That’s better. All of Knicks nation woke up Monday morning with a pep in their step after the team responded to their 0-3 road trip with a near-wire-to-wire victory over the undefeated Chicago Bulls on Sunday night, leading by as much as 25 in a comfortable, feel-good victory. Now, 24 hours later, they finish up […]

On Friday, the Knicks (3-3) lost by ten in Chicago to finish a three-game, three-loss road trip. Tonight, they opened a seven-game homestand with a rematch versus those same Bulls (5-1). Once again, the visitors pushed the pace, but the home team countered with blistering shooting (13-of-21 3PT), a 19-point first-quarter from Jalen Brunson, and […]

The Knicks (2–3) return to the Garden for a rematch against the Bulls (5–0). Our heroes hope to erase a three-game losing streak and the sting of Friday’s defeat in Chicago. In that one, Josh Giddey plastered them for a career-high of points, while New York’s bench squad could barely tie their sneakers. Tonight, expect […]

The Chicago Bulls will be without their second unit leader on Sunday night.
Facing off against the New York Knicks for the second consecutive game, the team has officially ruled out Ayo Dosunmu . The guard is dealing with a quad contusion and is said to be day-to-day, per The Athletic’s Joel Lorenzi. Dosumu is fresh off scoring a season-high 22 points with 9 assists on 8-10 shooting from the field in the team’s Halloween victory over the Knicks.
Dosunmu’s next chance to play will be ...

Rookie Noa Essengue did not travel with the Chicago Bulls to New York this weekend.
In the hours leading up to the team’s second consecutive matchup with the Knicks, the team announced that Essengue has been sent to the G League . This is the first time the No. 12 overall pick has been assigned to the Windy City Bulls this season.
The Bulls will return to Chicago following Sunday night’s game for a meeting with the 76ers before going on the road for battles with the Bucks and Cavalie...

*steps outside, breathes in the crisp November air, plops on a Chicago Bulls hat, takes a sip of coffee, grabs a basketball, drains a backward halfcourt shot.*
What a beautiful day to go undefeated!
Sitting alone at the top of the Eastern Conference, the Chicago Bulls head to Madison Square Garden for Round 2 against the New York Knicks. To the surprise of many, they were in complete control against the reigning Eastern Conference Finals squad nearly the whole game. Everything that...

The New York Knicks (2–3) return to MSG tonight for a rematch with the Chicago Bulls (5–0), eager to avenge Friday’s 135–125 loss in Chicago. The stakes are high. To lose four straight, including back-to-backs against a team that New York vastly outclasses on paper would add extra insult to the humiliation. Friday’s loss exposed […]

The last time the Chicago Bulls were 5-0, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen were headed full steam ahead toward their fifth NBA championship. Ridiculous.
On the one hand, I have no clue what is going on. The Chicago Bulls were viewed by almost everyone as one of the NBA’s retooling bottom feeders. They were projected to finish with a win total in the low 30s and possibly miss the Play-In Tournament altogether. In that sense, a 5-0 start is absolutely mind-boggling, especially when we co...

The Bulls won AGAIN . That’s 5-0 to start the season. Are they just, like, a good basketball team? Should I be paying more attention to them?
If the Dodgers go on to win this World Series, that 9th inning from Game Six is going to haunt Blue Jays fans forever. Two freak plays – flukes, mistakes, whatever you want to call them – turned what could’ve been a suddenly tie game into a loss. One, not the Blue Jays fault and couldn’t have been avoided. One that certainly could have. Both worki...

I’m going to be completely honest with all of you, my wife and I hosted our annual Hocus Pocus Watch Party tonight. In other words, the Chicago Bulls’ victory over the New York Knicks was designated for the second screen. I was in and out of tuning as I finished off making my famous pumpkin mac & cheese and mixing together apple cider old old-fashioned for our nearly 20 guests. So I’m not going to sit here and pretend I have an educated take on this game. Instead, I will sit down tomorrow morn...

This Halloween, the New York Knicks (2-3) finished a three-game road trip with an Emirates Cup game against the Chicago Bulls (5-0). They started strong behind OG Anunoby, Karl-Anthony Towns, and zippy ball movement from Jalen Brunson and Mikal Bridges. Once Josh Giddey ignited Chicago’s offense, however, the Bulls sunk their teeth in and held […]

The Knicks and Bulls open their NBA Cup campaigns on opposite trajectories — New York looking to rebound from a shaky 2-2 start, and Chicago riding an unexpected 4-0 surge. The Knicks will need sharper shooting and better defensive focus to hand the Bulls their first loss, but Chicago’s balanced offense and elite perimeter defense […]

We’re about to find out if the Chicago Bulls are a trick or a treat. See what I did there?
Off to an impressive 4-0 start to begin the year, things are about to ramp up even more for this young and dynamic Bulls team. To be clear, they deserve credit for the squads they have taken down thus far. Detroit, Orlando, and Atlanta were seen as up-and-coming teams that were expected to finish well above Chicago in the standings. A win over a 1-4 Sacramento team may feel less worthy of praise, bu...

For the Chicago Bulls to start the season 4-0, they needed an unsung hero. Tre Jones has filled that role.
With Coby White sidelined to begin the year, head coach Billy Donovan needed someone he could trust to fill the hole in the starting lineup. He opted for Jones on opening night against the Detroit Pistons, and all the 25-year-old has done since is prove him right.
The guard has averaged 12.5 points, 7.5 assists, and 3.5 rebounds over his first four games of the season. While que...

Something about Matas Buzelis’ performance on Wednesday night felt poetic.
The franchise welcomed both Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan back into the United Center. The two multi-time All-Stars were once seen as pillars of an organization in win-now mode. Yet, their best season came in 2021-22 when they finished 46-36 and lost in a swift five games to the Milwaukee Bucks in the first round. This also happened to be the last time the team started 4-0, which happens to be the Chicago Bulls’ cu...

The Chicago Bulls keep turning heads.
Entering the season with their sights set largely on development, expectations for the organization were rather low. Many sportsbooks and analysts projected the team to finish with a win total in the low 30s, presumably ending their Play-In Tournament streak by missing the postseason altogether. To be sure, we can’t rule this out only four games into the regular season, but early indications are that the Bulls could be on the brink of their best seaso...
