In Chicago, Generation Z sees the Bulls getting a lot of W's in the NBA playoffs.

Already strong out of the gate with two wins against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Bulls look poised to advance to the second round of the NBA playoffs.

We asked some of the youngest - yet NBA savvy - fans of the Bulls to tell us about the team's playoff chances and their favorite player on the current roster (see attached video).

Jack Richtman, 8, of Downers Grove believes the Bulls are going to the championship with the help of his favorite player, backup point guard Aaron Brooks.

"They're just a really good team and have a lot of good players - that is why I think they will make it."

Casey Fikis, 7, of Hampshire says his favorite player is guard Jimmy Butler because likes how he plays.

Not surprisingly, each of those players was a key contributor in the Bulls' first two playoff wins.

Game 3 is Thursday night in Milwaukee.
