The Chicago Bulls are sure hoping that Ayo Dosunmu gets the green light tonight. After exceeding expectations with a strong 5-0 start, the Bulls suffered their first loss of the season at Madison Square Garden on Sunday. Falling on the road to a Knicks team that is fresh off an Eastern Conference Finals appearance isn’t reason enough for this young and frisky group to hang their heads. Believe it or not, they weren’t going to go 82-0. With that said, a loss is a loss. The Bulls now h...

The Chicago Bulls will continue their toughest stretch yet when they welcome the Philadelphia 76ers into the United Center on Tuesday night. Suffering their first loss of the season to the New York Knicks on Sunday, the Bulls are hoping to avoid their first losing streak of the year against a fellow 5-1 team. Even if they are able to accomplish just that, however, dodging a losing streak could prove just as difficult over the next handful of games. The Bulls will hit the road for two stra...

If the Chicago Bulls want to avoid their first losing streak of the season, they will have to stop one of the most dynamic young backcourts in the NBA. The Philadelphia 76ers got off to an equally hot start to begin the season and come into tonight’s meeting at the United Center an identical 5-1. Now, it’s fair to argue that their competition has not been nearly as stiff as what the Chicago Bulls have seen over the first couple of weeks. Whereas the Bulls battled multiple teams projecte...

The New York Knicks (4-3) beat the Bulls last night at Madison Square Garden. Tonight, facing the young Washington Wizards (1-6) in the second of a back-to-back, you might have expected a sluggish start. And you would have been correct. After a sleepwalking through the first quarter, the Knicks found life in the second quarter […]

While there is a lot to like about the Chicago Bulls’ 5-1 start to the regular season, the play of Matas Buzelis remains near the top of the list. The development of the second year forward is arguably the most important storyline for this organization. The Bulls have been in obvious need of a true, high-impact star for years, and Buzelis has flashed the kind of two-way skills that suggest he could become that star. To begin the year, he has shown the growth many hoped to see after his fi...

After dropping three straight on the road—including Friday’s loss in Chicago—New York bounced back behind Jalen Brunson’s 31 points and OG Anunoby’s 21. Coach Mike Brown credited the team’s improved defense and rebounding, noting lessons learned from their […]

The Bulls, on the other hand, aren’t unbeatable anymore. Sorry, pals! Here’s what we heard after yesterday’s affair as we quickly transition to tonight’s matchup against […]

The Sixers are 5-1, have the second-best offense and sixth-best net rating in the NBA after six games — just as we all predicted. After taking care of business Sunday night in Brooklyn over the lowly Nets, the Sixers will stay on the road for a difficult back-to-back against the equally surprising Chicago Bulls (5-1) […]

That’s better. All of Knicks nation woke up Monday morning with a pep in their step after the team responded to their 0-3 road trip with a near-wire-to-wire victory over the undefeated Chicago Bulls on Sunday night, leading by as much as 25 in a comfortable, feel-good victory.

On Friday, the Knicks (3-3) lost by ten in Chicago to finish a three-game, three-loss road trip. Tonight, they opened a seven-game homestand with a rematch versus those same Bulls (5-1). Once again, the visitors pushed the pace, but the home team countered with blistering shooting (13-of-21 3PT), a 19-point first-quarter from Jalen Brunson, and […]

The Knicks (2–3) return to the Garden for a rematch against the Bulls (5–0). Our heroes hope to erase a three-game losing streak and the sting of Friday’s defeat in Chicago. In that one, Josh Giddey plastered them for a career-high of points, while New York’s bench squad could barely tie their sneakers. Tonight, expect […]

The Chicago Bulls will be without their second unit leader on Sunday night. Facing off against the New York Knicks for the second consecutive game, the team has officially ruled out Ayo Dosunmu . The guard is dealing with a quad contusion and is said to be day-to-day, per The Athletic’s Joel Lorenzi. Dosumu is fresh off scoring a season-high 22 points with 9 assists on 8-10 shooting from the field in the team’s Halloween victory over the Knicks. Dosunmu’s next chance to play will be ...

*steps outside, breathes in the crisp November air, plops on a Chicago Bulls hat, takes a sip of coffee, grabs a basketball, drains a backward halfcourt shot.* What a beautiful day to go undefeated! Sitting alone at the top of the Eastern Conference, the Chicago Bulls head to Madison Square Garden for Round 2 against the New York Knicks. To the surprise of many, they were in complete control against the reigning Eastern Conference Finals squad nearly the whole game. Everything that...

The New York Knicks (2–3) return to MSG tonight for a rematch with the Chicago Bulls (5–0), eager to avenge Friday’s 135–125 loss in Chicago. The stakes are high. To lose four straight, including back-to-backs against a team that New York vastly outclasses on paper would add extra insult to the humiliation. Friday’s loss exposed […]

The last time the Chicago Bulls were 5-0, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen were headed full steam ahead toward their fifth NBA championship. Ridiculous. On the one hand, I have no clue what is going on. The Chicago Bulls were viewed by almost everyone as one of the NBA’s retooling bottom feeders. They were projected to finish with a win total in the low 30s and possibly miss the Play-In Tournament altogether. In that sense, a 5-0 start is absolutely mind-boggling, especially when we co...

The Bulls won AGAIN . That’s 5-0 to start the season. Are they just, like, a good basketball team? Should I be paying more attention to them? If the Dodgers go on to win this World Series, that 9th inning from Game Six is going to haunt Blue Jays fans forever. Two freak plays – flukes, mistakes, whatever you want to call them – turned what could’ve been a suddenly tie game into a loss. One, not the Blue Jays fault and couldn’t have been avoided. One that certainly could have. Both worki...

I’m going to be completely honest with all of you, my wife and I hosted our annual Hocus Pocus Watch Party tonight. In other words, the Chicago Bulls’ victory over the New York Knicks was designated for the second screen. I was in and out of tuning as I finished off making my famous pumpkin mac & cheese and mixing together apple cider old old-fashioned for our nearly 20 guests. So I’m not going to sit here and pretend I have an educated take on this game. Instead, I will sit down tomorrow morn...
