A Weird Winning Week, Nikola Vucevic Calls Team “Soft,” A Josh Giddey Making History, and Other Bulls Bullets

The Chicago Bulls just had one of the most frustrating winning weeks I can remember. Beat a Denver Nuggets team that was 10-2 and second in the West. Blow a 21-point lead to the banged-up Trail Blazers in 9 minutes before hitting a game-winning buzzer-beater. Get slapped in the face by the Miami Heat for the zillionth time. Narrowly avoid becoming the Washington Wizards’ second win of the 2025-26 season. Somehow, someway, the Bulls went 3-1 over these four games and sit at 9-7. Nothi...

It’s Time for the Trail Blazers to Change Uniforms

Love, Blazers Stand Tall in Crunch Time to Overcome Warriors

The Portland Trail Blazers are big on numbers in the 2025-26 season. Number of shots, rebounding numbers, points off of turnovers…Portland doesn’t feature NBA players as much as athletic accountants.

The Portland Trail Blazers will look to break out of their rough patch tonight as they face the Golden State Warriors on the road.

Deni Avdija Getting Recognition for Trail Blazers Defense, Pace

Too Close for Comfort, Three-Point Uptick, Veteran Leader Vooch, Dalen Terry(!), and Other Bulls Bullets

In the wise words of Horton Hears a Who, “a win is a win … no matter how ugly.” It goes something like that, right? NIKOLA VUCEVIC GAME-WINNING BUZZER BEATER ALERT!! Let’s be honest, the Chicago Bulls didn’t deserve to win that game. They let an inferior Portland Trail Blazers team – with multiple rotation players on the injury report – erase a 21-point lead over the final 9 minutes of action. Struggling to close things out against superstars is one thing. Strugg...
