per game as he works his way back into the rotation, and he’s shooting only 25.0% overall and 21.4% from 3-point range.</p><p>However, his one good game showed what kind of difference White can make if he’s playing well. In a recent victory over the New York Knicks, White caught fire in the second half and helped turn the tide of the game when it seemed like the Bulls were going to stumble. He finished with 14 points and a trio of triples off the bench.</p><p>It’s that kind of quick-strike scoring Chicago could really use as part of the reserve unit. The Bulls are last in 3-pointers attempted per game and 28th in bench scoring. White alone won’t totally fix those numbers, but he could help alleviate those issues and take pressure off top stars DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine.</p><p><i><b>*Watch NBA games LIVE with <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/nba/?irad=356361&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener noreferrer">fuboTV (click for free trial)</a>*</b></i></p><p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cash-considerations-a-chicago-bulls-pod/id1441491525?i=1000542922533" rel="noopener">On the latest episode</a> of <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cash-considerations-a-chicago-bulls-pod/id1441491525" rel="noopener">Blue Wire’s Cash Considerations</a>, Ricky O’Donnell talked about being patient with White as he tries to find his stride:</p><blockquote>“Coby White has played, what, five games now. His first three games, were, let’s be fair here, they were pretty brutal. Coby looked like he was lost out there. He was definitely taking a bit to get comfortable again playing basketball, and that makes sense. He had an injury at the start of the offseason that limited him from training, from practice. He had not played any live five-on-five, real, meaningful basketball during the course of the rehab.“Got thrown into the fire against the Lakers, the Blazers, then Denver, looked rough in those games. But we saw, I think, what could be the best version of Coby White, or the version the Bulls hope to get this year against the Knicks. In that game, he hit three big 3s in the fourth quarter, finished with 14 points. While people have sort of speculated about Coby’s place on this team long term, the roster right now could definitely use a fourth scorer … especially coming off the bench. … There’s times when the bench units come in … where it just seems like this team has no offensive punch and offensive firepower. Someone with Coby’s skill set is a pretty good fit here.”</blockquote><p>White is too talented to stay this bad. Once he finds his rhythm, he should be an asset off the bench. Just how good he is could make a huge difference for the Bulls this season.</p><p>Listen to the entire Cash Considerations episode here:</p><figure class="op-interactive"></figure><p><i><b><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cash-considerations-a-chicago-bulls-pod/id1441491525" rel="noopener">Cash Considerations: A Chicago Bulls Podcast</a></b> is part of the <a href="https://bluewirepods.com/" rel="noopener"><b>Blue Wire Podcast Network.</b></a> The pod can be found on <a href="https://go.redirectingat.com/?id=66960X1516590&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/cash-considerations-a-chicago-bulls-podcast/id1441491525?mt=2&amp;xcust=___sb__p_22410235__t_w__r_blogabull.com__d_D" rel="sponsored nofollow noopener"><b>Apple Podcasts</b></a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/65aMgeJpkEhZmFuOkb27zK?si=-ZsZyL5US6CVI0sE1gqdRA" rel="noopener"><b>Spotify</b></a>, <a href="https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/jason-patt/cash-considerations-a-chicago-bulls-podcast" rel="noopener"><b>Stitcher</b></a><b>, </b><a href="https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9yc3MuYXJ0MTkuY29tL2Nhc2gtY29uc2lkZXJhdGlvbnM?sa=X&amp;ved=0CAMQ4aUDahcKEwiQxdG5o4vxAhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQBQ" rel="noopener"><b>Google Podcasts.</b></a></i></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Now in his first year away from LA, AC’s finally realizing just how much love the purple and gold get from the media.</p><p>In a recent interview with HoopsHype’s Bryan Kalbrosky, the Bulls star was asked about his heir apparent in the hustle department for the Lakers, Austin Reeves. Caruso said that he’s been seeing Reeves in some highlights, claiming it’s evident that LA gets a ton of love from social media.</p><p><a href="https://hoopshype.com/lists/alex-caruso-los-angeles-lakers-chicago-bulls-lonzo-ball-austin-reaves/">Via</a> HoopsHype:</p><blockquote>“I’ve seen a little bit! It’s apparent now – I didn’t realize this when I was on the Lakers – but social media shows <i>all </i>of the Lakers highlights. [Laughs] I didn’t think that was true until I got another team.”</blockquote><p>Thanks to those extended Lakers clips, Caruso has been able to appreciate what Austin Reeves has been doing for LA. The man knows a thing or two about being a “glue guy”.</p><blockquote>“But he appears to be one of those good glue guys that winning teams need. I think he’s a lot farther along than I was during my first year in the league. I think we have the same mindset of getting better and working hard. Hopefully, he can stick around.”</blockquote><p>Alex Caruso still <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-alex-caruso-gets-epic-tribute-from-la-fans-in-return-to-staples-center/">gets plenty of love</a> with the Bulls. It’s not like Chicago is a small market by any means. But the Lakers fandom is unlike any other in the NBA, and he’s now more cognizant of that fact than ever.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

But, the Montenegrin is contributing in other ways, grabbing 10.9 rebounds and dishing out 4.3 assists.</p><p>Although he is a starter, the Bulls haven’t exactly missed him. They currently sit at the top of the Eastern Conference with an impressive 12-6 record and have gone 4-3 without him, including big wins over the Lakers and Clippers.</p><p>Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan are proving to be one of the best duos in the league, both averaging over 25 points per game, which is top-10 in the Association. If Vucevic can find his scoring touch and get back to averaging closer to 20 per night like we’re used to seeing, it’s going to be scary hours in Chicago.</p><p>Tony Bradley has been starting in Vooch’s place, but he’s offered limited production for the Bulls, failing to score over eight points in seven starts since Vucevic went on the shelf.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
