    Bulls can’t buy a bucket in ugly loss to Thunder Feb 24, 2013 12:00 AM
    The Bulls spent most of Sunday night in Oklahoma City trying to think of a number, between 0 and 20, that would represent an acceptable field-goal percentage. They were below 20 percent for most of the first half, dipped again after a four-minute dry spell in the third quarter and, needless to say, were smashed by the Thunder 102-72.

  • Why so many offer sheets this NBA off-season? Jul 7, 2012 12:00 AM

     
  • Another college basketball player with Chicago ties, Kentucky forward Anthony Davis, is expected to go No. 1 in the NBA draft. Derrick Rose was the top pick in 2008, and Chicago also boasts the No. 1 high school player in the country in Simeon’s Jabari Parker.

    Cream of the draft crop coming from Chicago Jun 27, 2012 12:00 AM
    For some reason, the Chicago area is producing fewer NBA players now than it has over the last 40 years. But when it comes to No. 1 overall picks, Chicago has dominated. Tonight, Englewood native Anthony Davis will be the fifth player selected first, joining Derrick Rose, Mark Aguirre, LaRue Martin and Cazzie Russell.

  • Miami forward LeBron James had a good game against the Bulls, as did Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, but they had nothing left for overtime. The Heat also got almost nothing from its bench. The Bulls bench outscored Miami’s reserves 47-7.

    Call it South Flaw-rida: Heat can’t win with 3-on-5 Apr 13, 2012 12:00 AM
    The Bulls understand that regular-season victories over Miami and home-court advantage in the playoffs dont mean much. But the Heat's mediocre play during the past six weeks and flip-flopping lineups suggest the three-star system isn't working.

     
  • Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau will reach 100 career wins faster than any NBA coach in history with a victory tonight in Orlando.

    Thibodeau one win from historic record Mar 18, 2012 12:00 AM
    If the Bulls beat Orlando on Monday, Tom Thibodeau's career record would improve to 100-30 and he'd surpass Avery Johnson for getting to 100 wins faster than any coach in NBA history. Thibodeau wasn't concerned, but his players had fun talking about the achievement.

     
  • Chicago Bulls forward Taj Gibson, left, guard Derrick Rose and center Joakim Noah huddle in the last minute of Sunday's second half against the Philadelphia 76ers.

    After losing in the Eastern Conference finals last season, the Bulls set out to find more help for Derrick Rose. On nights like these, the one-man gang doesnt seem like such a bad strategy.

  • Magic’s Dwight Howard looms over all-star festivities Feb 24, 2012 12:00 AM

  • Derrick Rose of the Bulls rests on the bench during Monday's game against the Atlanta Hawks.

    Should the Bulls be worried? Just ask the Magic May 2, 2011 12:00 AM
    There are a couple reasons the Bulls might feel inclined to write their Game 1 loss to Atlanta as a bad night that can be remedied. For starters, most of the damage was the result of two guys knocking down long, challenging jump shots.

  • Heat stars bound to figure this out eventually, aren’t they? Mar 6, 2011 12:00 AM
    The trend was established long before the Bulls arrived in South Florida this weekend. The Miami Heat’s three-superstar lineup has had no success against the NBA’s best teams and is ill-equipped to excel in close games. While the Bulls have guys like Joakim Noah and Luol Deng making the small plays that make a difference, the Heat has one star taking the final shot and two others wishing they had the ball.

     
  • San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker, bottom, gets Chicago Bulls guard Derrick Rose off his feet during the first half of Thursday's game.

    Rose obviously the NBA's midseason MVPFeb 21, 2011 12:00 AM

  • Jerry Sloan was the only NBA coach to eat dinner in the press room on game days.

    Salute to Sloan; why Bulls avoid boneheads Feb 13, 2011 12:00 AM
    It would be easy to call former Utah coach Jerry Sloan a true original, but there probably used to be hundreds of people like him. He just outlasted them all in the NBA He was humble and straightforward, but always an interesting interview. He was also very open and accommodating, the only head coach who would regularly eat dinner in the press room before the game.

     

  • Bulls know rough road lies ahead Jan 30, 2011 12:00 AM
    The Bulls need to be careful not to get satisfied with their 33-14 record, considering they'll play 11 of the next 14 games on the road. The trip begins Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers and coach Tom Thibodeau wants his player focused on nothing else but the next game.

    Thibodeau fits right in with Bears' defensive traditionJan 23, 2011 12:00 AM
    Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau might be the city's best defensive coordinator since Buddy Ryan. The job he has done with the Bulls is beyond impressive. Despite all the injuries, changing lineups and lack of an all-defensive team player on the roster, the Bulls have made a strong case to be the league's best defensive team.

     
  • Derrick Rose drives to the basket while surrounded by the Heat’s Joel Anthony (50) and Dwyane Wade (3) during Saturday’s game at the United Center. Rose finished with 34 points, and Wade had 33 as the Bulls prevailed, 99-96.
