There’s a bit to process from the Chicago Bulls in the first two weeks of the season. Let’s take a deeper look at what to like (and not like) about the first six games.
In the first three games of the season, the Chicago Bulls appeared to be on their way to an 82-0 season and the franchise’s seventh title without much problem at all.
After their 3-0 start, the Bulls lost three straight — including an embarrassing performance in a 111-94 loss to the Indiana Pacers this past Saturday — and sit at .500 through the first two weeks of the season.
For every Dwyane Wade triple made, there was a lapse on the defensive end to go with it. With every good pick-and-roll set with Rajon Rondo and Robin Lopez, there was a lack of effort on the defensive end from the Bulls’ new point guard.
There was plenty of good that came from the Bulls’ first two weeks, but there was also plenty of things not to like about the Bulls.
During this breakdown, we’ll alternate between things to like and not like about the first six games for the Bulls, including the Bulls’ implosion as of late on the defensive side of the floor.
