After splitting four home games last week, the 17-18 Chicago Bulls are hitting the road.
Over the next four days, Chicago will square off against three of the Eastern Conference’s top seven teams. On paper, their Saturday bout against the 13-23 Dallas Mavericks might look easy, but the Mavs’ greatest offensive strength is the Bulls’ biggest weakness: an oversized, athletic frontcourt.
Chicago was absolutely rattled by midgame injuries on two separate occasions last week.

Don’t look now, but the Portland Trail Blazers have won four out of their last five games. With the Utah Jazz on tap tonight, there’s a decent chance they can make it five of six. The Blazers haven’t gotten magically healthier. Their opponents were not suddenly terrible. Rather Portland appears to be shoring up a […]
After sinking all the way to No. 24 in NBA.com’s league-wide power rankings, the Portland Trail Blazers are on the upward climb again. NBA.com’s John Schuhmann moved Portland up four spots to No. 20 in the latest rankings. The leap was propelled by a 4-1 stretch over seven days that saw the Blazers notch wins […]
This has been a nightmare season for the Miami Heat’s Tyler Herro. And it hasn’t even fallen onto his performance, which has included poor defense and a few inefficient outings in the whopping six games he has appeared in. Instead, it’s the injuries. Which has been the story of Herro’s seven-year career in Miami. The […]

Surprisingly, the Bucks announced this morning that longtime team president Peter Feigin is stepping down from his position within the franchise, to be replaced by former Columbus Crew interim president of business Josh Glessing, a member of Haslam Sports Group. There had been no previous indication that Feigin, who isn’t of typical retirement age, was […]

Liddell, who’s been on […]
“Jaylen Brown is a rightful candidate for the Most Improved Player.” This statement comes from a simple question: who stepped up the most this season, and how did it happen? The Most Improved Player award is often associated with young breakouts or role players taking a leap. This season, however, Brown, one of the league’s […]
Kevin Durant believes the NBA’s 65-game mandate won’t last long. Or much longer. (Hopefully he’s right). The rule was implemented to prevent players from load managing their way to accolades and honors. (See Kawhi Leonard and LeBron James, of late). The downside is that players with legitimate injuries are also withheld from the same milestones, […]
The Jazz (12-22) roll into Portland tonight to face the Trail Blazers, (16-20) looking to get back to their winning ways. Or, perhaps, continue their tanking ways? Utah is 3-7 in their last 10, which is bad, but still amounts to 50% of the Indiana Pacers’ win total and 33% of the 4th-worst Washington Wizards’ […]
