Bulls Moving Forward

Merry halfway to Christmas, Chicago. Meet your present – Derrick Rose. In all likelihood this is the best present anyone has ever received for Jesus' half birthday. He's going to be a star – you can book it now. I could go further into that, but someone already has, and he's probably done more research than me, so let's move on. Which [read more...]

23 Reasons Derrick Rose Was a Good Pick For the Bulls

1- He's a scorer, averaging 15 points a game in his only season at the University of Memphis. That would have been third on the Bulls last season, but Rose's 48% shooting from the field would have tied him with Luol Deng for the team lead. 2- He's a passer, averaging five assists a game. Like any good player though, D-Rose [read more...]

My Coach Vinny

I'm in danger of being labeled a Chicago Bulls "yes-man." I was okay with the Doug Collins hire – though I famously warned all of you that deals are not done until they're done, and I want credit for that, dammit – and now I'm okay with the Bulls (officially) hiring Vinny Del Negro instead. In fact, I'm better than okay. I [read more...]

Coaching the Bulls

Last week it was a sure thing, as likely as John Daley super-sizing his Big Mac or Devin Hester cruising right by a tackler. Now it's over, with both sides saying that it just wasn't meant to be. It appears former Bulls coach Doug Collins will not become the next Bulls coach. After a week and a half of speculation, Collins [read more...]

Dig on Doug, Dude

Let me begin with a caveat – Doug Collins is not (yet) the head coach of the Chicago Bulls. Sure, I'm a realist. I know these stories saying that "the deal is in place" don't come from nowhere; I'm prepared to accept that Bulls GM John Paxson and the excitable Mr. Collins have an agreement in principle, and that in all [read more...]

Beasley v Rose

The Bulls lost a lot this season. They lost 49 of the 82 games they played. They lost two head coaches in the span of four months. And they lost a lot of respect by botching the chance to sign former Phoenix Suns coach Mike D'Antoni. Yet thanks to the NBA Draft Lottery that took place on last Tuesday, the [read more...]

Ten Years Later…

When was the last time you went on YouTube and watched some old Michael Jordan highlights? Can you remember the smile on your face when John Paxson's three beat the Suns in the 1993 Finals? Do you still consider Phil Jackson a Bull, or has his time with the Lakers adjusted your thinking? It has been ten years since the Bulls [read more...]

Reinsdorf Plays the Blame Game

The chairman has spoken. In an interview Monday night with the Chicago Tribune's K.C. Johnson, Bulls Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf didn't mince words in expressing his disapproval of Mike D'Antoni becoming the new head coach of the New York Knicks. "I'm disappointed in him," Reinsdorf said. "I don't know what else we could've done. He chose to go to New York knowing [read more...]

Bulls Season In Review - Part 4

Easy there, before diving into this one don't forget about Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3 of CSR's Bulls Season In Review. Jan. 15 - A 102-88 loss tonight to Orlando will drop the Bulls to 14-22, but still not out of the playoffs.
